Whoa! I personally have no problem with the Otaku culture in games, as long as the age rating of the game is appropriate, its fine with me. I was just quoting another forum user when I said "Otaku basement dwellers' because I thought it was amusing. They obviously don't like Otaku, and thats their opinion, which is fine. I actually own a couple of those games and enjoy them for what they are. Yes, the destructable clothing in Bombergirl is very tame, I'm surprised anyone could be offended by it.

Yeah, sorry, my answer wasn't aimed at you personally, I just began answering to your comment talking about "easily destructive clothing" and ended up writing a lot more starting from there than what I originally had in mind ^^. My bad!

The original article lacks information so far and just talk about "destructible clothing" (which is wrong), and some people get pissed because of it and the "girl" part, I'm surprised too. The other website where I've seen this news (with the gameplay video) was much more focused on "it looks slow, unoriginal and bad" than "A girl, how dare they!"...

 

Yes, the gameplay shown in the vid does look very bland. Even the bomb explosions look bad. Bomberman R for Switch looks much more fun and playable. With Hideo Kojima gone I think Konami will start doing some crazy things in the future, trying to reinvigorate their franchises. Bombergirl is just the beginning.
