Never underestimate cinty to defend wank material

Proper Poe's law thread, this. If defences are legit, you still can't play it without adjacent basement men.

I think a lot of Suda stuff, especially Lollipop, is designed to be hyper shallow, gratuitous titillation or wish fulfilment. LC absolutely wants you fawning over a literally barely legal 18 year old cheerleader’s ass.

His games are cheesy and sleazy and violent and all kinds of shit.

The games also have really good characters and stuff to say and both can be true.

Can he be accused of wanting to have his cake and eat it?
Sure, but it’s really good fucking cake.

Arse cake.

Huh

I got it Goobs.

Is it a game with decent actual gameplay, as well as artistic statements about society and dodgy wank material?

Crack on.

Never played Lollipop Chainsaw, for roughly the same reasons I never played Gal Gun.

Sounds like Davys preordering so.

Speaking of creepy, I didn’t play much of LC but I did play all of killer is dead… remember those scenes?

Never got round to Killer is Dead, to my shame.

Shadows of the Damned was great, though, and Grasshopper actually regained the rights to it just last year so it’s not impossible that something could be on that horizon.

It was apart from a couple of annoying levels.

I wouldn't of thought there was enough demand for LC re-make.. but what do I know? For what it's worth I found NMH3 super disappointing.

Think one of the reasons to go with a remake (as I was also surprised) is that it seems to be one of the few games from that gen that doesn’t play well with back compat.

No you didn't.

Prove it.

I assumed it would be a remaster, but news stories seem to imply an actual remake, but not a reimagined remake. More Demon's Souls than FFVIIR. That said, one big difference is that it will lose the OST from the original game as there's licensing issues which kinda sucks. 

It's not Grasshopper, and there is no involvement from Suda or James Gunn. But, it's being handled by some of the old team, including the OG producer. So...could go either way.
