I'm mildly irritated that yet another lovely game is trying to coast off of edgy marketing on early access, thus discrediting a tool that could be used by decent developers if it didn't have the stigma attached to it from lovely games like this and The War Z and countless other examples.

I dunno about upset though.

Yea I agree with this point. But beyond the academic, where's the outrage, the controversy? It seems we all pretty much agree here. I don't think anyone is going to buy the game.

We can. It'll just probably get gassed or something retarded will happen and INTERPOL will get called or something. I'll do the needful.

Without taking a side either way, I'm idly curious as to what the response would have been if Hatred had been a game about a Valerie Solanas type going around with the specific goal of killing all men. And don't make it any different than Hatred, you can still kill women but maybe have the sound bites be different for killing men vs. killing women.

For my part, I would be equally supportive of such a game existing. Assuming a sad version doesn't exist already anyway.

Probably wouldn't be buying it either, but it'd be just as hilarious/pathetic if a bunch of people defending Hatred flipped sides and wanted to quash it. Likewise the people attacking Hatred flipping sides to defend such.

It's a good thread for a certain purpose but bad if someone genuinely wants to get information on this game. I feel bad for those people quite often in various threads.

Hatred needs to cut his hair in my opinion. The game would be gross even without the gross hair though. Despite the fact that I still play video games as an adult, I think adolescent revenge fantasies are actually bad, and not good.
