Blizzard's New Game Includes Strong Female Characters - Will Feminists be Satisfied?

[KC4]

I always liked the witcher better than dragon age. No forced sjw there and its a bit darker

 

[infowarrior1]

I think Dragon Age Inquisition has this game trumped on many levels.

Gay romances for both male and female characters. None of the romances for the male character are attractive. One of them is scarred and has short hair. They also included a transgender NPC, just because. It looks like a really good game soiled by SJW propaganda.

The first one was like that, nothing changed. Just a single player RPG game with freaky humor and sexual innuendo. At least you get to choose what kinds of sexual twists you want.

The first one didn't have any transgender NPC's and the female companions were at least attractive.

vs

It's getting progressively worse.

They should stop being dishonest and make a male character that fills that role. Might as well make the whole party male then it will be an honest medieval band of brothers.

It won game of the year due to the Blizzard army from WOW. If Blizzard didn't make this game, it would have failed!

http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2017/02/25/overwatch-takes-home-game-of-the-year-at-2017-dice-awards/

I hear the game is now boring and losing players daily from some friends, can anyone confirm? I prefer Paladins where the females are more sexy and feminine but playing a female character or vs one in a war environment doesn't cut it for me! Feels soft like a beta! Pip is clearly fucking gay!

I just took a look at all the female characters in Overwatch and most are all dysfunctional dykes . Looks like 30-40% characters are female. Blizzard will never get a cent of my money or Hollywood!!

I bought a new computer last year where I checked out some of the current games (haven't played games in years). Most games have fallen into PC cultural where it's horrible and makes the game boring!! It's just like shitty Hollywood movies today! The games have lost their muscularity which is why men play video games to feel like real men (warriors). Having these female characters make games feel soft and boring now. Even with outstanding graphics, it's all about the gameplay in the end!

GTA 5 story line is a fucking joke!! His wife cheats on him and you can't put a bullet in her head or kick her to the curve. Next his daughter is hoe and tries out for porn. I stop playing when I came back into the game and my character slept with another guy saying some gay shit! At least CS and TF are alot of fun still with all male characters!

On the plus side, due to being force to avoid toxic TV and video games today due to this PC bullshit, I'm more happier living my life and getting shit done! I wasted so much time playing games and watching TV which I regret!

Only one thing can satisfy feminists.

I thought Josephine was attractive in DA Inquisition but I might be in the minority here. I could never get into Overwatch though, the art style looks silly and I didnt like the lack of the story. I prefer The Division when it comes to shooter MMOs.

There have been plenty of games and movies in past decades with "strong female protagonists" - Terminator franchise, Alien franchise, video games such as Tomb Raider, etc. Fact is the majority of hardcore gamers are men, so there will obviously be disproportionate marketing to male demographics; for the same reason that most daytime TV shows and commercials are marketed to women's interests.

The whole thing is just a regurgitated talking point designed to sell clickbait to disgruntled fat bimbos looking for something to blame for why their lives are so utterly shitty, it's just "outrage porn" and deserves no serious discussion.

That, and it's also just pro-corporate propaganda shrewdly marketed as "feminism", which is why the majority of it centers around "getting more women" into boring, white male CEO-dominated corporate jobs that most men hate, as opposed to trying to get more women into entrepreneurship, the classical humanities, or any industry not primarily dominated by corporations.

Ever since the end of WWII when women started working full-time corporate jobs in greater numbers, corporations just realized how much more they could maximize profits if they were able to convince women that slaving away for 50 hours a week for white male executive was somehow "empowerment", so they've been heavily marketing this propaganda ever since.

Played OverWatch enough to form an opinion.

A game where you are at the mercy of terrible team mates putting you at a severe disadvantage if your opposition has even a mediocre ability to form tactics isn't my type of fun. They call it "tilting", stupid word for it. I just call it rage inducing.

The gameplay is easy enough and there are plenty of skill caps to be had but boy oh boy does it fall flat on its arse as a competitive game. It pales in comparison to real competitive games.

A game which requires a healer, DPS and tank combo with multiple picks of the same role is not balanced, and therefore shouldn't be competitive. But Blizz game theory is pathalogical and they will persist in making it what it cannot be.

They dick around with the fun factor and it bores people. At least in CSGO you can fuck the opposition up by yourself or 2 of you.

 

[godfather dust]

These nagging feminists want game developers to spend thousands of hours making a game about obese stank tranny freaks which appeals to less than 5% of gamers, and then will haggle over the pounds of fat being too little when it's done, at which point the game tanks.

If you ask them to spend 30 minutes in the gym each day and put down the fork that's too demanding and misogynistic however. Men are supposed to shut the fuck up keep the power on keep the water running and achieve an erection when there is so much fat you have to lift 30 pounds of it to get to the snatch.

So who thinks Mass Effect Andromeda will end up like a overwatch? It's no secret Bioware has gotten more PC

I loved the original trilogy, despite all it's flaws. Hell, I even played the female protagonist (might not have made that choice these days) because I preferred the voice actress.

I have until the last few weeks been very worried that Mass Effect Andromeda will go full SJW. It still might - haven't seen enough story and conversation footage - but at the very least all the new gameplay videos make me more optimistic that it might turn out to be a good game.
Not sure why they've made the female main character (I'm sure I'll choose the male one this time) look like a cartoon though.

Tomorrow I'll start playing Horizon Zero Dawn - gameplay and game world look awesome, but certainly the (fairly unattractive but at least not fat) female lead, the tribal matriarchies I've been reading about and probably various parts of the story are likely to make the whole experience less than I would have liked.

Good luck with that:

They couldn't make her into a 6 or make her sexy or the feminist hambeasts would have a hissy fit.

Also in the Game she supposedly breaks men's necks with bare hands. Yeah.....

Horizon Zero Dawn – the feminist action game we've been waiting for

And it’s clear what the team is envisaging is actually a very modern heroine; a Lara Croft designed for the 21st century, meant to inspire gamers not only with her strength, complexity and ferocity, but with her femininity. However, for what feels like the first time in years, we’ve got a female lead who isn’t sexualised at all.

Yup - I think that the cucked Omega Males should love it, never see pussy, never see boobs, now don't even see them in their female characters and be told how great all women are.

We wanted a fierce hunter in there and she kind of just appeared. We then spent six years crafting her and making her what she is today.”

“It’s really important that we didn’t look for a woman and that turned out to be Aloy. We had Aloy and one of her very many attributes is that she is a woman. She’s also an outcast and a very fierce person. She’s brave and independent, but why I like her so much is that she’s also kind-hearted and she has every right to be really upset with the tribe, yet she still has it in her nature to be kind to them, to help them out.”

Ah - no - if humanity ever regresses to that stage, then women can no longer be tasked with being tough and independent. They will also suck at hunting compared to other men. They will stay at home and pop out babies at the age of 15-16 and there is nothing their independent ass will have to say about it. Otherwise that tribe would be as good as dead.

Lara Croft emerged as a highly sexualised entity into the era of lads’ mags and Page Three pin-ups, her feminism buried beneath swathes of marketing focused on her other assets. Aloy arrives into a culture where Everyday Sexism and online bigotry are being called out and tackled, where gender and mental health issues are being framed and discussed.

Oh fuck - I cannot wait to hear that every part of the way as I buy a Game and get SJW sermons for my trouble.

Horizon Zero Dawn manages to hint at all this. In the opening 15 minutes, there’s an LGBT reference that caught us pleasantly off-guard, while an early side quest has Aloy dealing with a man who has mental health problems and you’ll have to decide what happens to him and the way you handle the situation.

So you get transgender storylines and their corresponding mental illnesses in the first 15 minutes? Great!

 

[Leonard D Neubache]

^ Yeah, not interested in the slightest.

I was just checking out some beta test videos for Ghost Recon Wildlands and apparently you can choose for your top tier elite operator to be a girl. :tard:

The upside of this bizarre obsession so many media outlets and game developers seem to have with combat equality is that now I can barely tolerate television or video games which invariably leads me to spend more time lifting and shooting out IRL.

I'll reserve judgment - doesn't really sound like something that wasn't already in eg. Bioware games ten years ago, and while my opinions on a lot of things have changed since then I still think I would enjoy many of those.

I don't really care about the utterly unrealistic super woman trope - that's been par for the course in movies, TV and games for many years, and quite often male leads pull off equally outlandish feats and any kind of battle is usually highly unrealistic (I might prefer Nathan Drake to Lara Croft but he's no less over the top superpowered).
I know a lot of people on this forum stay away from Hollywood productions these days - I still get enjoyment from a lot of blockbusters from Marvel etc.

A reviewer will review through their own reality filter so the typical SJW writer might choose to see a pattern or theme where there may in fact only be a few "inclusive" scenes in the game.

Or it may indeed but horrible and gaming is going to shit faster than I thought. I'll find out with Horizon Zero Dawn very soon.

The bullshit is so transparently obnoxious. It sounds familiar and I think I've seen the same "explanation" before. IT'S SOOOO IMPORTANT THAT WE DIDN'T TRY TO MAKE HER A WOMAN! IT JUST "TURNED OUT" TO BE A WOMAN! ONE OF HER ATTRIBUTES IS "I'M A WOMAN." (reminds me of this campaign vid, 1:00 )

As if the hundreds of hours planning, designing and coding these characters are left up to random chance and things just magically "turn out" to be feminist gender theory friendly and not problematic! I thought this videogame infestation shit was slowing down.

I never even played the original Tomb Raider mainly because the protagonist was a chick.

So, in keeping with tradition, I avoid all games where you control a female.

I guess that makes me a misogynist.
