“Still really fucking weirds me out how much uncritical hype Stellar Blade is getting on this forum.

The game is grossly misogynistic on the surface and is developed by self-avowed anti-feminists, while attracting the worst kinds of fans/defenders (the "anti-woke" crowd) in other sectors of the internet.

I really don't get it”.

84 if it's a straight character action game. If it includes curve balls and great music, narrative, like nier automata it might get more points, but maybe some points are subtracted by sexualization. Some outlets will bash the game due to that matter.

The woman should sit in the chair, stay in the spaceship and be useless while the man is out fighting big monsters

Will nwver be tht low this will be easily over 80.
Doesn't look that good to me. I think the story will be ordinary and drag it down and there will be a minimum 5 point penalty for having a sexy female MC. Kinda like Days Gone got penalised for a white male MC

Did uncharted get penalized for that also?

Why is an attractive female protagonist "misogynistic"? If the MC looked like an Ogre like Abby from the Last Of Us 2 that would be acceptable?

I played the demo. Boss battles are the highlight. The normal combat (aka fighting regular mob) was also ok, one thing I really like is that the combat is about dodging, then getting in. Hammering attacks on enemies or bosses never work, so you have to learn how the game wants you to play it.

Characters talk way too much, this is subjective but for a dystopian world that is ending/earth is dying or whatever (if I understood the theme correctly) it's too much, even if the theme is different, I feel like for this kind of game I don't want the characters to keep talking all the time. (But my favorite genre is soulsborne, where your main character doesn't utter a single word throughout the entire game so I might be biased in that judgment).

Scanning the environment to locate where enemies and loots are kind of kills exploration and surprises, and getting backstabbed by enemies :).

I will play it eventually, I guess, but I'm not really hyped for it or in a rush.
