Big female's paid minions are out in droves in this thread.
The big ones have menions?
That's awful news. I like the big ones lol
Just more male oppression from Big Woman and I'm here for it.
Reminds me of all the DBD players who I keep finding on Youtube who complain anytime someone wears an optional pride charm. "Bro this many gay people isn't realistic! It ruins my immersion!"
and I'm like "They're wearing those charm because they're gay in real life. It's not realistic for gay people to exist?!"
I've quickly learned "Ally to the community" in Gaming Circles is a dogwhistle for "I hate gay people"
I need to play as a male
Imagine she's hangin massive dong then? Idk what to tell you.
You played as her in 3
I dunno, man.
Playing as a guy forces you to constantly stare at a dude the entire time. That's seems pretty gay. 💅
CDPR: we added a beard option for the insecure whiners, but it unlocks dwarves hitting on you.
That's exactly what I'm into tho.
I really wish the people who say shit like this would realize how pathetic it makes them sound. I have never once felt my masculinity was being threatened because the player character in video game was female.
Not interested in...
Metroid.
Perfect Dark.
Mirror's Edge.
Parasite Eve.
Portal.
Half of Resident Evil.
All of these pivotal, classic games have great female protagonists, and came out before Obama got elected... probably before this person was even born?
Maybe somebody could try the 'return to tradition' approach with this fool.
I bet these dudes have no problem playing Tomb Raider.
And they were real pissed at the end of Metroid.
I'm not interested in playing as a vampire. I am a human. Breaks my immersion. I think there should be two options. One for vampyr and one for human.
Seriously though, this pathetic misogynist is a joyless snowflake.
TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY MOTHERFUCKER!
As a cis-femme gamer I am SO SICK of playing as grizzled, middle-aged cis-men in every goddamn game with a set story.
Games where you can pick the gender of the protagonist don't count. Whether you play as Man-Shep or Fem-Shep, Mass Effect is exactly the same and the gender choice is exclusively cosmetic. There are very few games with female protagonists that actually commit to the protagonist being a woman and delving into what that entails.
Just in this first trailer, Ciri is trying to save a young woman from being used as a maiden sacrifice and that is a much more emotionally complex situation for her as a young woman herself. I will be pre-ordering Witcher 4 the second it is available because I want more studios to make games with women as the main playable characters so that I can have immersion in my games too.
I usually feel so immersed when playing white haired super-ripped giants with magic powers. It's as if they were a second me, except for the hair, size, muscles, facial traits, strength and magic powers.
I remember when this totally broke my immersion back in the 1990s...
Didn't they understand that I wanted to raid tombs as a MALE?!
When given the choice, I always play as a female character. I'm already a man 24/7, why continue that in games I play to escape reality?
I am man. I once played Tomb Raider and now my tits are huge!
and now my tits are triangular
Have these people even played Witcher 3? Because there you play as Ciri too sometimes. Her moveset was really fucking cool actually
Also this is one of the games where you play a character that has personality already, self insertion isn't intended.
Geralt of Rivia, Lara Croft, B.J. Blazkowicz, Faith Connors, Alan Wake, Max Caulfield, Joel Miller, Ellie Williams, and probably Doomguy those are all roles that you play.
In contrast you have games like Skyrim, Elden Ring, Terraria, Cyberpunk 2077, Far Cry, Valheim and most classic MMORPGs, where you have a playable character that you can form to your own design.
That's just fundamentally a difference in design. Complaning that you can't self insert in a game of the first category doesn't make sense.
It's gay to play male characters bc you're staring at a dude all day. True hetero males play female characters because it is most hetero to look at attractive women.
The fact that Geralt has a penis is not enough to make me forget that he is not me. Throughout the series, you're constantly learning stuff about a character that isn't you, that you aren't writing. I doubt they have examined their feelings.
"I'm not a marble so I can't enjoy Marble Madness."
Now I really want to play Marble Madness. But it's not the same without the giant trackball. ☹️
Fucking outrage tourists, man, this one is barely even trying
