So when someone at a studio like this comes out and insults you based on your race and tells you you're a mistake,do you just let it go and give them your time/money regardless.....huh,interesting.
I'm an Xbox player, I would not give them a fucking penny.

Until they fired said person at the very least.

looks great to me as well, loving the art style, music, and storytelling. As long as the main character doesn't feel the need to explain to me like I'm 5 why she likes girls and why I need to be ok with that, then I'm in.

I hate 'representation', and if you think about this, this game has poor 'representation' because everyone is black. But interestingly, I would consider this 'representation' done right. It fits.

So sick of people down playing short games. Jesus I don't need every game to be some 30+ hour marathon. I wont even get into the 80+ hour games. The main issue to me is the gameplay just looks very generic but everything else looks great.

I think games like this that last 12-15 hours is perfect!

"Representation"

They said the thing. Amazing.

How aren't these people learning yet? Talk about the game, the game and nothing but the game. The mere mention of DEI is rapidly becoming the kiss of death for entertainment properties. The fact that they're all about it out of the gate makes me think there might not be a lot of "game" left underneath it.

This thing is going to be about as successful as Hellblade 2

This type of game would be okay if it is 8-10 hours. In fact, any longer and it could easily overstay its welcome.

Quality > quantity every time. But I've yet to see quality in this game.

I won't buy this game but you are so right.

Silent Hill 2 remake was AMAZING but it was also 4-6 hours too long.

If the remake would have came in at like 10-12 hours I think it would be the greatest game of all time. Now it is simply excellent but not the goat.

As a general rule and due to intensity imho, 20 hours for action end of survival horror, 8 hours for pure terror no fighting back, SH2 remake should have been 12hours. The only reason it was slightly bloated is because they knew some people would not pay full price for a 10 hour game.

Is this out soon? I haven’t been following it really other than seeing some stuff about it at the developer direct earlier this year.

In terms of design etc I still think it looks like a ps2 gen game. Which isn’t a criticism really. Could be fun

It'll probably get shown again in the January dev direct and get a release date in April, if I had to guess. Just speculating.
