The little I've seen of Forspoken and I have to wonder what ever compelled Squenix to completely kill the appeal this game could have had to and international audience by making the protagonist an obnoxious, bad mouthed, fugly urban amerimutt. The dialog and personality of the protagonist is atrocious.
Isn't Sony outsourcing all creative decisions to California now? good move , really.

I wonder if its ever gonna stop. How many bombs will it take?


What sorta amuses me is that Forspoken has 2 years of console exclusivity vs 6 months of platform exclusivity for Final Fantasy 16

Speaking of Final Fantasy 16, it finally took a month & half since the start of pre-orders in Japan to finally appear in the COMG chart and it's competing against the visual novel after-story (Aokana) and a Switch port of a PSVita Digimon game for the moment, with a score as low as 5. This is the lowest number ever reached for a mainline FF game there.

People may be catching on that it will take at least a year or two of DLC and patches after release for the game to be in a state worth looking at.

Flop-spoken > Forspoken
 
My prediction from November '22:
Calling it now: Forspoken will get hyped by game journos, sell like absolute shit, we'll see at least one article about how those dastardly racist sexist gamers boycotted the game because brown grrl, and it'll be deep discount fodder for the rest of the generation.

and there it is:
bonus: I like how he includes PlayStation in equal billing with women and black people, as if disliking PlayStation™ is on par with being racist and sexist. Oh no, now I can't talk about how the PS5 sucks in public because I might upset PlayStation fans who'll try to ruin my life because I dared trash the PlayStation™ brand of home entertainment consoles.
 
bonus: I like how he includes PlayStation in equal billing with women and black people, as if disliking PlayStation™ is on par with being racist and sexist.
PlayStation: “Have you seen what it's like out there, XBOX? Do you ever actually leave Otaku? Everybody just yells and screams at me. Nobody's civil anymore. Nobody thinks what it's like to be PlayStation. You think companies like Nintendo, companies that can produce more than two games a year, ever think what it's like to be a company like me? To be company but themselves. They don't. They think we'll all just sit there and get called Soyny like good little boys. That we won't Fight bigotry and go wild.”

XBOX: “You finished? I mean, there’s so much self-pity PlayStation, you sound like you’re making excuses for creating all those shitty games. Not everybody, and I’ll tell you this, not everyone has no real games.”

PlayStation: “You don’t have any games XBOX.”

XBOX: “I don’t have any games. Look at what happened because of what you did, what it lead to. There are race wars on Twitter, two gamers are now considered racist because of you. You’re laughing, you’re laughing...games journalism is in flames for defending because what you did.”

PlayStation: “I know! How about another game XBOX?”

XBOX: “No, I think we’ve had enough of your movie games. I don’t think so. I think we’re done with your daddy-daughter stories. That’s it. Call the white knights to defend the poor sale.”

PlayStation : “What do you get when you cross an empowered black women with a fantasy society that abandons her and treats her like trash!?? I’ll tell you what you get! You Forspoken!!!”
 

Widespread panning doesn't mean my game sucks. My entire audience are just being assholes. Better work on more shitty games full of black lesbos for the assholes who don't want them.

It really does feel like everyone who made things that were cool and edgy back in the 2000s are now some of the biggest pussies. I guess the pendulum swings when it comes to these things.
or they stake in the company and don't want their stock to plummet so they play along with anything.
 
I love how the entirety of progressive white Twitter and white progressive game devs are defending this game while black gamers have been brutal with their criticism of this game. I will be honest, at first I liked the idea and premise of this game. I did not care if the protagonist is a black woman because who gives a fuck? However, the main character and the writing for this game exemplifies everything wrong with modern writing. They tried so hard to rip off the MCU with the main character and writing. The MCU and its consequences have been a disaster for writing and story telling. Back on topic, the main character is obnoxious, foul mouth and ill tempered. I never thought Sony would make a worse female protagonist then Abby but here we are. The world is boring and bland. The gameplay is repetitive. The only positive thing I can say about the game is that it isn't obnoxiously woke like The Last of Us 2. In fact, most of the criticism I have seen is for the writing and world design. Hopefully with both this game and High on Life failure silent protagonists will make a comeback.
 
High on Life failure silent protagonists will make a comeback.
it did fail? last I've checked everyone was going reddit over it because LE RICK AND MORTY. or was it because the dude turned out to be another retarded sex pest?

seriously curious, didn't see anything about it.
 
I didn't knew it was this bad. This game looks super fucking cringe, holy shit. The protagonist looks pretty ugly too, the character animations are fucked.
