Then the problem is not the sexualization of female characters but the absense of personal characteristics or individuality, which given that MGS5 has not come out yet, cannot really be determined for the new character.

Also Kratos may be idealised, but he was not so strong on personality, but big on physical strength, which kinda fits the definition of objectification.

Also I dont have much of a problem with objectification, the idea that we are a seperate being from our bodies does not appeal to me at all.


Did you actually watch the video.. because it gave way different definitions of idealization and objectification then that.

As for waiting for MGS5... I mean i think we can make some guesses based on MGS general writing of female characters in the past and in general, the juvenile undertones of the series. (In dealing with sex.)

I have watched the video and agreed that the characters in the game were targeted towards a part of the male demographic. 

The game chose to aim towards a certain demographic to the detriment of another. Every form of media on the planet makes decisions to aim programs towards particular demographics including female or male.

The game Dragons Crown was clearly aimed towards men, but it was also clearly unrealistic and fictional. No one will play the game and think the developer is trying to claim that "this is what women are" or "this is what women should be".



This is the Game of Thrones
