Was he right?

>wow these female soldiers and generals are so unrealistic!
>it would be fine if they were kawaii anime girls though :)

Surely they're not looking at reviews of games they already own every day, are they?

>female generals

who wanted this?

I don't see any contradiction
if you're going to be unrealistic you might as well go all the way

He's right, but not in the case of TW.

It has no option to turn it off without mods, and the whole series is about autistically roleplaying. Having some factions have half their leaders and generals be women in 200BC is just retarded.

uh yeah? one is pleasant and the other is fucking retarded and pointless.

What games would be enhanced by an option to turn on or off female characters, Yea Forums?

>Why doesn't anyone take games seriously???
>WOMEN IN MY VIDYA? REEEEEEEEEEEE

Who?

Completely missing the point but what do you expect from a kotaku "journalist".

Valkyria Chronicles in nutshell.

The contradiction is that you're lying to yourself, weebs don't care that they're unrealistic, they just care that they're ugly.
So instead of lying, just say you want attractive women.

This happened months ago, but I've never heard about it being optional until now. Is it really optional, like unit sizes?

why?

All games should allow me to replace the entire cast with cute lesbians

all western games should have that option so I don't have to see the uggos they make

I can do that in roller coaster tycoon. All the brown customers get put in the water block as well as the female ones.

No

I can turn off women every day. I don't need to do it in my fucking videogames too.

First answer, correct.

and what makes you think "weebs" are the ones playing a total war game, about rome, you absolute nigger

No. Propaganda faggots who feel entitled to success are never right. The actual fans and consumers are

How about the fact that 90% of the people complaining about it on Twitter or the Steam forums had anime avatars, you fucking retard?

so you don't know, you just assume because it fits your narrative
absolutely epic

to be fair Total War is literally a weeb series considering it a) started with Shogun and b) is owned by a Japanese company

those are ironic weebs newfriend

Keep crying over women incel.

>heh this will show those stupid incels!
>cute things are cute!
What is your point?

and here comes another assumption, paired with an insult too
this is getting too epic for me

Maybe there are some people who enjoy their simulation games when they're realistic and fantasy games when they're fantasy, dummy. Nobody expects and anime game to depict realism.

It would only hinder the game to have less options in it.

Your first reply to me contained an insult, you dumb fuck. You're so retarded that you don't even know what your own comments contain.

Because I see resetera threads and Chinese mandarin messageboards with hundreds of postswhere they call for them, and then there’s a review bomb.

yes and no. considering the game series we are talking about no, he is wrong because its obvious no fan wanted it.

paired with an actual argument you nigger
now try again

Weebs aren't anti women, in fact most weebs really wanna be a woman (preferably a 7 year old girl)

Many fighting games. Skyrim. The sims.

I fucking love the hypocrisy of those leftards who pretend it's bad to want cute girls, but if you go on Yea Forums and Yea Forums they literally only defend their own garbage with sex on the underaged character.

>I see resetera threads
unbased and cringe

Do you expect me to hold a study on who is and isn't a weeb and happens to complain about women in Total War? I'm just stating what I see, yes it's an assumption but 90% of the people who complain about this shit on Twitter or Steam have anime avatars, that's just a fact.

>Nobody expects and anime game to depict realism.
Except when Pokemon had dark skin tone option and anons tried to put realism in how many blacks are in Hawaii and why Pomemon Sun and Moon is sjw.

but there was no option you have to mod it out

That's what we've been saying in every "IT'S OKAY WHEN JAPAN DOES IT" with the lesbians in video games threads, why would anyone lie to themselves about that?

Attached: 1553630607456.gif (200x160, 904K)

I accept your concession

The thing is they didn't have this originally, they added female generals (which is complete horseshit in 200 BC) in later, like any of the TW fans ever asked for it. And then they get mad that the players don't like it.

i can turn them off? what's the issue? it isn't like the game was forcing the or anything

Attached: 0d9.jpg (500x466, 35K)

Yes, more games need to option to turn off female characters

>i can turn them off?

no

They don't necessarily have to be anime, but they do need to be cute.
Unfortunately western developers just make men and call them women.

You have to install a mod afaik

Not op but he is a small time eceleb who has some comfy call in streams

If the game claims any level of authenticity it should have at least a veneer of realism.
If the game does not claim authenticity it should be unrealistic in ways that are pleasing to me.

Where is the contradiction? These are different products, of course the standards are different. Some are simply arguing that the changes made transition the product further from the first type and closer to the second, thus the potential change in ideal. In the state the developers tend to choose neither standard is satisfied and the customer is left unhappy. How is this the customer's fault?

Basically it's niggers a'mrite

Blaster master zero 2,Xenoblade games and Fire emblem.

how the fuck did you even find this literal whos twitter
what the fuck are you doing with your life OP

I don't get this at all. Of course it would be fine if the women were attracting. Beauty is the only thing that matters regarding this stuff. If you're gonna force women in a setting where they don't belong then it's obviously to make them cute and pleasing to look at. What else is gonna be the reason for that? This reasoning is beyond retarded

If there was a option there wouldn't have been a shitstorm

>Skyrim
>no more based orc blacksmith wife
I don't agree

Attracting what? Attracting ESLs like Yea Forums?

>They don't necessarily have to be anime
Yes they do in the most litteral sense if they aren't then Yea Forums acts like they don't exist see The Witcher

Ftfy

I wish every game had a toggle so I could remove female characters. Most games would get substantially better.

To make themselves feel smarter than "Me want penis be happy".

Should have allowed for armies made of all men, all women, or both. If they did the resetera trannys would have less to complain about

You can do that with mods anyway, right? Not like the game is on consoles.

I have no problem with women in video games but when they're forcing it into a game based on a particular time period that is more or less trying to realistically depict that time period then it just seems out of place and more like they are doing it for political points.

But the trannies aren't the ones complaining

Welp, I guess Total War is dead.

I liked Attila.

please remain in the anime girl board and never get out

Just like 300 right

depends on the game, why do this shit with a total war game

it's the wrong crowd for that kind of virtue signalling and benefits nobody

if any game forces women into ancient settings where they dont belong i wont be playing it

it's just how my white devil male self is, don't be bigoted against me

dumb redditor misusing the quote function to strawman. go back.

300 was based on a jew comic book and never tried to be accurate

spartans kept slaves while persians had it banned

thousands of other kinds of greeks fought along side the spartans

I wont even mention these other comically inaccurate stupid shit

I don't know anything about this, but just the fact that this is about video games means you are an idiot if it makes you mad.

The real reason that women hate videogames is that they made men manchildren afraid to go for them.
>change my mind

you have to change a single number in notpad

>doesn't understand how greentext works
Go back

too many other games to play if you don't like something. they said their piece.

Manchildren and other kinds of permavirgins were already not getting laid, why the fuck would they care all of the sudden if you start crying "have sex!" and other shit at them?
If anything its that they miss their high school days and just want to go back to shitting on people with no repercussions.

They go after all nerdy mostly men stuff (games, movies, rpgs, stem).
Feminism is a cry for men to man up.
The funny stuff is that betas just ran with it lol

You will have female generals and you will pretend to like it, bigot.

You don't actually believe that do you?

Nothing to man up for if the bitches telling you to man up are disgusting both physically and mentally. You can't get something for nothing.

Why not add the options of flying dragons and elf magicians?

you can't turn them off, fuck off basedboy

No.
Women aren't fucking generals

Yes, there's a bunch of women that are just ugly and hate men.
Most of the girls just grow out of it when they have a strong male presence.

would make me insta buy the game ded srs

Japan doesn't pretend they're being progressive, they just like cute girls so they put cute girls in.

>bend the rules slightly while trying to maintain the aesthetic
vs
>throw the rules out the window because you're too autistic to care about the difference

Knowing how stupid women are you're probably right in a way.

>Create realistic game based on historical setting and insert women in a completely unrealistic way, most likely for ideological reasons

>Create alternate history game with anime art style and gender-swap historical figures because you like cute anime girls and jerking off to them with no pretence of playing it off as even being remotely accurate to history

Hmm

That's right, that's literally my train of thought and I have no idea what point you're trying to make by just posting what I'm thinking right now.

Let's not all pretend you're mad because it's "unrealistic", at least be sincere with yourself, you hate women.

>make a historical game for history autists
no
just no
this is not what total war game have been ever

Well according to the thread the option isn't actually built into the game. Making OP a little disingenuous.

You ever been to california colleges? They don't grow out of it.

Japs actually Know fact from fict. Yes, they add traps to some stuff, but traps aren't trannies.

alt-history and weebshit with historical figure names are two different things. Also anything inserted for some asinine trendy ideology is inherently worse than anime tiddies by a massive margin.

the game isn't available on consoles so it's not like it matters

>It has no option to turn it off without mods, and the whole series is about autistically roleplaying
The only way to "autistically roleplay" is by using mods. History spergs are already going to be triggered by whatever ahistorical stupid shit the game has before women even enter the picture.
>Having some factions have half their leaders and generals be women in 200BC is just retarded.
Granted I haven't put that much time into it, maybe a few hours, but even with factions that had women able to become generals there was never a point where they came even close to half the pool.

It is, just change a number in notepad

Always funny how they REEEEE at any negative reviews as "review bombing" but conveniently ignore 10/10s being spammed by shills as well.

they should have just made the ahistorical female leaders attractive so everyone would go
>UGHHHH MUH DICK BASED CREATIVE ASSEMBLY TAKE MY MONEY
instead

Because men don't man up and just follow along.
It's like a kid throwing a tantrum, they want attention and discipline.

>female units in Empire
>female units in Shogun 2
>female units in Rome 2
No one really cares
>Female general update in rome 2
Everyone flips shit
Why?
You can't argue historical accuracy on the basis of the units in empire and shogun 2.
What in the fuck was the problem?

Who the fuck cares if they are male or female as long as the game is fun?

It doesn't line up with their narrative if they point out that these review sites are completely untrustworthy at this point.

>CA releases update that gives very specific factions a 10% chance at putting a female general in the recruit pool. One faction has a 50% chance. These are restricted to factions which historically had female generals, and the 50% one reflects that all nobility in that faction was required to lead, regardless of gender.
>Factions that never had female generals, like Rome, did not get female generals
>Someone fakes an image on the steam forums claiming they could only recruit female generals and then claims rome is running around with them
>retards on Yea Forums eat this up and scream about ES JAY DUBS for months
>Truth comes out that it was fake and the reality is more reasonable
>Yea Forums still triggered months later, doesn't want to admit it got baited and trolled.

Trend. More incels are coming out of the proverbial closet...
