They gave Jill a skort in the pre-order skin so you can't upskirt her in crawling segments, also made Jill a bit more of an assertive character. Saw a lot of the whiny gamer bros calling her a "bitch" for that exchange early on where she shuts down Carlos' flirting.

My badass female character who survives a zombie outbreak is assertive??

How can this be!?

Also, from some preview footage, for the crime of being rude in general to Carlos and Vladimir initially, two mercs working for the "We Love to Turn Children into Flesh-Eating Zombies for Giggles" Ltd.'s paramilitary.

Damn, I wonder what's her problem...

things run very slowly in the reich-wing world

They dislike it because its a goated game with the best version of Jill. I wanna know what made them mad about elden ring.

The only sin R3R made is not having this song in the game for this segment officially https://youtu.be/p5RSoNOTOqo

Body type A and B, there's a lot of transphobic gamer dudes who've locked onto it as an attempt to trans the kids or something. Also probably one of the ones malding about the whole Marika/Radagon thing (I've seen frothingfash call it "woke gender propaganda").

Is it still representation when it's the absolute worst person in the story who did a few genocides

[–] WittyProfileName2@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There's a depressing amount of Golden Order supporters in certain Elden Ring fan sites, it gets especially bad around discussion about Ranni and Fia where it just devolves into these weird little incel screeds.

Incidentally, Goldmask seeing the Golden Order is wrong and attempting to change it by wagging his finger at it works almost too well as a metaphor for libs 💀

>Calling Masayoshi Yokoyama who literally said Yakuza/LAD is made FOR Japanese Men first and foremost a "beta male cuck"

Also, the only bad thing REmake3 did was make it shorter than OG RE3. Not changing how Jill looks like.

who literally said Yakuza/LAD is made FOR Japanese Men first and foremost

Fujoshi Yakuza fans learning this omori-afraid

ETA: to be clear, Yakuza yaoi is based and I'm not making fun of these people, Yakuza belongs to yaoi fans of all stripes regardless of what he thinks.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 22 points 3 months ago

You know what, I support this. All games are woke and made by "beta cucks" therefore chuds must stay away from video games FOREVER.

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 19 points 3 months ago

Wait since when they don't like westernisation?

Why the fuck is Battle Network "woke"?

[–] AstroStelar@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

They added a general disclaimer that some dialogue is inappropriate for modern times and not representative of Capcom's current values. Some examples, courtesy of the ESRB:

The game contains some suggestive material in the dialogue (e.g., “Stop peeking! You Pervert”; "Her measurements are 33,22,33”; “You missed out on seeing [her] naked.”).

There's nothing visual going on, it's just "spicy" dialogue, but I support their decision to add a disclaimer. But merely acknowledging this is too much for these people...

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 4 points 3 months ago

That is the most asinine reason to call it woke. Lmao did they also whinge about Mafia II whose re-release also had this disclaimer? Or is that a chad game for these people regardless?

Jill's miniskirt isn't short enough i guess?

[–] Alunyanners@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

except in the REmake she's wearing pants

[–] Facky@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago

Then it definitely isn't short enough.

[–] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Wait, the wokes have MMBN? We've decisively won the culture war then, right?

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 7 points 3 months ago

If I had to guess? White woman hanging out with latin man
