  • Female gamers getting fed up too

    From Rin Stowleigh@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jan 5 07:44:54 2025
    The whole "Sweet Baby Inc." practice of requiring female protagonists
    to be skanky, pseudo-macho, unrealistic bad-asses that can beat males
    in combat is now starting to get on the nerves of female gamers as
    well.

    Not skanky at all:

    If they had let Sweet Baby Inc. get involved, the hips and ass would
    get modified for sure; she would need to be modified into some sort
    of mixed race hermaphrodite to lessen the dynamic range in size
    between a cock and a clit. Also any white male characters would get
    an extra set of nerfs to weaken them, throwing off the game balance
    but upping the woke balance.

    All I could think of as she showed the "modern" female more
    masculinized, was it looked a whole lot like Lia Thomas.

    So no females allowed, just trans women - boy that sure represents the
    majority of female gamers. </sarcasm>

    Female badass characters exist since Metroid and Tomb Raider.

    Was there a design requirement to make them skanky?

    The YouTube Lady is very cute n gorgeous ...
    I agree with everything she says.
    The best / most convincing Female action Hero I can think of in recent
    times
    is Kassandra in Assassin's Creed Odyssey

    I'm not even sure how I missed this new message, but I'm sure it's
    something to do with how I use the newsreader software.

    But hello Trimble! Haven't seen you in a while man (and again that
    may have less to do with how much you post then how much I read.. I
    just haven't noticed you posting in a while so it invoked a nostalgic
    response)
