Stellar Blade (formally Project Eve) - Korean Sci-Fi Bayonetta/Nier: Automata/Sekiro Edition
- Thread starter BrawlMan
- Start date
The developers have asked people to stop. They dont want people burning out on the demo before the game even comes out.
I wonder if Steller Blade becomes a hit if we will see more character designs follow the example.
Japan and Korea never stopped, so probably. As for the west, maybe a couple will use its success as a marketing pitch. Though it prolly won't be any super big name studios. Which imo is a good thing too.
Stop what?! STOP WHAT?! They were selling people on the horny, so what the hell were they expecting? This is what you wanted, so this is what you get! There's no turning back now!
Stop playing the game....because if the burn themselves out playing the demo, they wont be interested in playing the real game. Or maybe they are worried that people will use up all their lotion. I don't know.
That's bullshit and we all know this. The lead director is lying to himself, that ignorant, or he's stupid. For his sake, I'll go for the first two options, but he and his team have clearly not been in the game dev business long enough.
I remember so many people back in the day playing DMC4 and RE5 Demos like crazy. I nearly played the DMC4 demo everyday when it launched. I kept playing the demo a week before the launch of the full game I pre-ordered. Did almost about the same for DMC5 as well. When RE4R demo came out, people played that religiously and a majority never got bored nor lost interests in playing the game when it launched. All those high numbers means that people are interested. Be grateful you're getting the attention you wanted. You can't stop it; nothing you can do.

Lmao people here are silly sometimes.
The "please stop playing the demo" was a tongue in cheek joke tweet, not a serious stance. It was like how Larian was saying it was scared by some people who finished baldur's gate 3 over a single weekend, and how they were concerned about those people who did that.
It was not a literal statement, it was ironic, and the intention behind both was to honor the players doing this.

I do recall something fairly similar with Killzone 2, because that game had huge overexposure pre-release because of the ZOMG! graphics and hype behind it being a big PS3 showcase. Like there was preview after preview and then of course a demo, and reviews were nearly a month early, etc. I mean the game was still amazing technically but the fatigue of it all was already setting in at launch for anyone who followed it all.
Nier: Automata creator Yoko Taro says Stellar Blade is "much better" than the beloved RPG: "Stellar Blade actually makes me quite jealous"
Stellar Blade director Hyung-Tae Kim isn't having it

Some mild controversy: the Korean studio recently released a statement saying that Stellar Blade would be released in all regions "uncensored", leading western fans wondering what it could possibly have that was particularly objectionable but more interestingly, having Japanese gamers wondering why it only got a CERO D rating for gore when games like Resident Evil were altered and Dead Space was refused entirely
Hilariously to someone who usually hears of Sony as prudish, some are accusing Sony of using its status to flaunt the guidelines, or even accusations of bias against western developers.
Gamer discourse really is the same everywhere

It was probably in relation to criticism about the game's aesthetic, a reaffirmation that they indeed kept everything good in the game.Some mild controversy: the Korean studio recently released a statement saying that Stellar Blade would be released in all regions "uncensored", leading western fans wondering what it could possibly have that was particularly objectionable but more interestingly, having Japanese gamers wondering why it only got a CERO D rating for gore when games like Resident Evil were altered and Dead Space was refused entirely

And while this game does have some gore, it's not really resident evil levels. It's closer to GoW. You have some brutal murders and so on but the majority of the gameplay is not super realistic gore.
Which one? Because all of the Greek Era GoW games are gorier than Steller Blade. If it's Norse Era, then yes, but not by much.
Sorry for this because I'm just remembering something I heard in one of the podcasts or youtubes I was listening to a few days ago so I don't have a source or anything, but...
Apparently one of the developers or producers of the games was asked, while promoting the game, about what makes the game's combat or gameplay stand out or unique or some such and he said something like "you get to fight enemies as a beautiful woman" or something like that. Like basically he felt the need to highlight the character's appearance even when unasked. Which just made me lol.

Well there's the first warning sign right there. Eve is not unique in any regard to that. You got to bring something else to the table Mr. Lead Developer.
I mean you can get that out of the demo really. The game's got nothing to offer besides combat and tits. The story is nonsense, the characterization is nonexistent, and it's all just window dressing for the player to fight shit as a sexy robot lady, which is pretty old school video games to be honest. Back in the day players didn't need much reason, blah blah blah princess, blah blah go fight/shoot shit, the end.
The funny thing is I'm totally cool with "combat and tits" as a game. I would totally play the tits out of such a game. But:
- The combat in the demo didn't impress me for all the reasons about post-Elden Ring action game combat I've ranted about to death.
- $70 lol gtfo (which in and of itself is fine to wait a couple years for a discount)
- That it's become a cassus belli for the right-wing hentaibater gamergate chuds on the internet.
The problem being we've already seen done better back in 2017, and all the way back in 1994 since we're talking about cyborg girls. Take out the the cyborg and just regular females that can still fight, and Eve is not special any regard. The combat's not good or questionable at best. If I need tits/ass that badly there are other options right now that have better combat. I already own them.
Ignore them. They'll use anything as a stepping stone for their soapbox to indoctrinate and radicalize those that are vulnerable or idiotic.
