Rape? Wtf I'm must have missed that. Game looks absolutely phenomenal though. Graphics, choices, themes in the story. Can't WaitWith so many paths, will things actually matter. Cage is good at presenting an interesting concept and then failing to follow through. under/over on attempted rape of the female robots?
It's not in the trailer, but Cage really really likes sending his female characters into sexual assault threatening situations. And given how obviously disgusting this abuser dad character is, I doubt Cage will resist himself.Rape? Wtf I'm must have missed that. Game looks absolutely phenomenal though.

I mean, I feel like the moral of the story is going to be that yes, robots are people with agency because everything about this game points to that. Also, West World and AMC's Humans have both explored said topic of morality of having sex with robots that are programmed to be very human-like.Well, is it really rape if the robot is designed to obey/has no free will? It's an interesting topic to explore, but I don't know if Cage is the right man for that.

You dont really need to worry. While losing Corbeil was tragic as hell and his score is the best a QD title has had yet, the Beyond OST was nothing to snuff at either. Im usually not a giant fan of Lorne Balfe (I guess by extension Hans Zimmer too), but he really put a lot of effort into the Beyond score and its probably his best work to date. Last I heard he does Detroit too so it should be really nice at the very least. Cage's original profession was being a composer which explains his big focus on music in his games and probably why its consistently good because he knows what he is looking forFelt like this section had way more emotion than the previous slices that have been shown off. I'm down for sure but I think I'm going to go on a blackout for it.
The music was also good for such a short bit. Had some doubts considering Normand Corbeil passing (RIP you wonderful composer you) so I'm getting hopeful here.
I knew it, David Cage just can't help but put gratuitous violence against women in his games. I'll bet $50 there are also unnecessary shower and sex scenes with her.
People will use anything against him. Shower scenes and mundane activities are pretty much his trademark symbol akin to Tarantino's foot fetish for instance. It literally doesnt matter what gender your character is, he/she will probably get a shower scene at some point. These people always like to ignore that Omikron had a shower scene with just a dude, Fahrenheit hat 2 shower scenes with men and only 1 with a woman, HR had 1 for each with only the one for the woman being optional. The only game where its woman only is Beyond...because there is no other playable character than Jodie. If Jodie in Beyond was a man he would have the same amount of shower scenes without question.. but violence against men (Jodie holmes mass murdering men in Beyond Two Souls) and shower scenes with naked men (for example Heavy Rain), is nothing worth discussing. Sure!
This whole David Cage thing is so tiring. He is exposing men just as he is "exposing" women... or maybe, what if he is just exposing the human being in his games?
Give him a break.

Thanks! I'll look into getting a copy of HR, not sure any of the stores around these parts still sell it.As mentioned earlier, I'd recommend Heavy Rain to get an idea of what you can likely expect with Detroit.
You can skip Beyond: Two Souls. Don't be tempted by the (amazing) visuals and big names.
I dont know why but after heavy rain and beyond, i will buy anything done by david cage.
Me and my wife love the way he presents his stories.
Trailer got my hyped.
So edgy. You're so cool for ignoring games journalists and reviews. Definitely no buyer's remorse when you only rely on your opinion of a game ;)Good thing that I do not care what people like Austin are saying since I build my own opinions instead of listening to so called "games journalists"
Eh while his snark wasnt necessary, its definitely true that these days you can form your opinion pretty well just by looking at some gameplay and streams at release. It hasnt really failed me so far when putting past experiences with the genre/studio into consideration on top of it. Game journalist or not, their hottakes when not having played the game are not any more special than of every other person commentating and not really worthy of being cited as some kind of verdict on how a game will be. If anything that was edgy of you to do to strengthen your already set in stone opinion ;)So edgy. You're so cool for ignoring games journalists and reviews. Definitely no buyer's remorse when you only rely on your opinion of a game ;)
Because people can't judge the game by themselves without game journalists telling them to?So edgy. You're so cool for ignoring games journalists and reviews. Definitely no buyer's remorse when you only rely on your opinion of a game ;)
If its any condolence, this is super early on in the game. In a few months you have probably forgot enough details already that the wildly different options will ensure you have a fresh experience tailored to youit's good and all untill the last scene
goddamn that's pretty big spoiler :(, i wish i experience that in the game not in the trailer
oh well, i only have myself to blame, never ever watch the trailer for story heavy game
My new premium model Android better be able to rescue me from a flood or i will moan about it on twitterDavid Cage is equal opportunity with shower scenes. If it has a pulse, it's probably going to be in a shower at some point. Are the androids water proof?
I don't get this "trust" shit (hear this A LOT especially with Waypoint sorts).
If it's done terribly, then it's terrible. Same with South Park - which was poo-poo'd by Waypoint as well - because it wasn't "trusted".
Just cause an attempt falls flat it doesn't mean they're bad people or whatever they are trying to imply with this notion of 'trust'.
It's not like the only things allowed in this world are things to be approved by certain people. Dunno, seems rather elitist to me.
Yeah totally.
Not gonna defend it if it's bad (imo, I am probably the worst person/gamer for the nitpicky stuff - e.g. I was fine with Unity and while there were bugs/gltiches, it was hardly anything for me to cry on the internet about. I get that some people were annoyed and that's fine) or whatever. It's all rather subjective anyway.
