You might as well shut neogaf down while we're at it. Have you seen some of the complain threads that have existed in places such as neogaf?
Don't know, I tend to avoid those kind of threads.
The way women are depicted in video games is absolutely important if you're invested in the hobby, live in first world countries and wish to progress the industry where games can become more diverse and inclusive.
I get where your coming from. It's just that my personality doesn't see things the same way. Damn my personality!
It's funny you said the word diverse, when this drama is all about restricting an artist's expression.
I just feel like there should always be all kinds of games, that way there will always be a game out there to suit a person's taste. Artists do their best work when they aren't restricted.
Some artists have what you may consider bad taste, that's just a fact of life, and something you must accept unless your prepared to have other people restrict your favorite games because they hate something you like.
Of course freedom of expressions leads to women being depicted in all kinds of ways, in positive and negative ways as with everything else in this world.
I feel that if you want to keep getting a nice variety of games to suit your taste, you gonna have to learn to take the negatives with the positives, otherwise your just going to restrict an artist's expression, and the result will be a fearful artist creating generic games.
Haters focusing on boobie pixels will only make the boobie pixels famous, these boobie pixels will then thank you and jiggle their boobs all the way to the bank.
It's an ironic and useless tactic, how many more people do you think are buying this game now because of all the drama about boobs?
What the haters should do is totally ignore titty pixels, instead make more games with good female role models! People should focus 100% on supporting any game that has good female role models and depicts women in a way that they deem respectful, or if they are an artist they should focus a lot on making the female character be depicted in that way.
Of course this will lead to lack of variety of women characters, because there will be a lack of women who dress in a provocative way, or women that people may deem a bad role model, which would rule out all evil characters lol. But luckily there will always be developers out there who know how to have a good balance of different female characters.
I really think it's best the way it is now, developers can make all kinds of women, good, bad, provocative, evil, and people can buy or ignore whatever game they want.
OK I went on for WAY too long, I'm outta here haha.
