“Review” Site Bashes Code Vein’s “Edgy Anime Designs”

The latest despised article to slink its way onto the Internet has come from none other than another supposed video game site turned political, this time with the upcoming Code Vein being disparaged for having “edgy anime designs”.

The short article is a supposed review discussing Code Vein’s closed network test but every now and then subtly bashed the game for having anime designs and an “anime plot”, the site now devolving to the point of simply hating anime-style visuals.

While the article writer insists they had a fun time playing the game, many noticed the instances where they complained about the anime designs, which might have just been some cheap attempt to generate controversy to try and stay relevant:

“Beat-for-beat Dark Souls gameplay and edgy anime designs might seem groan-worthy, but teaming up with other players to defeat difficult bosses was incredibly badass, if a little simplistic at times. Code Vein is, as they say, a land of contrasts.”

“There’s a split here between the eye-rolling anime plot and the actual experience of playing. On the one hand, there’s a vague story where your character is an amnesiac, blood-absorbing chosen one with a scantily clad magical companion. For the record, her boobs are big, and the slightest breeze sways them like a pile of coconuts in a hammock. It was more than a little distracting. If you can’t get over the cheese and sleaze, I wouldn’t blame you.”

“Code Vein will presumably release sometime in 2019, and it could provide a good waste of time until Nioh 2 arrives. Just try not to cut yourselves on all of this edge, okay?”
