The puzzles are cool too, I guess.

I slow motioned jumped while spamming arrows for 95% of the first horizon. Was sad they tweaked it on the second one.

I'm not big on stealth. In Cyberpunk, I got bored trying to distract enemies with hacks, so I just started shooting and cutting them up. I might be a psycho.

Weird how no one seems to have a problem with this when it's "north Africans" colonizing Europe via illegal immigration.

Somehow it's only a problem when white people do it.

We all know colonizers is just another term for evil white people.

And people wonder why there are concerns when terms like this enter the gaming space.

Yep. It is used as a racist description for white people and for white people only.

Any white person who supports this crap is an absolute moron who does not comprehend reality. Any person of any other race who supports this crap is a racist against white people who cannot be trusted.

Well I specifically meant the use of the term "colonizer" and the ideals that go along with that. Whether or not I purchase the game will depend on whether or not that ideology ruins the game.

It’s a fully licensed game, so I wouldn’t call it random, but yeah, tabletop game put out by a company that, as of yet, has had nothing to do with the video games

They claim they're working with Crystal Dynamics on this game, so I wouldn't say this has nothing to do with the video games.

"In this game, we seek to continue in that work alongside Crystal Dynamics by creating a sandbox for you to tell stories that address colonialist themes in play and create your own stories of respect and support for the people and cultures your Seekers encounter."

Amazon is in involved some now with Tomb Raider and there is a push for a unified Lara Croft. That is where the worry comes from. Outside of the new games, they are looking at animated and live action shows. They want to align all the timelines and narratives.
