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.
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).

Sure, Jen...

Keep your list war to yourself.
Sure, Jen...

Did you skip RE3 because Chris is missing?
Or RE4 because Leon is the protagonist again?

Oh, the hills some people choose to die on...

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?

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.

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

Well Cory is 7 years making a game so there is a chance we have something from santa monica next year and firesprite sp game.

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.

And yeah I think it's dumb. Female protag doesn't mean woke, and I don't think the actress will have any input on the development of the game. Why should her?
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 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.
 
In porn, women are usually attractive.
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.

Again....who cares? That ain't the bio of the main character in the game.
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.

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
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.

Literally LOLing at the people downplaying the visuals here or claiming it's last gen

It looks like artwork, and I'm pretty sure this is just running on the basic PS5 since they didn't say it was captured from a PS5 Pro.


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.
stop with this BS, dont share these losers fake ass stuff, im tired of these people.

it's not even funny anymore
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.

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.
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 :messenger_tears_of_joy:

Any modern day whiffery politics just instantly takes me out of any game/film
