Maybe you shouldn’t play those games, there plenty of other excellent games out there that are more easy on its players, even then games like Dark Souls and Bloodborne do have built in mechanics to make things easier, you can repeatedly defeat monsters in an easy area to grind for “souls” to over level yourself, or…

It’s not exactly a falacy, getting a male body allows her to use a bulkier heavier body without looking like an oversized female bodybuilder, an equally heavy or bulky female body (which is surely possible to make) would attract too much attention, not to mention would probably need to be custom made (i suppose they…

What a moron you are, she IS a Japanese person living in Japan and working for Japanese government within the story, that’s not my interpretation that’s a clear cut fact seen in every version of the character ever made.

No smartass, i work with facts not delusions and my impressions of what someone else intended.

You know it’s idiotic to call a specific case “everything”, this case is blatant disrespect to an iconic character that despite having many iterations through many mediums they all stayed mostly true to her aspects and features except this dumb new adapation, and it is also a stupid case of whitewashing taken to…

Irrelevant, if he wanted to create her as a western character he would have called her Sophia or Emma (just like the characters from Cowboy Bebop are all westernized), she IS a Japanese character from Japanese parents living in Japan and working for the Japanese government, the only thing western about her is the…

Where are you getting that info from, source please or it’s utter bullshit.

WTF are you talking about!!? She is Japanese in pretty much all versions of the characters, cyborgs are people and they have nationalities, if you can’t even tell the difference between a cyborg (a human with cybernetic limbs or body) and an android or robot (fully synthetic and has no race or nationality) you…

They don’t have to be 100% japanese, many half Japanese actors can still look the part and give the right impression.

“he was impressed by the respect being shown for the source material.”

You probably never will, ignorance is a bliss.

This choice of white actress to play an iconic asian character and them then resorting to CG to make her look asian has half-assed written all over it, in bold letters.

Race wise it is, most of the Hollywood actors and actresses are white males and females, unless you live in a parallel dimension.

Trying to push whitewashing under the rug and pretending it’s a non-issue is why we ended up with crappy movies like God’s of Egypt and Avatar, and it would have improved the movie a lot if they got the characters races and personalities right, i have little doubt about that.

Sure, it would be different, taking a good photo requires nuance and knowledge about lighting, visual depth and few other things, when copy a photo you are pretty much a xerox machine in human form, it’s technically impressive but has little artistic flair.

Yeah, that indeed would have been an excellent choice, i enjoyed “Edge of Tomorrow” a lot and they did a very good job adapting the original story by amercanizing everything while also keeping the essential core elements of the story intact.

Is the male character an exact copy of the emotionless Nadeshiko but just a male version of her!?, knowing visual novels it could be possible he would handle things very differently from Nadeshiko due to having a different personality, i mean there has to be a point in having the option to play two characters here,…

It’s a movie about giant robots kicking the butts of giant aliens, it’s obvious there has to be corniness, i think that was Del Toro’s influence since he saw the movie as a tribute to all giant robots and Japanese kaijū movies and i can’t blame him if that turned out corny, it wouldn’t work any other way, now they…

Yeah it’s a cool edgy design, but i agree they should have called her something else, just made her a totally new villain, it’s not like the Power Rangers continuity will shatter if a totally new villain was introduced.

Yeah, race probably won’t be an issue, except if they cast everyone as white people (cause you know only talented actors are white people XD), or they can screw up their personalities (like in Avatar the Last Airbender, getting a grumpy kid to play Ang was a terrible casting choice).
