    “let us zoom in on the bum of a female character climbing a ladder”

    As much as I love him, this is Kojima and all his female characters lol. But yeah like I said there's huge backlash no against games telling mature stories, especially if it's about subjects that make cishet white men uncomfortable like TLOU 2. They want games to go backwards, back to fighting fuck dolls and high scores.

      I would kill Joel again if I could, he damned the human race so he could feel better about himself.

        I remember some very old :frothingfash: moments that happened on :reddit-logo: the moment that Epic Daddy Figure With Manpain was criticized for being a selfish gaslighting murderous asshole.

          Meanwhile Brad Armstrong from Lisa: The Painful RPG goes through similar story beats, fucks up even worse and is punished for it even worse, but avoided most of this backlash because it wasn't happening in a AAA game advertised on cable TV.

      I mean apparently death stranding was better, aside from the blatant monster energy adverts lol.

      But yeah honestly looking back weirds me out a bit. Like I still love the older need for speed games, but booting them up and seeing half naked women on the loading screens and starting the races for no reason feels really cheesy and cheap.

        I think that's why weird nerds are so obsessed with pedophile like games from Japan that have underage girl fanservice, it's their last like refuge they can take in toxic masculinity.

          last like refuge

          If only that were true. The Andrew Tate plague, not to mention :up-yours-woke-moralists: shows that the tide is still rising for that.
