    I get that sex appeal is part of Stellar Blade’s thing but I would love this so much more without the anime girl with a massive ass and the camera zooming in on it every two seconds, because the game itself looks really solid.

      When something is too in-the-face, it stops being sexy and becomes kinda cringe.

      Her ass is absolutely normal sized. Like mine is bigger and I’m neither overweight nor an anime girl.

      It’s possible costumes could alleviate that. The first game had a variety; some of them less sexualized than others.

      But yeah, I can see it causing problems when you get sick of it.

      I would be less on board if every game did it, but I’m perfectly fine with it in this game.

      She literally has a normal sized ass if not even a bit small…? Like I can get burn out on overly sexualized games.

      But seriously if THIS is “massive” for you. Then you have extremely serious issues with what you consider to be a healthy body shape. There is plenty of anime girl nonsense going on here. But her ass is by far the literal least of it.

    Now that Sony isn’t publishing, do we expect this to be available on PC much sooner than the original?

    Must… flash… ass… and… crotch… ALWAYS

    Seriously, isn’t it time to agree that this is a little gross?

    I hope they make the protagonist less bland this time. I don’t mind a sexy main character if it fits their personality (eg Bayonetta) !

    hmmm,… looks entirely like an excuse to peek at Lolita’s ass. Tight clothing, jiggle physics, preposterous camera angles.

    This is the best cyberpunk city I’ve seen in a while though

    Either there’s a major timeskip, because where the fuck did this cyberpunk metropolis come from given the original post-apocalyptic setting, or this is a prequel kicking off the apocalypse.

      BLOOD RAIN will continue the story beyond the events of the first game and introduce a new protagonist, Evie.

      someone feel free to correct me, but arent the whole setting like…waifu 40k? the bodysuit squads are some sort of expeditionary force for a larger interplanetary empire i though?

      presumably this game is set on another planet

      didnt play the orginal, just going off of trailers

    I hope the combat and movement improve over the original. Everything felt slow and rigid.

    Also, writing was very low tier but that comes a distant second to the combat and movement.
