This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

It's really very simple, GW.

"In a way, the Lands of Dream are far more brutal than the worlds of most mainstream games. All of the games set there have a bittersweetness that I find much harder to take than the ridiculous adolescent posturing of so-called \'grittily realistic\' games. So maybe one reason I like them as a setting is because they are far more like the real world: colourful, crazy, full of strange creatures and people, eternal and yet changing, deeply beautiful and sometimes profoundly bitter."

I had the same reaction as GW when I first saw the game trailer, a few months back.

Linky.

To sum it up, it's a scantily-clad über-hot two-fisted gunfighting witch.

Of course, it helps to understand that the entire game is a parody of the scantily-clad women games with over-the-top stories and tons of fan-service.

That really doesn't help at all.

The game is just utterly batshit insane.

Oh Lord! I'm speechless! That's mind-numbing.

LOL HOLY SHIT That pic is awesome! :D

And yeah... Bayonetta... ... ... yeah. A few of my gray cells died watching that video. I mourn their loss.

IceBlinkLuck

Ugh, shouldn't have clicked on the link.

I wonder if the people who are going to buy this will really understand its mean as a parody or if they will just think its "bitchin' hot librarian chicks in skin-tight leather with guns and chainsaws."

Tahmoh

umm her outfit is actually her hair and can turn into weapons during attacks...yup the games frickin weird.

Simlasa

Looks like one of those games I'd rather watch than play... maybe I can feed a bunch of caffeine and donuts to my 12yr old cabin boy and have him play it for me.

Benoist

LOL A pack of energy drinks will do.

Ghost Whistler

The game itself is fine.

It's just the whole thing is fucking mental.
