I knew people were going to start with the "but the context!" bullshyt. Like, what is the context that makes including something like that acceptable?
Game set in the 40s. 40s cartoon.

If this game was made in america, would Looney Tunes be “acceptable”

The image flashed the screen for less than a second, it wasn’t even like one of the old cartoons that centered around the old racist bone in nose tribes.

So. That’s the context. You can feel how you like :manny:

I’m not knocking anyone who plays this game it’s just that shyt like this kills my excitement
Game is problematic for way worse reasons than that image.

It’s all nasty euro cac humor. Rape jokes big booty robots, etc.

I like the setting and the gameplay of the game, but everything else is such a turn off. Like walking in a 50s themed Diner and knowing i damn sure wouldn’t be allowed to sit there in the time period they want to re-capture:smh:

That bullshyt cartoon is from the 70s not the 40s.

The game isn't made in America though, so lets just stick to what's happened here.

This doesn't matter. They should have left this out.

can't say I'm surprised but watch the tone about this game change

This game probably should have got the boycott instead of hogwarts legacy

What's extra crazy is the russians had a racist cartoon which looks to be based off Bugs Bunny, the American white washed version of Br'er rabbit, which is a african american/african proverb. Dudes are meatriding subconsciously and still found time to be racist

Is there anything you won't try to deflect from to play console wars? That ad was terrible and it was rightfully pulled.

Authenticity to the time period
It's an alternate reality that diverged in the 40s. The game takes place in the 50s. The cartoons are from the 70s. Why would they exist in that alternate reality anyway?
