>MALE POWER FANTASY BAD FEMALE POWER FANTASY GOODWho the fuck is the target audience for this slop?I'm so fucking sick of this. Nothing is more cringe and unbelievable than a "powerful and intimidating" woman warrior. This game would have sold so much more if the main character was a man. Why the fuck are AAA devs such faggost?
>>722320320>target audience for this slopFat lonely LARPing single females with no future
>>722320320p̶e̶o̶p̶l̶e̶ male feminist game journos with faces like thisi know it's not a game journo face but best i could do in under 2mins
It's funny how all the complaints and shitposts about this game here are so surface level they barely even apply to the game at all. It's like people latched onto it for shit posting but there's literally nothing of note to shit post about because it's a fairly straightforward sequel to a good game that is also good, so all people care about is gender identity politics shit that has no relation to the game itself. The game never implies male power fantasy bad female power fantasy good and the series has had two games where it has had one male protag and one female protag.
>>722320608>sequel to a good game that is also goodlol
>>722320608>The game never impliesYou haven't played it so you're just making shit up like everyone else.
>>722320447I really doubt those things play games or that there is enough of them to make a modern AAA game profitable.
>>722320447>femalesI think you mean "females"
>>722320772Good point lol
>>722320608The main character being a woman is the biggest flaw, you faggot.No amount of le suspense of disbelief would make adult male warriors running away in terror from seeing a fucking woman with sword look cool. It just looks cringe and jarring no matter how much you try to spin it.
Clearing out copypasted bandit camps for 50 hours was boring when a man did it and it will still be boring when a woman does it.
>>722320608>It's funny how all the complaints and shitposts about this game here are so surface level they barely even apply to the game at all. It's like people latched onto it for shit posting but there's literally nothing of note to shit post aboutAverage thread on /v/
Japan actually had women household guard who fought in actual battles but I can assume that these fags just made the most kamalaslop tier garbage as humanly possible.
>>722321402
>>722320320Vote with your wallet, hold the line
>>722320320Even if that's all the game is there's not a single thing wrong with it. Women are allowed to have a female power fantasy. Women are allowed to have games where they can roleplay as a "powerful and intimidating" woman warrior. The game is not for you. Why do you care so much about other people getting to play with your toys for just a little bit?
>>722320901Its a POWER fantasy like OP said you stupid fucking faggot it is not supposed to be fucking realistic.God you are fucking apes
WHY ARE THE CAMERA ANGLES DURING DIALOGUES SO FUCKING AWKWARD
>>722321402>kamalaslopBro, move on, Jesus
>>722320608>Make successful game>Inject gender politics into the game by changing sex of main character in sequel >Inject even more by choosing this specific person to model the character after>Inject even more by having said actor tell chuds not to buy the game.Yeah... Damn /v/pol always making shit political
>>722320320>>MALE POWER FANTASY BAD FEMALE POWER FANTASY GOOD>Who the fuck is the target audience for this slop?... women?
>>722320608yeah I don’t own a gaystation and this game looks like typical AAA foid power fantasy slop so why even bother
>>722321864>Inject gender politics into the game by changing sex of main characterWomen exist>Inject even more by choosing this specific person to model the character afterShe's an actress doing her jobYou're politicising all of this by pretending it's inherently political even though it isn't.
>>722320320If you don't like it then don't play it, the market reacts to consumer demand
>>722321767>dumb frogposter faggot tranny makes a dumb tranny post
>1600s in Japan>Strong womanHistorians turning in their graves. They were so sexist and hierarchical, even butchers or guards and cleaners were barely seen as human. Women had so little power they weren't allowed the travel without a male.
>>722321402>who fought in actual Let me guess, according to feminist nu-historians.Reality is they were there to feed and nurse the men and for sexual relief.
>Play the game>Just a big empty open world>Gameplay is hardly interesting>Too many gimmick minigames to remind you "THIS IS WHAT THE PS5 CONTROLLER CAN DO WOW." that largely get in the way worse than RDR2>As if it's some sort of PS5 shilling game>Everything is a complete downgrade from the first game
>>722320320I'M A WOMAN HEAR ME ROAR
>>722322137Convenient. You happen to have not quoted the last part of mine post about the actors insufferable political beliefs..
>>722320320>Who's the target audience. Californian nu-"males"
>>722321874Yeah that's the thing. Female power fantasy does not exist. It's not natural. Jews have been trying to push this shit down our throats for a decade now but it's not working and will never work.Female fantasy is a man in shining armor or being the prettiest girl in the world. This is their nature.
>>722322326Weren't women not even allowed to dine on the same table with their hasands in east Asia until like the 1970s?
>>722320320People with autogynephilia
>>722321874Women play shit like LADS, Stardew, and the Sims they don’t have fantasies of overcoming adversity through pure strength and struggle like men do
>>722322326wow if only the plot somehow justified that
>>722321864only good thing is that they fired her.
>>722322518Yeah because that is political so I as willing to let you have that one. But if you insist that I comment on it, she's only responding to you in the first place and it's also not part of the actual game as such so it's still all on you.
>>722320320
>>722322568what about Joan d'arc
>>722322689This. /v/eddit has been brainwashed so hard that they believe that female power fantasy actually exists. It's all just part of the feminist/degeneracy propaganda.In reality, this shit is not appealing to anyone but normies continue to buy the slop because it's the latest slop and it's on the main page of the store.
>>722322781Fired her? She's the star. Why would they fire her?
>>722322839>what about [fringe over exaggerated feminist myth]Good goy.
>>722322841>this shit is not appealing to anyone but normies continue to buy the slopThen maybe you should direct your complaints to them instead of seething the devs.
>>722322959>seething the devs.seething about* the devs.
Weird how there are countless other games where women fight and shit but it's somehow a problem in this one
>>722323012Fighting games like street fighter are much worse offenders.
>>722323012Because it's the typical "IM A WOMAN HEAR ME ROARRRRRRR." bullshit.
>>722322923Haha yeah that first wave of feminism in the 1400s
>>722323064What does that actually mean, in regular English? Does it even have meaning or is it just a feeling that it invokes in you?
>>722320608>it's a fairly straightforward sequel to a good game in what ways is it better than GoT? I enjoyed the first one but im not aware what improvements they made to the formula
>>722323064If she had a big ass you'd be okay with that
>>722323145Less linear questlines and weapon variety are two that immediately come to mind
>>722323012Yeah does chun li or cammy humialiate male's scream and roar while acting they are better than every other male character. Yeah don't think so.
>>722323139The meaning is the game is very cringe worthy and embrassnig nobody cares about badly written power fantasy about women if you wanna make one at least make her hot and don't make unstoppable the truth is gamers don't want ugly women even redditors don't they just pretend.
>>722320320Threads like this make this entire board seem so off-putting. I don't want to discuss video games with incels who hate women and blame them for their own problems.
>>722323210Funnily enough even though she's considered one of the strongest women fighter, canonically in the story Chun li loses a lot, and can be considered a jobber (hyping up enemies so Ryu will look cool when beating them later)
>>722323012like im not going to defend the people injecting identity politics into GoY on either side, but I saw and heard far less complaining about pic related than GoY yet they are extremely similar in terms of their main storiesso what did goyflix do better than sony?
>>722323139It’s when a female character’s entire identity and personality are reduced to being “the strong woman”, often loudly announced or clumsily emphasized instead of shown naturally. Instead of developing her with nuance, writers just stamp “she’s strong and independent” on her and call it a day.It's boring and one dimensional. They're not written as anything else but strong, no growth, no quirks, no real humanity. Just strong female archetype in neon lights.Real strong female characters (Samus Aran, Lara Croft, Jill Valentine, Ciri, etc.) don’t need to shout their strength, it’s shown through their actions, resilience, and personality and they aren't strong to start off with. It gets built up, they go through hardship. >>722323157And to also say no I wouldn't care if she were fucking nude, she's written like a commifonians wet dream.
>>722322839What about her? She didn't take part in any battles, or fight at all. She was a teenager used to improve the morale of the troops.
>>722323012What other game where a woman with a sword goes against a group of male warriors and they just start running away in terror from her sheer presence?
>>722323012I think there's a difference between historical and fiction/fantasy. Kcd is like the only historical game that actually tries to be accurate. I wish more games would do that. Choosing Edo time Japan for a solo woman samurai doesn't make sense. There was like 2 famous ones between 1600-1800 but they still wouldn't be able to travel alone, have the same rights etc.
>>722320320has anyone here played it and can tell me how the gameplay and exploration compare to the first game? I quit the first game since it basically felt like asscreed but more restricted climbing
>>722323371moer of the same but bigger open world but still fuck all to do in it
>>722323139
>>722323263>don't make unstoppableShe's only unstoppable if you're good at the game
>>722320320>Female power fantasy >World is made to perfectly fit for female protag so she can get her goal without struggle.>Male power fantasy>World is fucking fucked up so hard that barely anyone can survive but protagonist is so busted up that he can deal with all shit thrown at him and keep going.
>>722323290Good, fuck off back to discord, dumb tranny.
>>722323320>It’s when a female character’s entire identity and personality are reduced to being “the strong woman”, often loudly announced or clumsily emphasized instead of shown naturally.

They're not written as anything else but strong, no growth, no quirks, no real humanity. Just strong female archetype in neon lights.Okay, cool. And you played the game, then?
>>722323454Bro it's literally just the same game as the first one except with a woman
>>722320608>complaints and shitposts about this game here are so surface levelso just like the game itself then? ok
>>722320320SIlksong sold very well
>>722323518I wouldn't know, I don't play slop
>>722323483>Okay, cool. And you played the game, then?Correct
>>722323406I'm kinda disappointed with the weapons. I thought they would expand upon the stances and give each weapon multiple stances. But instead the different weapons are functionally identical to the stances from the first.Granted I've only unlocked the dual katanas so far.But if you liked the first game then you'll definitely like this one. Just need to find a mask to equip as soon as possible because her face really is distracting lol.
>>722320320It's a femcel "game.">>722320608There's no game here, only a political manifest accompanied with AAA slop. You are never going to convince me this "game" has complicated combo systems or even one frame links. Just slop for retards like you who have never played video games, only watched Netflix and movies.
>>722323440lmao this game is retarded, this webm single handedly assured i wont be buying it, and i beat the first game on the hardest difficulty. never got around to the DLC though
>>722323643>give her a mask>use japanese voiceoverYep it's gaming time
>>722323440So where is the game? All I see is cutscenes.
>>722320320Is this game out? I literally have no idea.
>>722323634So you can give examples of this from the game?
>>722323701There isn't any.75% of the game are controller gimmicks.Like to make a campfire you have to swipe fast on the touchpad whilst spamming R2.It's a gimmick game for fags who are going to be like "wow thats so fucking cool"
>>722323440why are they terrified of a 4'11'' woman like that?
>>722323440I thought the whole samurai thing was supposed to be about honor?Why are these American developers depicting them as brutal savages?
>>722323752Literally right there anon>>722323440
>>722323479>Goodoh really. I personally prefer discussions about gameplay mechanics on this video game board. but I guess there really are FAGGOTS like you around who’d rather read the boring ramblings of an incel
>>722320320>Welcome to war maidens, now don't let the name worry your fragile male ego making you go on a rant about "ackshually women never participated in battle ever", we have plenty of steel for fighting men
>>722323839Ah, so no. You're just going to disingenuously cherry-pick things you saw on /v/ and pretend you played the game.
>>722320580>male-feminist game journos with faces like thisHow could you forget about leftist game-journo Jason Schreier.
>>722323905If you approach this place with the same mindset as a zoo where you get to gawk at the monkeys and even feed them a bit it's a decent pastime
>>722320320>Who the fuck is the target audience for this slop?the devs and actors.
>>722323839>It’s when a female character’s entire identity and personality are reduced to being “the strong woman”, often loudly announced or clumsily emphasized instead of shown naturally.Nothing in >>722323440 really screams "women strong!". It seems to be just some random scene where the main character kills a few random bandits; she doesn't say anything about being an empowered women, the bandits don't tell her to go back to the kitchen etc.The protagonist could be male and the scene would be the same.
>>722323752Here you go, tranny >>722323440
>>722323539At least you tried, esl-kun.
>>722324067And, of course, no one would then pretend that this 16-second clip means that the male character is one-dimensional and stereotypical. /v/ appropriates the language of criticism to pretend to be justified in their irrational hatred but in reality it's all just a meaningless regurgitation entirely divorced from context or understanding. Literal LLM shit.
>>722323915I know it's a joke, but many people watch shows like vikings and think shield maidens were real, while there is barely any proof of that. It's more of a literary phenomenon inspired by Valkyries (also, mythology).
>>722323905>>722323984heh.. didn't know snoy trannies still exist on /v/.
>>722324171And here you go >>722323931
>>722320320This isn't female power fantasy. It's male power fantasy with a male character with a female skin.
>>722324214They actually did some testing on some bones they dug up from Viking graves that were assumed to be male because they were buried with weapons, only to find that they were female. Or trans, I guess.
>>722324278>AKSHUWALLY YOU HAVE TO GIVE SNOY $70 AND FORCE YOURSELF TO "PLAY" THROUGH THEIR FEMINISTSLOP IN ORDER TO CRITICIZE THE GAMEfuck off, shill
>>722323440What's feminist about this kind of shout and not a One Piece haki or Fus Roh Dah
>>722324419Yes. I mean, you don't have to play it, but to then pretend that your decision to not do so is based on an in-depth understanding of the protagonist's narrative arch and portrayal seems asinine.
>>722323440>It's a literal screeching dykeCan't make this shit up.
>>722320320>MALE POWER FANTASY BAD FEMALE POWER FANTASY GOODWhy do chuds make up things no one said
>>722324563This is a gaming board, nobody here cares about your "I hate heterosexual men and gamers!" narrative. Fuck off, faggot.
>>722324493frfr no cap ong
>>722320320>FEMALE POWER FANTASY GOODYes when she is hot and etero.
There’s a moment I saw early on in the game where the MC activates “Onyo’s Howl” for the first time, and she just kinda yells and suddenly every enemy is shitting their pants and begging for their lives just because, and it feels very pathetic and laughable. In the original GOT, when you unlock Ghost Stance, which happens after a boss fight, Jin beheads the general in front of his troops, and immediately goes into the mode, which causes the enemies to shit themselves and beg for their lives. Which makes it feels a lot more earned.My point is this game fucking sucks. Fuck any sequel to a popular game that immediately pivots to a female MC.
>>722324726>This is a whining board, nobody here cares about actually playing video games
>>722320320Western games are all about female empowerment in media to placate them for inserting trannies into their real life spaces.>>722320608Too bad it also doesn't seem to have anything especially notable about it except for "muh kino screenshots." It looks like a remarkably average open world game.
>>722321642A little bit? Bro near every Western game today seems to be that. Male protagonists are becoming increasingly rare.
>>722324935You call this a video game? Please elaborate what kind of combo system it has and it is has one frame links. Also explain if it even has motion inputs and the variables involved in fighting.
>>722324625>discord spacing
>>722325004>Guy who plays only one type of game thinks he's a "gamer"
>>722323320very good post
>>722325153In my games there is this thing called gameplay, yes. I'm also going to tell you that smart people make good video games, not stupid ones. The tweets you unhinged dickless leftoids write provide more than sufficient evidence that everything you produce should be completely ignored, because they can't be of any acceptable quality.Go consume your Netflix slop.
>>722320580>At least I'm not Anthony Burch
>>722325269Bro you're the one who missed the GotY 2020
>>722325269You’re overreacting. A game can be shallow and repetitive, but that doesn’t mean it stops being a game.
its about killing the white man
>>722320320That's not what a female power fantasy looks like at all
>>7223253232020 wasn't a great year for video games. Best game of the year was Nioh 2 which was pretty much ignored by the media. And funny enough Yotei seems to be ripping off with it's weapons.
Kill Bill and Blue Eyed Samurai were cool. But this game isn't like them. It should have leaned into the campiness.
>>722325278
>>722320608The first game was literally all about how male power fantasy is bad. Revenge was presented as a trait that destroys rather than empowers.This one does the opposite. Revenge sets you free and makes you a girlboss.
>>722320772Those tend to like slutty females like in slop blade.
>>722320320Who you quoting? The devs who made a male power fantasy game then made this sequel?
>>722320901You now a lone swordsman couldn't walk into a castle and kill every Mongol inside singlehandidly, right?
>>722325765So you're saying they improved upon Tsushima by incorporating mechanics from better games
>>722326007Yeah I really don't get why people are surprised by any of this. The first game had a bunch of 'strong' ugly women who unlike their male counterparts never suffered any consequences. Should be thankful they didn't portray Jin as a hack, because I guarantee someone at the studio wanted to.
>>722326113>The devs who made a male power fantasy gamelol
>>722326123/v/ always says realism is boring, then suddenly becomes a huge fan whenever a woman does anything (but then they hate it again when she's not a KPop singer with DDs)
>>722323319That had tons of tits in it.
>>722326167It's a good thing you can still imagine the persecution even if it didn't end up in the game
>>722320320>who is the targetPeople who bought ps5Remember that there is about 10 games for it and if something was popular before it needs either a sequel or a remake
Ghost Of Tsushima, Hollow Knight, Hades - each successful IPs that immediately abandon their MCs to pivot to a female lead in the sequel. (all releasing around the same time, funnily enough) What is this reason for this? And are there other examples?
>>722326237Meanwhile the other side says realism is important but has no problem inserting dozens of minorities into historical countries they wouldn't be in and making women super important and powerful. Everyone just wants what they want.
>>722326339>each successful IPs that immediately abandon their MCs to pivot to a female lead in the sequel. (all releasing around the same time, funnily enough)and all good games
>>722326164I dunno about improved because rather than Nioh where different weapons have entirely different builds, this just makes it an expanded type advantage system which feels much less enjoyable.
>>722326192I mean I thought it was a little funny that one guy could almost single handedly evict the mongol army from his entire island too, but it looked cool and was fun so I was able to suspend disbelief.
>>722326356>no problem inserting dozens of minorities into historical countries they wouldn't be inSuch as?I can think of Musa from KCD2, and Yasuke in AC: Shadows, but those are at least somewhat justified. Can't think of "dozens".
>>722326564I was admittedly thinking more of film there. Though while it's not historical so much since video games tend to lean towards fantastical, Hades 2 and God of War Ragnarok.
>>722323440btw an onryō is a vengeful spirit from Japanese folklore, often women who were wronged, known for their mercilessness and revered for their great power.
how would you write a female protag /v/?
>>722326686NTA but I don't believe any or very many of the other actors in GoW were scandanavian either, so I've always thought it's funny that someone who doesn't belong to the actual culture belongs there less cuz they're a different color even though the other actors don't belong to the culture either. It was made by an american studio and published by a japanese company on top of that
>>722326806>she's got a big butt and generous cleavage and her fighting moves will make her boobs bounce and her skirt fly up and...
>>722326554bro, the game has a scene to flaunt the MC's bare man ass. you're not kidding anyone.
>>722327008>Is that... a butt?!>AM I GAY NOW???!
>>722327008That doesn't make it not a power fantasy. If you wanna switch to the hypersensitive homophobe angle let me know first so I don't get whiplash
>>722327053>>722327082>gay bath scenes are a male power fantasyyou are getting desperate.
>>722327141So do you not bathe alone lest it make you the gay?
>>722327141>gayHe's all by himself
>>722327191I think this guy only bathes with his bros so they can all witness how not gay he is.
>>722327169>>722327191you've convinced me. I'm buying a copy right now.
>>722327315I think you'll be pleasantly surprised when it's 1% optional hot spring side content and 95% winning fights where you're outnumbered and being revered by the locals because it's a male power fantasy game.
>>722327473I can feel me becoming better by the minute.
>>722320608Finally a sensible post
>>722327539Good news if you wanna be, the very best
anyone has that gif of her smilling creepily?
>>722327935Is there a single facial expression a woman can make that incels won't throw a shitfit about?
We must become BOSS WOMEN I AM A WOMAN HERE ME ROOOARR YEEEEAEREGG
>>722320608Congratulations anon. You've figured out why so many people on /v/ rely on buzzwords for criticism
>>722328429I feel like it has gone beyond buzzwords into thought-terminating cliché territory.
>>722320608I don't want to play as an ugly woman in a video game.
>>722328429Faggots like you all end up killing yourself early
>>722320320You let mentally ill leftists go to college and get all the jobs, start taking some responsibilities niggerfaggot
>>722328898Yet you'll play as any man... are you attracted to them, then?
>>722320320Post the edits
>>722328429>>722328963>>722328661 see what I mean?
>>722328993If you're defensive about finding another man attractive then you're a closet homosexual.
>>722320320>who is the target audienceLiterally anyone without enough willpower to not consoom product and get excited for next product. So just the same retards who bought ps5 despite the lack of games.
>>722320320>Who the fuck is the target audience for this slop?Mostly feminists and male allies like Joss Whedon trying to fuck them them. Women on average don't ordinarily consume woman warrior stuff unless there's elements of romance and drama in it.
>>722323809cause samurai were kinda ruthless at some points, bandits in uniforms
>>722320608There is nothing more that needs to be said about this genre of generic slop
>>722329168So you're an open homosexual huh
>>722323651>Just slop for retards like you who have never played video games, only watched Netflix and movies.your average snoy, dad-game basically.
>>722320320just don't buy it. it's that simple. if they want to make shit games let them. you have more money in your pocket for actual good games. simple as.
chuds really spend hours in this thread about a game theyll never play instead of just playing a game
>>722329314>joss whedon Diddy party and Epstein fag
>>722320608I'm still not playing Antifa Dyke Simulator, Sony cuck.
>>722320608Almost like anons don't play games they just get mad at politics>>722320320Watched someone play this for like two hours are you retarded?
>>722329796But you'll still be spending more time talking about it :)You'll talk about the game longer than it would take to beat the game lmao
>>722320638Right, his being too modest, it's noticeibly better in every single way, by quite a large margin.
>>722321808I was thinking it was to hide animations, but honestly its on par if not a step above rdr2 random npc interactionsI will say, everything feels like main story content in terms of quality of the stories or things you have to do, the only real difference is the lack of high quality cut scenes and cutscenes
the colors are kinda weird, looks like it's doing some fucked up post processing which is a mistake
>>722320580everyone I don't like is a jew or indian. it's insane how gaining peace of mind boils down to that. just disregard everything they say and produce. >I can't play AAA games thenYou mean you won't have to spend $80 on a shit game
>>722323440This looks so goofy, the only time enemies were actively shitting themselves in Jins presence was when he would actively show the difference in their skill by doing things such as parry kills or ruthlessly killing them in sequenceJust standing around screaming like a banshee would just get you an arrow in the chest
>>722329591>huhyour inability to reason why a man would want to look at either an attractive woman exhibiting female characteristicsor self insertmakes me think you're a woman
>>722329931You aren't wrong. I do get a lot of pleasure out of shitting all over woke slop. Especially if the antagonist of said game is portrayed by an Antifa dyke.
I be honest here this game is confirmed a flop since it's a PS5 exclusives no one buy PS5.
>>722320608i’m just not interested in playing a female protagonist, sorry. i really enjoyed the first game too
>>722320608Chidbros...Are we really this easy to read?
Women already had a power fantasy game. They don't want to be fucking warriors.
>>722320320they had such an easy layup. just make a sequel that improves a few things but they couldn't help themselves
>>722320320>TOXIC MASCULINITY, MAN:(>TOXIC MASCULINITY, WOMAN*o*
>>722331151You don't have to learn much about logical fallacies and manufactured outrage to see right through this kind of thing. I give the benefit of the doubt by thinking it's mostly fueled by gullible children, cuz I was a dumb kid on 4chan once.
sorry faggots if you want me to play your femc slop it better have a protag that looks like Estelle, Eve, Pieberry, etc. a character creator is fine too.
>>722331360TOXIC MASCULINITY is almost as retarded as antisemitism or islamophobia like who comes up with these braindead retarded terms?
>>722320320>*rides horse into Japanese land*>*hear somebody doing evil things*>gotta be samurai>*walk up to the samurai*>AH IT IS A WOMAN, EVERYONE LOOK AT THE WEAK WOMAN, I HATE WOMEN SO MUCH, I WISH I WAS PILLAGING AND RAPING RIGHT NOW>*kills all samurai in a qte*>tch, never underestimate a woman, silly samurai>repeat
>>722331520there is no way it's this cringe.
>>722322439Onna bushi were the last line of defense for the Tenshu, basically to give the daimyo time to commit seppuku before capture type of deal.
>>722331619It's obviously headcanon. Reads exactly like GoW better men posts.
>>722331631Also, they used young boys for sexual relief not women. That'd be gay.
turns out gamers are faggot retards who eat this shit up for breakfastit will outsell even kcd 2: nigger chronicles and baldur's gay 3
>>722332250no it won't because ps5 owners don't buy games. it will sell between 1/3 and 1/2 as much as Tsushima at most.
The story is so much worse than in the first game it's almost impressive.
>>722320320This isn't a female power fantasy though. That would be a character that seduces a bad boy (also rich and handsome) and making him a good man that is only for her.This is the premise of every women's romance story in the history of ever.
>>722330792i was going more for the onions (for lack of a better word) look than the jew look there
stay mad lol
>>722332881>criticsoy vey
>>722332881>114 criticsNot many people own PS5 huh...
eww girls are yucky...
>>722331463Make up better ones if you don't like these for some reason.
>>722330951>NOOO MY SEETHING IS PLEASURE lol
>>722322439Many occurrences have been documented.Note they were almost always fighting on the defensive, they weren't marching off to war.
>>722330951Nah bro it's $830 buckaroo (PS5 + game)
>>722320447https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyC_2nGU-f8
>>722320320>female power fantasyThis aint it, thats being irresistible to the point that even Gigachad simping for you.This is dyke power fantasy.
>>722332881Like 3 points above Splatoon 2, a gameplay game, multiplayer, which critics always hates. This is the game they want and even the hate it
Troonified normies are ok with it, we are a fringe minority.
>Ah, yes, a middle-aged woman with a smoker's voice, that's who I want to be!
>>722328993He said nothing about attraction, tranny faggot.
>>722320320this is not a female power fantasy, its a broken LA tumblr user’s fantasy.And it doesn’t have to be that way, just learn Unity its actually easy.I’m making my own games and sticking to a few indies/retro for now.
>>722320320Why they gave this she-goblin normal human body?
>>722331463It used to apply more specifically to groups of men that would shit on each other for any reason and bully each other while not even believing what theyre saying, essentially discouraging other men from their goals, it was specifically about Gym culture and was coined by a psychologist who was studying groups of gymbrosI thinkJust as the term incel used to apply only to people who couldnt date due to external factors out of their control like being stuck on a wheelchair or having third degree burn scars
shift+click PiSs5 threadsMinimize Gaystation threadsIgnore Gay threadsForget about Sony topics
>>722324335Yes, it totally was "Please bury me with my beloved Sven's weapons that I maintained for 10 years after he died on raid"
>>722323440Woketards will say "it's just as silly when Jin does it! Besides, it's just a game where you can do supernatural shit like change the weather with a flute or have a giant pet wolf so it doesn't matter, just suspend your disbelief like when it's a man!"That's wrong. Enjoyment is deeply affected by our preconceptions and real world knowledge. Women are a fucking joke when it comes to upper body strength, they cannot handle stress, they're overly emotional, aren't competitive, can't do tactical decision-making. They're utterly worthless when it comes to fighting and warfare, they do not have the brain or the brawn for it. That's why people will never ever be able to take shit like this seriously. It's like those family dog movies where the dog and his 9-year-old kid owner dismantle the fucking mafia or something. You'll never look at it the way you look at something like John Wick, even though both are exaggerated and silly.There's a concerted media effort in brainwashing and reprogramming people into thinking otherwise, but we're nowhere near close to that. Maybe we won't ever be. Then again, they kind of did it with black people so who knows.
>>722336823No man can walk up to a castle and solo and entire army if Mongels either. Its equally unrealistic either way
>>722320608Most obliterating post I've seen on /v/ this week.
>>722320320Idk senpai, In uni I had a professor who was like 1,45m tall and everybody was scared shitless of her.
>>722320447its the "based" gamersfriend plays and cant stop posting shit like he owns chuds by plaing it, he also bough yotei controller and sideplate.
>>722321402They were exoected to grab a spear instead of being raped. Women at this time did not even have freedom to travel.
>>722320320I just noticed that Atsu is way shorter than pretty much every other NPC in the game, even the womenLooked up her height and found out she's 152cm / 5'0"
>>722321402>who fought in actual battlesFuck off with this retarded shit. There was a period when wives of samurai were supposedly required to learn about fighting but only to defend their own household/castle against imminent mortal danger. Like when all the men had already died and the enemy was coming in to say hi. A last ditch thing, and it was more of a formality really. When shit hit the fan the women just killed themselves or whored themselves out.This is as if some fat neckbeard in the future says ACKSHULLY royal family members of the 21st century were all really soldiers who fought in real battles!>but muh Tomoe GozenIt's a goddamn folk tale.
>>722338948kek you can't make this shit up
>>722323440>'I AM A WOMAN HEAR ME ROAR'
>>722326007you are stupid and gay
>UGLY FEMALE POWER FANTASY GOODthis is the problem, if she looked like eve from stellar blade most criticism would evaporate
>First game comes out>/v/ tells me its based. No female soldiers, just straight up Kurosaw badassery>Buy it>Like every fucking NPC quest giver is some "badass" samurai girlbossThat was what made me realize how many viral marketers on /v/ and how much they will lie to sell you a copy.
>>722344508Yeah she needs plastic surgery and makeup from the future
>>722337535bunch of shooters have you soloing thousands of enemies and the game doesn't mention it, the game doesn't talk about how many people nathan drake put in the ground (several battalions worth), it's a gameplay mechanic, it's there for the fun of it, there's a separation between gameplay and story, so be it, you're more likely to notice the weird nature of having a woman where she doesn't belong, like a game about russian-ukraine war with a woman infantry soldier
>>722320320Wow what a fragile fucking snowflakeIf y'all hate women that much, go fuck other men and leave us alone
Is there any game series where the first game has a female protagonist and the sequel has a male protag?
I have...anti-women fatigue.
>>722320320Shut the fuck up, your boycott didn't work wokies
>>722320320>Nothing is more cringe and unbelievable than a "powerful and intimidating" woman warriorAnd yet one of the most intimidating scenarios for anyone is their mother calling them by their full legal name.Fiction and reality are fucking weird man, just roll with it.
>>722344708Another lie.
>>722323319nobody watched this shit
letting women into our hobbies/careers was a blunder.
>>722321402Did you play the first game? And don't mistake strong indpendent woman slop with kamalslop. Be precise.
>>722320608tpbpif anything Ghost of Yotei says that female power fantasy is bad lol
>>722348336>>722320608fuck off back to r/gamingcirclejerk faggots, women have ruined every hobbyist community that exists. we should have gatekept you faggots/cunts
>>722320608>they hate him because he told them the truth
>>722323440Ahah no way they did the hear me roar thing unironically
>>722320320There is no audience because these type of games are agitprop, not entertainment. They don't want or need to make money from them, they don't care about profits and sales. It's for ideology.
>>722351306It sold a milly already bro
>>722323809Because they were.
>>722331619literally the opening scene of the game
>>722351306Imagine being this delusional
>>722352150>creates the biggest flop in entertainment history
>>722320320>fantasy universe with cool male protagonist in ghost of tsushima>wow this is so cool, i cant wait for the sequel!>second game in the series features a female protagonist>omg you made it woke!!!! no more women in video games stop shoving your agenda down my throat!!!!!!>all because the character exists and is female
>>722352543when are you fags going to wake up and realize no one wants the retarded shit you're peddling?
>>722331239Based, new cooking mama when
>>722320608They hated him because he told the truth
>>722320320You know what's as realistic as a woman killing hundreds of people? A man killing hundreds of people. Both games are just superhero movies, and it's stupid to criticize them for the main character's gender.
>>722352746women exist, anon. i'm sorry we don't live in a world that exclusively consists of men like you fantasize about
>>722352887>women exist, anonno shit, they also don't play games unless it's for clout or money.
>>722322137>Women existday ruined
>>722320320The problem with a female power fantasy is that a female power fantasy is too sexy to exist so we don't have that either.
>>722320320>Who the fuck is the target audience for this slop?No one really, these games are practically experimental and vanity driven
>>722352984Whether or not that's true is completely irrelevant to the fact that the game has a female protagonist. Unless you seriously think no game should ever feature a female character as a protagonist, which you probably do, you're just making shit up to get mad over.
>>722320608it's just not an appealing game, it's not something i'd buy for $70
>>722353162>Whether or not that's true is completely irrelevantthen where are the people who are buying this dogshit?
>>72232044799% of biological women play phone games if that
>>722352887I think the only people who don’t think women exist are the trannoid lunatics like you and the developers of woke shit like yodei considering all their supposedly female characters look like disgusting mutt abortions, the average female gas station cashier looks better than female video game protagonists
>>722320608the post that destroyed every election tourist
>>722353417The lower case third worlder samefagging
Post sales numbers
>>722321767>>722326123a female power fantasy focused game wouldn't be to play an ugly tall woman whose revenge story revolves around larping as a mana female power fantasy would be a revenge plot centered the girl becoming an courtesan that schemes her way into getting her revenge like yanxi palaceit's like you people have never talked to a woman in your life or understand what they actually likeghosts of yotei doesn't appeal to women, it doesn't appeal to men either, it appeals to no one
>>722320320>MALE POWER FANTASY BAD FEMALE POWER FANTASY GOODHeres the problem it's not that. 99% of all Asian entertainment is some sort of sexy tiny small girls or sex bombs with a Katana that can slice people in half. Men love to look at woman doing shit while they look sexy. Nier and Staller Blade are the perfect poof.The issue is always that they take a real thing, a real location and say "This is based on history" and then they insert this bullshit inside. An ugly masculine woman somehow fucking over men in the real world in strenght contests with a male weapon. And to add massive insult to injury they don't take the historical thing. Japanese women indeed did train in the usage of Naginatas to defend themselves and in rare cases they went on the battlefield but when they did they were mostly in the commanding roles due to nobility. But if you look at the tactics they used it was to overwhelm men with numbers or to do sneaky shit. They specifically used the Naginata because you could swing it to compensate for the biological differences. They almost never used swords instead prefering bows. Just read wokeapedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onna-musha even it has to admit that they didn't use swords.So what the fuck do they do this I'll never get it. And I don't care I bought the first game I'm not buying the second. Same thing with Last of Us. Same thing with Unchart 123 and then I stoped buying it. Same thing with EVERY FUCKING GAME SONY MAKES.I have a PS4 and PS5. I bought nothing for the PS5 I have unicorn overlrod and I didn't have a 7900 XTX at time of release so I got Elden Ring. Thats it. My entire PS5 game library. They ruined every single IP they had.
>>722353437struck a nerve, huh? lurk for two years before posting
>>722353515This.>>722353487They're going to be sad total numbers vs the first game.If only because theres a lot less PS5s compared to PS4 at this point.
>>722320901>the low testosterone weak incel that plays games all day is preaching about how women and men should act in a time period of a country he never lived kek, you are all hypocrites who love engaging in ridiculous fantasies everyday, you only dislike it when other people do it.
>>722320320Female power fantasies don’t involve physical prowess. They involve hot guys falling over themselves to do what the woman says.
>>722329931>>722333123I know you think this is a gotcha, but you cannot change that anons gender, men don't like this game, it's pretty where it doesnt matter and ugly where it does matter, it's not a masculine story nor is it a story or gameplay that appeals to womenwomen would have rather have played a game with an attractive male lead that they can fujobait with some other attractive male character than play an ugly woman role playing as a warrior
>>722320608Sorry I won't play a ugly Californian woke woman in Hokkaido it's that simple. I spent a month in Hokkaido. I will not tarnish my memory of it with this crap.
>>722353417>my opinion is surely righteous, this will surely impact game sales!lol, lmao
>>722353649I am surprised, I was going to see if I could pick up a used copy or something next week but its not on PS4. The game doesnt even look much better than the first one
Can't we get more kino stuff like this? Lefties spent decades complaining about "gruff white male protagonists" and yet that's all they make now every time except instead of a male it's an ugly as fuck charisma vacuum tranny
>>722353515>becoming an courtesan that schemes her way into getting her revenge like yanxi palacewhere is a game like this??sony?? hire this expert.
>>722353437>lower caseReally reaching for anything huh? You didn't put a period at the end your sentence, turd worlder.
>>722320608>straightforward sequel to a good gameThe first game wasn't that good though. So ultimately I wasn't going to buy it anyway. A woman made it even more retarded and any chance id consider on it is gone.
>>722353856we got two (technically three) sequels and they were all inferior to the original
>>722353856bayo 3 came out just a few years ago, last year we got stellar blade, we got wuchang this year. I dont think we are lacking in sexy action games.
>>722320608still not buying it
>>722332881Critics also liked Veilguard and just about every fucking flop since 2020. And boy oh boy has there been a lot of company destroying flops. It's crazy if it's not a absolute dogshit game like Anthem that tries to be he most scumy microstransation ridden Destiny clone it's the "by passonate activists" type games. The industry just moves from flop to flop. Well the Western Industry that is.
>>722353905it's a particularly baffling thing to say since using upper case it's associated with phoneposting. It shows how newfags think they'll fit if they repeat the buzzwords, but just like trannies, they'll never pass
>>722328993why are you so homophobic?
>>722354112>Critics also liked Veilguard71% on open critic is basically a failure.
>>722354193
>>722320320We get it, you hate the game because your favorite part got removed. Sorry you don’t get to see bare male ass everytime you soak in a hot spring anymore and must now watch a woman go fully nude and show off her supple ass checks and soft curvy back and nice smelly feet covered in the sticky blood of her enemies. I know I know, having to play as a guy is straight and playing as a girl is only something tranny faggots who secretly wanna troon out and offer their ass up to every BBC within a 1,000 mile radius at all times while dilating their axe wound and keeping it clean of all the poop that keeps accidentally getting into it because you can’t help yourself but to start furiously fingering your asshole everytime you wipe your ass
>>722354353That's not very LGBTQ+ of you
>>722354346Veilguard was an actual gay as fuck piece of trash, so gay they made all the women customization options ugly as fuck so you’ll play as a hot elf dude that can’t stop fucking every male party member that joins your shitty gay as fuck adventure down a narrow hallway over and over for god knows how long.Meanwhile Yōtei has those supple soft asschecks and that tiny bit of muff that gets exposed from the back as she lifts her soft beautiful Asian thigh up and into the water of a hot spring as she relaxes fully naked with her bare tits and pussy and ass just soaking up all the mineral rich hot springs water.
>>722354193Sorry show me the week one by IGN, Gamespot and all the rest. I know that obscure polish magazine has normal views. But corporate shill media does not
>>722354624>Veilguard was an actual gay as fuck piece of trashYou don't say!
>>722353565>The issue is always that they take a real thing, a real location and say "This is based on history"Got any sources on that for this game?
Anyone who shills/supports these AAA movie games is a mortal enemy of video games. Movie-loving mouthbreathers need to get the fuck out of this hobby and go back to watching Hollywood slop.
>>722330897No there was also a similar mode in Ghost of Tsushima where you could activate it and Jin would go super bloodlust mode and you would have one-hit kills and dismemberments for a limited time
>>722355167and did the enemies cower while yelling "don't hurt me!" as you walk towards them?
>>722320320>supposed alpha male>triggered by shitty game made for womenthis is why your a chud/incel.
>>722355451Thanks for weighing in, Ranjeet.
>>722353905No native English speak will blink an eye at a lack of punctuation, but they will at lower case >>722354141I know you’re a third world retard but auto-capitalization predates smart phones, windows 95 had it. It’s a feature older than you are. No, lower case posting is loser case posting, done predominantly by fucking retarded third worlders, primarily from SEA and India
>>722354141>thinking phoneposting is a bad thing in the year of our lord 2025 while calling others newfags Pot meet kettle
Another thread that proves we should've nuked SEA
>>722320608Its the same game, except shittier. Not very good value proposition.
>>722357078How is it shitter, did you play it? They improved the quests and missions to not be so reptitive and added more weapon variety
>>722323980Looks like a fatter Griffin McElroy
>>722355426yes they did. they all scramble to get out of the way
>>722320320Bud you not been watching? Look at star wars. They neutered all the beloved males and replaced them with women. Anytime a franchise succeeds it is lobotomized into a womyn empowerment sequel because that's the only way they can get viewers/players, by tricking people into thinking it's a sequel to a good game when it's just their vehicle for feminism.
>>722323440>Onryo's howlI don't know anything about this game but the entire thing about onryos is that they are such fear emanators you just stand there and shit your pants at the sight of one unless you have god level willpower
>>722356737>>722356914you'll never fit in, sorry
>>722320320To be absolutely fair to women, men live a powerful lifestyle already, so they don't see why we should have fictional power fantasies. We don't bleed for a week every month. We can pick our shit up and leave at a moment's notice.We can sleep in a trench and shit in a bag, and think absolutely nothing of it.We walk outside without fear of being raped, and even if something were to happen, we have the strength to potentially fight them off.We can sit in an empty room and entertain ourselves with stories and knowledge.All of this, they envy, and respect us for having these abilities. This is why women need to be "empowered", because they have no power. Their only real power against us is their sex appeal, and they have a whole half of the population to compete against when it comes to that .So in the mean time, they can play a video game featuring female power fantasies.That's what the developers and marketers are banking on when they make this kind of stuff, they want to sell a game where women don't have to compete with other women on an objective level like beauty, but a subjective one that men go through every day, thinking that will entice them to buy.What these dumb motherfuckers don't realize, is that the overwhelming majority of women have no interest in playing video games, and they'd get high and their field plowed by Chad.
