Mench'n-a-go-go-baby!
The original concept of Last of Us seemed like it was gonna be pretty sexist:

quote:

The result was a pitch for a problematic title called Mankind. Just like in The Last of Us, the game was set in a world where Cordyceps has leaped from insects to humans, turning the infected into dangerous monsters and bringing down civilization with them. The key difference was that in Mankind, the virus only affected women. An early version of Ellie was the only female who was immune, and Joel decided to protect her in order to bring her to a lab where a cure could potentially be created. But they weren't able to sell the idea, especially after several female Naughty Dog employees voiced their concerns. "The reason it failed is because it was a misogynistic idea," says Druckmann.

(Also some people swear original concepts for the bloated infected reached fetish-levels of growth in this concept of the story but I haven't found any proof of that part.)

What'd they do?

They've been scummy to the indie devs whose games they have been publishing.

Like the Devil Engine guy didn't get paid and he recommended that people pirate his game.

This is 100% going to be a horrible rape scene, I bet. We need to stop these companies that think they're fine art

They could try to be art in the other way, and include a shot for shot remake of the 5 minute long hardcore scissoring scene from Blue is the Warmest Color

Someone in the replies to this points out that this interview was conducted five months ago, and the Kickstarter page makes no mention of Dangen. This could mean one of two things.

1. Platinum is no longer working with Dangen, which would be good.

2. Platinum is trying to hide the fact that they are working with Dangen, which would be very bad.

So that’s interesting.

I'm guessing not one person from Platinum has spoken the word "Dangen" aloud in public since the CEO was revealed as a sex pest.

They’re mired in accusations ranging from stealing from developers to sexual harassment on the part of the CEO. Bad news all around.
