Calm down dear.

"Focus on a hobby. Another thing you can try is to focus on doing something you enjoy. This is a great trick for when you're having lustful thoughts at home or in other areas where your temptation is within yourself and not from an outside cause. Having an activity which is mobile is especially helpful, since these…

Sophisticated for its age? It's sophisticated for now. :p

Not life changing?! >:(

Ergo Proxy.

I will just repeat this here: "So yes, I am aware you said 'masculine' not 'men' - I am aware they not interchangeable words, but I am also aware many people use them interchangeably. I had no way of knowing if you are one of these people because I do not know you personally."

I agree with some of it and not others.

Well, as a kid I liked Donatello the most, but kids are fickle, and he may have been my favourite because I like purple.

Well, she's not wrong.

You're being ridiculous.

"I have not seen any real feminist criticism of misandry within their ranks. Maybe you can show it to me or describe how you're totally not like that."

<3 This is the internet, and coarse and combative happens all the time. Apologies don't. Thanks for taking the time to respond (and read it!) I was a bit put out with the "yeah but you're not going into specifics" or "your reply is a cop-out stuff" so thought, right then, have that ;)

Uh yeah...

You emphasise the gameplay - and that's fine. Yeah it has to be fun, though, I dunno, I'd go for engaging, meaningful...to be precise, *immersive*. I'll put up with a game mercilessly torturing me if I'm involved enough. If it's engaged me enough I will have a emotionally harmful BSDM relationship with that fucker.…

No, what I'm asking isn't unreasonable (largely, innovation, an emphasis on story and writing) and the reason I want them is not because I feel "entitled" to more depth, better stories, etc - simply those are the things that appeal to me.

Doesn't surprise me at all. There's been studies that the same actions/mannerisms from babies were interpreted in different ways by caregivers as well I think (like if a baby wanted attention, the 'pink' babies were cuddled and cooed at and the 'blue' babies were played with and tickled).

No, it's not a competition about who has it worse. And no offence, but I think you might be basing your views about feminism based on stuff you've read here on Jezebel or tumblr, or wherever. It's not about man-hating. I'm not going to deny there's not some toxic views flying around from both 'sides', on the cesspit…

"Actually she didn't keep her promise since it's taken much much longer than she claimed in her kick starter and also thoroughly researched? what a joke."

Yes, obviously the game being good is the main priority. Opinions on what makes a game good is going to differ according to preferences though (such as you preferring Gears of War 3 to The Sims).

Sigh.
