I mean…I played it because it looked fun and I did. Yeah it’s gooner bait but the gameplay is pretty good
It plays like baby’s first souls like but that’s enough for me since normally I suck / don’t have time to practice
I really really wanted that Nier automata DLC to be story content instead of just consume masturbait. Even if it was a non canon crossover it would have been wild to have 2B and Eve fighting side by side
One bit that’s nice about being a gooner game is, there’s enough outfit options you can just pick something “cute” and tasteful, and then just play the game. So while many people are ogling, people that are not as interested can just play the game.
EDIT: Adding onto this, though I consider myself a gooner I actually had the opposite reaction to Nier Automata, the game’s carbon copy. I didn’t quite like the bare-ass-thong look of 2B, and it felt like it was consistently distracting enough to make the game’s emotional moments feel silly. At the least, if I put SB’s “Eve” in a denim skirt, that’s my own choice.
One bit that’s a bit distracting about being a gooner game is the thought that the designers‘ minds were all over the gooner stuff instead of being focused on the game.
That’s going to gather some attention from the big publishers.
Would be interested what you fedis think about that?
edit: interested in opinions regarding the news as the game is surrounded by quite a bit of controversy, not “just” the publishers part I mentioned.
What controversy? That it is a sex doll dress up game disguised as an action game?

That’s exactly how I played it. I picked the motorcycle jacket and jeans / heels combo and red passion.
Plus I may…or may have a thing for jeans and heels.
The naked or barely clothed ones just seemed absurd to me

Don’t be absurd, those have underwear choices
