A lógica dos esquerdomachos e de certas “feministas” aqui nessa rede é que uma mulher real que faz OnlyFans, vende a imagem do próprio corpo para homens e lucra com isso, é considerada empoderada, livre e dona do próprio corpo.
Já uma personagem fictícia feminina e vaidosa de videogame, que salva o mundo, salva homens, usa roupa colada e resolve problemas que ninguém mais consegue resolver, é tratada como um símbolo da opressão feminina, algo que precisa ser censurado, corrigido ou enquadrado dentro da visão ideológica delas.
A coerência passou longe.
Just a reminder: CI Games was forced into the public gaming debate by selected media outlets over one simple paragraph in early January 2025.
On January 8, 2025, in an investor call with Polish investors, Ryan Hill said:
“We remain committed to producing player-first video games that prioritise an excellent user experience with compelling thematics and characters created specifically for core and adjacent audiences. While some video games have recently taken the opportunity to embed social or political agendas within their experiences, it is clear that many players do not appreciate this… we will not be integrating any social or political agendas into these experiences going forward.”
That statement was immediately reframed as anti-DEI and even transphobic by outlets like PC Gamer (“fear of the DEI boogeyman”), Rock Paper Shotgun, Eurogamer, TheGamer and others.
Saying we do not want to embed political or social agendas into our games is not the same as opposing diversity or inclusion. I am immensely proud of our NATURALLY diverse workforce — all of whom earned their place through skill, creativity, and expertise.
The media continuously forces us into the spotlight, but we refuse to stay silent. I went straight to our community with a clear poll: In a medieval fantasy action-RPG, do you prefer Body Type A/B or Male/Female? The results were overwhelming — Male/Female won by a massive margin (88% of the ~49.5k votes). This extremely strong community feedback only strengthened our Players First mission.
Lords of the Fallen II is being made for the soulslike community. It is a video game. Not a political statement.
