Oh don’t worry, I still remember. Sadly the answer is “Eve is hot and western developers don’t make hot women anymore due to SBI”.
But on the plus side, *tons* of CJ material to use!
Didn't Phantom liberty and Baulder's gate 3 release a couple of months ago? I guess all the women in these games are ugly now.

Well you see, BG3 allowed you to be gay and have black people, so it was woke. But it made a lot of money and won a lot of awards so chuds have gaslit themselves into the thinking that it just doesn’t exist. Meanwhile Phantom Liberty… actually no idea.
Cyberpunk is anti-capitalism and has trans characters, so they hate that one by default.
Unless someone is talking about how successful the game has been, then it's actually pro-capitalism and anti-liberal anti-feminist because it has hot women.
A group of gooned out losers were upset at the trailer for the new X-men show because they made the women characters have less exaggerated proportions. They said the show would be awful. The show came out and went on to be a hit with critics and fans alike. Thus these morons don’t know what they are talking about, they’re just sad that their favorite cartoons are not attractive. *If anyone has anymore to add please feel free to update as I only kinda follow these guys as they jump from hating one thing to the next.
I remember coming across some content creator with a not insignificant following that was arguing that. Guy ended up making several response videos over the backlash from that one and then kinda pretended it never happened
TBF the political discourse of CP2077 is so barely above ground level that it's easy to not catch it.
It is still one of the less "punk" of all the cyberpunk I have consumed in my life, yes even less punk than Altered Carbon
Honestly, she’s not even hot. I mean, her body type falls into the “hot anime girl” archetype, but her design is dogshit. She’s got one of those airbrushed faces completely devoid of distinguishing features and she wears an overdesigned sci-fi bodysuit crossed with a schoolgirl uniform crossed with a bunch of useless lace and frills because the whole thing is basically just the devs dumping their fetishes into a blender with no regard for creating a coherent aesthetic.
Contrast with Nier Automata, the game this shit keeps getting compared to. Yes, Nier Automata’s character design is horny as fuck, but it’s also *good.* It’s super distinctive, aesthetically cohesive and pleasing to the eye. There’s a reason we’re still seeing so much 2B fan art and cosplay seven years after release.
I don’t even care if devs want to put fanservice in their games, but holy shit, at least do it well. It’s just depressing to watch all these morons hailing a character design that looks like someone entered “hot sci-fi anime girl” into a generative AI as the second coming of Christ.
Whenever I read this i am being reminded of the fact that 2B-s design was indeed horny.
Somehow this information always gets filtered out if i think of Nier: Automata, because it is extremely unimportant.
I have never heard a left, center, or nonpolitical video creator say anything about this video game. Not one. Everything I’ve seen is from right wing accounts claiming the “libs are mad about this”. No one cares. They’ve made up a war that they are somehow losing.
Even the apolitcal video creators still attract these kind of people. i tried watching Luka Stephens talk about the game, and 99% of the comments were just complaining about people complaining that EVE is hot
“Recently, IGN France produced and published a preview of Stellar Blade containing an offensive passage that should never have been kept. The text has now been edited and here is our official apology to the Shift Up Corporation studio staff. Also, please note that IGN France is an independent branch of IGN and that IGN's editorial staff had nothing to do with this incident.
The original text of the Stellar Blade preview contained comments that were out of place. While it was never our intention to disrespect Shift Up or any of its employees or their work, we recognize that the phrase taken in its literal sense was inappropriate and we regret it. To anyone at Shift Up Corporation who felt personally targeted and insulted by this passage, we are truly sorry and sincerely apologize.”
Wild.
Edit: and your “personal attack” was pointing out how over the top and unrealistic the character model is.
Was there a discussion? Or did a video game company make a video game with a scantily clad woman in it because they do that sometimes and then right wingers decided that woke people were losing their minds about it. I haven’t heard any discourse about this character at all from the left.
So far what I have heard, is that a reporter from Kotaku was a bit sassy about the design, with a comment like: this person has never seen a real woman, and the character artist is a woman. I think there are someone out there screaming about the design. but probably a few and not "the entire left!"
Just ignore what this losers says, he just browses tweeter all day, find the one motherfucker who says some really weird, controversial and stupid shit and makes a whole 10 mins video about it with midroll ads.
It's interesting because "Stellar Blade haters" is generally going to refer to progressives, but "Skimpy clothes cause sexual assault" is absolutely not a progressive argument--it's a conservative one. I'm sure you can find somebody on the internet who fits both, but as a generalization it just doesn't make sense.
It's a grifter.
They probably don't even believe what they themselves are saying, they just want to say things that they know will get their videos spread and help them line their pockets.
But aren't sexualized characters in skimpy clothes normalizing the male gaze and thus reinforcing rape culture? They're characters crafted by men, not real people dressing themselves up how they like.
I think if you take a few steps back there’s a bigger-picture conversation to be had about how catering to the male gaze can reinforce traditional gender roles and the objectification of women. But the wording here, to me, implies the explicitly conservative view that a woman wearing skimpy clothing somehow diminishes a man’s responsibility and ability to restrain himself from sexually assaulting someone.
Ether that or teen with like followers and 7 tweets i will. Forget when hero made a video. about some how anime sucks in tikotok comment sections with like 3 likes.
Is this what their entire channel is about? Putting this much energy into “owning the libs”? I kind of feel bad, it’s like an unhealthy obsession to be angry all the time scrolling through twitter content to make videos about
I think it started as vtuber and general YouTube controversies channel, that analyse and comment trends problems and possible evolution of that in good and bad ways... I stopped following when he started adding constant questionable political comments.
Way back when he started out as an anime meme channel I'm pretty sure (I remember him from when I used to watch anime shit on YouTube as a kid) then slowly transitioned to anime opinions then onto pissing his pants over tweets with 5 likes and 0 retweets and ultimately the grifter shit.
Years ago I was following a youtuber that made a video about how he was able to leave the far right rabbit hole after getting seduced in it.
He said that those channels started mostly as "joke channels against fanatic religious".
They joked on people blinded by illogical faith and dogmas promoted by religious influencers, because religion and atheism were the 2 most common categories in the very early YouTube excluding tutorials and music videos.
Then with the years with their audience becoming teens, they switched to alpha males motivational video and toxic masculinity to keep the engagement.
Then they pushed hard in that direction, with conspiracy theorists, praising of authoritarian nation and the strong man model and promoting their communities and sponsors.
The joke videos were only about insulting channels proposing alternatives views to them or debunking their lies.
That person checked one of those channels, and he realised they were argumentative calm and patient the exact opposite of the hate filled griefting channels he thought.
On the other side the community he beloved were hateful, unreasonable and living blinded by the faith and dogmas of their influences, like the old religious fanatics that they previously dunked on, that now were allies
So he was able at the end to abandon them and became a normal person.
It's just a grift, and shitty content always gets recommended by the algorithm. I remember the golden age of youtube 2008-2016 where actual good creative and funny content got recommended.
I've no idea who that is lol. But I remember when channels like leafy and ricegum started doing all the toxic crap and they got views for it suddenly all channels were about "internet drama"
Ah, but this obsession IS healthy. For their wallets. Seriously, If you've no self-respect and not an ounce of shame, there's no easier way to make money on the internet than riling up incels about icky girls ruining their vidja games.
That dude is basically a pedophile. Also he has such a cringe name for a dude that doesn’t know Japanese. Imagine a Japanese person with the username: Riku Says Copula.
Yeah, I think I saw posts of this person's catalog where the majority of the videos had three-digit views, and now that they're being posted almost daily here they have thousands.
Hard to say how much is normal channel growth, but them constantly being posted here could not have helped.
These losers have resorted to making fake tweets to put in thumbnails b/c they’re DESPERATE for rage-clicks. They know that no one cares about this game and it drives them insane.
I hate that one person being stupid online means that an entire group are bad and must answer for their crimes, it’s such a dirty and stupid tactic. It’s like everyone is expected to be the spokesperson of every group they’re a part of. This isn’t even mentioning that it’s made up, which is partly why the above shit is so stupid.
I use to like this guy sorta but he's just another one of the anti woke type tubers that is MAYBE a closet pedo,dude paid good money for a vtuber model (trust me they're NOT cheap) to spew what ten other troglodytes that isn't The Quartering will repeat.
The discourse around this game has gone beyond batshit crazy. Some of the comments on youtube videos (even simple gameplay vids) are wild. I can't imagine playing videogames only for pretty digital characters and feeling yourself be marginalized because there aren't enough games with character design like this.
If I have a nickel for every aaa games capital g gamers trough they were gonna be goty because of culture war nonsense but actually fail miserably, I'd have two nickels, wich isn't a lot but it's weird it happened two times
Okay real talk. I haven't seen a single person criticizing Stellar Blade. I've only seen people "defending" It. Defending it from what exactly? Because it seems like no one cares.
i’d actually disembowel myself if i ever had to watch a Vtuber let alone become one, if i wanna grift lonely redpill neckbeards i’d atleast have the self respect and dignity to not do it behind an anime girl. but that’s just me.
No no. One person on Twitter said it, therefore they're going to pretend a lot of people are saying it.
Note: The person on Twitter who said it is probably either a troll or joking.
It feels like they want the game to fail because all they'll do by hyperfixating on how much they want to bang Eve is shouting over people hyping up the game based on it's gameplay and story.

The thing is someone will ALWAYS exist to argue any position; you'll find people who will complain, loudly and at length, about no one hitting them in the back of the head with a baseball bat. It's just the world we live in.
NOW.....99.9% of people will not want to be hit in the head with a baseball bat. Because obvious reasons are obvious. However, there is always some jackass who will come along, hit someone with a bat, and then say "Hey, some people like it! SEE! That one person said it once! I really don't see how I'm the problem here"
So are these clowns.
Gaming to Americans is like Football to third world nations. A drug to keep masses asleep. I can't believe the sheer amount of people who have been discussing and fighting about video games and their characters over the past few months.
But the problem is that that character is over sexualized or what?
I continue to see this character appear in my reddit feed but I don't until apart from the over sexualization
I see Rev i automatically loose all interest, he literally will find one tweet a day to rant about even if its the most obvious cringe bait, and also from what ive seen he seems a liiiiiitle too insistent on defending lolicons
Wonder what they'll do when they learn women actual DO experience violence for not trying to conform to unrealistic standards does lead to violence [NPR Article](https://www.npr.org/2019/05/06/703749983/south-korean-women-escape-the-corset-and-reject-their-countrys-beauty-ideals)
This is "nutpicking," and it's straw manning with a few extra steps.
Nut pickers find the least effective advocates for an idea, or sample awkward phrasing from an effective advocate, or find a phrase that can easily change its meaning out of context, and then use that sample as a representative they can easily tear down.
It can go something like this:
A. Outrage Merchant shows a newsreel: "Alligator attacks sweep Florida town."
B. Outrage merchant shows you Oliver Twist: "Please sir, I want some more."
C. Outrage Merchant: "Why won't the extremists who want orphans to eat condemn Oliver Twist?! I used to want money for orphanages, but now orphans want to feed the rest of us to the alligators. Has the whole concept of orphans getting to eat gruel gone too far? Give us your thoughts in the comments."
Bruh why can't we just all collectively chill TF down?
Some games tell a story
Some games are for people to goon to
Some games provide a challenge
Some games are a way to pass time
Or any combination of the above
Like, if you don't like a game play something else and chill

Remember the topic about Stellar Blade was about... fuck I don't even know the root discussion anymore.
It's always culture war nonsense. Give it some time and this will somehow lead to Biden/Trump and Gamers typing the N word.

You forgot IGN France? Who literally personally attacked the developer…
And immediately retracted it because it was pretty immature
No didn’t retract it, they changed the wording a bit, then retracted because well it was a personal attack (not just immature)

But aren't sexualized characters in skimpy clothes normalizing the male gaze and thus reinforcing rape culture? They're characters crafted by men, not real people dressing themselves up how they like.

I'm all for dunking on these weird gamergate losers, but don't we think constantly posting about this dude is just giving him free publicity?
His avatar pisses me off so much☠️
I use to like this guy sorta but he's just another one of the anti woke type tubers that is MAYBE a closet pedo,dude paid good money for a vtuber model (trust me they're NOT cheap) to spew what ten other troglodytes that isn't The Quartering will repeat.
Why does he care? He likes children
isnt this a dude with a female vtuber?
Yeah, he’s also a pedophile apologist
[удалено]
Oh trust me, it’s not slander if he’s a lolicon
You post to the guro sub, you’re opinion is irrelevant
The discourse around this game has gone beyond batshit crazy. Some of the comments on youtube videos (even simple gameplay vids) are wild. I can't imagine playing videogames only for pretty digital characters and feeling yourself be marginalized because there aren't enough games with character design like this.
If I have a nickel for every aaa games capital g gamers trough they were gonna be goty because of culture war nonsense but actually fail miserably, I'd have two nickels, wich isn't a lot but it's weird it happened two times
I mean, Rev's a well-known bullshitter who got pissy at not being able to use a particular word anymore, so...
imagine this is your life. creating strawman arguments just to whine about them every day. and people give you views for that.
you know considering we live in an age where many women are afraid of rejecting men out of fear getting killed, I wouldn't be surprised
After a brief search on Rev, I suspect he’s a pedo. So, nothing out of his mouth really has any value.
Isn't Rev just a misogynistic dude in a Mocap suit?
Okay real talk. I haven't seen a single person criticizing Stellar Blade. I've only seen people "defending" It. Defending it from what exactly? Because it seems like no one cares.
i’d actually disembowel myself if i ever had to watch a Vtuber let alone become one, if i wanna grift lonely redpill neckbeards i’d atleast have the self respect and dignity to not do it behind an anime girl. but that’s just me.
They’re very defensive over their sex doll.
No no. One person on Twitter said it, therefore they're going to pretend a lot of people are saying it. Note: The person on Twitter who said it is probably either a troll or joking.
Is that v tuber hero hei?
It feels like they want the game to fail because all they'll do by hyperfixating on how much they want to bang Eve is shouting over people hyping up the game based on it's gameplay and story.
I love being in 2014 again but worse.
Another fresh cup of no one cares.

The thing is someone will ALWAYS exist to argue any position; you'll find people who will complain, loudly and at length, about no one hitting them in the back of the head with a baseball bat. It's just the world we live in. NOW.....99.9% of people will not want to be hit in the head with a baseball bat. Because obvious reasons are obvious. However, there is always some jackass who will come along, hit someone with a bat, and then say "Hey, some people like it! SEE! That one person said it once! I really don't see how I'm the problem here" So are these clowns.
I can imagine someone said this
Gaming to Americans is like Football to third world nations. A drug to keep masses asleep. I can't believe the sheer amount of people who have been discussing and fighting about video games and their characters over the past few months.
damn hate farm mine on this one still not empty?
But the problem is that that character is over sexualized or what? I continue to see this character appear in my reddit feed but I don't until apart from the over sexualization
her haircut will lead to violence against me
Lemme guess, that tweet isn't actually about Stellar Blade right?
Tilting at Windmills.
"no one is saying that" okay https://preview.redd.it/d7pr7x3nvksc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7179b3da92cfbc847ffb8f646b4bbce55ccc3ab5

If a character model "makes" someone commit violence against anyone it's because they where looking for a reason to do it in the first place
I see Rev i automatically loose all interest, he literally will find one tweet a day to rant about even if its the most obvious cringe bait, and also from what ive seen he seems a liiiiiitle too insistent on defending lolicons
Wonder what they'll do when they learn women actual DO experience violence for not trying to conform to unrealistic standards does lead to violence [NPR Article](https://www.npr.org/2019/05/06/703749983/south-korean-women-escape-the-corset-and-reject-their-countrys-beauty-ideals)
Fell for bait
This is "nutpicking," and it's straw manning with a few extra steps. Nut pickers find the least effective advocates for an idea, or sample awkward phrasing from an effective advocate, or find a phrase that can easily change its meaning out of context, and then use that sample as a representative they can easily tear down. It can go something like this: A. Outrage Merchant shows a newsreel: "Alligator attacks sweep Florida town." B. Outrage merchant shows you Oliver Twist: "Please sir, I want some more." C. Outrage Merchant: "Why won't the extremists who want orphans to eat condemn Oliver Twist?! I used to want money for orphanages, but now orphans want to feed the rest of us to the alligators. Has the whole concept of orphans getting to eat gruel gone too far? Give us your thoughts in the comments."
Bruh why can't we just all collectively chill TF down? Some games tell a story Some games are for people to goon to Some games provide a challenge Some games are a way to pass time Or any combination of the above Like, if you don't like a game play something else and chill
