I hope nobody is surprised by this. Microsoft is a plague upon every industry they touch.
Incels perfectly describe Stellar Blade and the country that created it. South Korea has the lowest birth rate in the world. Like many Asian countries, misogyny is still a problem and women have pretty much given up on relationships with men. It has gotten so bad that the government has just ended a ban on sex dolls so that the men of the country can have something to screw. Stellar Blade is a product of that environment and it amazes me to think that some want the rest of the world to be...

I think you must be pretty new to gaming if 4" of lace added to a game makes you think we are on a slippery slope where games can change from what you preorder to what you get. This has been happening for decades. Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield, The Last of Us Part 2, Bioshock Infinite, Watchdogs, The Division, No Man's Sky, Killzone 2, Aliens: Colonial Marines, and Fable just to name a few.
Concerned about games being changed post launch?...
@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?
Why is it that those who complain about people telling video game developers what to do are the first ones to create petitions telling video game developers what to do?
Everything that everyone raved about for months is still in Stellar Blade, but now that one costume was changed those pushing Stellar Blade have lost their minds. It's as if the narrative they created doesn't actually exist and they cannot cope. Do you really think that Sony, who paid millions for ...
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
What does living in Ukraine or Russia have anything to do with this?
Please describe what exactly the situation is here. These pinups were not in the original Tomb Raider 3 so that means that Embracer Group subsidiary Aspyr added them when they developed the remasters. Did they have authorization to add them to the game? Before this whole "controversy" over the game being censored, the news about the Tomb Raider 1-3 Remasters was critical of them for being di...
Yes, I did check. Smash JT from this article has no other Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered videos except for the one whining about the pinups being removed. Same thing with every other YouTuber I looked at who has been offended by this. They all do have plenty of victim videos and their faux outrage over just about everything that doesn't conform to their social agenda. Being constantly upset is big business in the world today.
I find the people who claim they don't like things being censored are completely in favor of it when it suits their social agenda. Just look at all those who whine about cancel culture are the ones busy banning books. The world has become a bunch of snowflakes who have to be offended all of the time.
Apparently Crystal Dynamics cannot take out some posters because it destroys the integrity of Tomb Raider 3, but changing the graphics and controls is perfectly ok. Th...
Is anyone surprised that everybody who is "upset" about this and making videos off of it didn't care at all about Tomb Raider Remastered before this? There is an entire industry built upon being upset by the slightest of things.
People saying this is ruining the nostalgia of the original Tomb Raider 3 yet there doesn't seem to be any screenshots of this monumental moment in gaming. TR3 came out in 1998 - they've had 25 years to upload a screenshot.
Everyone calling the character model ugly to fit their social agenda would probably be posting videos/articles complaining about Alien and The Terminator if they were released today. "Woke Hollywood is butchering female characters - instead of getting supermodels we are forced to watch Sigourney Weaver and Linda Hamilton!"
Nobody complained about the way the Kay Vess looked in the cgi trailer last year. Ubisoft didn't change the way the character model looke...

Except it isn't "the ONLY single player game in the top 10" - right above where it states that is the chart that shows Tears of the Kingdom, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and Hogwarts Legacy in the Switch Top 10.
Also remember that these reports are put together by analyst groups looking to sell their information to investors. They don't say where they get their information from and most of it is vague ...

If you only play Destiny 2 when they raise the level cap then you must have not touched the game in over a year. I see how it helps thinking a game is doing ok when you don't actually play it. It seems that the only people who think Destiny 2 is doing great and challenge every story about the game are the fanatics of its new owners. Current Destiny 2 players don't think the game is going well. Bungie knows the game is doing badly through sales and player...
How do you explain Bungie firing almost 10% of its workforce after sales were revealed if everything is going ok just like every other year?
You seem like a player completely satisfied with Lightfall - would you care to describe some of your favorite parts?
Looking at the current list of games available for preorder, this really isn't that impressive. Just 3 places behind Stellar Blade preorders in Destiny 2: The Final Shape - which preorder numbers were down 75% resulting in almost 10% of Bungie staff being fired.
No matter what, Resident Evil 5 is still a ridiculous game where Chris Redfield gets in a fistfight with a boulder.

If you think Dragons Dogma 2 is the only game being attacked here for microtransactions, let me refresh your memory.

"How do you get them in Monster Hunter World?"
You can get them free and if you still cannot make up your mind about the gender/race of your character after using your free voucher, then you can buy more. You can edit your character's hair, facial hair, makeup, and clothing for free without using a voucher.
None of these have anything do with gameplay, unlike the MTXs that you are defending.
None of the microtransactions in Monster Hunter World had any effect on gameplay - they were all cosmetic options. Combine that with free updates to the game as well as no ingame advertisements for MTXs and you'll see why players didn't complain. Compare that with Dragon's Dogma 2 where all the MTXs are gameplay items and you'll see why people are rightfully upset.
People defending Dragon's Dogma 2 MTXs because they are "easy to get" fail to ...
