In the Age of the Clown there’s this backwards concept that media entertainment needs to cater towards the most degenerate form of artistic depictions. Mainly this means that characters need to represent the kind of people who don’t play video games, don’t care about them, and don’t have any interest in them. It also means that companies will center their creations around concepts aimed at a fraction of a percentage of people who used to roam Tumblr but now occupy the most retarded sections of Twitter and Reddit. That’s pretty much who Bleeding Edge seems to be catering its content toward.
Xboxer.sk managed to upload a leaked E3 2019 trailer for the upcoming 4-vs-4 PvP melee game, which is almost like Twisted Metal but with humans. The gameplay is themed around freak-show characters doing battle with one another while utilizing their freakish skills to kill one another.
You can check out the teaser trailer pulled from off-screen footage of a Dell below.
So I can hardly make out what some of these characters are supposed to be, but I do have to admit that the heavy metal rocker who opened his mouth and had a flamethrower come out was kind of cool.
The problem is that none of these characters look fun to play AT ALL.
Rocker dude would have been an absolute badass treat in a game like Brutal Legend, but do I really want to play someone like that in a MOBA? Heck no.
But that’s not even the worst part about it: the game has no sexy chicks present at all.
Ninja Theory’s upcoming MOBA is going to die a quick death given that anyone looking for attractive females to play won’t find them in Bleeding Edge.
One of the characters that they’re using front and center is an obese, disabled, shaven-haired, cyborg land whale.
I mean you can’t get anymore San Francisco than that unless it turns out that she’s a raging lesbian, as well.
If the Bitchute video isn’t working above there’s a backup uploaded by YouTuber Unnati that you can check out below.
There’s another chick who could be okay but it’s difficult to make out what she’s wearing and whether or not she’s actually hot. It’s nice that they added a redhead to the game but we’ll need to see a lot more than what was in the trailer to determine if she’s hot, especially since it looks like she has a trash can on her head or something. There’s also some tribal looking chick, but she’s got a ton of muscle and a more masculine frame than most of the guys in the game.
This obsession with ugly Twitter freaks in games is just tiresome, though. Normal people aren’t going to buy your game or register to play your title to don the role of a character who would normally give them nightmares and would require therapy to recover from after having laid eyes on them.
Despite all the virtue signaling that Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment did with their non-binary gay folk in Apex Legends, it did nothing to help that game’s rapidly dwindling playerbase.
I can already imagine that there’s going to be a sweet spot ripe and ready on the Get Woke; Go Broke – Master List to welcome Bleeding Edge with open arms a few months after its release.
Anyway, if you’re a masochist and you’re into these hipster games with hideous characters and ugly women, feel free to look forward to the first alpha test to get underway on June 27th, 2019 later this month.
