Why didn't this game cause more uproar with SJWs and the like...

cause playing it makes me feel bad

sjws only target games that make people happy because thats what pisses them off. knowing people enjoy things when they are incapable of it

Some tried to target it, but there were people that would normally target those games that saw that it was actually a good game. So the people that targeted it got shot down, because they had a very narrow viewpoint on it.

Isn't it funny that the majority of girls wanted to cosplay as her, because they too found the character to look nice, (i'm not talking about attention whoring incel milking pro cosplayers, i'm talking about amateurs) while all the sjw where screeching about the sexualization and objectification of women in various games?
Is there dare I say a discrepancy in what the real world believes likes and wants and what the mentally ill sjws want to pass as real and correct, eternally reverberating in their checkmark echochambers?

>Why didn't this game cause more uproar with SJWs and the like?
It did? Maybe you forgot when it was announced it was shit on for fashion and shit. Just like Drakkengard 3.

Western AAA devs capitulate instantly to twitter crazy leftist criticisms. Japanese devs ignore them. Without the continued drama dripfeed of dopamine, SJWs move on in search of easier targets.

2b is literally was made for cosplay.

They had less influence over Japanese games so didn't give them as much attention. Nier ended up being a sleeper hit.

That's changing now so if it came out this year and in the following years they would complain about the outfit and androids not having monkey faces.

social media was a mistake, this much we know

female edgy protags. its not strange A2 looks like a feminist/strong woman to them and 2B looks like a edgy tumblrina
also 9S works as shota. SJWs love shotas.

The game is amazing, and the true ending sequence is capable of reducing you to an emotional sobbing mess by the time you finish it.
Given how these retards are dominated by emotion, there's no way they can go against something that affects your so deeply.

>It did?
It caused more uproar than it did? That's impossible, dipshit.

Nobody other then weebs who eat up shitty games with waifu bait cared about it and didn't just jerk off to the porn.

But more to it than that.. Women want someone to project on to but at the same time don't like other attractive women. No different than those Japanese games where it's a male lead and lots of females and male competition is absent.

because the myth of the SJW doesn't actually exist outside of hyper-inflated, insular, singular instances that are used solely to make permavirgins seethe

it's like when the new doom game had a joke about demons using the same language as immigrants and all of maybe three green haired gender studies majors tweeted about it once and then dozens of anti-SJW youtube channels made videos about those singular tweets and painted it as SJWs getting mad the world over when no one actually gave a shit

this is literally what always happens, one person writes an article or makes a tweet about it and then every screeching autist anti-SJW pretends that it's some grand conspiracy by thousands of blue-haired college kids to destroy the sanctity of gaming or whatever nonsense

and you faggots fall for it every. fucking. time.

le anime bum trigger sjws xd

it did cause an uproar
but the devs didnt give a shit
taro asked people to make a collection of all the 2B porn and send it to him
the sjws had no power over him

its literally because 2B has small tits, if it was big tits and a big ass they would have had a tranny meltdown

*emil is a gay magical boy and Kaine was a tranny

Mobs can only hurt people who care about their opinion.
Look at Trump. For any other president, getting caught fucking a pornstar would meant their career is over. He knows other people know, he just decides to not care about it. Thats why the left is seething 24/7. They know exactly how worthless their voice is to anyone who does not care.
There were a few questions to Yoko from the same kind of journalists and he answered "because I like girls". That was the end of the discussion.

Nothing makes people more furious than other people ignoring them. It's mainly the left that went completely mental but if you take at look at incels for example, its the exact same thing. No one is actually mean to them, they are just being ignored.

sony falls for it every time
i believe their reputation for censoring games and strongarming developers will come to affect their sales in years to come

maybe set the difficulty higher if normal is too simple for you, you low iq retards

The real answer is that nobody cared about this niche game so it wouldn't be productive to attack it

It doesn't.
It's pretty mediocre when it comes to the actual gameplay.
This game only gets praise because of braindead waifu fags.

It does get targeted, but everyone who actually played the game tells them that they're retarded (pic related).

is that a bad thing?

Has she left Giantbomb yet?
I want to start watching their content again one of these days.

>Has she left Giantbomb yet?
No, sorry user

SJWs actually liked it. I remember that cunt Rami Ishamel or whatevr he´s called fawning over it

Has Giantbomb ever made something worthwhile apart from the Persona 4 Endurance Run?

not really. im just saying easy games are praised or dont get criticism nowadays

who? what did she do?

Is there any good ARPGs out there besides From soft games and KH1-2FM anyways?

Like what? 2B's butt? Something that is an ludicrously small and irrelevent part of the game? I really don't know what you think would offend SJWs in this game.

They actually tend to like creative or meaningful game mechanics, like deleting your saves to help other people. They really wouldn't typically like the character design however, and I'm sure you could find many examples of them lambasting it for the "male gaze".

KH3

Camera always pans to it when you run.

>KH3
7/10 game at best

>Implying games "journalists" played the true ending
Without a don't if those people made it past the first mission or two they stopped at ending A and thought that was it, then complain the game was unsatisfying

No one would have cared if Sony censors the games just like how the Switch does. But no they had to go full retard.

She just hit her second year. I don't think she's going anywhere unfortunately. At least GB Prime is mostly free of her taint... until GotY rolls around again.

Nah it's a 9/10, sorry your expectations were too high

I liked that moment where Jeff was interviewing Phil Spencer and asked him when he was planning to stop shipping broken games.

Because those whiners have an obtuse impact on this industry

This game is god awful in every way possible. Combat is shite, story is shite, the world is shite.

The city is Sonic 06 is better than the shitey desolate city in Near a tomato.

I don't even like Persona as a series much, and I still think that's one of the best Let's Plays out there

Witcher series
Diablo and Path of Exile
Divinity games
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
new God of War
Tales of series
Nioh
Ys series

There's plenty of decent stuff out there.

All the female characters are attractive and have likeable personalities

not really? are you sure you're not looking at it because you want to?

What a great original comment

Who cares what they get mad at?

There was a lot of outrage. Nips just don't give a shit about white tumblr whales and Lolygon "journalists"

Gameplay is bad, main story is garbage, the real story is one of the generation, characters are likeable, music is amazing, 2B has ass and not tits, what's better than that?

After you finally don't get the Broken [W]ings.

SJWs obviously exist, the issue is that they never can agree in what standards to use when judging shit.
I remember when SNK Heroines was being attacked for the fanservice at the same time that everyone was going "mommy Ivy please step on me" due to the new Soul Calibur game.

Abby Russell from Giant Bomb. In the 2017 GotY awards they do, she shit on Nier strictly because of the fan service while simultaneous tried to push Dream Daddy the dating sim for women and gays that's 100% fanservice.

>the combat is shit and by far the worst part about the game
you again? fuck off already.

Because I'll let you in on a secret.

SJW's only care when they know they can win. They can win when they are dealing with a hyper cuck dev/publisher that admits defeat by apologizing. Nier is not one of those. Nor is it something the (((media))) can get a lot of controversy clicks with.

Why was A2 so shit? She ruined the whole episode!

Because she was way cuter

There should've been someone in the plot to stop 9S's wild ride and she was the only candidate.
Unfortunately she is nowhere nearly as batshit crazy and interesting to follow so she ends up feeling extremely flat and hamfisted.

Because the Yea Forumsirgins create enough of an uproar and shitstorm for three planets' worth of SJWs. Just look at this thread.

Attached: 1465014291662.jpg (626x344, 39K)

No need for timestamp she voiced her opinion, everyone dismissed it and then she just kept coming back to it the whole fucking podcast. She just would not let it go.

A2 was great
9S is the one who ruined the game

Stop giving SJW’s attention you sheep

You call this thread an uproar? Wow lad

What a good post. Have a hacker on me.

>twink
>entire game is him trying to not rape 2B
?

Is that actually from the game? that hair texture looks terrible. Can someone make a webm without graphics at their lowest?

9S is a fucking cornerstone of the story.
Sorry that you got cucked out of your waifu.

Most likely ps4

That's just due to low resolution but the game itself isn't winning any graphics awards. It's very much a late ps3 era game.

You're not refuting his point at all. 9S had too much screentime and effectively ruined the second half for anyone who didn't care too much about his emotional outbursts.

It is tame compared to the thousands of threads before.

9S has 50% of the story to himself because he is the fucking protagonist.
Anyone who got baited into playing Automata because of 2B fully deserve the bait and switch.

They'd have a hard time making an argument with these two walking around.

Because nobody played it. Only japs and weebfags did.

... Yes and that's why he ruined the game from that point of view. It has nothing to do with expectations. We're discussing the game as a whole after playing through it.

He even got resurrected by alien magic

Absolutely this. For every actually triggered SJW there are 10 haters going: SEE, THESE BITCHES ARE TRYING TO TAKE MY GAMES AWAY.

>ruined the game from that point of view
That point of view is shit and is irrelevant.
>We're discussing the game as a whole
And as a whole it's a story about Number 9's wild ride and not your waifu fantasies.

fucking nips and their otter mode aesthetic

>That point of view is shit and is irrelevant.
Great argument! this ends the debate.
>And as a whole it's a story about Number 9's wild ride and not your waifu fantasies.
It could have been done differently, and better. For example with a character who doesn't become a caricature!

Literally a saint figure of his own game.

I honestly don't know. They actually love it, I see a ton of otherwise obnoxious social justice types praising it/Taro and the weird part is they're not randomly claiming "x character is trans/gay/a nigger" like they usually would when they decide to enjoy something good.

and the tweet makes 4K-10k followers and is covered and laundered by a bunch of sjw news sites

Yeah but it's just low res and really zoomed in

>For example with a character who doesn't become a caricature!
So far the only caricatures here are waifushitters who got blown the fuck out.

You just don't care because he's a boy screaming about muh feelings. If it were a girl instead you'd be praising the character.

Because the devs give no fucks, Yoko Taro already said that he really likes women when a SJW asked him about the heels of 2B

no way, SJWs circlejerk? Who knew! It's almost like they use their echo chamber places to spam the same ideas over and over! Almost like a certain imageboard I know with just as much outside relevance!

If it were a girl with the same personality and amount of screen time it would still be annoying.

what are you even talking about

do you even understand how outrage culture is working
today even BBC copy and paste literal nobodys outrage tweets

Sounds like a personal issue.

>why don't you like a character who has boring gameplay, whose personality consists of occasional outbursts of screeching, and who takes up a massive chunk of the game?
Nier went through similar things and he wasn't completely unbearable.

Actually someone tweeted taro about the fanart of 2B, probably trying to get a comment of disaproval, and then he asked people to ssend all the fanart to him.

>sjws don't exist
>omg this so much this
>actually they do and they have a lot of influence on the medium
>HUH WOW SHERLOCK YA THINK? SAME THING BOTH SIDES
????????

Nier didn't watch Yonah die brutally in front of him, you dumb fuck. That's not even comparable. Shadowlord who DOES watch his Yonah die in front of him reacts by screeching in the same way and basically suiciding against Nier so you're fucking wrong on that count too.

Do you also not understand how that doesn't reflect a widely shared opinion? Conflict sells. Let's have a climate change debate with 3 scientists and some Trump dickrider that ignores the facts so we can seem impartial but actually just make sure the conversation is framed as a "50/50" discussion when the vast majority of both the general public and scientists think climate change is real. Having that 1 crazy person on the panel sells. Some pink haired landwhale going on a tantrum about bikinis in games are not voicing A: the general public or B: even the majority of feminists.

I clearly said they DO exist and I also stated that the medium they use is not relevant but merely a subculture of a subculture echo chamber. If you honestly believe SJWs are rampant and changing every aspect of life you are just as brainwashed by the media as them.

He goes nuclear and then has a monologue about how he failed before getting a semi-happy ending after reuniting with Yonah after they die. Nines screams and falls down a hole while killing robots, dies like a retard, and then gets an asspull happy ending.

It caused such an uproar that it destroyed Giant Bomb's credibility in a single night.

The Shadowlord made bad choices that caused the end of humanity because he didn't try to communicate with the Replicants. He dug his grave and rested in it. 9S snaps much worse because things were much more stacked against him from the start and his existence was basically engineered to be as cruel as could be, so he is given a happy ending and the possibility for a better future.

That was one of the arguments. The camera kinda goes lower to the ground than other 3D games though to be fair.

I'm replaying it these days, and I have to admit its replayability is lacking. The combat isn't particularly engaging, and I've already experienced the story.
It was an amazing ride the first time around, though.

i ampretty sure this is reset era astroturfing

>2B looks like a edgy tumblrina
If only tumblrina looked like 2B.

I saw a lot of reviews stressing the fact that you need to play the game again to unlock the full story, so at least some of them did theur job and truly enjoyed the game.
