Yeah even putting this situation aside I wasn’t that gassed for GOY. I played GOT and enjoyed it sure, but it was yet another typical open world action-adventure game with no innovation at all really, basically the same gameplay we’ve seen countless times at this point. It just had a halfway decent story, which is a low bar for video games, and looked really pretty. And what you say is very true I agree, “by weebs, for weebs”

Which is even more jarring when you realize they have been leaving Erika Ishii to be a lightning rod for all the chud hate basically since this was announced. No support for the face of their game but abrahamic god forbid someone make an incredibly mild “mario and luigi” joke.
Which is even more fucked (and yet actually makes perfect sense) when you remember this is the same studio that did a game about a Native American rebelling against a fascist corporation that took over Seattle. And then you remember they had Troy Baker voice said Native American and… yeah.
Real shame. I liked Ghost of Tsushima a fair bit (even if it was very clearly written by weebs, for weebs) and was planning to grab this as a goofing around game. But I guess sucker punch just saved me probably 80 bucks or whatever this was going for.
