So first of all, let me re-talk about Mighty Number 9. Mighty Number 9 is a kickstarter project that was set up by Keiji Inafune. If you don't know who he is, he's basically one of the main guys behind the Megaman games. Anyway, after Megaman was treated like absolute shit by Capcom, Inafune comes along with this kickstarter and everyone (including myself) goes mad hype because FINALLY we're getting a game that is Megaman in everything but name.
People donate something like $3.8 million to this project, the folks really want a new Megaman game that doesn't suck complete arse and they want it bad. You could go on the Kickstarter page and view all the stretch goals and judging from that, the game was shaping up to be something really good, at least on paper.
But then fucking Dina shows up.
Dina is one of those stupid arsehole feminists that I sometimes rant about ruining games. She is one of those people in their purest form. She starts out by making a post about how Beck, the main character, should be completely changed into a female character because of "gender representation" in games or some fucking stupid bullshit like that. But fine, even if they did take that seriously at least that wouldn't affect game play.
But it gets worse. Due to the fact that her fucking boyfriend is working on the project, she gets taken on board as a community manager. Sounds fine right? She just has to deal with the community forums and stuff like that, listen to peoples questions and concerns and whatnot, right? Well she doesn't fucking do that. A load of issues spring up, she just ignores people, edits or replies to forum posts with stupid snarky quips and locks down her twitter and deletes a load of stuff while nobody can see.
So, she sucks as a community manager, but that's all shes doing right? Wrong, she's also designing the robots for the game. Why is THIS bad you might ask? Well look at the above picture, her artwork fucking sucks a fat one. I don't want shit looking like THAT in what is supposed to be a spiritual successor to Megaman, it's a fucking joke.
So already it's really bad. We have a lying, condescending social justice moron trying to push her stupid shitty agenda and on top of that she has a platform to really push her shit because shes doing the fucking artwork, but believe it or not, that's not the worst of it.
This woman has barely fucking played Megaman before and has what seems to be very little interest in it. The whole thing that made this project sound as cool as it did, was because it was being worked on by people who knew what made Megaman good and they were passionate about delivering a quality product. Now we have this shit head on the team who doesn't give a flying fuck about Megaman or it's spiritual successor, doing that artwork and working with the company on the project.
When people donated that money, they were donating for a "Megaman" game, created by people who were passionate about Megaman. $3.8 million later and that's starting to crumble, so obviously I'm not the only one who's pissed off, there are plenty of people WAYYYY more upset than I am, because their out of pocket on this shit.
Unless Dina is removed from the project, Mighty Number 9 is dead to me. It's probably not going to be the next Megaman game I was hoping for, it's going to be a super politically correct platformer where the fucking ROBOTS are changed into women for absolutely no reason other than the fact that the artist things there aren't enough chicks in games.
Get fucked Dina, I've only known that you exist for about 24 hours and you're already topping my hate list. Burn your shitty artwork and donate whatever Comcept are paying to the Alzheimer's Society you sorry excuse for a human being.
