Game looks better and better every time I see it. They added way more characters than expected. Unfortunately I am not really a fighting game fan so I can't justify buying this at $60 but less than $30 and I'm in.

I'm honestly surprised this series is still getting promoted like this.


This happen to an author here there work would be dropped like a hot potato covered in roaches.

Can we seriously get some moderation for these bullshit replies? Take it to OT.
It ain't bullshit if they want to remind people that the creator of rurouni kenshin is a pedophile and had child pornography and got off with a slap of the wrist.
Now despite this, I'm still getting this as I dont stop getting games or movies because an huge asshole happened to dabble in it. Ex I ain't going to never watch django again because that dipshit asshole Weinstein was an executive producer of it and profited from jt.

I have to admit I didn't liked this game graphic when it was showed the first time, but the more they show, the more i'm starting to like it... nice trailer.

Can we get some moderation for this post? "Downplaying pedophilia" maybe..?
Some of us would like to discuss games without an army of derailing junk. There was already one thread ruined. Take it to OT and rehash to your hearts content.

Lock this thread, repost with mod warning at the top, and let people enjoy being excited about one of their favourite characters making a modern appearance.

on one hand there's a group of people who can separate the art from the artist, on the other there's people who will (understandably) not support the artist.

I'm pretty interested in how the moderation team will handle this.

on topic: game is a 3D brawler so it'll be ass no matter what you do.

It's Himura Kenshin, not Ruroni Kenshin!!

Unless you're talking about the name of the manga itself.

Can't we separate the art from the creator? You do for many other things.

You can either not want to buy it because of a stance or yes. But to come into the thread to shit on the game because the creator is a piece of shit is not cool.

You are thrashing the work of the devs not the creator of Kenshin.

But in this case it's actively giving money to a monster.
Is Jump Force developed and published by Watsuki?

Then why shit on them for including a beloved anime character in their Shonen game?

WTF

Or you can just put me on ignore and continue to live in a bubble where you don't acknowledge your favorite character was created by a pedophile. Who cares about all the children that were harmed by his actions though, right? It's getting in the way of your entertainment.

If you're going to support a piece of fiction created by a paedophile then get used to people constantly calling that shit out. Most people aren't willing to sweep that under the rug because they like a product.

You are never going to get a thread about these characters without someone bringing this up. Kenshin's creator is going to get money from his characters being in this game. This is not OT.

Kenshin as a work is something I'll always love. Who created it has no bearing on that.

But putting those characters in a game and making movies and all while the guy is currently, right now, on the company payroll and putting out new content is scummy no matter how you cut it.

This post is literally this, it isn't derailing to know rurouni kenshin was made by a pedophile who had a massive porn collection of kids.

"Hey, this guy is a pedophile. Should we reach out and work together to incorporate their work?"

"Sure! I don't see anything morally wrong with that! We're working with the artist version of the creator, not the pedophile version!"

I've said this before in threads like this, and I'll say it again. Some of ya'll need some priorities in life, cause this is fucked up. This is a video game. A cartoon character. REAL LIFE CHILDREN WERE HARMED BY THIS MAN. Do you think their victims can separate the art from the artist? Get some fucking perspective.

Is it? I'm not an expert so I certainly could be wrong, but I was pretty sure the money for these crossover games just goes to Shueisha rather than the authors themselves. And while they're the ones paying him for his manga, you'd have to be boycotting every Jump-related franchise to affect them.

This game looks like shit and it bums me out after playing Jump Ultimate Stars on my DS recently. They will never make another Jump game with that much passion/actual fun.

I can understand separating art from the artist to an extent, but I would think being a pedophile that actively consumed child porn would maybe kinda sorta be a bridge too far.

Preemptive "its okay to like art and hate the artist" post

See I honestly kinda agree with this.



If it was referring to just watching Ruroni Kenshin. Actually giving the guy more promotion and money after all this(and suffering very little consequences for the crime from my understanding.)

Yeah that's a much tougher pill to swallow.
