    Those same incels use the same excuse for misogynist hate. Don’t act like it being a joke absolves it of all consequences

      The consequence of… making fun of incels and mentioning a topic that was on OP’s mind anyways?

          They wrote

          I was hoping I could post this without someone making it about the toxic bullshit

          which implies that they were already thinking about it.

            Wow. That’s a reach.

            Can you genuinely not empathise with the position of someone who loves a piece of art and wants to share it, but can’t because of a tired two year old piece of drama that we can’t get rid of?

            You just drag a franchise down, you limit natural marketing, you associate it with negativity. You allow the incels to win by talking about its controversial points rather than its positive ones.

            The game expands on an already incredible first title. It was a graphical powerhouse at release, the combat feels better, the acting is amazing, the enemy and character designs are stunning. But no, we need multiple comments on this post overcompensating for the inane takes of some touch-starved losers
