Don't interchange realism (historical accuracy) and simulation. Different things.

1) Actually this is historically accurate piece of clothes of common people. At least for central HRE where the game probably takes place. 2) People were not that crazy about boobs at those days. Remember times when the symbol of erotica was woman's anckle? Well that was some 200 years later...

k, Jim, I agree, mostly. Do you have some positive examples in this regard? I always think of Planescape Torment, where Annah (NPC!) flirts with and seduces the Nameless One (PC). It never end up in sex though but anyway. Although it all happens in text and static sprites it is so natural and...

That's gotta be all the doggy emotions.

And with this I agree. Completely. Also Planescape Torment, give it a try. It is available on GOG.com (use Infinity Engine Widescreen mod to play it in ~HD). Awesome and unsusual game in many aspects.

Save this crap please. I'm just not sure if that counts because the central character is different. You also don't make story-wise meaningful decisions for Kreia so. Also party based. I am just no sure. Where is some female equivalent of GTA 4/5 characters? Or of the Courrier in F:NV? Or Kane...

Playable. I don't think sidekicks are considered playable in here.

It is hilarious that you gave a blog post about a reaction to a post on facebook. Well, I have searched for the particular FB post and I find nothing wrong about the reaction. In fact someone bothered to write a blogpost about one reaction of one (!) woman on PC Gamer facebook post! Now that's...

Any examples? Just, you know, because that kinda contradicts Jim's findings. Women cannot complain about ugly, fat or evil female chars if there have been virtually none. So, some examples please. And please don't come up with some oh-so-evil and at the same booby-butty sado-maso-fetish-dream...

Not that would not agree with the state of industry and the message. But I don't think you did enough research on the non-cliche-female, Jim, considering you really mean what you proposed as only valid example. I think you completely evaded female NPCs n RPGs. What about Tandi, Lynette or the...

Uhm... so... should I thank God for Jim this week? Wasn't told but I would like to because I completely agree with him.

Hohoho, this is the city of Prague they are driving throuhg!
