Jesus Christ, checking other boards it's apparent people really have it out for this game. Trying to paint Daniel Vávra as a white supremacist who dabbles in game design is fucking ridiculous.

Talking about RDR I've still not even seen any gameplay video longer than a few dozen seconds. Still no idea what kind of game it is, fundamentally. I suppose it's like go to X, watch a cutscene, shoot a few guys, rinse and repeat? Or is it about conquering the map full of collectibles ála Ubisoft? Kindda fun but ultimately simple and shallow entertainment?

Yeah those two games are completely different animals.

RDR1 was basically GTA western, but less varied than GTA5, most missions were about shooting bunch of guys and watching linear cutscenes. Still a great game for its world and atmosphere though. I expect RDR2 to be the same thing with nicer graphics for the most part. It is better than Ubisoft collecthathons, but nowhere near actual RPG like New Vegas or hopefully KCD.

Some examples please, curious on what they are saying.
Shouldn't be surprised given the site, but here's the first exchange in a thread about the recent gameplay video, which highlighted the systems and provided an overview of the game, without ever mentioning specific members of the team.

Isn't this the game with the white supremacist developer?

Yes, thats why out of principle and being a POC, Im not buying.

Thanks for clarifying. Yep, I'm not buying either.

It might not be the place to discuss it, but I'm surprised by the amount of people here outright denying that the head of the studio is a white supremacist. The dude is a mass of signal boosts and dog whistles for alt-right movements.

Well, I don't think anyone of them buy games anyways, so no loss. From reddit at least the latest video seem to have gotten a very good reception. I really hope it sells well.

From the comments of the latest gameplay video:

Jonnathan Webber said:
Will this game have Denuvo? I'm afraid of the performance impact
Warhorse Studios said:
No Denuvo!


The idea for Savior Schnapps came from the community.

Warhorse said:
Actually, the idea came directly from the community, and we thought it was very good, so we made it. "You should save every time you drink a beer. Because you would only drink if you are in a save environment." And we made it schnapps and used it against save spamming. It can have very positive aspects to work very closely together with the community!

If game turns out good, will buy full price. As for if the game will sell well or not, all it takes is for one popular Twitch streamer to play the game and have fun playing it, the audience will respond by buying it. Warhorse should pay off a popular streamer to play their game for a few days.

Isn't that standard procedure nowadays anyway?

Isn't ResetEra the new NeoGaf? And you're surprised they don't like KCD?

(also it's only a few posts in a whole thread of other opinions)

None of the comments at the major hubs - reddit, Steam, Youtube, the KCD forum, mainstream "jouno" outlets - talk about Vavra and Burzum at all. Now and then there's a lone comment like "Nazi gaem!" but nobody seems to pay it any attention.

That's just one recent example from the site. If you check the thread, you see multiple links to a gigantic thread that exclusively talks about whether it's ethical to support the game.

I'm surprised this game's on the receiving end of such hyperbolic complaints, especially when you see the links people are trying to draw. A developer wearing a t-shirt, listening to historians, I could go on.

You have to understand that the left have no sense of humour. They take everything seriously.This is what victim complex made them -a paranoid mess that see victimization in every facet of life.

This sounds like Tumblr dot com.

Not really, most people trying to stir up shit in the latest trailer thread are sent to the proper thread and even there only a relative handful of people proclaim they'll never buy the game. As if they genuinely intended it in the first place.

It's not "the left", it's idiotic SJWs. Of course, NeoGAF and I guess now ResetERA is filled with those retards, so no surprise they don't like Vavra or his game that much in that shithole.
