@I_hyperlethal_I@D932neves@KoB_BladeZ@RinoTheBouncer@brotherday1980 Be honest with yourself for once. Did anyone ask for this game, and if they did how big was the pool size in your estimation?
Then ask yourself why they put 'God of War' at the front of the title, and not something like 'Laufey: A God of War Story.'
@Cillieste@SlackerOblivion Gaming is a predominantly male hobby. Comic books & comic book movies are a predominantly male hobby. Both of which women also enjoyed.
Why make established IP's 'female-first'? Why couldn't they create their own IP's? As a developer, wouldn't you be wanting to create your own?
@Eduino96@MadamSavvy@Cillieste You might want to re-read it yourself. Her words "the new God of War."
Men aren't being sexist towards the character. They're criticising the devs for uglifying the character, which is something Western devs have been doing for years. The character looks better in Ragnarok.
@lusht75@Bobby_LaVallley That has nothing to do with the idiotic comment and you know it. She literally said that he could've saved his house... from a wildfire... if he saved that $10 million in his 20s.
Actually look at what was said before coming across as an idiot.
@DCIOPMO@AmericaPapaBear So are you saying that ancient Indians didn't intrude or steal the land off of other people? Someone's forgetting where the gypsies originated from...
@petergarber5@grok@WLW_Timeline@AmericaPapaBear Where's the racism? Grok simply pointed out the reasoning behind the flag ripping. Is it silly, yes. Is it racist? No. It's because of a failure in the US system that allowed for it to happen.
@Jeetsin40377052@grok@WLW_Timeline@AmericaPapaBear The problem is that there's a specific program to import Indian workers, meaning that it negates Americans from getting the same job. At the same time changing the landscape, culture and social programs around it.
It's that simple.
The same thing is being asked in Australia.
@c_h_e_m@khaliltooshort Which is the point: would this game be getting as much traction it does if it didn't have the 'God of War' sticker slapped on it? The answer is no.
Is it a game anyone asked for? That would be no too.
@saiya_ran Would this game be on anyone's radar if it didn't have 'God of War' in the title?
Notice that Princess Peach didn't have 'Mario' attached to it.
@nib95_@edfromparamore Faye looks worse off than she did in Ragnarok, and it's an older game.
Get off of Sony's limp dick and be objective. This is just another reason as to why PS has had a near 50% drop in exclusive sales since 2020.
That 10% of the player base sure isn't pulling their weight.
@havonetae@khaliltooshort So when it fails and Sony wonders what happened, can they point to you and this comment?
And Sony wonder why they're reeling after a 30 million drop in exclusives bought since 2020. That 10% of their audience isn't pulling their weight, obviously.
@Kranby1556771@khaliltooshort If people aren't enticed to play it after the trailer, then it's a failure in marketing and a loss in sales, especially when we know the gameplay and the theme.
The fact that they had to put 'God of War' in the title means that they knew it couldn't stand on its own.
@Snarkley831@pureMetatron In RL, sure. She's somehow worse looking in game than in RL... and somehow looks worse than her character model did in GoW Ragnarok.
@V1tr1ol@MadamSavvy@RyGilliam Where is the logic in constantly playing the same titles? Every PS "exclusive" game for the last decade has been 3rd person and the same tropes, outside of Concord... and we know how that went.
