Many people falsely assume that woke attack against art started with Anita Sarkeesian - it is not
First woke censorship attack took place in the middle of the 1980s when feminists like Tipper Gore and other "Washington Wives" organized Senate hearing (despite never been elected)
i feel like we lack empathy for girls bullied by girls. these girls arent going to hang out with the popular boys, theyre going to the weird nerds who will let her be the "girl of the group" and validate her existence bc they cant talk to other women. Its not a glam life for them
@_parasocial Boys in school: Hey Beth, wanna play on the playground?
Girls in school: Hey Beth, I'm gonna pretend to be your friend today so that I can laugh about it with all the other girls next day about how you were so gullible and desperate for friends you believed I liked you.
@bigtungstennut@Lemons778 >overwhelmingly cater to heterosexual men
Now that is a lie already cause they cater to lesbian woman like me as well.
But even if we assume that main audience is heterosexual men i don't see how catering to them can be a problem (assuming that you are not misandrist ofc)
women have been playing male protagonists for decades without complaint, yet every year we see grown ass men throwing tantrums over women in games. that should tell you everything you need to know about who's truly ruining gaming now
The popular girls treated me poorly BECAUSE I got along with, and got treated better, by the boys. This is a common thing. It's female intrasexual competition.
@bigtungstennut@Lemons778 It is aesthetically pleasing to look at hot attractive characters - both male and female.
Which is why Capcom for example put extra effort to make sure that Leon Kennedy was as much sexy and hot as possible.
What is the issue with having same approach towards female characters?
Sou mulher, odiei. God of war sem kratos é n é god of war. N sobrou absolutamente nada da essência do jogo. Btw me identifico mais com o kratos doq com essa muié dele aí. Boa noite
Tourist from Africa larp as member of Resident Evil fandom and inciting harm without even knowing that Sheva Alomar butt was introduced before her face, or that Cindy Lennox have Bunny Costume in Outbreak, not to mention Jill in Revelations
You think that misogyny too? (sarcasm)
@JustBotBecky@KenFarmerTV I have to give credit to Amy Hennig and Bruce Straley here, cause they actually created new IP (Uncharted) instead of cannibalizing on Tomb Raider like modern devs do.
I really enjoy playing as female characters. I typically pick them when given the opportunity.
But this isn't about that at all. I want to play a God of War game as KRATOS. Not his wife, not even his kid. KRATOS.
And frankly, mythologies are so interesting, I would love a game about a female god (or male, that's fine too). But this isn't even that.
It's a corporate box-ticking exercise and anyone with a brain knows that. Nobody asked for this.
Being woke has got to be the most miserable hobby.
Everything is "problematic" for you, and you seethe every time you see a beautiful woman on screen.
We haven’t gone by a week without these people melting down, an insane level of sensitivity.
