The agenda is more important that earnings.

I love when they come out and announce their woke crap. I won't accidentally pre-order.

And before the liberal moron chimes in, just shut the frick up. Every single time they say MODERN AUDIENCE it means woke garbage. 100%.

No need to buy.

This tells me everything I should know.

It’s everywhere, not just in the bigger companies.


Gaming is truly dead.

lol "modern values". I bet those won't include gun control (no guns), because their customers want to shoot people, and they know that and would never compromise that much. But they'll stick you with some woke shite.

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

Is cake a modern value?

Yes after watching some gameplay. The main ranking person over the company or whatever is a woman. The next one in line or so is a black woman. The best MI6 driver and trainer of the course test is a woman. lol The main trainer dude is a black man. That was enough for me.

Feels like James Bond is a pretty much a dead franchise anyway. Especially to the younger crowd.

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

I like Judi Dench, but that sort of proves the modern Bond for modern audiences thing doesn't it.

Sounds like the game will be pretty "modern".

Having a female boss isn't a big deal, but other dude was saying most of the cast is female.

I don't care about the game. I aint buying it. I already have games to play. I'm just trying to keeo the argument going because Im bored.

Cast isn't terrible that I've seen. The "second in command" woman that dude was talking about is just Moneypenny, who is not second in command. The instructions she gives bond from the intro mission are just readouts from an AI that determines probabilities of success. She's really not doing much there and at that point bond isn't working for MI6, he's just in the military and is the only survivor of a crash who can help the situation. In fact, Bond's disregard for her orders is what gets him invited to the 00 program in the first place.

M is a woman, which is not breaking any new ground. The second in command is the dude who plays Sol in Snatch. I believe he was also in the walking dead


ETA: Some light spoilers in there I suppose, but that's all from the tutorial mission

I thought I did remember the first one for a second there. Turns out I was thinking of the dude who played Q.

I do like Fiennes in the role, but he's still playing M so I'm not sure if remembering him counts
