Says who? Just pointing out games like these are tired and cringe and probably paid for by outside consulting firms.
I'll leave it to the sociology PhDs to figure out if just your default triggered quasi-Nazi or just some sad attempt at trolling.

That said, I'm pleasantly surprised to see the game. I really enjoyed the occasional Mimimi adventure (except for Desperados because Western does not really work for me). Maybe my memory plays tricks on me, but that looks so Mimimi that I'm asking myself if they sold their engine over to those guys before winding down. Anyone got something from the rumor mill?

Crosmando: a diverse group of marvel superheroes
What?

Because there are two women in the squad? Two women that actually look like women for a change, on top of that?

Or am I missing something?

Well, I had some displeasure to sometimes encounter those people who start screaming "Woke! Woke!" for no discernible reason and then start foaming at the mouth.

From what I gather, among other arcane rules the only kind of woman acceptable to depict in any visual medium (which includes any kind of game or movie) must have certain attributes which the characters we have here lack. So from that perspective Crosmando's comments make some kind of twisted sense.

I did however manage to significantly increase my peace of mind by managing to tune these people out for the most part. It really helps once you notice they are extremely screamy and loud but mostly it's just the same few usernames interleaving all the time.

I don't know. One has an eyepatch and one has weird green glasses. And the second guy from the right has a beard.

Why won't someone make a Übermensch SSix game? Why are nazi always portrayed as "ebil"? That's so unfair!

I'm pretty sure there is some kind of market for it, but usually that particular slice of the demographics has a very hard time finding and keeping qualified creative talent in sufficient numbers.

Edit: And while my creative juices don't flow so well before my coffee had time to work I'm also not sure how a game like that is supposed to work even if you can stomach all the ebil [sic]. We already went through a phase of boring cookie-cutter muscle-packed bald space marine types as protagonists. It seems to me all those unpleasant attributes would be just cranked up to eleven for ÜSSix.

As the game's lead designer I really wish that were true (as absurd as the notion is that "consultants" would pay others for using their services) but no, like complete schmucks we just made the game that we wanted to make.
