The way that many people on the games forum make fun of a video game/console they don't like is to get obsessed with hating that thing and identify with hating it.

In fact, three IT workers have already paid $5 for the last word in an argument about whether or not the Nazi game is good or bad.

That's not what gaslighting means you hyperbolic dipshit.
Yeah, I don't see the problem with this game either. You can do literally the exact same thing in Grand Theft Auto but nobody is flipping their poo poo about it, and there are tons of games with gameplay pausing, uncomfortably rapey finishing moves shown via mini-cutscene that nobody bats an eye at.

This game just shows the main character spouting some super cliche lines about the world being poo poo and taking the time to explain what he's going to do to all these people instead of just doing it like you do in every other video game. The most offensive thing about this game is that it pretty much literally says "Ha ha ha, look how offensive and edgy I am!" and in doing so, reveals just how gullible and retarded most people are for allowing themselves to get all worked up about it.

Personally, speaking as a non-psychopath who has a pretty positive outlook on life in general, I think a 12 hour "No Russian" level seems like some pretty good stress relief myself.

Yeah, this sort of thing. Am I just reading this wrong, or is this a totally nuts thing to say?

I don't mind killing in games, there's just usually some sort of justification given for it. This has killing innocent people built into the design. I'd feel the same way about someone saying they liked playing those weird Japanese games where you molest women on trains and whatnot.

So mowing down hundreds of random video game people is some horrific catastrophe but mowing down hundreds of video game people who happen to have a video game boss that does things the video game protagonist doesn't like is a-ok?

I'm failing to see where "the best" place to draw the line is as for when it's ok to point a cursor at a particularly person-looking collection of polygons and textures and left-clicking, and when it's not ok to do that.

This game wouldn't even be a blip on the radar if it weren't for dumb, click bait bullshit news sites. There are hundreds of games where you can mow down innocent people in every sort of graphical style. I mean, poo poo, Watch Dogs is way worse. You can judge and then murder civilians based on whatever you found out about them. It allows you to play as a serial killer that stalks and profiles victims:

Obviously this isn't the point of the game and most people tend to not do this. And there is plenty of other stuff to do in the game besides go on a killing spree. I don't get the appeal of Hatred. It looks like a bad twin-stick shooter with kill animations that is relying on its 'edgy' and 'controversial' content to generate sales instead of the gameplay, art design, writing (lol) or anything else. This is not a good sign.

Steam sales are coming up, it'd just be easier to buy Watch Dogs, Saint's Row III/IV or one of the many GTAs and go crazy murdering everything than this, which is more likely than not going to be a piece of poo poo. Those other games will be more fun too when you inevitably get bored of rampaging. If you've got an itch to kill all the police in the world, ever, get Payday 2. Every heist you mow down the entire police force of a small city. They must have a cloning bank somewhere.

Just as violent as Hatred, but nobody gave a poo poo about them. Would you say these games go too far and do they deserve the same kind of treatment as Hatred? Oh and also this list also doesn't mention ARPGs like Diablo 3 where you splatter thousands upons thousands of monsters and people (just as relatively weak and helpless as the ones in Hatred, btw) into chum without even thinking twice about it.

killing faceless thugs/grunts/nazis/demons is significantly different than killing innocents who literally beg for their lives IMO. like seriously this is not hard to understand. lots of games do sort of toe the line with that but this piece of poo poo, judging by the trailer at least, appears to be 100% about getting off to hearing women sobbing as you have a gun in their mouths. it's not like killing nazis in wolfenstien at all, really

I'm not opposed to it because it's violent, I'm not opposed to it at all. Though I do think it is pretty stupid. I'm not gonna buy it or play it because it's a top down shooter. If I'm just killing a bunch of people then I want the game to be in first person or over the shoulder.

Hatred seems like one of those games that would be dumb to purchase at full price, but even something like a 50%-off sale would make it a good purchase for some quick mindless fun.

I'm hoping that they make the difficulty fair instead of copying Postal 1's bullshit difficulty that made the game a tremendous pain in the rear end if you didn't play it at the lowest difficulty level. It's pretty hard to get into the "KILL 'EM ALL!" mindset the game wants you to be in when you're slithering through cover with little health at the start of the map because the map designer thought it would be hi-lar-ious to put only a single health pickup that gives you 10 health in the entire map and bombard you with lots of enemies at the start.

Postal 1, which is what this game is pretty much a copy of of, had enemies like cops, dudes in t-shirts with rocket launchers, and dudes in tanktops that throw grenades. The writeup on Greenlight says the cops will be going after you, so it's not just opening fire on harmless NPCs in a variety of environments.

Im willing to bet that virtual nazi-man or virtual North Korean army man are just as likely to have virtual loving families who would be virtually devastated by the virtual loss as virtual sobbing woman target.
