I think reviewers commenting on art style and politics is valid, although not something I look for, but her review was lacking in detailed analysis of game mechanics. "Repetitive" is a token criticism that can be applied to the great majority of games since you will repeat the same actions over and over and over. There is no insight there. Basically, it was the typical modern game review. Long on ancillary features, short on game mechanics.

EpicNameBro on Youtube is where you want to go to actually learn something about the game.

He's not really a good game designer though. That's not his strength. I think losing Romero had an impact on the quality of id's game development.

Thanks for the bullshit-free review, if you know what I mean. Sometimes a game is just a game and should be reviewed for its gameness, ya dig?

That nasty looking, rubber squid mop is more disgusting than the gore.

mmmm, Persona... 

 What? No that's not an illegal iso of Persona 4, officer. I ripped it from the copy I own. I swear. Where's the original? Uh...I left it at my cousin's house...in Iceland..yeah...

Oh god, who is complaining this time? You got a link?

All Suda51 games trade in sexuality to one degree or another. He works with pulp tropes, what do they expect. They're probably a bunch of noobs whose grasp of game history doesn't go back further than Xbox360 launch day. 

They're probably the same people who go to the Bioware forums and ask for all sorts of sexual couplings in Mass Effect. Why is lesbian or interspecies sex ok? Mass Effect is just as exploitive as any other game. Series went from action-RPG to Degrassi High-in-space dating sim with Jessica Chobot cleavage cameo.

Brutal honesty is fun.

Zelda has been in decline since Link to the Past, maybe even then. Goofy NPCs that spew jibberish, baby puzzles, no challenge, no danger, shitty sidekick who won't leave you alone.  And they're wasting their time making HD Wind Waker, one of the most hated entries in the series. It's over Nintendo

95% of modern AAA and indie games suck dick and are derivative of games I played in the 90s.  The only differnece is indies don't have to cater to the retarded masses if they don't feel like it.

Any RPG made after 2001 sucks shit, whether JRPG, Ass Effect, or Flailout 3.

 Trophies/cheevos are for mongoloids and cheapen game design.

 The entire Xbox brand should be boycotted on general principle. It's PC gaming for babies and the mentally challenged.  Airhead won't be satisfied until Microsizzle completely destroys the hobby. They're halfway there.

 Journey is for people who hate video games but love being pretentious artfags.  Nice sight-seeing tour you got there, Sony.

The high difficulty (think original Castlevania), the dark fantasy world, boss battles, and methodical combat based on timing and defense rather than the combo spam of modern action games are what give it a Castlevania feel.

No one said they were the same, but they are similar in key ways. Hence why people are making the comparison in the first place. 

I sympathize with the Hawkeye Initiative. Not because I expect there not to be cheesecake in superhero comics, but because I think there are a lot of fanboys that need to get over themselves and their self-consciousness about their and other males' sexuality/anatomy. I love that HI makes some of them squirm. There was some outrage a few years ago because artist Alex Ross dared to indicate a male character's package underneath his tights in an illustration.  So what?  Are they afraid the dick is going to leap off the page and into their mouths, and someone is going to be around to snap a photo of it and circulate it around their school? They are expecting an artist who works in realist technique to not show that men have genitals. It's ridiculous. My generation got past that shit about the time we had health class in junior high.

Another reason is because the artist's job is to help tell the story, not get dicks hard. I want to see poses that somewhat believably convey the action the character is performing. You didn't see them trying to force ass and side boob into every fight scene with Trinity in the Matrix, or the chick in Serentiy. Why should comics be held to a different standard than other storytelling mediums? Just tell the f-ing story!

And people think digital distribution is going to be the rule in the near future. Sure it is. Because people want to wait 2 days to DL a game instead of playing it the same day they get it from a store.
