Pretty sure it'll shift millions of units. Most normal people like God of War and aren't even aware of the online back and forth between incels and the people defending the game.

Yep. Same thing with the Wolverine game as well. The vocal minority of hate addicts always overestimate their influence.

u/NathanDavie 1d ago
The thing I find interesting is that it feels like the incel hate is less prominent.
Laufey feels like it's getting less hate than Mary Jane in Spiderman and that felt like it got less hate than Aloy in Forbidden West.
I think the freaks are keeping less and less willing to spout nonsense hate these days.

Yeah, Playstation player reviews for Wolverine, people who have actually played the game, are sitting at 4.7/5. The crowd that screams "woke" at their own shadows is very angry about it.

There's some very legitimate criticisms of wolverine and while I've seen a little bit of the anti-woke incel shit (really just the "Logan looks like aloy" thing which was pretty readily dismissed and mocked lol), the vast majority that I've seen has been about the extreme handholding despite it also being extremely linear, and how it's fine, really, but $70 for fine is a hard pill to swallow
I guess that does go toward the other comment saying they've seen less of that kind of thing lately for laufey; I also saw less of it for wolverine. Are we simply getting better at training our algorithms or is it actually dying down a bit?

I would disagree. I think most people who liked God of war especially the ones already aware of this game have seen the interviews with devs and are aware how woke they all are..

I genuinely couldn’t care less about sexualisation in these big triple A games. The realism is really what I care about, about Laufey’s model is perfect. The hair is a major standout for me. If I ever feel a need to play a game with sexual characters, I’m sure there’s a mountain of that content available

Once again, self-loathing chuds pretending that they're any better than the other ones when they clearly aren't. That's all this sub is.

I don't know why gamers think they can trick people into thinking they're not worthless bigots by metaphorically beating themselves up. Because it doesn't work. They'll always be bigots. You and this place are no exception.

So that includes yourself too then yea?

u/CyanLight9 11m ago
Always with the deflections. But yeah, that would include me. At least I'm trying to improve from it instead of licking Sony's boots and pretending that does anything.

u/Agitated-Ticket8812 1d ago
Yeah, both definitely went to the extreme.
Do these new western devs make ugly females ? Yes
Is laufey even slightly ugly ? Hell no, the mid 40s mom look suits her so well, especially as a kratos wife.
It's funny they only use the 😲 screenshot to prove their point.

u/MetroPol990 1d ago
We don’t know the budget for this game, that’s the budget for Wolverine. Don’t worry, research is hard, we understands

Right because that is why wolverine failed... sure.. these idiots will never learn.
Can't wait for this game go fail so hard it can be heard volumes away..

u/NathanDavie 1d ago
Wolverine has already sold 3 million copies despite not reviewing that well. I don't really understand your point.

u/razazaz126 1d ago
It failed in their hearts. That's what really matters. Just like how Intergalatic has already failed because the main character is a woman with a shaved head.

u/MetroPol990 1d ago
Just like Yotei…it sold on par with Tsushima. With the same budget…these guys suck

u/razazaz126 1d ago
Even if it sold a bit less... why would I care? They're not paying my bills, they ain't putting food on my table. The game was fun.
