A "strong" female character is one that can pretend to love your pathetic ass for material gain
Jace Campbell
>strong female character that tries to be feminine but can't and gets embarrassed
Logan Adams
This. Tomboys are overrated and are shit.
Landon Fisher
FUCK FROGPOSTERS
John Gray
A "strong" female character can manipulate social hierarchies to get people to backstab each other while appearing absolutely blameless and untouchable the whole time
Owen Cruz
>strong
>female
This combination is always dogshit, there is no such thing as a badass female. You need to come to terms with this already for fuck sake.
Adam Perez
This is why I prefer Japanese games to Western games. Western women are just men with vagina, and it's disgusting.
Asher Rivera
But tomboys as they are in anime fit the second description to a T.
Justin Ross
better :
>create character with a backstory and a personality
>roll dices at the end to apply skin color and gender
Austin Ortiz
t. only consumes western media
Brandon White
based
Luis Rogers
>aggresive and bitchy
Lmao no
Brody Parker
Japan is no different for this shit you stupid fucking weeb.
Leo Barnes
Tsundere != tomboy
Eli Evans
>Implying they all aren't
Evan Perez
Shut up, faggot frogposter
Asher Smith
As long as feminine doesn't mean "Gets embarrassed about something retarded" then I'm all good.
Easton Clark
SEETHING
Brody Hernandez
>he doesn't like an "ehh tooooooo, eh toooo *thump thump*" girl
you can like more than one type of girl you dumbass
Isaac Robinson
This lad has admitted to finding attraction in more masculine traits. That's gay.
Lincoln Brown
Kayden Morales
patrician
Gonna use that

>never talked
>had no real depth character wise so it left to your imagination
>for all intents and purposes could have been replaced with a man model and make no difference
Hate to break it to you, bud. But Lara Croft is probably the worst example you could use to defend "strong womyn" characters.
Oliver Foster
Precisely why alita > captain iron jaw
Jonathan White
For me, it's Velvet
Has male qualities related to strength such as determination, leadership and stoicism but also not just retains her feminine traits but they are what compel her throughout the game, she's literally on a quest to be the best big sister she can be and protect her avenge brother.
Tyler Stewart
>Do this
>Always roll masculine black men and feminine white men
FUCK
Nathan Miller
>Never talked
...what?
What the fuck are you talking about?
Jace Brooks
The problem with this is you can't plan around gender or race, which good storytelling isn't agnostic towards.
Christopher Turner
>never talked, had no real depth character wise so it left to your imagination
isn't Doomguy literally the same, yet circlejerked as the most badass character ever?
I doubt showing feelings is necessary for a character to be cool. Lara has a presentation of coming off as agile, skilled, confident, etc. making her feel quite badass.
Isaac Richardson
what the fuck is this thread
Lucas Jenkins
you mean this in the japanese way of "strong female characters should still be cute" or in the feminist way of "strong female characters have to represent the current typical female personality attributes, even if those are literally the opposite of strong attributes"?
Wyatt Allen
>>never talked
Have you ever played, or in the zoomer case, watched one of the old TR games?
>had no real depth character wise so it left to your imagination
So you haven't good to know.
>for all intents and purposes could have been replaced with a man model and make no difference
Which they tried at one point and everyone hated it.
Xavier Perry
Yes you can, by making anyone the target of racial or gender discrimination
Justin Wright
If you're talking about a creative writing exercise I could see that being a fun way to experiment, but if you're actually trying to tell a compelling story I can't see it working out too well. As I would expect if any part of your story was determined by random chance.
Xavier Cook
Nope. Because in reality there is nothing as a strong woman. Either physically or mentally.
Jackson Murphy
This is honestly terrible
Aaron Thompson
That's why we should depict them in fiction so they can exist with other makebelieve animals like dragons and unicorns.
Jackson Butler
>word word word word word word word word word
cringe
Brayden Garcia
>Strong female character never actually takes her helmet off
>Ever
