Well, I'm not going to have any interest in the game now.

My problem isn't that animals died to make the game. That's a bad thing, but my actions can't affect it. They're already dead. My problem is that this game is going to further extremes than any other game to deliberately include and glorify animal killing. I kinda forgive it in games like BOTW or Horizon because it's part of the story, they're just portraying life as it exists for some people. They're not thinking about their actions. The dragon's dogma people are. They are intimately aware of the fact they're glorifying death, they took the time to think about it and said "that's a good thing".
