She's carrying a guitar instrument everywhere she goes, I wonder what the significance of that is. Probably plays a big part in the game somehow

I feel like I'm on another world when I see people complaining that it looks meh or like a PS4 game (as in 'bad' for them).
Some uncompressed shots from PS Blog for the naysayers.
It looks fantastic, extra point for skipping the photorealistic trend and going hard on stylized art-style.

Keep your list war to yourself.
Nice edit. No, I skipped RE2 because no Jill and Chris. No, I not skipped RE3 because Jill is my favorite. I skipped RE4 because I hate Leon. I played RE5 because Chris was in there.
Any more bullets my friend? Or we gonna agree to disagree?

It's flute from GoT. You unlock new melodies that can change weather with flute in the first game, so I expect shamisen will play (sorry) some part in openworld interactions here too.

They really need to go back and play some games on a PS4 to get some perspective methinks.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Make Malena Morgan the main character and I'll buy not 1 but 10 PS5s.

Oh so it is being referred to as both a sequel and a spinoff. Is there a word for that? Sidequel?

Venom is just a Miles sized expansion of Spider-Man 2.
Venom is next year. Wolverine is 2026. Spider-Man 3 is 2028 on PS6. X-Men is after that.

We're gonna agree that, in your own words, Resident Evil is not a successful franchise and RE2 and RE4 are bad games because Chris and Jill aren't in it.

Wonder why they didn't think a flute was appropriate for a lone woman wandering by herself.

Looks excellent. The landscapes looked real nice. Hope it gets a PC release in the future, so I can play it. Don't mind a new protagonist, she looks cool.

OK you may be right about Venom. I think I had that confused with SM3.
Wolverine is definitely 2026 though.

Sony Santa Monica doesnt have two teams as far as I know, whatever Cory was working on was a lengthy pre-dev period for their next title. So they finished Ragnarok in 2022 and moved over to Cory's project.

To be clear, I do think the game will have woke crap in it (Sucker Punch is located in Seattle), but I don't think a female protagonist is necessarily a symptom of their ideologies.
As a reminder, this is what one of the devs said at the other forum when Brad Ellis left Easy Allies for Last Stand Media:
These are the idiots making your Western AAA games, folks:
He was a fan of Brad for 10+ years and suddenly Brad is an irredeemable enemy because he found a stable job with Colin Moriarty, a guy they label a transphobe and misogynist because he made a joke once. That's the kind of person developing this game.
But anyway, that's all I have to say about that... I still hope the game will be good.
The people that hired them for that very reason?

The protag being female makes it less believable, but it's a video game so can look past it, but if she is gay it's a clear sign of an external group such as SBI being involved.

Based on the trailer she doesn't look ugly though? Sure she's not pretty as porn star, but you can't say she's ugly.
And she already looks much better than every woman characters in Ghost of Tsushima or any previous Sucker Punch games.

You don't know that. Did you even know who she was until folks here started plastering her personal bio all over the thread? I sure didn't.

Yeah exactly.
Sucker Punch didn't really have any pandering in Ghost of Tsushima, I don't expect it to be the case here either. This is a historical narrative adventure, not filled with modern day BS

Even if it follows the Southpark meme, the mods for this are going to be lewd when it releases on PC. I am ready.

Quoted for truth, WGAF what she is or does in her real life? Damn.
Its not like you are gonna hear pronouns in this game. At least we shouldn't.
Some of you are really amazing with the issues you find with games that aren't out yet. Everything from, "It's a woman!" to supposed PS4 graphics.

In a general sense I’d normally agree. I’m totally fine with a Japanese woman being a badass. Maybe because of my exposure to anime when I was younger.

Yep, we still have to wait for them to improve it with the downgrade, like they did with the first one.

Most likelly the same mechanic as the 1st game where Jin carried a flute. Playing the flute in the 1st game would change the weather.

Look....i'm buying it day 1 as I bought Ghost 1 day 1, but....this looks dated.
I would say yes, we have a few bad actors that will say this SOLELY to downplay it, but as someone who likes this IP, I'd have to agree with the visuals looking dated. My frist impression during the trailer was that it was Ronin DLC, then Ghost DLC and then when it showed a new character i thought it was like a PS4 / PS5 title
At no point did I feel this was PS5 only, so when they showed just PS5 and it was a new title, I realized it looks this way because they are likely using the same engine to speed up dev time, as to why it looked like DLC or something.
I'm not saying this looks bad, I like how Ghost looks, but I did expect its sequel to make use of PS5 just like the first game did, to the point of us thinking it was a PS6 game sorta like how we thought Ghost 1 was a PS5 launch title at reveal lol
I think it looks good James, but I got to give my honest opinion on it.
lol annnnnnnnd it begins
These people legit have no life.
They will just attack this game to death and it doesn't even matter if any of that is true, they'll keep spreading the misinformation and when you call them out, they'll just goal post to some other thing to be triggered about. As soon as I saw the character, I knew it was a matter of time that this is what it would be.

The aesthetic and music are great. It doesn't matter if the protagonist is a girl.
The protagonist can be a monkey for all I care. If the gameplay is good, the game is good.
If you take the culture war complaining too far, you'll be consumed by it, and if you're an anti-woke hammer, everything will look like a nail. Criticize the game when there's actually something of substance to criticize.

I personally don't care if it's a potato wearing a tutu, if the game is good with no 'modern day' politics bullshittery shoved in, good
Obviously it's not too realistic having female Samurai running around killing everything, but it's a game, I couldnt care less
If the Pro nouns and LGBT show up, I'm done
Any modern day whiffery politics just instantly takes me out of any game/film
