Did you really just make that comment? Can you not see my profile picture? I AM apart of a marginalized minority in video game or any other entertainment media, and you know what? I don't give a fucking shit. I couldn't careless if the protag was black, I just want an appealing experience visually and through

I reject her argument entirely, I can't even believe we have to make even fantasy games politically correct. Is there any outlet for free expression without all of the baggage that society heaps onto it? Can you not just enjoy an experience without trying to determine its greater meaning (hint there isn't one)?

Not about equality, there are plenty of women in game, you just don't happen to like the way they look or act. That is the source of our fundamental disagreement, I think women have worth intellectually AND physically. You on the other hand think that if a women is saved by a man in games or if she like to wear skimpy

It wasn't until Sark that this movement towards "realistic proportions" was even on the table. Why do we play video games if not to immerse ourselves in a world that is NOT our own and DOESN'T pay by the same rules? Making video games more realistic has not done one thing to make gameplay better, but now instead of

Also the KKK really? If Gamergate was on ANYWHERE near that level something bad would have already happened to her. Those people who insult her are nothing but trolls, she wants nothing to do with discussion, so I don't even bother to look at her twitter account. She lives in a bubble and while her critics are willing

IT doesn't effect gameplay because gameplay is defined at the interactions one has with a virtual space. It's not about her effect gameplay because I doubt you know anything about game design, that being said this is about her influence shaping the resulting games going forward. It already happened with MKX and if it

Then we are at an impasse and while I wish a you nice life, I hope you fail at your goals. I am not sexist because I enjoy sexuality, that is what your ilk fails to understand. I hope they import every single eroge from japan, every single Dead or Alive game (in fact I can't wait for the next volleyball game, which

It's not about right and wrong it is about supply and demand. You do understand economics right??

You don't get to label of entire group of people just because of a movement they associate with, she you address hurt critics because we have zero problem addressing her. She wants to force an agenda on a group of people without a dialogue, sounds like fascism to me.

You don't know about the choice to scale back the proportions of Kitana and the other female characters in MK?

That is the nature of the market. It is a slave to demand and demand for the games like like is high at the moment but that can change (and is currently changing thanks to people like Anita). You have to do some work as a consumer to fit your interests if they are not very mainstream. You know how many games or movies

There is choice if you seek those games out, I mentioned Skullgirls earlier as an example of a game with a unique art style that also features characters of a wide scope of bodytypes and personalities.

I never said they weren't allowed, but that also doesn't mean I don't have right to voice my consternation with their goals and ideals.

I disagree this discussion needs to be had because she is the one seeking change, so she or her followers have to be the ones to address the critique of the idea

That is shit I never said those words, I said that female character appeal to me because they are NOT MEN. They will have different perspectives, different voice work, different mannerisms (which is exactly what Anita is attacking) etc. I also appreciate the female form and at the rate their going I'll just play as my

1. Anita's actions are very relevant because she is the reason we are having this discussion in the first place.

Anita still buying and play the games she is rallying against (maybe because I don't believe she is as about gaming as other females I know, not with the way she played Hitman). So she shouldn't buy them if she doesn't like what they are about. It is not fair to the people like LIKE what they are about. Also it is

I am not saying they have to alter it to appease me, I just won't buy their product if they don't. That is the difference.

They altered the design of the characters to make them far less visually appealing and as a result those characters will be used less and marginalized, the fighting game experts play for the nuances of the combat system. I just like to see a visual tour de force while I fight. That is why Skullgirls is one of my

Did you not see how they have altered MKX? How is that not one side losing out??
