@DennisReynolds Are Ben or Miguel in SM PS4? No. Is there any other black main character or even side character that isn't his father? Also no. Success doesn't make something woke or not. Here though I do agree that this game isn't woke just become of a female protag.
@DennisReynolds I'm not sure Peach and Spider-Verse are great examples because Peach being an "action hero" was at the expense of the plot. When you change the source material, chances are it's for political reasons. And Miles Morales has become basically a token black ever since Spider-Man PS4. I don't think their movies' successes are related to those decisions. I think they were in spite of them. But for GTA6 I don't think any of those kinds of decisions apply. I can't understand why people are calling this woke.
I love Kat and Gravity Rush. 2 was my fave game of 2017 (yes, 2017) but Sony never seemed to care much about the series, despite all of Kat's cameos. Otherwise there'd be more marketing and they wouldn't just shut down everything. It's a shame really...
One of my all-time favorite games <3 Unfortunately the lack of marketing ruined its chances of being something big so I doubt there'll be a third one...
@Thelegend159 But if they don't care about making it good, isn't that worse? They're gonna lose more money than if they just cancelled this version. It's Christmas time is the biggest culprit if you ask me
I don't understand why a PS4 version of this game even exists. I mean clearly the PS5 version is getting more attention so we should have just gotten that one
