  Conservatives should be banning mods if they’re banning books. Games are for children, right? Right???

  Would be nice if this place could refrain from sliding into reactionary conservatism even ironically.

    The reactionaries are the ones championing this franchise

      I couldn’t make it through the whole 2hr essay, but I can’t disagree with some of his criticisms of the game. It’s just that they never bothered me, and I found the AAish quality of the game really cozy.

      I completely agree with him about just how manufactured the “woke outrage” seemed to be, though. I just fundamentally believe “woke” lost its meaning some time ago and doesn’t really define anything anymore. It is really handy for letting mindless culture-warrior types flag themselves, though. I certainly doubt the IGN article was the ONLY article criticizing eve’s character design, but I think it served as a great example of just how far up their own asses the anti-woke crowd love to be.

      If screeching puritans are going to get mad about some people liking to look at pretty ladies saving humanity from monsters (but who is the monster, really), maybe reconsider playing into the reactionary gameplan so enthusiastically.

      It’s hardly a patriarchal work. Eve is a badass respected for her skills working on behalf of The Mother Core… And who only wears stripper gear if that’s what the player wants.

      Now, if you want to talk about how they very clearly edited out some serious homophobia for the English release that’s another thing but Korea gonna Korea

  What a stupid article. But hey, I now know that Stellar Blade has been released on PC.

    I’m with you. Very puritan, kinkshaming article. Stellar Blade might not be my thing, but I know not to yuck people’s yum. One could take the opportunity to discuss sexual objectification, but apparently that’s off the table.

      I have a complaint for sure, there wasn’t a slutty outfit for Adam. This is outrageous and unfair.

  Josh’s articles seem to be bangers most of the time.

  41% is way less than I was expecting.

    I bet compared to the base game outfits it’s not even that high

  And this is a problem, why? Mods are from the community. It’s what they want to add or change in the game. You could probably get similar numbers for a lot of games.

  Hell, forget Nexus, look at lovers lab (or don’t if you wanna stay pure lol).
