Thanks, but I was hoping for a story with the director's actual quotes, not a 13 minute video featuring a dreadfully boring guy talking about stuff.  There's no way in hell I'm sitting through that.  

As far as the BFV comments goes, I'm going to go ahead and say I find no fault with Soderlund's comments.  I think he is right, and I think Gamerevolution's take on it is fair.  The game is fantasy, and there is nothing inherently wrong with seeking to be more inclusive of all gamers.  So, yeah, if one doesn't like that - or feels threatened by it - don't buy the game.

You hoped for the quotes just for you to disregard as you done with BFV right? So why should anyone bother to fetch then for you?

I hoped for quotes so I could decide for myself if Medisti's claim that the director said "if you don't watch it, you're sexist" is accurate or just his own spin.  I have found that accepting other people's interpretations as truth on most topics, but especially charged ones like this is foolish on my part.  That is why I prefer to get as close to the source as possible.  As far as why anyone should bother to fetch the quotes for me goes, for two reasons.  First, I failed to find them myself, so either I'm missing something, or the quote isn't accurate as presented.  And second, the burden of proof lies upon the person making the claim. 

Also, disagreement is not the same thing as disregard. I understand where you are coming from with respect to BFV, but I disagree with it.  Ironically, you and Soderlund appear to be in agreement if you have chosen not to buy the game for these reasons.  Which you have every right to do.

Incidentally, I neither watched Ghostbusters 2016, since it simply did not look funny, nor did I pre-order BFV, since war games do not appeal to me
