The article is satire but damn if it isn’t hard to tell if it’s real or not sometimes.

As with most aesthetic preferences in video games mods will fill certain “niches”
Truly genius marketing though
I am obviously well aware that there’s tons of this out there; but I see substantially more posts complaining about those people than I’ve ever seen from those people
I imagine those opinions will be found mostly on Xitter, Facebook and YouTube comments. I don’t browse them often but when I do, it’s not looking great.
Go scroll through the YouTube comments for Intergalactic
Scrolling through YouTube comments is the first mistake. What are you hoping to find there?
men complaining about female clothing, probably
Honestly every time I open Facebook some sponsored bullshit pops up with a bunch of incels bitching about a game being woke. Like I don’t care about video games, I don’t care about Steve Bannons bitchmade online whining gang, I don’t care about “woke” media or whatever. Why does Facebook try to force feed it to me? I’m not interested. So I just use lemmy now.
Social media platforms inherently have a bias towards right-wing / reactionary bullshit. It’s going to end in global tragedy.
Anger and frustration is engagement.
Yeah but my anger and frustration comes from the algorithm trying to show me shit that I have zero interest in. It’s just annoying as shit watching these morons argue with each other over a new video game having too many or not enough gay characters. Who the fuck cares?
Steve Bannon and his ilk care. For every one of you and I that don’t click on the video there’s any number of people who do click on it and get radicalized further. Thats the whole point of “gamer” outrage online. To try and feed impressionable people right wing propaganda and push them further right. We dunk on it a lot in this community but it’s a real fucking problem.
Delete your Facebook, delete your Twitter, stop using Instagram. Get 2 of your friends to do the same. Starve the beast.
You know, advertisers treat these ad recommendation algorithms like the second coming, but they sure seem like junk to me too. Same with family members that don’t bother with any privacy/tracking settings.
…Feels like a bubble waiting to pop. Like maybe all these hyper targeted ads are not as profitable as they’re cracked up to be.
I don’t know, if you’re going by interaction the rage bait bullshit really seems to work on Facebook anyway.
This is so tiresome. Ciri is the logical progression. Besides, how annoying was her gameplay in W3? I hated how incomplete and forced it was. I want to see what an elder blood Witcher can do.
I mean the whole combat in TW3 sucked, not just Ciri’s. I hope CDPR will make a better combat sytem for TW4, one that feels less bland and doesn’t consist of dodge, light attack and quen spam.
Definitely frustrating having a cool teleporting ability with really flowing combat and have her whole play time be basically a point and click with a “boss fight” or two
Agreed. Like her entire character arc sets her up to be Geralts successor.
I’m pretty sure they said Ciri would be the protagonist if there was a 4th game like right after 3 came out too?
I’m the opposite… I kind of have a thing for tough women in armor or “practical” clothes. Does that make me even weirder?
See GOTG game Gamora:
VS her little strips of leather and long hair in the movie. Like, is she supposed to fight in that?:
Though even game Gamora is a little too skin-tight boob/butt armor, kinda like Mass Effect armor.
I think some of my favorite “female warrior” getups are in LoK, like Korra’s athletic, baggy-pants tribal getup or Asami’s huge pockets for tools and weapons. But especially the Beifongs:
Bonus points for Su’s makeshift armor, literally just a cabinet door she slapped on in battle:
Your example of a practical armor has boobs.
Yeah I know, not the best, but just an example of a MASSIVE improvement.
I’m suddenly realizing that metal benders could have levitated/flown like Magneto if they had thought of it.
I dunno. Lots of details suggests bending, especially earthbending, follows Newton’s Third Law of Motion to some extent. Like when toph and aang use an earth slab as an elevator, they are “grabbing” onto the earth wall, or when zuko’s bending failure blows him back. There’s a lot of it in Bitter Work in particular.
Even Zaheer ostensibly obeyed physics by just blowing air around him.
What I’m saying is that bending a metal suit doesn’t let you fly without something else to push against… but maybe a good sandbender could take flight in a sandstorm?
I would also like to add to the list Rellana from Elden Ring DLC in full plate armor:
Ai shit but “battles lingerie” got me
Hey guess what it’s literally Horizon and TLOU2, again, how very refreshing
They have one joke
Gamers: Install mods to remove as much clothing as possible from female playable characters
Also gamers: Angry because a woman becomes a protagonist in the series
Just a bunch NPCs controlled by Putin.
The “woke grifters” and chuds sure are getting their moneys worth on this iterations grift
