Whatever you're expecting, expect worse.

Not expecting anything. I don't know of what roles she has played in the past. She could be a very good actress. I'd expect so actually if Sucker Punch choose her for the part.

What I don't understand is why anyone thinks her bio in 2024 is going to affect the character she plays in 1600s Japan.

She is an actress, not the game director. So her opinions dont matter, honestly.

She voiced many characters before in games that people here didnt boycott for being woke.

If the game turns out to be woke or whatever, its on Suckerpunch writters to blame.
I said it the other thread but usually devs uglify women, where sucker punch seem to have done the reverse in this scenario so I do feel people are jumping to conclusions.

Although having said that spiderman2 didn't market itself as press X to apologize and cry to Mary Jane because you are an evil cishet white man simulator either

I would be more worried about this game if it were being made by Insomniac rather than Sucker Punch.

To be fair, seeing her clip practicing with the sword, there is not much margin to uglify her even if they tried

Because these people tend to push their ideologies onto others.

Respect my pronouns or don't talk to me
Put pronouns in the game or I'll stop collaborating

You could be right or wrong. We'll see when it releases. But I wouldn't be surprised.
 
Yea or Nay?



Whether it's he, she, they, them, whatever-the-fuck this person identifies as is fine by me. This person can use whatever words to describe themselves if that makes them happy.

But, good lord, you would think if they're being cast in a high profile, action role, they might want to hit the gym a bit and look the part. This person looks like they shouldn't be trying to stab people with swords and should instead be stabbing themselves with insulin.

It would be certifiably shocking if Sucker Punch were to insert pronouns into a game set in 1600s Japan. I think there is a massive overreaction here over a personal bio. But yeah.....we will see. Unfortunate that threads on the game are going to be dominated by this kind of talk until it releases.

Seems to be roles that are nothing out of the ordinary. Though the last movie she was in has this synopsis:

Doesn't mean she only acts in those kinds of stories though.

She does a Vampire Masquerade tabletop RPG show where her character is straight, apparently. Knowing what we know, I think it shouldn't be surprising if she leans towards more LGBT roles than straight though. Not that it matters really in a game like Ghost. If she plays a lesbian in the game then it will be because Sucker Punch wrote her character as a lesbian.

He also voiced female Rook apparently!

Although she may be gender-fluid I don’t think Sucker Punch will make Atsu have the same sexual orientation as him. She is her own person separate from the character they voice
