Thatās going to gather some attention from the big publishers.
Would be interested what you fedis think about that?
edit: interested in opinions regarding the news as the game is surrounded by quite a bit of controversy, not ājustā the publishers part I mentioned.
What controversy? That it is a sex doll dress up game disguised as an action game?

I meanā¦I played it because it looked fun and I did. Yeah itās gooner bait but the gameplay is pretty good
It plays like babyās first souls like but thatās enough for me since normally I suck / donāt have time to practice
I really really wanted that Nier automata DLC to be story content instead of just consume masturbait. Even if it was a non canon crossover it would have been wild to have 2B and Eve fighting side by side
One bit thatās nice about being a gooner game is, thereās enough outfit options you can just pick something ācuteā and tasteful, and then just play the game. So while many people are ogling, people that are not as interested can just play the game.
EDIT: Adding onto this, though I consider myself a gooner I actually had the opposite reaction to Nier Automata, the gameās carbon copy. I didnāt quite like the bare-ass-thong look of 2B, and it felt like it was consistently distracting enough to make the gameās emotional moments feel silly. At the least, if I put SBās āEveā in a denim skirt, thatās my own choice.

Thatās exactly how I played it. I picked the motorcycle jacket and jeans / heels combo and red passion.
Plus I mayā¦or may have a thing for jeans and heels.
The naked or barely clothed ones just seemed absurd to me
One bit thatās a bit distracting about being a gooner game is the thought that the designersā minds were all over the gooner stuff instead of being focused on the game.

Thanks for the Denuvo comments, I looked it up and I am no longer interested in this gooner looking game.
While I agree that Denuvo is bad, some of the information on that site is just plain wrong.
For example, it says Denuvo doesnāt work on Linux and macOS through wine which is just plain wrong. It works perfectly fine as long as you donāt keep changing wine versions or you will run out of activations for 24 hours.
Your account being disabled if you have a problem with payment methods also needs a giant [citation needed] next to it. Has this ever actually happened or is this made up?

The only thing I know is that access to the specific purchase might get blocked, if thereās a payment issue. Not Steam directly, but a friend of mine once bought Diablo 3 for WoW gold on Battle.net, something happened after a while, and he lost access to the game, dunno if the other side refunded the game or whatever. All the other games still worked, but heād have to buy D3 again to play it. I would be surprised if Steam blocks the whole account.
If they mean you buy a game, then thereās a problem with payment, but they should still let you download and play, thatās dumb.
The part about Steam Support being extremely slow is also old news. I think thatās been a lot better for years now. I donāt know if it was around the time they were forced to implement refunds, but I think thatās all outsourced now, and you donāt have to hope a Valve dev checks the support mailbox anymore.

BG3 and Cyberpunk have boobs and were a success, which would support that statement. But Wukong, Palword, and Monster Hunter Wilds were even more successful (according to concurrent Steam players), which means animals are the true secret to success.

Well, some of the outfits are pretty close already, and they definitely have some jiggle, havenāt yet played it so I canāt say whether itās realistic.
Well, the fan service is a factor for sureā¦ (Seriously, I find the discussion quite hypocritical: Sex sells, most actors/singers are quite good looking and most block buster movies have a cast of sexy/good locking people displaying status symbols. That is not even mentioning product placing and other shit going on in popular movies/TV shows.)
A PS 5 original which is optimized well enough to run on the Steam Deck and some potatoes smoothly
Responsive controls
Great enemy design which telegraph their intentions clearly
No in game purchases or other dark monetization schemes
A complete game which seems mostly bug free (from what I heard so far)
Shift Up Corporation seems like a company of gamer which create the games they want to play themselves
Stellar Blade and Shift Up Corporation fully deserve a great start, and I happily payed the full price of admission w/o feeling bad about it.

Shift Up already had a great start lol, they printed money off the gacha games Destiny Child and Nikke. The Nikke fans who already owned Stellar Blade are currently pissed at them because the ones that already had it on PS5 got told if they wanted the collab bonuses theyād have to buy the game again.
Iām not sure why theyāre surprised, ShiftUp is the kind of company that sells $60 gooner skins. Itās honestly amazing to me that Stellar Blade has all the content it does without spamming out micro transactions.
Fair point, I stand corrected: I didnāt know about their prior practices.
Still, I keep that Stellar Blade itself was one of the best recent game releases I experienced, and the game itself is fun!

Tbf to them, one of the reasons both of those gachas were successful is that theyāre actually pretty generous by industry standards. Theyāll sell the gooners a $60 cosmetic skin and milk the whales of all they have but the regular players can get by fine without paying a dimeā¦
But they probably will anyways because waifus.

I remember when I first saw an ad for this game and thought it looked neat, added it to my wishlist and everything. I looked it up a few weeks/months later and all I saw were gooner posts, or articles about how sheās saving games with her jiggle physics. I removed it simply because I didnāt want to be involved with that community. It was so gross. š¤¢
I had the same reaction to it, but ended up buying it after looking into some gameplay. Iām glad I did because thereās a really enjoyable game outside of the āsex appeal.ā Combat is good and fun, thereās an interesting story there too. My only major complaint is that about 2/3 or 3/4 through the game it turns into a boss rush, and almost feels like the devs ran out of time or budget so cut some story.
As for the community, itās easy to get around that by just not taking part. Iāve avoided it for the same reasons youāre not wanting to play. Itās a shame there too because I imagine thereās well meaning people who truly love what the game has to offer outside of fan service, and would love to discuss lore, etc.
Yeah waiting for a sale is a good idea if youāre uncertain. I bought it full price on PS5 and donāt regret it because I felt got my money worth - spent enough time with it for multiple play throughs, platinum trophy, etc

Thank you for taking the time to give me a little glimpse into the game. I may wait for a sale then. Because I really did think it looked cool v

Sex sells, simple as that.
The gameplay is (apparently) also quite good, tbf.
