    About 2:30, I think this game is the best example of a narrative with an amazing female lead which doesn't feel like it's being shoved down your throat as political propaganda or to check off some inclusive checklist. Jesse is such a relatable character and so real, she's genuinely surprised, confused, intrigued. She starts off as doubting herself but by the end, she accepts her authority as the Director and none of it at any point feels forced. Can't imagine enjoying this game the same without Jesse Fayden. Although I liked her performance as Beth Wilder in QB more, that's just personal perference.
    At the end of the day, Jesse is Dyna-Mite (If you catch my drift)

    • @WhoWouldWantThisName
      @WhoWouldWantThisName 5 років тому +11

      For once, if they had gone for realism and made the janitor say,,,, a Latina woman, just sayin' that would be most statistically accurate is all, then they would have found themselves with a dilemma. "Do we make this character a woman too and risk insulting women of whatever race/ethnicity we choose to use, or do we make that one a man so we can actually have males in the game other than thugs and goons for you to kill?" If they had gone the first route they would have likely had to use closed captioning due to the character speaking Spanish, or whatever. Yeah, this was a no brainer, just give a man the job and we can have him speak and be anything we want as it won't matter to anyone. The couple dozen women actually playing this game will be okay with it and the millions of young men and boys will just accept it, because, well, "who's going to hear their complaints, if they dare, and give a crap or dare agree with them, anyway?"
      All that said, I actually don't mind all this myself as it really doesn't bother me that these characters are women and they tend to be easier on the eyes anyway. I just hate the whole perceived need to push any sort of agenda in this day and age. I honestly thought we were way past all this nonsense back in the `80s. Now in a game where history is being re-written to force in some feel-good PC agenda BS, that's an entirely different matter. If they want to make something a parallel universe imagining kind of thing though, fine. That could open up such possibilities and they can do anything in a make-believe world.

      Ahti is a paranatural entity in the game lore (Entity A-001 according to documents found in-game), and the main protagonist is technically his assistant, doing his work while he goes off on vacation. It's hinted at heavily that he's some sort of god or personification of the games setting. The game is more like a woman cleaning up the men's messes as well, if we have to force that angle. The entire story revolves around how the former FBC directors and department heads fucked things up.

    I think 3rd person works for some games better than others. It's sometimes hard to do melee properly without the peripheral vision you get from 3rd person. Also games with lots of acrobatics or flying I prefer to see my footing in 3rd person.

    Great review, the only one I've seen who got it right. Some seem to hate the story, I loved it, like David Lynch made a video game. One missed opportunity in this review was showing the other powers which are really fun despite not rising to the level of throwing things which is the crown ability to be sure. You can fly! The detail in this game when you smash an office desk or other everyday items is stunning.

      Anti-sjws believe any female or ethnic minority in a lead position is propaganda. You've been brainwashed by the plethora of anti-sjw gifting schemes on youtube. Too many content creators understand how impressionable 15-25 year old dudes are and just turn everything into sjw this and sjw that and it generates a shit ton of clicks.
