Soooo, just out of curiosity. Were are all of those men who just hate women? And would never play a female protagonist? Is this a bug in the matrix? Or mayhap there's some sort of difference between Evie and Laufey?
Crazy how gamers are all evil chuds who hate female protagonists but I still haven't seen a single person hate on the new Stellar Blade game, almost as if gender was never the problem.

Its not even close to the best response because the best response would just be acceptance for the idea that the player base likes Kratos, wants to play as Kratos, and just wants to emulate as closely as possible to a character they respect.

Everytime this is said to significant backlash of the core audience, it leads to failure. Sales matter.
Its not like people are buying a game and not playing it... unless its on Steam Sale.
This scene keeps angering me the more I think about it. The timing to sync up PERFECTLY in the story for Kratos to die, spawn next to Faye when she didnt spawn there on her death, and then for him to be perfectly aware of the exploding situation and help her then leave without a word is baffling.
It screams of the devs saying "see here's Kratos in the game." Are there any rules in this afterlife? Any real stakes?
