can't wait to pirate it after mods will add spehs sex slave trade

Don't forget the obligatory loading screen remover mod like someone did for Skyrimjob.

You mean like open cities? Dont know if there is a point. From what i read here now you fly from one rando planet to another, so there is no big proper open world filled with cities that can benefit from such mod.

And it has been released, and youtube is full of videos of people who are playing it.

This game looks absolutely miserable
It's depressing just looking at it
And every NPC is black or mixed so normal people can't even escape into a nice fantasy world
Is this a demoralization psyop?
Yeah, this is what I was saying earlier in another thread:

Big studios get all their money from an initial sale. They mainly care about the first 10 hours or so, since that's all people finish, and they heavily rely on big money and on the media machine for ads, reviews and buzz in general.

But then you have Japanese and Korean gacha games, which although complete rip-offs are funded by user purchases. Users need to like the game content and want additional content enough to pull out their wallets. Regularly.

Go to any gacha game and count the number of black women vs the number of white women. Real Princess and the Frog reality check. FGO, for example, has I think one actually black woman out of 375 characters.

The problem is, the whole world has gotten used to blacks being forced into every media. So, for an initial sale, where all you're seeing is a commercial and only start thinking about this stuff hours later, it's not a problem.

But if you really had to choose with your wallet the kind of characters you want in the game, you'd probably pick European, Asian or any other race first.
Yeah, the chinese gacha game I'm playing has only 1 black character. Didn't even know about it, had to check when I read your post.

You still have to do 4 loading screens by my rough table math.

Strap Yourselves In
Game is boring. Its fallout 4 without all the fun. Removing cinematic dialogue was a huge mistake and it shows, as you are forced to stare into Bethseda animatronics who are really really ugly (It is like they scanned all the homeless people in New York or all the gypsies in east europe). Seriously what the hell? The faces are really ugly and the style of forced zoom in on the faces really does not help.

WTF are those running and walking animations. The character sprints like if they really need to go to the bathroom and are about to shit themselves.

it’s really funny how bethesda never gets faces and voice acting right, but is a genius at open world exploration.

No black females? How are they not cancelled in the AD 2023?

There was one token black femoid but the redhead fatty with nuka-cola themed blaster (or whatever the fuck it is) devoured her during one of the lunch breaks. She is still being digested.
that’s her vibrator, she’s a strong independent woman and proud of it
you'd need a powerfist for that but i guess she can borrow one from skyrim-shirt

Or you have low standards!
Their exploration is very repetitive.
