You know what? Kotaku, servers of clickbaity outrage porn du jour, have said precisely nil about this beyond posting the parody that nicked found.
You know what that says to me? It's not that big a deal, nobody really cares and that lazygamers writer is having a huge whine about OMG POLITICAL CORRECTNESS simply because he wanted to, not because this is a ~firestorm of controversy~ ✿◕‿◕✿ or anything like that. Yet another entitled white guy complaining about people being offended as if that's affecting him in any way or a threat to society. Yawn.
Personally I think the cover is ridiculous enough on its own without having to bring racism and homophobia into it.

Big difference between genuine homophobia and a fear of surprise, non-consensual buttsecks......which is what the implication seems to be.

Are these the same people that gave us the Blood Dragon DLC? Just wait for it. Next year we'll be inflating enemies into giant floating blueberries and using our Soviet PKMs to commit OompaLoompacide on an unprecedented scale. Nestle and the NRA will join forces to outlaw video games.

Can someone tell me which members of TTLG have colored skin so that I too can use "Yet another entitled {ethnicity} {sex} complaining" next time? Plzoplz.
I like the look of the game, reminds me of Tomb Raider 2013 in places, but I'm not sure these people ever knew how to do a FPS. Far Cry 2 was just above mediocre. Then I played an hour or so of Far Cry 3 and wanted to kill myself.

Which you should have done.

As opposed to TTLG members with transparent skin?
*cloaks*
*stabs everyone in the back multiple times*
*steals credit cards, bus passes*

I'm pretty sure you'd just end up giving children nightmares with your freshly-skinned look. But the stabbing does fit the character!

I have purple skin, dethtoll has green skin and SubJeff has blue skin (I think he's actually a smurf).
