Why would we have awful things to say about Japan? Otaku exist everywhere.

Since when does being an otaku mean you have to like this dreck?

Hard to deny Japan is a major source of fan service games. Even the big boys like Square Enix are all about dressing up women in scantily clad outfits.

And just about every game on Playstation Vita, in Japan, is about idols and force feeding them bananas or something.

Japan's game/anime culture is pretty focused on this stuff. It's not just Otakus.

God forbid you ever visit Japan and go into a video game or hobby store. You'll be floored by what you discover.

I'm a nerd and I'm into Japanese stuff and I find this really embarrassing. Don't lump us all in together.

Otaku can be into many things (idols, trains, mecha, video games, etc.). They're not necessarily all pervs.

Those environments and AI... I dunno, they probably should've made it a rail shooter instead of having it be free-roam.

Do those strong feminist types who work with games even know Japan exists?
Would their head 'asplode if they saw this?

They must have some pretty awful things to say about Japan and the Japanese.

I never like when people say bad things about an entire country based on a few incidents. Like when ignorant people say "murica" is nothing but cowboys running around with guns or whatever.

That said, this game is clearly a much larger offense than not having females in an Assn Creed game.

This seems.... uncomfortable

I'm trying to imagine the reactions if this was a western game instead. Major shitstorm.

Not my cup of tea, but looks interesting for those that like these kinds of games.
