The cultural wars behind this game around release time was just puzzling. This game did not warrant the level of attention and debate.
Eve's character designs were pretty tame compared to some of the JRPGs out there.
It was strange to see right-wing trolls rallying around this game. But it was also interesting to see progressives drawing the line at Stellar Blade.
Shift Up seems like an easy target compared to the established studios where sexist BS occurs on the regular. We know about the stuff that happened at Activision, Blizzard, Ubisoft etc. We know less about what is happening in Era's beloved Japanese studios.
