Stronk female protagonists are okay when Japan does them

Why the double standards? She also kidnaps a little boy and bathes with him.

Because she’s hot and her being a female isn’t made to be a big deal.

because when the west does it the girl is fucking disgusting looking thats why. Velvet never gets political and neither does anyone else in the team. Its a story about revenge and the sadness it brings even when it necessary.

both characters are cute.

Literally ok if they come from Japan, as simple as that

It's almost like there's a right way and a wrong way to do things. Japan does it right. The west does it wrong.

Velvet is a strong person who happens to be female

Because when japan does it they don't do it for political reasons and the characters have motivations that stem from their actual characterization, not from a political idealogy. Its also why Beatrix from Kill Bill is a good female lead. Female leads were developing quite well and were in the fast lane to becoming as universally accepted as male leads until retarded californians came in and fucked it up to the point where female leads are now immediately associated with SJW pandering and are now less marketable than they were 10 years ago. But this is what lefties want because they want women to be victims so that they can collect oppression bux

Because Velvet had more than just a vagina

...

>kidnaps a little boy and bathes with him
based

He was also her nephew and used as an outlet for her brocon lust.

This shit right here is the truth
Things like gender or sexual orientation simply do not matter (or very little) in regards to a well written story or game. Except in the case of love interests or minor details.

saying "our game / movie is the shit because it has a gay / female lead" just tells the consumer that's the most impressive thing you can say about it, hence it is trash. In fact it's just trying to score cheap points - just shameful really

>jap yuri is between cute girls
>west yuri is between ugly jews
the details matter, friend

This.
When media tries to use "strong females" nowadays it generally comes with an in your face "LOOK, SHE'S A GIRL!" push, along with non-subtle anti-CIS male stuff.

All the western stronk females protagonists are literally the same fucking character designed specifically for certain kind of women to self insert as.
You can at least find something to like with Velvet.

>Japanese game has yuri drawn by a cute girl who gets off on seeing other cute girls kiss
>Western game has lesbians created by a guy with a beard who thinks that representation and diversity are the most important issues facing the modern world

Cute = good
Ugly = bad

Its literally that simple.
this also applies to trannies

That was probably the stupidest show I've ever watched. I just couldn't stop laughing.

Does she remind you she's a woman every ten seconds?

She shows moments of weakness. There's a line between that and the generic western mary sue.

I almost imagine her vag is a giant fanged maw with her arm and infatuation with eating.

No, but she does remind you every ten seconds that her brother is dead and she wants to murder the pope. That's pretty annoying.

velvet is just guts with huge tits and skimpy clothes

As usual, fpbp, etc.

you saying you don't want to murder the pope?

weebs are cancer

Dilate.

They're also okay when the West does them, like Rayne from Bloodrayne.

It's about popularity and politics. People who harp on this shit don't actually give a fuck about the artform or culture surrounding it.

Yes, it is ok for a few reasons.

>she's hot
>she's not part of some political stance
>she actually has a reason for being the way she is, and has character development around it
>the world and everyone in it don't treat her like she's an infallible messiah

Because the problem isn't strong female protagonists, it's that western video game writing is shit.

It's not used as propaganda.

When do people complain about it in western games? People liked Jade or Lara.

I want to cuddle with Velvet for all eternity

It's because Velvet isn't a political ploy or agenda push disguised as a character.
She's a sweet country girl who suffers horrible loss at the hands of a vicious cunt and becomes a flawed, vengeful berserker out for nothing but revenge, who learns some higher truths along the way.

The problem is when "the west" does 'strong female characters', they're designed as political ploys first, characters second. They're transparent in the fat faggots sitting around a table at an office going "Ok, we need 1x blue haired dyke with ear gauges, let's start with that".

Believe it or not, it comes across organically in the game whether or not the character was drafted as a character with a real story first, or a political/social ploy to push an agenda first

I guess TLDR is
Politics should be tacked on; not the character.

Awful character from an awful game.

Poor man's Lightning.

>eastern game has fanservice
>discard it as trash

>western game has political pandering

It feels nice playing games for GOOD GAMEPLAY, and nothing else.

Velvet is a political tool for pushing the /ss/ agenda, open your eyes Yea Forums

And she's evil, which gives her some depth and is closer to reality. Milla was boring and annoying.

no one cares, incel. have sex and get a clue

When you put it like that it kinda puts into perspective all these feminist characters are just the modern bikini babes in movies.

There's no issue with female protagonists, there's been many in the west: Tomb Raider, Beyond Good & Evil, No One Lives Forever...

But it only works when a bunch of talented people write a good story where the protagonist turns out to be a woman. It doesn't work when you're desperately trying to push a feminist narrative with a shitty story and a Mary Sue character written by a bunch of blue-haired trash, all the while implying there are too few female protagonists which is wrong, and implying there's some kind of sexism which is actually true except it's the other way around, because while men once in a while write female characters, women only seem to write female characters.

Don't tell me you got a fucking list too.

>And she's evil
She wasn't evil, she was just LARPing as evil.

>Hollow knight
>good gameplay

>I'M GOING TO FUCKING MURDER ALL OF HUMANITY
>Keeps that goal to the end
>Not evil
I mean just because humanity are all evil too doesn't make it not evil

It's a game that can survive without petty gimmicks like titties and politics. I dare you to find any VN or RPG that could compare.

Say why it isn't good then.

At least read a synopsis before pretending to have played the game.

But hollow knight's whole gimmick is being a metroidvania but with increasingly ridiculous platforming.

But I thought you said it was too easy? Now it's "ridiculous"?

I wasn't even that guy

Because blue haired twitter meme people hate sexy anime babes.
Yea Forums wouldn't care about it in western games but seeing screencaps of some literal who on Twitter saying yasss queen slay! triggers them to fuck.

I miss when Yea Forums had it's own identity beyond "lets do what x group doesn't like!"

it literally wouldn't exist if not for muh soulslike boom
without it game would be just generic metroidvania without any substance, it wouldn't get any tracktion and just fade into nothingness like similar indietrash.
meanwhile removing fanservice usually doesn't devalue those vn or rpg games unless they were specifically made for that purpose

In modern western games where the devs literally cannot write more than one type of woman
>if the player - can't shut the fuck up
>makes MCU tier quips
>looks like a goblin
>Is strong because she's a woman
>being a woman is also the extent of her character
I'm sure others can continue the list.
