After All That, Stellar Blade's Eve Is Nothing Like We Expected

Stellar Blade fans wanted Eve to stick it to the man, but she feels too tame and most reactions say she should have gone further.

"Stellar Blade fans wanted Eve to stick it to the man"

I haven't seen a single fan say that, honestly not even one, am I missing something

You're not. Mainstream loves to be creepy. They love imposing stereotypes and pushing their own agenda into others.

Don't call the gamer.com 'mainstream' Crow, you'll only encourage them🤣. The problem these days is there are no journalistic standards in video games media.

Even the mainstream sites such as IGN and Gamespot are too close to 'the industry' to really be of any use. But outside of the mainstream, anyone can run a website without the barest minimum of standards.

sounds more to me like they wanted the man to stick it to her...

This whole article is a game "journalist" complaining becasue a video game character "isn't sexy enough". Is this really what it's come to?

The world is divided into two factions. Those who want 25% visibility of butt crack and those who fight for 26% visibility.

It's a war I am willing to fight....Where's my pitchfork!

I'm tired boss

sigh.

i dont remember anyone ever wanting eve to "stick it to the man" watsoever. not sure what the author is talking about.

After all what? The author of this piece has just basically fabricated a whole load of shit so that he can then write a story on it. This is what gaming journalism has come to now is it?

[Crows90]

They gotta get their news from somewhere...if there's a slow news day they just go stir up a shit storm.

I started playing over the weekend and I have to say, Stellar Blade has been brilliant so far. After around 6 hours the thing that really leaps out at me is how much fun the combat is.

As someone who loved Sekiro, I find myself really enjoying the parrying and dodging along with the forward and backwards counter attacks moves. When it all gels, I feel like an absolute bad ass. I also enjoy the exploration a whole lot, not too much open world, but enough to avoid being too linear and dull, kinda just enough hidden away things to find.

It's a real shame sites are focusing in the partial nudity thing as there is so much more to the game....the music....oh that music!
