This is already one of those games where because a handful of the ‘wrong’ people dislike it now everyone who dislikes it will be called a chud or incel or whatever, huh?
Very tired of the like/dislike of media properties becoming a flag that signals your political allegiances.
"It's not made for you!"
"So why would I play it?"
"Because if you don't, you're a bigot!"
That shit don't work no more, especially because people realized "So did that make you a bigot for all the years you opted out of gaming because it 'wasn't for you?'"
It do go both ways
These canned responses have got to stop.
People just don't want to play as other characters. Applying the easiest response is ridiculous.
For example, I'm on record saying that Roxas's chapter in Kingdom Hearts 2 is annoying and pointless. How do you respond when I would prefer one male protagonist over another?
I want to play as Ellie through the entirety of TLOU2 because Abby annoys me as well. I prefer one female protagonist over another.
Reducing criticism to something most people aren't arguing is bitch-made because it means you can't refute, so you find the ones that your position easily counters.
...you literally mention Lara Croft...while people are excited to see the new Legacy of Atlantis game.
New audiences are even geeking out about a pink haired girl in Ace Combat 8-saying it sold them on the game.
You're being disingenuous.
These people do not care what came before or after, how this character got to this point, or the context of the scene
They see lines like what Naoto said here and instantly try to affirm the character like they're transgender
There is no room for anything else in their minds
"people have resisted lolis and shotas being included in anime"
Yeah man
People resisted from using so much that they made an entire culture behind it "Moe" and even had loli boom
