okay okay, im gonna say this again, cause some of you guys misunderstood what my friends where saying.
my friends DID NOT call people who play cutesy fighting games perverts or dumb or baby fuckers. what they did say is that they don’t want game makers to make this type of games too much in the future.
and the only reason they are worried about that is because of the problems with sexual predators in this country.
i called some of my friends today and asked them again weather or not they hate AH and again they told me the game is hella deep and they respect the people who made it, but they don’t want to contribute to that particular type of game considering how they feel about the negative types of fans games like AH DO indeed attract here in japan. so they have nothing at all against other people who play them.
and in my opinion, i love AH and its like a breath of fresh air to play a game with so many options and strats, but lets not lie to ourselves. we ALL know why the creators of this game chose cuttie high school girls in skimpy shit when they made this game, and it was NOT to be fresh and new or anything like that.
for one, the game is made by Japanese in japan for Japanese. the fact that the art direction went the little girls with Crayola colors is more than enough proof that someone on the staff is indeed a fan of these type of characters and knows that there are people in japan who will snatch games like this off the shelf having only seen the box art alone. but hey, there is nothing wrong with that at all.
oh, and trust me, there are more fans of these kinds of games out there than there are fighting game fans, and you can take that to the bank. sure fire sales for AH.
in america we like characters who are tough and busting with muscles, that dont mean we are all macho men bad asses. and if you like AH it dont mean anything negative about you either.
play what you like, fuck everyone else.
but ill be damned if im gonna sit here and play a game that DOSE cater to guys who like cute little girls beating the fuck outta each other and say thats not what the games art direction is all about.
i think we are just lucky that AH turned out to be such a well playing crisp game that it is. i say play what the hell you want. there are allways haters but at least my friends have a fuckin valid reason for disliking the game. i dont agree with them 100% but i know where they are coming from.
