@eremineee If you're sick of 'all' of them then why don't you dip out of the industry that men created and women stigmatized as a 'loser' thing until it went mainstream
@princesalamwane Men built gaming. You didn't. Women largely supported the stigmatization of gaming as a "loser hobby". You should conduct yourself with a bit more humility and gratitude in this space
@Rechardart The anti-Ciri hype was dumb, and very limited thankfully enough. That being said, I do see a subtle yet growing wave of Ciri fans who want Geralt perma-sidelined as some sort of generic girldad figure and it's pretty annoying, the books have him active yrs after BaW's events
@kayladelancey They 'complained' about the idea of replacing Kratos with Atreus as the protag too. It isn't about gender for them. You feminists need to be chased out of the gaming world
@1mycah@GodofSloppytop@LateNightCandi_ Typo. She said 'As if we haven't had to'. As if + we haven't had to means we have had to i.e., we've been compelled to... Are you guys really this dense
@Chandle74418127@GodofSloppytop@LateNightCandi_ Also horseshit because the gaming world's had plenty of female lead characters...
And again, framing MALENESS as a negative that needs 'counterbalancing' is inherently gender essentialist. It's your simp goggles that need to be removed
@1mycah@GodofSloppytop@LateNightCandi_ Do you know what 'have had to' means you fucking imbecile, that wording implies strongly that women were *forced* to play *male* characters
@Arron_TK Nah, gamers who played Tomb Raider for decades, are hyped for Tides of Annihilation and have loved having major female characters in all kinds of franchises don't like KRATOS BEING REPLACED. GoW fans literally don't even want Atreus replacing Kratos. It's not muh misogyny
@secretlyawasp@GodofSloppytop@LateNightCandi_ Men literally played as Lara Croft for DECADES. Men are geared up to play Tides of Annihilation. Men didn't want Yennefer, Triss, Ciri or whoever sidelined from The Witcher franchise. This is all just more aggressive feminist turf-grabbing
@khaliltooshort Feminists are defo trying to ruin gaming. Anita Sarkissian wasn't a one off, this is a prolonged campaign. Erase male characters, replace with female
@Foxxin1104@LateNightCandi_ I'm teaching you basic comprehension. "Have had to play" = 'forced to do something we don't like' + "as males" = maleness singled out as a negative trait
