    Apparently it's from a game releasing next year called Pragmata

    So basically a Crysis gameplay but with Ghost in the Shell in form of a little girl companion?

    Well... while i see some potential, the little girl makes the mix more weird than cute.

    Isn't that the point? I remember seeing a trailer during Summer Games fest (I think) and it gave me Little Sister vibes from Bioshock.

    can valve ban this one for an inappropriate depiction of a child, because going this far down the uncanny valley should be considered some form of "inappropriate depiction of a 'child'".

    It makes me want to vomit.

    I've been seeing ads for it, there's nothing inappropriate happening in the game and banning it for just being uncanny valley sounds crazy to me.

    I mean exaggerations aside, since just this frame is primally horrifying I'm sure that this horror game is going to be awesome for people that want to be disturbed.

    I just have a really really visceral hatred reaction to things that look like this. I can't express how much I don't want to see this, or things like it.

    Seems like you're secretly telling us this meme is a hit & you want much more of it.

    Upcoming capcom game character. Also this type of reaction has probably locked in the meme - anything people take time to post a response to will make good ad revenue on the corporate algorithm sites.

    Yep, unless a game or animation can hit realism in people so well it is indistinguishable from real people, then the approaching realism just looks messed up.

    I'd say its better to have fake people look stylized so your brain reads it as abstract, and isn't trying to resolve the information continually.

    Edit: Ah. She’s supposd to be an android.

    She's supposed to be burned so I don't have to see it , or so it picks a side in the uncanny valley on the side of "destroyed machine" instead of "this simulacra of a child is going to eat your soul through your eyes, DO NOT TRUST IT AND RUN AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN OH GOD I'M GOING TO VOMIT"

    to paraphrase a northernlion bit that's in my head constantly these days as I struggle with food

    this is a cognito hazard [...] It never touches the executive function part of your brain whatsoever, it goes straight to the cerebellum and it freaks the fuck out and wants to flee.
