Way Of The Samurai 4 To Feature Shocking Rape Mini-Game

TheScrubDaily:"Lately, games have been coming with a few more inappropriate scenes that involve sexually attacking women. It was the “in thing” with the new Tomb Raider game, and now niche samurai game Way Of The Samurai 4 will let players pounce on unsuspecting NPCs. Just how many more games will force us to commit horrific crimes?"

First, Way of the Samurai 4 came -before- the new Tomb Raider, which I don't believe is even out yet.

Second, WotS4 is already released, so it's not "to feature," it already "features." If you're going to write, learn how.

Third, the mini-game basically involves sneaking into a woman's room for some pre-marital sex. It's not rape, it's nowhere close to rape, let alone bestiality or pedophilia (goddamn this writer is a ****ing moron) and the practice, aside from being -extremely- common in the past, is also a staple of most "adventure" fiction from -every- culture. You don't get to layer hyperbole and bigotry on something prevalent literary traditions of every major culture, from Genji to Lupin to the goddamned Eleventh Doctor.

tl;dr if you say stupid shit, I will call you out on it you stupid ****ing twit.

1. That is explained in the article.2. Same deal. 3. It is an article making fun of news stories that don't knw anything about video games,.which is obvious from the article. There is even a disclaimerat the bottom! Too bass

Edit like this because it's been too long and I was on my mobile phone:

Too bad this is N4G, where there are serious articles like this. So far, Wots4 is a huge contender for GOTY for me. Sorry for the confusion.

No Samurai Shodown in this list. This article is a failure

autobotdan645d ago

This article is a complete failure. Samurai Shodown is the most famous 'samuai video game series of all time. Samurai Shodown should have been at the beginning of article

LoveSpuds645d ago

No love for Fist Samurai or Second Samurai on Commodore Amiga?! Outrageous 😄

Umb645d ago

I know right. How about Lords of the Rising Sun by Cinemaware on the Amiga.

Maybe by the author is too young to remember those masterpieces, or I'm too old and have experienced them!

Cosmoplayer84645d ago

For me the onimusha series is the best samurai game ever made!

MWH645d ago

The fondest feudal japan game experiences i had were Samurai Shodown and Onimusha, especially Onimusha 1 and 2, they were the best of the best.

Replay and Investment in Way of the Samurai 4

Bit Cultures writes: Great video games incentivize players to return time and time again. Some games accomplish this through collectibles, a new game plus mode, harder difficulty levels, multiplayer, or different play styles. Bulletstorm, while an absolute raunchy, “arcadey” thrill and one of my favorite games, only witnessed a single playthrough. The mature banter, kill combos and over-the-top moments kept me hooked, but left me wavering after the campaign. Games such as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Fallout: New Vegas and the Mass Effect series, however, easily garnered second, third and sometimes even fourth playthroughs. There are tons of nuances in these games to bring players back into the digital worlds. Similarly, Way of the Samurai 4, a third-person, hack and slash role-playing game, utilizes many elements from the latter three titles in order to keep players playing. The one major difference between replaying Way of the Samurai 4 and the other grand RPGs, however, is a player’s investment of hours in the campaign. A single playthrough of Way of the Samurai 4 may take up to anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. Through creative use of a choice-driven story line, a rewarding new game plus mode and a variety of unlockable items and weapons, Way of the Samurai 4 offers a replayable campaign without the burden of dedicating absurd amount of hours to a single playthrough.
