Forums - Sony Discussion - Uncharted: A Thief's End Launching March 18th, 2016

March eh. Don't really think this is a surprise to anybody. Always seemed like the most likely month and, yeah, gives me plenty of time to enjoy it over the spring!

One sexy looking edition there too



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Who's Anita?


Anita Sarkeesian, the woman who painted the entire games industry as misogynistic.  I think her 15 minutes of fame are over (I think most people have now realized that her viewpoint was quite skewed), but I am disappointed that Naughty Dog (mainly Neil Druckmann) jumped on her bandwagon during that time.

Personally I am able to detach myself from a single developer who comments and a game that was made by 70-100 people and I just want to enjoy that game and not worry about the politics of what people have said.

Normally I would, but he is the creative director leading those 100 people, and it irks me that instead of making the most creative game possible, he is potentially infusing "political correctness" into the story.  If the game stays true to its heritage, maybe I'll change my mind, but right now the politics has ruined all hype of this game for me.

What are you talking about? Sexism has got absolutely nothing to do with political correctness. What you're doing her is proving she's 100% correct and showing me she needs to continue what she's doing. It's about time this industry grew up. I just can't believe you've just called the idea of treating people equally, regardless of gender, politically correct. Amazing.

But how do you know any of this.... you dont know the game will be less creative because of his comments.

There is a wide range of opinions in a work place in any job... it really doesnt matter... considering how good all of their games have been in the last 8-10 years, are you really that concerned?

Gender equality is ensuring that female video game artists get paid the same amout as male video game artists for doing the same work.  Telling a video game artist the he or she shouldn't draw a ficticious female video game character in pink isn't stomping out sexism.  Doing so is only giving in to an agenda by a minority that think it is discrimination against them, and the only term that I could think of that best describes this practice is "political correctness".  Video game characters aren't "people".  After a game of Call of Duty, I don't turn myself in to the police for having killed "people".

It is true that I don't know any of this, and I won't know until the game is released.  But Neil has said that her work was influential to him, and with him being the creative director for the game, I can't help but feel disappointed by all of this.  I mean, if a coach from your favourite sports team (who has been on a winning streak lately) says someone on the internet told them that the entire sports association is doing it all wrong (and gave really bad examples of why it is all wrong), and the coach said they were influenced by this, wouldn't you be concerned?

Not if the team continue to win. Did you not see the E3 demo, which was just absolutely amazing, best demo of the show in terms of scope and tech. So no I am not concerned at all.
