Oh let me guess they’ve found that girls also play Cammy in Street V because she’s overpowered and the twisted that info to fit their narrative
I don’t even follow the fighting game community and I was like “It’s Cammy, isn’t it?” lol
I love cammy, but she is ridiculously designed.
username checks out
yes, but girls with berets are also peak lesbianism
I mean this is my profile Pic. I didn’t say I dislike the look 💅
Yeah, i can’t disagree with anything of that, i mean last time somebody put on Street Fighter at a party i was playing as Cammy all the time (and kicked everybody’s ass)
Same lmaooo
In other words, women want better representation. Who knew?
females
- You can probably count on one hand how many female characters in fighting games there are who AREN’T highly sexualized.
- A lot of people enjoy a character’s playstyle irrespective of their aesthetic design and/or only like playing them because they’re top tier. Not me mind you: I main Jamie in SF6 both because Drunken Fist is cool as shit and also cause he’s a complete Sex pot…but not everybody is a character loyalist.
I’ll start the count.
- The girl Ice Climber
- Lara Croft
- Samus Aran
Chell from Portal.
Only in the suit
Female characters tend to get a fast, precise move set in fighting games that emphasizes building combos and getting lots of smaller hits rather than getting a small handful of big hits. So this could just be a reflection of gameplay preference.
And then there are the twinks that are always top tier for some reason (Marth, Joker, etc)
I don’t play fighting games, I know nothing about them, but when I play them I like to pick characters like Gun Jack, Zangief, Ganondorf or Paul (whatever that johnny bravo dude from tekken is called) or kirby
What does this say about me?You like doing the big smacky and having people inside you
That tracks
I tend to gravitate towards female grapplers like R.Mika (my favorite fighting game main of all time)
I chose Mario on Mario Kart. That means my idealized body image is a stout man with a comically Italian mustache.
Player characters with exaggerated sexuality doesn’t mean much in and of itself. Just as a boy might choose the super macho character with impossibly huge muscles and a square jaw, so too might a girl choose the hyper feminine character that she thinks is cute.
In those egregious games where the character is poorly masked soft porn, I doubt many girls would pick the character
:nerd: mario is highly sexualized
edit: Clarifying - didn’t mean to imply you’re being the nerd, but like that I’m correcting you and I’m being an obnoxious nerd
it’s a comical way of missing the point. everyone likes sexy characters. everyone likes to play sexy characters. not everyone is an OCD coomer who can only play games as a means of acquiring soft porn.,
This really is bottom of the barrel dredging material… from gamer dudebros trying to justify the status quo instead of actually asking women how they’d improve the characters they’re already playing.
Sensual/sexy characters can have a wide variety of characteristics beyond tiresome old
cliches.Speaking of such, and following Drej Tank tradition, I’ll give an example of a character designed by the woman that voiced her:
Wow Titan AE, I haven’t thought about that movie in ages. Loved it as a kid
Me too.
I was the right age to be the target audience at the time, but Stolen Car Go Fast And Go Vroom Vroom pulled away most other people of that intended target audience so the movie failed to make its money back and the animation studio closed. Even the Playstation game that was coming out for it was canceled when it was 95% complete
I don’t even have to read this article to know it’s bullshit. To this day badass women are way cooler than whatever sexualized trash the chuds want.
It’s kinda funny that your pfp is Lenneth, because Lezard is practically that same chud you’re describing.
Gamer pov seconds before I Potemkin buster their ass
I got master as dhalsim in sf6, does this mean I’m a Modi supporter?
What’s the fighting game? In almost all of them, every single female character is highly sexualized, and it’s the male ones who mostly aren’t. It could be that the women preferred to play as women.
”Maybe this means a feeeeeemale will want to have sex with me” - gamers, probably
is the highly sexualized character meta?
As a thought experiment what would it have done to the gamer brain is women characters were always S tier.
Just like anytime there was a girl you knew you should pick them to win. Would we have had the misogyny problem we have today? I think that would work on most Gamers. I think the worst of them would have turned in to humiliation subs instead of incels.
