Why is this current generation of gamers so fucking thin-skinned? Pic related; it's one of the greatest games of all time and was full of diversity, yet nobody cared.
do you just appropriate what offends you to avoid confronting your issues? what games are about this kind of issue?
>Why yes, I hate when PoC and women are getting represented in games, how can you tell?
the twitter sphere cant tell race from ethicity apart
Blame the Trumpcels, if not for them then SJWs wouldn't get as much attention
It's weird game games have always had women and diversity, at least from Japan, and westerners rewound the clock, or revise history over politics.
The same champions of the people are in charge of american cities that more segregated now than they were 30 years ago. It's all just exploitation.
I hate "bad" and frankly "Shoehorned" representations of women, PoC, and LGTBQ+.
Nobody can be subtle. Nobody can be well written and also be any of these three categories.
Everyone has to be a gross exaggeration of these three categories to writer.
You life is a fucking book. 30 out of 35 chapters shouldn't be one long string of the words "I'm gay/trans/a ethnicity/a woman/bisexual/what have you~~~~~~~~~~~~"
It should be a fucking footnote briefly touched on and lightly sprinkled through out the book.
The only straight people that want you to know they are straight 24/7 are fucking douche bags that nobody likes.
So why the fuck would anyone want that same type of person but for gays/trans/Poc/ and so on.
Fuck. Just write a good character.
only when its unnecessary
>game devs add a fat black gay trans woman to game that adds nothing to the story
>ok
You probably think every poc/lgbt character is shoehorned
>Streets of Rage
>1991
>Blaze was kicking the shit out of entire armies of criminals
>Nobody cared
>Now
>Woman does the same
>OH MY GOD FINALLY A STRONG WOMYN!

Seriously, I think 99% of the problem with gaming culture is media illiteracy outside of video games. We wouldn't be hearing complaints about "shoehorned in" "forced" representation if people read some goddamn literature. People only know how to have mindless video games and blockbuster movies shoved down their throat and anything other than media designed specifically for their demographic makes them lose their minds. Guess what? You've had shit that pandered to you all your life, and you're only noticing and upset by "diverse" media because companies are making things that pander to someone else. Consume some goddamn real art for once in your life and you'll stop having strong feelings about other races or sexualities in your games. I can't imagine a person putting down a Don DeLillo book or coming out of seeing an Agnes Varda movie and then later going back to "ugh, forced girl characters in my games!!" Fucking manchildren, the lot of you.

No actually.
Arcade was a great character. He was gay but you had to pry into his dialog to get him to say it. after that he never really ever brings it up. Because nobody should unless asked.
Gears did some black characters well.
Prey didn't native Americans well.
Hell Prey 2 did basically every ethnicity well.
It's very possible to make games with these types of characters. But everyone just goes for the stereotypical. Flamboyant and in your face.
Only thing I hated about Dragon Age 3 outside of the occasional quest blocking bugs was Dorian and his storyline and character being "I'm gay".
I know this is a b8 thread but I'm sick of short hair. I had to live through a time where the majority of women in vidya had short hair or buns or whatever was convenient for the devs because long hair was a pain in the ass to deal with
I read nothing but books anymore. Which is why I'm pissed off at video games and their shit writers.
I wouldn't accuse the people making these "forced" games to have read books.
Imagine unironically using "poc".
I unironically use phrases like "non-cis", but "poc" is still too meme for me.
I probably should start using it ironically, it sounds like peak b8.

Niggers could use more representation because imagine being born a nigger.
Women have everything best in the world for free, so fuck those cunts.
