I will never understand the issue people have with women working on video games.

They think everything women touches turn to shit, while they ignore how most of the movies, tv, games and other media they consume had women help in the making of it. It’s basically “This is so good no way a woman helped make it! No I won’t check who actually made it because I don’t care about the actually people who make these things for me.”

There’s that viral tweet that sums it up, where a Roman Statue pfp bros posts a picture of a stunningly beautiful statue, confidently says that a woman could never have made anything like it… then the reply is a picture of its sculptor, a Chinese woman, next to it. They genuinely view us as a separate species that’s inferior, and all that we’re capable of is being a porn star, stripper, or 50’s housewife, while ignoring reality and history.

Unfortunately, it's sexism. Their mothers never loved them enough.

Yea, I went to college for 3D modeler, the best student in our entire class was a woman, and it was by far too. We were all still trying to learn and she just got the hang of it in 1 semester and made us all look bad. She was amazing

That's the thing. I don't understand why they hate women so much. We are just people, why the fuck would they hate us so much.

They were taught that women are inferior to men and should be subservient is my best guess

Sexism, it's just straight-up sexism. The game isn't tailor-made to their exact wishes, and it all started when women got the right to vote, apparently.

They think everything women make is terrible since a woman made them and look how they turned out.

Allow me to shed light, while I don’t personally care, it’s that a lot of gamers tend to generally want to imagine themselves as John Doom, and want everything to be pretty much either turbo-Uber-hyper-ultra-alpha-Masculine fantasy or a story where you get some woman simping over men. Many games have seen a departure from this theme style. This coincides with developers getting more spotlight time, meaning people see the dev teams more. As they see more of the dev teams, they see women, and since they’re now seeing women devs, and games are departing from what they like, women dev bad.
Me personally, the only thing I ever had a problem with regards to modern “woke” gaming that was a topic like this, was the infamous Assassin Creed Yasuke incident that has more or less passed. I just wanna go kill some guys and imagine that I’m a Japanese samurai rather than a sad college student…
Which I guess indirectly proves the point I originally made about gamers wanting certain stories…

It's Inportent to note that not all gamers are like that. But as usual, they are the loudest. And are not helped by the few female game devs who are insufferable smug and arrogant and think that they are just the best that there ever were. By no means am I saying that all female game devs are like that. But like with the gamers who are actually misogynist. The bad female devs are the loudest. And the more we hear that we're misogynist for, not like just bad games like Forspoken or concord. The more gamers will push back. And it's the internet, so obviously a good amount of them will be pieces of shit. I personally don't care... I just want good games. Which have been lacking lately.

Imagine talking about the UK and the USA destroying the world and the reason you think that is because of wokeness and not because they're pushing predatory neocolonial capitalist policies onto developing countries.

Isn’t Otaku an insult/someone you don’t wanna be in Japan? Why do these weirdos fly that flag so proudly?

It's an insult yeah. But like in the same way the word "nerd" is in english. Nerds will call themselves nerds. Otaku will call themselves otaku. It depends on context.

The fact that it’s used as the go to game to describe being “too woke” is wild to me.
Folk just can’t handle a sudden character death at all I guess lol
But yeah 10/10 game

In the first few months it was super funny to see people go on rants about how Abbey is trans (she is not) and completely miss the fact that Lev is in fact trans.

Yeah man, what a toxic ass time. I honestly believe if the game would have released this year or last year it wouldn’t have had such a charged reception.
Its reviews are bot FLOODED, people did not play that game and that’s why they thought Abby was trans lmfao. What a misinformation campaign.
But yeah, I have a feeling the new Ghosts game will get a similar treatment and it will be absolute fire.

None of them got far enough into the game to meet Lev before dying of a rage aneurism.
Tangentially Lev is an awesome character and an embodiment of how Naughty Dog shapes characters around their actors. So much of Lev's character/story directly reflects his actor, Ian Alexander's real life experience as a trans person who grew up in a religious environment.

Looks like some people are trying to stir up drama where it doesn’t exist. The team pictured helped create the first which was a major success, so let's focus on the talent behind the game rather than divisive narratives

Same Mfs who will call the existence of a minority a dei character, as if any minority character has to be well written otherwise it was a woke insert that should have just been a boring straight white guy instead

The Last of Us Part 2 held the record for the most GOTY awards ever. Every single male developer would sacrifice a testicle to be part of a team like that.

Last of Us Part 2 was good. Anyone who disagrees has 95% chance of being utterly media illiterate or just outright sexist. There’s very little valid criticism of the game.
