At least Naughty Dog are doing something new, but this didn’t grab me. Looked like the most generic sci-fi setting ever.

      The most painful thing will be if the game turns out to be bad, and we have to painstakingly explain “Yes, it was bad, but it’s not somehow specifically because it features a bald female lead.”

      What misogynists, I don’t see them anywhere ??<br> Ohhhhhhh; you mean people who hate games being ruined by bad writing<br> This is a rather old gaslighting technique mind you

      I’ve seen so many terrible takes already. I made the mistake of looking at a Reddit thread on the announcement. They’re not even trying to be subtle. “Female characters are supposed to be pretty! Nobody wants to play as an ugly bald bitch who looks like a man!”. I’d consider myself a seasoned internet veteran and even still it’s shocking to me.
