Ignoring the obvious strawman that this guy thinks it was "a good idea"....

It's their game. I prefer female avatars when I play games, but it's up to the developers to deliver the experience to you and if they are more comfortable portraying males, those are their decisions to make.

careful, they'll label you sexist if you don't agree with them.

I'm so bored of all these fake "outrages".

You clearly don't seem to understand you can't scream 'diversity' and then not accept it for both sides. Yes there are only 4% of games that have exclusively female leads but that's no excuse because if you start protesting for male only games to have female leads as well you but refuse to support doing the same for…

And the fact that this has now been upgraded to a "controversy" boggles my mind.

I posted this elsewhere, but the "t-shirt and a blazer" thing used to be cool and edgy, because 15 years ago the power suit & tie combo ruled the sartorial day, so the tshirt/blazer look was how the cool young execs dressed to be hip.

This is one of the worst reviews I've read on this site. And that's not to comment on Kirk's reviews as a whole because usually I agree with most of them. Clearly you're playing the game wrong.

Correction: Never get a game based on a review, get it based no your own gameplay.

These SE store exclusives are now starting to bore me. >_>

Well, it looks interesting enough to be a bargain purchase... a nice Steam sale game.

Why does the word "Gamer" make me cringe so much nowadays?

Sony is so far ahead that, despite all this, Microsoft still won't catch up to them for a good long while. And that's only if Sony literally just stands still.

Based on sales so far, Sony can afford to skip a few moves. This is clearly a move to get into a competitive price point where the games can do the selling.

Yes, in 4/3 letterbox. Still a grace of crumbs. Lucas was mocking us, one more time.

Clearly a human, so not species neutral. I am a non-binary star lizardkin, and the lack of trigger warnings on this have caused me severe emotional stress.

I see "I didn't really care about this" and "I don't really get why this was necessary" and people who take issue with the amount of backlash Penny Arcade received. Did the definition of despicable change when I wasn't paying attention?

I dont see a problem. If anything we need to see more PS2 Classics because it is so lacking compared to the ps1.

Anyone who tries to argue that a specific fanbase or group of fanboys is worse than another is more than likely a fanboy themselves and is only contributing to the problem.
