The same old social media grifters are at it once more, and this time, they’re after Ghost of Yotei actor Erika Ishii. The sport’s reveal at this week’s PlayStation State of Play was met with a optimistic response from followers. However a small part of the group, which spends extra time incessantly complaining about video games than truly enjoying them, discovered her social media handles. All hell broke unfastened.
As quickly as Sucker Punch Productions revealed on X that Ghost of Yotei protagonist Atsu was performed by Ishii, their replies have been clogged by absurd complaints of pressured “girlboss” narrative, historic revisionism (as if we take historical past classes from a recreation), and “woke” (regardless of the hell which means on this context).
Within the midst of all of it, trolls found that Ishii has no most well-liked pronouns, is a member of the LGBTQ group, and… wait of it… has a coiffure to not their liking. Seeing this, Ishii began blocking folks, which additional annoyed them.
“Woke and unhinged,” claimed one grifter, who didn’t waste time producing a YouTube video on this all-important topic. “The actress for Ghost of Tsushima sequel is actively blocking folks,” moaned one other waste of house, who feels entitled to have entry to Ishii’s social media. “That can work wonders for the sport.”
The gaming group and business professionals have since been talking out in help of Ishii, with former Sony boss Shawn Layden chiming in to recommend that the trolls both make their very own recreation or chorus from shopping for what they don’t need to play. We agree.
