Just so Im clear, I can't kill trained or wild dogs that ARE TRYING TO KILL ME lol because the devs are idiots who believe that "Indy was a dog person" and 'therefore wouldnt kill one for any reason what-so-ever'?

So far the devs have said the game is "safe" and "family friendly", and that jump scares and claustrophobic moments are "safe" as well. Wut?
Family friendly... but I am whipping faces and can use a gun.
If jump scares and claustrophobic environments (which is subjective af) are "safe", what does that even mean, and why even have moments like that if you make them "safe" lol. Gonna make bullets in to paintballs next?

Ok so here we are. Some idiot decides I can kill or maim people, but not aggressive dogs literally trying to maim or kill me. Ladies and gentlemen, THAT is what we mean by keep your politics and little feelings out of games you're making for other people. It doesnt mean dont talk about oppression or the affects that dictators and tyrants leave on the peasantry. It means don't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tell me that animal cruelty is defending myself from disfigurement or death because you have some bug up your butt over animals.

I bet the devs call themselves "people persons", but sure as ♥♥♥♥ would allow a cop (or maybe even defend their own selves) to protect them from bodily harm, even if it meant killing a gun wielding suspect.

Ok, now Im gonna sound like i hate animals, but this b.s. makes me not want to buy this game. I can maim or kill people, but not a dog that isnt an innocent dog, but one trying to kill me? It's not the fact that that is part of the game, it's that giving money to idealist hypocrites only gives them fuel to further such non sense.

Director dude said this is a FAMILY FRIENDLY GAME yall. You can whip enemies in face, use a gun, blah blah blah. Im so tired of hypocrites lol.

Angry book, couldn't be bothered. Keep clenching those pearls while you keep crying about everything under the sun.

Or you know... go outside and interact with people...

People can moan and whine all the like (seems to be all modern gamers do...)
But it seems very canon that Indy wouldn't hurt animals.

Face it, if a tiny thing like this was stopping you buying it, you were never going to play it anyway.

"seems to be all modern gamers do" LOL. You are definitely under 30 for saying something ridiculous like that. And I didnt say I was NOT going to buy the game. Said it makes me not want to. I got it on early access. And lo and behold; the dog situation is utterly ridiculous and out of place with the rest of the flow of the game. You "assault" these attack dogs, they whimper and run away and act submissive. Then they randomly re attack you lololol. It's like something out of a game for little kids where all you can do is like throw a pineapple or something at the enemy which then goes and cowers for a few seconds before shaking it off and attacking again or continuing its assigned route(s).

It is absolutely not canon that Indy wouldn't defend himself against an animal that is going to maul him to death; especially since the dogs just cower for a few seconds before attacking again. At this point, it isnt even about any thing else except how out of place that is considering what you can do in this game.

Other than that, the game gets a 9 out of 10 from me (with the dog thing not counting against my score ffs)

nonsense. you can use the whip or the gun and dogs run away. the game even shows you this tip. so.....no problem. yeah, you can't kill them but so what? I didn't kill people in the whole game except for the plane fight which was inevitable. a game is not a real representation of the real world. it would suck big time if it were.

Yes, if you actually killed a dog, you are a monster!

Heil doggies!

Completely agree. It's pathetic. You can kill people but not the dogs. It's not about the act, it's about censorship. Someone on the development team has real hateful prejudice and it shows.

... I think it speaks volumes that there's people here actually going "Yeah... I want to murder dogs", also on a side bar, Indiana Jones has continuously stated, "I'm much more of a dog person" whenever being confronted with snakes... they provide actual evidence towards the character not wanting to hurt dogs, and then bring it up multiple times in the main story whenever he's confronted with snakes. Also... if you can't deal with dogs without shooting them... skill issue?

Indy also couldn't kill wolves in Indiana Jones and Infernal machine.

SMH my Indiana Jones game experience is ruined because I can't kill dogs!

Here is what happens in The Last Crusade when Indy meets a dog:

OP is right. I love the game, but you can’t make dogs attack the player if the player can’t kill them. Makes zero sense. Either make the dogs aggressive and killable or don’t make them aggressive. I’m fine with either way in an Indy game, but it has to be one or the other.

You can't kill dogs in the game, but you can stunlock them for an indefinite time if you hit them a number of times. This has literally the same effect as if they could be killed, so I do not understand the problem here?

Then would you be okay with being unable to attack humans but instead giving them a stern lecture on the error of their ways which would then stop them from attacking you?
