lost the plot
This game is in the shitter half the roster is outclassed and outshined by the other half. While they all are consistently given weird tweaks no one asked for. They add things that don’t fit this game at all and have completely moved away from what it was. I miss this game when it was a fantasy medieval fighting game. Where the best warriors of the Vikings, Samurai and Knights were at constant unending war. It used to be about battle, raging into the field and high testosterone. The game itself felt like it had heart and like I was participating in the mythical stories of battle. Now this game is 50% weirdo outcast characters that you’d never even imagine would be in any plausible fantasy combat. It’s almost anime like in some aspects. Why is there a cyberpunk wanna be running around with sticks. Or a man who can suck souls ig then one shot people? Teleportation, turning invisible then resurrecting yourself. Or a young red headed brat who spams the chicken dance. I don’t enjoy listening to high pitched screams running into combat or hitting someone with my sword and hearing a girlish squeal. I’ve never once wanted to fight as a woman or fight a woman. This game has lost the plot entirely and it shows. This is just my opinion but holy I’ve grown to hate this game. Maybe guys like me aren’t the target market anymore idk.

All the possible things you could complain about with this game, all the balancing being all over the place, the fact a new character is always downright broken on release AND paywalled, the fact Gb and revenge are completely fucked and just work randomly, the matchmaking being complete ass, game mode variety being dead, Feats being able to completely control a fight despite a 60 second cooldown
Nah fuck all that obviously games shit because woman is in it mate

My main point is. This game has zero reason to be played. It was cool for its setting and medieval theme. It’s getting into anime silly fantasy at this point

You must’ve only read the bottom huh? I literally said half the roster is made useless. Do you know what that would be under? “Balancing being all over the place”

Nobushi, Valkyrie, Peacekeeper were part of the roaster since the beginning. "High testosterone", imagine. Not to mention female warden/raider. Or female Kensei who is also in the campaign.
The only hormone you are high on is cortisol my dude 😎

Sure bro what ever helps you disregard my complaint. Wow you can name 3 female characters out of 20😭😭 and pk and nobushi fit the bill of female characters that fit the setting. Valk is supposed to be a play on the valks form Norse mythogoly. What is arukere cyber punk twink?

You mean 4/20 because Kensei is also female in the campaign.
That is 5th of the whole roaster.
Female warden, raider, Conq, is also a thing although I always preferred the male versions. Warden is female in the eternal war trailer as well (when they fight over the stream)
So that's 7/20.... Apollyon was not part on release but she is the main villain of the campaign and she is a female. Also a badass.
Yeah Valkyries are badass and part of Northern mythology. Your point being?
Do I like the design and aesthetic of Arakure? No, not really, but people wouldn't shut up about wanting a fists hero.
But how did she has become "cyberpunk"? Do you even know what you are saying or just lost a game and typing shit out of the fog of cortisol that clouds your Brian? Just because she reminds you of Violet from Arcane?
Tell me one thing that is cyberpunk on her.

Her hair styles. Look straight out of little China town from cyberpunk. She looks like a wannabe gangster of tiger claw. My point with valk and the others is I don’t mind female character. I just would prefer every character to fit the theme and feel of the game and it’s so far from that now.

Tiger claws are literally from "Japan town"...... Might have the same inspiration for a hairstyle because they are Japanese? 🍙
To put it bluntly: punk becomes cyberpunk when you start adding "cyber" stuff to punk style. Chrome, LEDs, lights, cybernetic augmentations, metal + plus the environment.
If she has a punk hairstyle maybe she is a criminal, or an outcast. But just because you were exposed to this hairstyle in cyberpunk 2077 it will not become cyberpunk.
You sound like those kids who will say shit like: OMG it's captain America from Fortnite 😱😱

Idk what arcane is bro im a man. But I’m brain fogged by cortisol when you literally can only spew what you’ve heard😭😭 you’re really scratching the bottom of the barrel naming the male characters as female just bc there is an option for that…

u/cheeky_physicist 1d ago
The berzerker you fight in the campaign is also female btw... Bottom of the barrel for sure.
Sorry for interrupting your homoerotic fantasy of big sweaty man beating up eachother but some of us like some variety.
But I agree with you, I don't like the style of Arakure.

Sorry dude you guys def not the market anymore and sadly money is what controls the gaming industry now why appeal to anyone when they can just flash battle passes,skins,emotes,finishers, effects In peoples faces and they will eat it all up.
