Anita Sarkeesian’s second entry in her series Tropes vs Women in Video Games
Boogie2988 recently appeared on the H3 Podcast, and before long the conversation turned to social issues and politics. Unfortunately for Boogie, the internet took exception and he once again found out that no good can come of this.
I like how Twitter took a 13 second CUT of an answer which made him look bad yet everyone rolled with it.
Games and politics definitely don’t mix. Just make good games. Stop trying to use entertainment as a front to push political agenda.
I love how the author of the article says that Boogie shouldn't talk about politics since he runs a youtube channel about video games, whilst simultaneously commenting on Boogie's political commentary on a website about video games. Hypocrisy at its best. Also, yikes, calm down before writing a rebuttal. It was really difficult to follow what he was actually trying to say. I had to read it twice and I still don't know. Also I'll never get those minutes back in my life again.
Feminist Frequency founder Anita Sarkeesian and managing editor Carolyn Petit break down the gender dynamics in all of the games revealed at E3 2017.
Imagine not only having this much free time but actually getting idiots to *pay* you to write about crap like this.
I really hope that big nosed cunt and that butt ugly tranny fuck off from games forever
I'm not a girl gamer, and this is my story. -New article coming winter 2017.
Please be excited and don't forget to crowd fund it so I can pocket that cash right after!
"Arkane co-creative director Harvey Smith said that it was critic Anita Sarkeesian’s analysis of Dishonored, which she offered through her web series Feminist Frequency, which promoted the studio to re-evaluate how it portrayed women in the series."
This is something I will not agree with this. Anita started a gamergate in 2012 which was small, but until 2014 thing out of control fast when she completely succeeded created the conflict between both sides. I remember correctly she hate her dad because he voted who she hated the most (politics).
Now people know why Dishonored 2 have female protagonist because of Anita Influence. I will say this again, she is the false feminist who doesn't belong to feminists community. She completely ruined their image and reputation.
Anita is shadow developing alot of games, the new Uncharted and TLOU games come to mind. Something about an angry woman beating up a room full of men without getting so much as a scratch brings them joy. I would love to see their reactions if the genders were reversed.
It is my strong belief that the feminist are just as sexist as men. If they weren't, there wouldn't be a feminist movement in the first place.
While I believe feminism has it's place on earth and all, I also believe that those tropes found in video games are not as harmful as the author would like us to believe.
Of course, a damsel in distress is not the best way to portray strong independent women, but does it mean we should get rid of the cliché? I don't think so. Those characters can coexist with better representations of the modern liberated woman.
Take Jack from mass effect 2: I'm sure the author could find something to say about her being an abused woman with sexualized clothing and all, but in my opinion, Jack could be a shirtless guy with the same story background and it would make no difference about how much of a bad-ass that character is. But since Jack is a woman, then (according to the author as I see it), the character would be a sexism problem? That's a strange logic. Anyway, I guess I'll just stop here.
