Disgraceful corporate behavior, I am glad that channels like Gamers Nexus have the clout to call this out.
I got it as part of this month's Humble Choice and so far I concur. It is also getting review.....bombed.....upwards?

And the apologists, shills and grifters who defend this will unironically label anyone who notices as an incel loser who has never seen a woman in real life before despite the fact that the models are based on real woman who look far more attractive than their in-game counterparts 🙄
Rumored to be the latest PSN port....

Not really unexpected considering all the other ports.
The only retarded conspiracy theory is the one which claims that the ongoing PC culture war in the West which has enveloped all popular forms of entertainment (TV, movies, comedy, comic books, tabletop games, sports, etc) has somehow overlooked video games. 🤣🙄
I am not a huge fan of PvE hoard co-op games, but I have to admit I am addicted to HD2. Just so much fun and the weapons feel visceral and satisfying.
All the mechanics would be great for a PvP game.
Nah, its just your weird imagination that some publishers/devs (particularly Western ones) have a bizarre fetish about making females game characters ugly now.
That's your perspective, there are plenty of people who lean the other way and many of them do not fall into your ad hominem "rage baiter" category.
And as demonstrable from your mentality, the DEI grifters and apologists rely on your apathy to keep pushing the boundary until this bullshit is...
Nope, because you are conflating the politics which may form part of an overarching narrative that players engage with and is inextricably part of the story telling, versus the politics of pandering by making small subversive changes to meet DEI objectives and pander to a tiny minority. Please...
Stop using false equivalencies because that is not what I said in relation to this specific game. What I complained about is that:
(a) they did not need to give Aloy a masculine fat potato head;
(b) that head is actually inconsistent with the original model from the first game;
(c) moreover, it...
Are the male characters' faces designed to pander to a tiny minority of mouth breathers and distracting enough to break the immersion of the game? If not, more power to you as well. Frankly I play games to escape reality, not to have someone else's politics and ideology shoved in my face.
If you are happy for all female protagonists in games to eventually look like chicks with dicks, then more power to ya.

Pretending this isn't intentional isn't going to make it go away, because it is in fact very deliberate design decisions.
I don't doubt that, but it is still unfortunately the case that dip shit suits are metacritic whores who base decisions on critical reception from hack game journalists...
Very true, but I do think that it impacts the prospects of sequels when there is a poor reception from these useless hacks. Just look at Days Gone, has sold over 9 million copies and was a damn good game, but Sony refused to greenlight a sequel...
Would probably be trending closer to 90% if not for hack game journos maliciously review bombing the game. Too bad for them that everyone has caught onto their antics.
Star Control 2 is also free to play on Steam if anyone wants to experience some 90s nostalgia.

Fred Ford and Paul Reiche are helming this so one would expect it to be better than the trash Star Control 3 made by Accolade in the 90s.
Although I adored the original, this is looking a bit too...
Price is a different issue but Samsung is one of the scummiest tech companies in existence and treats their customers like garbage. Generally I avoid Samscum at all costs unless there are no viable alternatives, and I certainly would not buy anything from them direct.
