Definitely Not Playing New God Of War

I was thinking of getting this game and was just about to dust off the PS4 when I came across this article:

https://www.polygon.com/interviews/2018/4/27/17287292/god-of-war-ps4-sony-toxic-masculinity

“The new God of War is the first entry in the core series to not feature a sex scene.” This first sentence of the article really caused my oh s~~~ alarm to go off like the Alcatraz alarm during an attempted escape. What really got to me was when the director said this, “Knowing that five years was going to go into this [game], I knew that we’d have an incredible megaphone. We have the ability to say something with what we do, right? Which I think is awesome. And I think perhaps I didn’t take advantage of that so much when I was starting out [in games]. I was so, sort of, enamored that I didn’t really think too much about the things below it, right?”

An incredible megaphone? That is absolute garbage the average person that plays video games doesn’t give two s~~~s about what “message” a video game sends out. I know that when I am playing Kino Der Toten, I’m not worried about “toxic masculinity.” Nope not going to get this game. It’s an insult to the previous God Of War games. This is why I mainly stick to my PS3 and use my PS4 only for Skyrim and movies. Better in my opinion to play games that was before #Metoo and toxic masculinity was mainstream.

LOL…soon Kratos is going to be played as having a 9-5 job…saying yes to wife compulsively, mowing the lawn, doing groceries, paying bills and taxes while getting action from the divorce rape with wife running off into the sunset with Duke Nukem…

Its God of War…emphasis on WAR….Not God of Domestic Chores…

Whats next, GTA following the road rules? Halo shooting with spray guns? Call of Duty dancing with Nazis and Unicorns on D-day? and Super Mario walking and not smashing into things…LOL…

I stand with feet apart and let my balls hang free...Manginas dont have balls...See how they stand and sit at the whim of their masters...

It sounds like they’ve taken the most violent, hate filled, bad ass character in video game history, and made him into a big f~~.

GOW was my favorite game. They f~~~ed it up. I can’t believe it. They really s~~~ the bed on this one.

Back off Barbie!

It’s a sad business indeed.
