I have beaten this game 3 times on PS4 and bought it again on PC. Its a very fun game. Sadly the developers have decided to do a female protagonist for the sequel rather than continue Jins story like most people wanted. I dont play story games as females, because Im a male and I cant get invested in pretending to be a woman for 80 hours. I understand why females like to have female representation in games, because they like to see characters that they can relate to or see themselves or even a party of themselves represented on screen. Thats great, but as a male, Im I also like to do that, but as a male. Yes, I understand that most games in the past have had male protagonists. Thats true, because most gamers are males. Obviously some women play games, but the ration has got to be 100 to 1, if not 1000 to 1. Thats just the reality. Women do play games, but they dont in the quanity or the frequency as men do. I actually dont know a single woman in my real life who plays games. All the guys I know, all the dads, all the sons, brothers etc, all play games to a varying extent. but I dont know a single mother who plays games. my sister doesnt play games, my daughters dont play games, my aunts and female cousins dont play games. Yet Sucker Punch has chosen to pull a bait and switch on us and focus on appealing to women and that is unfortunate. Im a whale. Im the one who buys DLC, Expansions, stuff for my kids...hell I'll even buy cosmetic stuff and loot boxes. I buy games that I know I'll never play just to support a developer who I think deserves it, but I will never be buying another game from Sucker Punch after this bait and switch. Learn from Ubisoft. Learn From Space Marines 2. Learn from Black Myth Wukong. Space Marines and Black Myth are honestly just above average games. They arent amazing. I could give you 10 things for each that would have been easy to implement that could have vastly improved the game, but the reason people bought them and played them was because they catered towards their core audience, without the need to try to appeal to a small minority of people to boost their ESG score and get some social media credit. Im sad that we wont be getting a real sequel, but like I said, Ive bought games that I never thought Id play, so there are plenty of games that can take the place of the next Ghosts game.
