They are call Newts
Also, you can kill kids in the original Deus Ex and Fallout (if I remember correctly).
whataboutismI'm sorry but I'm not english speaker and I not understand you but what I am trying to say that I am tired of this "press" so conservative with some aspects but others that affect our lives like privacy for example are not important for them. We are talking of a game that i am sure that will be rated at least for +13 years... seriously I think that for them only matters the drama and the clickbait. Waiting for day one patch removing the childs after the drama.
People just name several games in this topic.I think there's no denying that it crosses A line - you essentially never seen children as an attackable object in ANY game, much less as an actual enemy that needs to be killed to progress.
The question is more wether that line needs to exist in the first place.
Nope since they mostly keep out of way and just watches you from high up, they only attack if you are low on health or in their territory up high.No. While I accept there are things in a video game that are distasteful and should be criticised there is a point where you have to accept that it's just a video game. Murder and violence are abhorrent and we enjoy games where you kill and/or fight people despite knowing this but we don't ask the question of if this is crossing the line because we accept it is just fiction. I'm not sure why this would change just because the thing you're killing are undead children instead of undead adults.
We must ask if it is crossing the line if this encourages or promotes the harming of real children and poses any potential risk of people translating in-game behaviour into the real world. Will Days Gone do that? I'm 99.9% sure it won't.
No, they're not zombies.
I mean, the first human enemy you see in the first trailer is a kidfreaker. Not really a spoiler.I know some love to know as much as they can about a game or movie... or watch trailers over and over again... or ask others what happens in the end of a game/movie.
But for me, I would have loved to have been in that situation of a child freaker coming out of no where....and being stuck and surprised...and that hesitation of not knowing what to do..which might have got me killed... well that would have been a nice little experience along with the rest of what the game might have to offer.
Again, I'm sure it doesn't mean much for the folks who don't care about spoilers, but little things like that is what I look forward to. Experiencing for the first time.
Similar to dead space 2, which I don't believe had any significant press about its child like enemies.
No one really mention it in their preview the game was been shown on BBC news.oh for fucks sake...this is gonna be on the reviews too isn't it..
