The only people who’s lifes was affected by cyberpunk magazin fed revolvers are gun nerds, and they will be upset regardless. It’s better to allocate resources on something useful rather than trying to appease every kind of nerd, unless you’re making a simulator, which neither cyberpunk nor Kojima’s drug induced dreams actually are.
Doing research in how something functions is one thing but you don’t have to have first hand experience taking a gun apart or knowing how to kill in order to model or program better.
This is the level of gun worship of some Americans.
It helps you better 3d model a car and texture a street sign?
There is a diminishing return on how much you’re able to use that real world experience.
Knowing how to drive helps but you don’t have to have driven every damn car that’s in the game you are making while also taken the engine of each one apart and memorized the serial numbers. Hideo is going into that kind of territory.
There are plenty of complaints to lob at Americans, but… Hideo isn’t American, and plenty of countries especially those that have mandatory enlistment (Norway, Sweden, etc) will have a populace that is familiar with the operation, maintenance, and use of firearms to a greater extent than your average American… So get your head out of your 🍑?
If people making a game where guns are a heavy focus don’t know anything about guns…
You end up with shit like Cyberpunk’s magazine fed revolvers.
Guns aren’t rocket appliances, you don’t need to spend years obsessing about them to know how they work.
Like, what if someone made a racing game with zero idea how a car actually worked?
Doing research should be a pretty low bar
Nice to see rocket appliances used in a sentence
Then there are Bethesda games, Jesus Christ.
No kidding. They just go and make Khajiit without ever owning cats or even like researching them at all. Pathetic.

It’s a small detail in a video game…
No one’s life is effected.

Blocking gun apologists 🤦♂️
Can you block me too? You just seem generally dumb and kinda anti-passion in general.
Need attention from a stranger online eh? Wish granted. Now go touch grass.
You don’t need to have driven a car to make a racing game…
But it helps.

idk there’s plenty of legitimate criticism to lob at america’s gun fetishism but i just dont see the application here
You’re just a moron, then?
