After All That, Stellar Blade's Eve Is Nothing Like We Expected

Stellar Blade fans wanted Eve to stick it to the man, but she feels too tame and most reactions say she should have gone further.

"Stellar Blade fans wanted Eve to stick it to the man"

I haven't seen a single fan say that, honestly not even one, am I missing something

romulus236h ago(Edited 6h ago)

This whole article is a game "journalist" complaining becasue a video game character "isn't sexy enough". Is this really what it's come to?

The world is divided into two factions. Those who want 25% visibility of butt crack and those who fight for 26% visibility.

Hi friends, I recently came across an article https://valhallavitality.co... about PT-141 injections that caught my attention. Understanding how PT-141 can increase sexual arousal and satisfaction was a turning point for me in achieving a harmonious work-life balance. By prioritizing my sexual health, I have found new energy and focus to excel in my career while developing my personal relationships. If you're looking to revitalize your love life, I highly recommend checking out Valhalla Vitality's in-depth coverage of PT-141 injections.

Sony Censors Stellar Blade, But Grummz Has a Plan

The Stellar Blade battle isn't over, and distributor Sony has taken sides against its customers. Yesterday, reports came in that the highly-anticipated game had been censored in both the gore and at least one costume.
Mark Kern, the former Blizzard producer
who goes by Grummz on social media,
explained that Sony is almost certainly
responsible for this and outlines a plan for players to deal with it.

They are sending the reputation of gamers back to the 90s with this one.

This has got to be the saddest shit I've ever seen in the gaming community.

1Victor9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

@Zeref “They are sending the reputation of gamers back to the 90s with this one.”

Uh I disagree with that, back in the 90’s if a game didn’t had blood, skimpy outfits and violence it wouldn’t sale.
I would had said they’re Nintendo washing it.

Redemption-649h ago

"back in the 90’s if a game didn’t had blood, skimpy outfits and violence it wouldn’t sale."

You are joking right? There are numerous games that didn't have any of that and still sold well

Cacabunga8h ago

Strange i don’t think she’s more controversial than the Dead or Alive 2 characters back in the days.. some suits were just… too much but no one cared

KwietStorm_BLM1h ago

"Uh I disagree with that, back in the 90’s if a game didn’t had blood, skimpy outfits and violence it wouldn’t sale."

You made that up entirely, just to go along with the anti-censor narrative. You actually weaken an argument when you're completely disingenuous like that.

Michiel19891h ago

then why did Mortal Kombat have green juice instead of blood in some countries?

Reputation of gamers?

According to mainstream we are all sexist incel homophobes. Not sure our reputation can get worse...

Let them have their fun. This won't stop good games from being made but it may pause bad shit from happening...if I recall, battlefront 2 had some shit that people "cried" over.

fr0sty8h ago

You forgot racist... and for the most part, it's true.

fr0sty3h ago

You can tell exactly who they are by the way they talk... "It'll appease the marxists" ... "he's exactly the sort of leader the anti-woke movement needs" ... So yes, they are exactly that, sexist, incel, homophobic racists. Typical MAGAt ilk.

Crows903h ago

@frosty

Dumbest comment I've seen in a while. But tell me you don't know what you're talking about without telling me you don't know what you're talking about.

You don't personally know these people so you're just assuming.

But hey...if the "racists" are against gambling mechanics in videogames, overpriced garbage, releasing unfinished games, meaningful representation vs garbage tokenism, wanting quality games without gaas in single player games...they can't be that bad.

Armyofdarkness8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

It really is embarrassing. I’m playing it, it’s great. And she’s hot, also great. But would I give a fuck if I played as a middle aged bald guy with a son? No!

Hugodastrevas6h ago

Yeah, that's called God of War.

Markusb335h ago

so censorship is good ? no matter how small ? gore being removed is insane, just have it as an option.
Once you accept this type of thing it always snowballs, ask people who live in china. Main stream outlets call all gamers racists, and the worst of the worst, you couldnt get any worse. We are hated for liking attractive females, hated for not wanting more female leads, you cant win with activists, they are mostly failed political writers. They openly tell you they hate you and the hobby.

Eonjay4h ago

No you are hated because you don't realize that you are the ones doing the censorship. You say what women HAVE to look like. You are the once saying we HAVE to be racist. You are the one saying we HAVE to stop women leads. You are the ones saying we HAVE to have the types of characters YOU deem appropriate. That is censorship. You are taking your politics and trying to force it on gamers.

You give gamers a bad name. And we are gonna keep saying it to you realize that being a proxy for a made up political movement just allows people to weaponize you against their alleged enemies. A tool.

Crows903h ago(Edited 3h ago)

@eonjay

So tell me who had a problem with the way eve looks?

Nobody is calling for censorship of any games except the main stream media.

We are artificially hated and called whatever comes to mind to be as offensive as possible and also in order to discredit anyone that opposes mainstream media. Whereas all we say is let people do what they want...but then you got all these other business counseling devs about what is best for their games and it so happens to be what is worst since it puts politics and agendas into the development process.

porkChop4h ago

I don't really care about this game personally but what do you expect? Much of the marketing focused on the fact that the main character is hot and that the game isn't censoring anything regarding gore. If you market your game one way and then start patching out the stuff you marketed it's incredibly disingenuous. It's a bait and switch. Anyone who bought the game to support the anti-censorship approach has the right to be upset. It's not really about cleavage, it's about the dishonesty and false advertising.

Pyrofire954h ago

There's a lot more people not talking about it than talking about it.

DrDoomer3h ago

yeah, straight grown-ass men need big daddy corporation to tell them what they're allowed to enjoy. Meanwhile, stuff like full frontal male nudity and bestiality is perfectly fine.

VincentVanBro3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Every time I see a comment from you it’s ratio’d to hell lol you’re an idiot and you just can’t see it

This is one of the saddest pathetic shit I have ever seen. The videos are so cringey. All this over 6 inches of lace.

Charlieboy3337h ago

It is not about '6 inches of lace' you idiot. It's about promises made before release that changed afterwards because of a handful of psychotic people on the internet. It's about appeasing a bunch of men who have lost their balls and insecure jealous fugly women. The game is rated M and NOTHING should be censored for ANY reason.

Eonjay4h ago

It's their game. They can change whatever they want. If you don't find it acceptable you don't have to buy the game. That's how you show your support for the 6 inches of lace that made this worthwhile to you. There's a whole freaking skinsuit... but yeah, censorship.

Markusb335h ago

weird way to say your pro censorship no matter how small, interesting take

Deathdeliverer9h ago

Is it really this much crying over ONE costume? That’s insane. Apparently the game has over 50 but that just won’t do.

MrBaskerville9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

Supposedly they mildly altered atleast a handful.
But tbh, this is very funny. Game was proclaimed to be the savior of gaming by whiny idiots, now they are crying because of the smallest of changes.

jambola8h ago

Crying, aka complaining about something you don't agree with
But you're right, when it's small we should just ignore it
Because ignoring bad practices when they're small never had any problems

Huey_My_D_Long6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

@jambola Nah its literally crying. There is no such thing as compaining apparently to yall?
Were those article authors complaining? Ya know, the ones that made all these losers lose their shit. The like maybe 2 authors who I don't even agree with...I bet money, youd say these guys are crying over sexy bodies, but when you have an issue with the developer, its all of a sudden its a complaint, not crying.

I think both sides are fucking crying and I can't wait for this stupid arc to end. Hopefully the next one won't be as pointless...still will be pointless but less so than this one.

Markusb335h ago

exactly its only this its only that, until its something big and then its too late and everyone has accepted the small stuff. People are short sighted

jambola4h ago

@Huey_My_D_Long
well no, it's not literally crying at all, unless you have proof otherwise?
and I'll take my money now if you don't mind, because I don't say they're crying, because claiming people are crying just because they disagree is really stupid

Gameseeker_Frampt4h ago

@jambola

If you really are concerned about bad practices in the video game industry, why are you perfectly ok with supporting Shift Up - the developers of one of the biggest gacha games on the market? Are excessive MTXs and gambling ok now if the studio puts tits and a nice ass in on of their games?

jambola3h ago

@Huey_My_D_Long
not how a conversation works bud
you don't get to ignore my comment and ask more unrelated questions

MrBaskerville1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Complaining about extremely minor changes to a game where there's hyper violence and a skin suit, while yelling censorship is pure stupidity.

But Grummz is an idiot, so it fits.

Personally I think it's hilarious that the idiot brigade now has to boycut a good game that they previously championed. More of this!

Markusb335h ago

some gore elements have been removed also, what makes it worse is shift up made a statement saying no version worldwide would have censorship, then it did. This is the issue.

rlow19h ago

What amazes me is how a few out there can ruin the experience for the majority. These companies cater to the few and the majority just suck it up. Like I said in a previous post, posters taken down in resident evil today, tomorrow everything else…… they always start small and ramp up from there.
But hey it’s PlayStation and they know their fans will go ve them a pass.

MrBaskerville8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

They added 1 miligram of fabric and the skinsuit is still there. But yeah, this is a crisis!

Did you know that all character could have been naked, but the artists self censored themselves. Highly unethical and anti-gamer.

Eonjay4h ago

Lol totally agree. The change is so small I hardly would have noticed without this public mental breakdown.

rlow13h ago

It always starts small and ramps up. The very fact that they altered the game to appease a few loud critics should concern everyone. I want to experience a game the way the developer wanted. Not some committee sitting in a board room forcing said developer to alter that vision to appease a few critics.

The more you marginalize it the more power it gives to the gate keepers. It validates their decisions and invites more of this nonsense into gaming.

MrBaskerville1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

@rlow1
Except in this case it probably wasn't sony. I doubt they care, considering some of the stuff they are ok with in this game and others.

They made an extremely minor change and snowflakes got offended. Probably because reviews were good, gotta keep the grift going.

GeeEssEff8h ago

I think you’re mixing up the few and the majority here. The majority of people just want to play a good game, the few want to kick up a fuss because of a couple of aesthetic changes to what was shown in the run up. I’m having a lot of fun with it and unsurprisingly Eve’s outfits or the lack of racist graffiti has had literally zero bearing on my enjoyment.

boohoomycostume8h ago

You all did not just seriously use a geeks and gamers article for this stupid ass controversy lol
