Frequency: I am sorry you're opinions are not heard. I would like to hear them. Dr. Grass: You're missing the point, less than bugrimmar is but I'll get to him soon. We're not saying females need to be in every game, that's pointless, and stupid, some games don't need gender characters. Journey was pointed out in the podcast and is a great example. Tell your guys good luck with Broforce, I hope it does well. If all your characters are male then great. I have no problem with that. Bugrimmar: No, again, once more, no. Oh yeah, wow. It's not about one or the other, it's about both. Men and women should be treated equally in games which will lend itself to a better experience. See that? That's logic. You say I'm nitpicking, I'm not, I'm saying facts. A game shouldn't have to rely on the looks of a character to sell. It's happened ALL THE TIME!!! You like how they look, fine. I never started this topic to convert radicals like yourself. I liked the podcast cause it shed new light on a topic that I had had feelings before and wanted to share it so other people could hear the examples they gave. You don't care, fine, leave. You want to go basics? Ok, here's my argument in basics. Females are being misrepresented in game, some intentionally, some intentionally. It's not just one game, or one franchise, or one developer, or one console, it's everywhere. They're making "eye-candy" instead of deep characters, and we're noticing. Don't believe me? Think about Other M, they bring that up, fans were in an uproar about how Samus was treated in that game, which is why it didn't sell as well as the Prime Trilogy. It's like they admitted, it sells. They don't like it, I don't like it, but it's there. I believe that should change. |
Yeah, and if it was intentional, so freaking what?
If you don't like it, then don't play the damn game. If you don't care about the character, leave him/her alone and let others who do like him/her alone. You don't have to go around imposing your stupid opinion on everyone just because women can't make good enough games to change the industry standard.
Go, find your female developer who can make HaloGranTurismoMetroid 5000, and make men and women equal there. Meanwhile, as it stands, THE INDUSTRY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR LITTLE PETITIONS. I'm done with this stupid argument. Arguing with minorities in an area is just futile.
