It's not "not appealing." It's specifically being dicks to a particular group of people just to feel like an edgy seekrit club of oppressed snowflakes. Not even Twilight shits this much, this consistently and this actively on the other half of humanity. Valve games have shittons of female fans...

Except, again, that the lowest theoretically possible common denominator would not consist of less than one-fifth of the world population. (That's the actual proportion of white people in the world. And that's before sex, sexuality, age or religion enter the picture.) Not quite. The problem...

This is what gamers actually believe.

You're the one not getting something. Nobody buys girly-girl games because 1. people -- even the ones with vaginas! IMAGINE THAT -- are smart enough to see through bullshit, leading to 2. they're shit. They're poorly-made shovelware with no budget. Nobody with half a brain would buy those...

Hence "not actively shitting." The "claim to fame" of Alyx Vance, Chell, GLaDOS, Zoey, Rochelle and the Announcer, if it can even be called that, consists entirely of 1. having a vagina and 2. not being absolute shit from a design standpoint. And it works like a charm because it's exactly the...

I forgot how well-known Valve and Nintendo were for their unpopular, underselling games. Or are you implying that people buy games to masturbate?

^ Did you just imply blockbusters are for straight white men? Maybe they are. But why? To my knowledge, most of humanity isn't a straight white man. <url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/jump/18.406654.16934894>Yes. Exactly. Women are stupid and gay and they hate sex unlike the poor...

No it isn't. What you demonstrated isn't whether they care, it's whether they succeed. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't, and that's irrelevant. Vamp characters like Morrigan Aensland and Nina Williams often end up with good design -- their design philosophy didn't magically stop sucking...

I don't care for RPGs. Welp, what now? Guess I'll just play no game ever. That works.

^ SO BRAVE. Other people are able to distinguish good character design from bad one. But fuck them, they're gay and FEMINIST.

Are you implying male character design can't be shit? Because it absolutely can. All of the designs you said were shit were indeed shit and nobody hesitated to call them out as such. Now let's at least try and hold female characters to the same standard. What's there to lose? It's not like we...

The problem lies in the fact that character designers only give a shit about good character design when it has a dick. Sometimes not even then. A sexy succubus is good character design. It fits. She lures men through sex to feed on them. A sexy naked stripper on her shift is good character...
