The issue here is there’s two groups
On one hand you have trolls, a bunch of people saying they won’t buy it because it features a female lead and acting up in arms over that specific detail. People who just hate female characters in general and go way overboard about the whole woke stuff which turns it into a parody at times.
However on the other you people who just liked Jin Sakai from the first game, wanted his character arc to continue, have speculated for 4 years where his character could go next, what battles he’d face, if the Shogun would capture him and even debating what ending Sucker Punch would go off, did he spare his Uncle or not.
That’s it. That’s all. It’s just people who are kind of bummed about it, and that’s the most boring answer. No one said it was shit, no one is hating because it’s a female character, nobody is saying they won’t buy, it’s a deffo buy, it’s the sequel to one of the best games of 2020.
It’s just super sad people who are defending it from the trolls are grouping these two groups together. You say you’re disappointed Jin is gone and suddenly you hate women who think the game looks like dog s***. It’s insane.
That’s the main issue here and now suddenly despite all that speculation from people where Jins story could go for the past 4 years it’s now, “yeah impassible, his story was done, that’s it, it’s over, 100%” and it’s just kind of bullshit in my point of view like you don’t think Sucker Punch are creative enough. We can get a dozen games of God of War with Kratos, a bunch of Uncharted games with Nathan Drake and the like but one or two games to form a trilogy with Jin is impossible and would apparently be a terrible idea now. Come on, you all know that’s not true.
People need to learn the difference between the trolls and those just a little bummed about it so people can express their opinion without people making out they are “one of them”.
