@travyscottxx@ColonelAngus898@WolfheartFPS Silent Hill has had a female protagonist in many of its games, same with the first Until Dawn. You'll have to show me these comments because I haven't seen them on X.
@travyscottxx@ColonelAngus898@WolfheartFPS It's not hated on for it's female characters, which is the topic of this discussion. Also chat doesn't need to be positive especially if a game looks garbagio. The point you made was that they were being racist and sexist OR had a problem with a female character, which is false
@travyscottxx@ColonelAngus898@WolfheartFPS Like which games? Alien Isolation didn't have this issue, neither did any of the Resident Evil games. What about Tomb Raider or Apex Legends. What about Elden Ring or Pragmata, crickets. This game looks bad, simple as that.
@ColonelAngus898 The problem is you're acting as if a handful of comments define the entire reaction. From what I saw, the majority of the negativity was just people spamming "L" because they didn't like the reveal. You seem focused on a small number of comments that fit your narrative
@travyscottxx@ColonelAngus898@WolfheartFPS You're assuming the negativity was the problem. I'm suggesting the negativity may have been the reaction. If a large portion of chat thought the game looked uninteresting, then a negative chat is exactly what you'd expect to see.
@travyscottxx@ColonelAngus898@WolfheartFPS How do you know they weren't his regular audience? If they're subscribed, watching his stream, and participating in chat, they're part of his audience by definition. It sounds like you're just redefining "real audience" to exclude anyone whose opinion you don't like.
@ColonelAngus898@WolfheartFPS You're assuming everyone criticizing the game is doing it because they hate women or brown people. Some people might just think the game looks uninteresting. Writing off all criticism as prejudice is a good way to avoid engaging with the criticism itself.
@LateNightCandi_ I guess this tourist missed out on all the games where we played as a female protagonist like Alien Isolation, Tomb Raider, or frickin Resident Evil lmao. A great way to tell on yourself that you only jumped on the gaming bandwagon when it stopped giving you the ick.
@WolfheartFPS Classic streamer ego and narcissism. You shouldn't have brought up the core audience in the first place. If their opinion is irrelevant, your argument boils down to "negative opinions shouldn't be expressed because they hurt the vibe."
@WolfheartFPS Because your post assumes the comments were just a toxic minority hurting the community. My point is that if a large part of his audience thinks the game looks bad, then those comments may actually reflect the community's opinion rather than being outsiders ruining the vibe.
