This game completely broke them

Can we please just leave the culture war nonsense to reddit? There is no grand conspiracy to "hide" this game.

This video covers the topic quite well: https://youtu.be/WPsSguYNHpk

This weird little persecution complex came out of nowhere. The post-gamergate crowd randomly latched onto this game thinking it's somehow gonna own the libs, and when no one gave them the reaction they wanted, they decided to declare themselves the winner of a battle nobody was actually fighting them on.

No one cares bud. Go play your game, whatever, have fun, no one's stopping you.

Lame. Why this gamergate bs? What’s next? you gonna make a KotakuInAction community. Get blocked

Is there a culture war bingo generator somewhere? I think I could fill a card or two on this alone.

Why, yes, I'm broke, but I doubt Stellar Blade has anything to do with it. It's mostly because of the shifting economic and political landscape of today.

Thanks for asking, though!

Stellar Blade is a good game.

Also worth mentioning that I learned from this video that Shift Up removed the Playstation region lock that caused the Helldivers 2 controversy universally, so they get kudos from me.

"Hide" is such a stupid concept when it comes to anything online. I guess this generation didn't see the Streisand effect first hand.

Most game media/advertising/reviewing is garbage and cannot be trusted. I play games that look fun. I have a particular definition of fun specific to me alone. I'll watch actual gameplay to decide if it looks fun to me. I might watch technical reviews and benchmarks that tell me if my hardware will be able to play it. IDGAF what culture war moralizing poop that some idiots want to headline it with and babble about to get views on their articles and channels.

I don't think Stellar Blade looks like the kind of fun I personally enjoy so I'm going to pass, but I'm not going to judge or shame anyone who's enjoying the fuck out of it because there's nothing to shame. It's a game. It's made to be played and be fun for people to play. Have fun. Don't worry about the drama storms. They're pointless and devoid of meaning.

He makes some good points about gaming journalism. It's a joke.

I am playing Stellar Blade and I'm having a lot of fun.

That's it.
