My favorite male fantasy that games allow me to realize is that of becoming a successful man despite not executing any meaningful work.
Ah, CEO sim, my fave.
No, no. Landlord simulator.
Civilization series AKA dictator simulator!
hey sometimes landlords have to get up and collect their checks and then go cash it. takes a lot out of you especially when they dont tip
Hey now, I said no meaningful work, not evil bullshit
I played a similar game on Roblox: Dig to find dad.
The objective is to bomb your way some 3 kilometers downwards. When you reach the bottom you’ll find a grocery store where the dad is shopping for milk. Talking to him reveals that he doesn’t want to go home. I don’t know if other endings are possible.
I don’t know how to feel about this.
Is there an adult around? I mean, I’m an adult but like an ADULT adult.
I just want to play games where i am not a toxic shit head and still get to do violence
I wonder if you can fill it with beans.
Only after you line it with jeans.:-)
Bean hole.
And bacon and an epic narwhal. Especially at midnight XD

Yes, games about my instinctual longing for the mines. ⛏️
I know this is a meme but I’m really really hoping that top line is from a skit or something
Nope. It was a BuzzFeed thing about a very very feminist person talking about how gaming only appeals to men. I am feminist, and the piece still got a massive eyeroll from me. They cherry picked a few things and said because of those things gaming was only catering to men.
Worse is that they didn’t tackle any actual issues going on in gaming. Just lame ragebait.
IIRC one of the examples was an NPC in GTA 5 making a sexist comment. In GTA 5, which is of course a parody of modern culture, completely out of context.

Ugh so typical buzzfeed clickbait slop then. Thank you for explaining. /gen
Guess I’ll go back to putting up with all the male fantasy in the cat adventure game I’m playing 😂
Hey, how dare you mention a cat adventure game without naming it? Think about us others who want to fulfill our male fantasies that way!
Cattails: Wildwood Story. I’m on my second playthrough of it actually!
I mean, first of all, how dare you.
Yet, oddly enough, their legitimate journalism arm (Buzzfeed News) was actually pretty great.
It isn’t.
Just straight up accurate commentary lol

Well, some men fantasize about riding horses. And some are more in the Mr. Hands camp.
This game is actually great. I played through fully twice, it’s rather short. Highly recommend if you like digging a hole and upgrading your hole digging ability.
What does it say about me that I’m actually interested in buying and playing this game?
You need a bigger yard. Or a better shovel.
Girls can like digging holes too. Sounds to me like someone is looking for something to hate, and really reaching here, unless there’s something more subtle to this game (I doubt it).
Girls can be great hole diggers, yes.
Hey, I ain’t saying she’s a hole digger
In the original she was talking about GTA and in this meme, the creator is joking
Girls can like being a criminal too.
I support women’s wrongs.
Right but that’s not relevant to my point that this person is criticizing someone who doesn’t exist
Isn’t it bit racist to think only male dwarfs like to dig holes.
Can confirm. Am dwarf, I don’t like holes. I like elves, fellowships and killing orcs. And my ax!
Two questions. What is the surse of the top line? What is the source of the bottom line?
“A Game about digging a Hole” its well a game about digging a Hole in your backyard in the search for treasure.
Relatable to kids everywhere trying to dig a hole to the other side of the world.
Do kids these days still do that? Pls someone research this
Duno about to the other side of the world, but seems really deep ones being dug happens often enough at some beaches it can be a hazard:

I thought it was okay. It’s pretty cheap at $5, but is probably only a few hours long.
That being said, digging a hole is a little thereaputic.
Seems like the kind of game Dankpods would play.
Rock and stone!
What was the original game actually shown to her that led to that video clip? Who chose the game, etc?
Meming this is totally justified though. You could easily say that about any and all entertainment media formats without even looking very hard for examples. Its just without knowing the original context I can’t help but feel the woman got the short end of the stick with whatever show that was from.
She’s watching a clip of GTA5 that takes place in a strip club.
This was a BuzzFeed video, Claudia Restrepo was a writer for Oscar Hates Sexism, and the video was something like “feminists play grand theft Auto”
The scenes were specifically chosen to illicit a reaction. I can’t find the original video but from what I recall, were some of the worst in the game.
Builds character
