007 First Light developer IO Interactive has said that their version of James Bond won’t be anything like the “old school” spy of the 1960s, a decision the studio claimed would would be “tone deaf” today.

Looks like I won't be buying this until well after it comes out to see what "modern values" they inject into the game. Shame too because the gameplay videos looked good.

Whelp. . .I'm out.

Will the usual posters claim it is the greatest ever, like they did with AC Shadows?

sicboy has already preordered the ultimate edition where 007 gets to scissor a MIP tranny agent on a private jet.

this is the same crap that started the downfall of the 007 with Daniel Craig and Casino Royale.

Bond shouldnt be "emotionally vulnerable", he should be a ruthless killing machine like Agent 47 that also fricks bitches.

Still buying it because the recent Hitman trilogy was awesome. As long as the gameplay is similar I expect a fun game

I told people here when the original trailer dropped and everyone got all mad at me even though it was obvious what was going on.

Outside of Bond pretty much every single character is brown or a woman and the women are all hideously ugly.

That alone should have told you everything you needed to know about what they were going to do.

Good. That will attract the non-existent market they want and chase away whatever real market remained for such a game.

Brilliant!

Even if you liked the film it still changed bond as a character due to instilling "modern values"

quote:

Casino Royale (2006) modernized James Bond by deconstructing his traditional persona, replacing the "suave, invincible" agent with a raw, vulnerable figure defined by emotional depth and realism.

The film introduced several modern values and thematic shifts:

Emotional Vulnerability and Growth: Unlike previous iterations that "reset" with every film, Daniel Craig’s Bond was "brazen, reckless, and emotionally charged," capable of making mistakes and feeling genuine heartbreak. The film serves as a character study, showing his evolution from a "blunt instrument" to a man scarred by betrayal.

Deconstruction of Chauvinism: The film challenged Bond's traditional "suave, womanizing persona". His relationship with Vesper Lynd provided a "refreshing depth" to the Bond girl archetype, featuring sharp wit and emotional complexity that forced Bond to engage with her as an equal rather than an object.

Humanizing Flaws: Bond was presented as an "impulsive" agent who let his emotions get the better of him, making him more relatable to modern audiences. He was frequently "bruised" and physically vulnerable, departing from the "invincible" hero of the past.

If you’re saying it’s the best modern Bond? Fair.
Best reboot? Absolutely.
Best Bond movie ever? frick No.

That's a shame. IO did a good job with their recent Hitman trilogy.

Why not make a 007 that is recognizable to the fans of the series and plaster a big gay disclaimer that "the content of this game is from a different era and does not reflect the faggotry that our studio believes in."

That way they can make a game that doesn't suck shite and they can still virtue signal.

Everybody wins.

He's going to sleep with a woman, but then call her the next day.
