This is the gamer life now, is it? Wait for game announcements, seek out female characters who look like women instead of 16yo anime girls, and have a public cry about it. There has to be more to life.
Also, woman character designed to look like a certain cis woman happens to look vaguely similar to some trans woman? I certainly can't see the correlation there, it must be the work of the trans lobby trying to make the frogs gay.
They're just mad that trans women are women and they can't tell unless the title includes a slur
It's sad to see only "I don't have a boner all the time I am playing this wtf this is a crime against humanity" criticism instead of anything. People worried about legitimate stuff, bugs, character depth, monetization, too much bandwagoning, games being published way after release date. But now all it is reduced to "women and minorities in game wtf?"
I suspect that’s a feature, not a bug. Not that I think Epic or EA are funding these outrage slop farms, but there’s definitely a symbiotic thing going on where the outrage slop deflects legitimate criticism of the industry and creates attention to some games that probably wouldn’t be there otherwise.
The classic lady ghostbusters strategy
