So, all the hemming and hawing for the last decade over sexy female characters is all for nothing?
>>
>>693852245
Could have told you that years ago. Go look at a woman playing an mmo and they sluzz their character up every time

>suddenly girls cosplay genshin characters and other whores instead of muttoid goblinas like in dragon age

Even if some people are jealous of female characters, the issue should lie with them. Envy and jealousy were always seen as negative traits, but we live in bizarro world now, so.

Key word being "women"

Normal women who are into video games proper and do things like cosplay love slutty characters

Fat hambeasts who aren't gamers and think the video game industry is an extension of the patriarchy and feminists don't like slutty characters

Anyone that has ever interacted with a normal woman could tell you that.
Even women that aren't into vidya love fashion and seeing women wearing fashionable and sexy outfits.
The ones eternally seething at attractive female characters in fiction are terminally online landwhales and/or trannies.
Tangential to this topic, I've met both mtf and ftm trans people, both online and irl, and I genuinely wonder why are mtf troons consistently insufferable and pedantic snakes, while ftm trans are most of the time pretty laid back and chill?

After reading about how they conducted this study I feel like its not really a viable way to draw the conclusions they did. There are just to many other factors at play around what creates enjoyment when playing a game that you would need a massive sample size (especially with women) to have a real view on how this specific thing would influence that.

That being said I agree that it would be the case on principle, but I just don't think this study is good for any reliable statistics about it.

It is a very vocal minority of women and their simps who control the medium.

Most women (especially v tubers) like playing as sexy women.

But women like Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian are evil and want to ruin it for the rest of the world.

I'm willing to bet that most of them like to be attractive characters too. It's probably the most mentally fucked up one's who can't cope with how much they hate the way they look that lean into the whole representation bit, and even then I bet they still jack off to hot women all the time, same as how ugly guys lean super hard into cooming to waifus and shit, they just aren't pretending it's something it isn't or they sit in quiet denial about it

Jealous troons and seething misandrists.
The most they achieved was erasing women and setting the baseline to Man Or Androgynous, and introducing the next generation of men to the wonderful world of Paraphilia.

I've noticed this too. FTM people are way easier to deal with, work with, and even be friends with. I think many MTF are stupid enough to think "I wouldn't be having these life Issues if I was a girl" and become extremely disappointed to realize they have all the same problems pre transition as post transition, hence the projected self hatred. Don't look for any real discussion on the topic on 4chan though

>>693857297
Well there was just enough vocal support for this stuff for long enough that the industry likely just took it at face value. All kinds of modern business is still trying to figure out how to interpret and figure out how to pull actual trends from the internet, as well as how to fully utilize it for marketing (were seeing it a lot woth politics to right now). Truth is back in 2013-14 the idea of how much the internet could amplify a vocal minority was still largely unknown by most people, and it's still being figured out right now. I fully believe that the games industry fully believed there was a bigger market for the type of shit people like Anita was saying, and it's only more recently that it's becoming clearer that there is an exhaustion with it and it's not actually that important.

>>693854724
If I had to guess, I'd imagine FTM just have an easier time actually hitting some kind of success point. Men can range from beefcake adonises to effeminate twinks, to 4'11' microorganisms, so a girly-looking guy doesn't set people's radar off.
Then you have MTF where it takes incredible effort on the part of surgeons, makeup, voice training, and their own personal behavior and attitude to even remotely pass.

I mean. I do prefer to play as men in games, but the art style does dictate it for me. I know when I played WoW way back. I always made female humans because the males looked like gorilla people and I hate WoWs art style in general but the female humans, while still ugly, were less so to me.

Yes
the vidya industry is full of autistic losers who desperately want to be seen as great artists, the second some high-profile critic comes along and says "vidya will never be art because x" the entire industry starts bending over backwards to avoid x
happened in the early 2000s with "vidya will never be art because it glorifies violence," all of a sudden we get a bunch of games telling you to shoot people and then calling you a monster for shooting people
happened in the late 2000s with "vidya will never be art because it doesn't focus on story," all of a sudden we get a million """narrative experiences"""
happened in early 2010s with "vidya will never be art because muh sexualization," all of a sudden women have to cover up
now we get to put up with "vidya will never be art because muh representation," now every game needs to have gays and trannies

The industry at large doesn't truly give a fuck because you still have the movie industry following the same formula, and you also have situations like MK11 where pre-release they promote this idea that "times have changed" and "you wouldn't show up to battle in a bikini" only for them to eventually flip and sell the same "inappropriate" costumes to you as DLC once most normalfags have moved on.

Autistic people get taken advantage of all the time because they either completely lack common sense, or it's lacking to at least a moderate degree. I see jackasses do it all the time to them in the workplace, or customers do it to autistic employees.
I just don't see how it's so unfathomable that people would take advantage of that to make them troon out too, like, that's why they target kids. They're both groups that lack common sense.

Woke is project about forcing behavior, including female behavior. It's not about what they like or not but what they should.

Because a majority of 4chan users are high functioning autists, and they overwhelmingly hate trannies. It's a psyop because you believe that if you seed an idea in someone's mind and keep pressing it, you can brainwash anons into doing what you want. What you don't realize is that you are dumber and possess less willpower than a 4chan autist, and that's why you're the tranny on discord, and I'm the autist on 4chan calling you a kike-owned eunuch.

Here are the most active threads according to 4chanX.

I don't have a screencap of the usual top threads to compare, unfortunately. But take my word for it. This is practically unheard of.
There isn't a single thread mocking or baiting /v/.
There isn't a single Twitter screencap (aside from the industry related console war thread).
The Russian bait thread is filled with actual video game discussion and light hearted ribbing.
There isn't a single crossposted Reddit thread.
The threads about the cultural issues affecting video games are being kept to a respectful amount, like this thread, and reasoned and well-informed discourse is taking place.

This is what /v/ used to be like.

>Strength cues were also manipulated, where high-strength characters were larger, more muscular, and carried bigger weapons. In contrast, low-strength characters had smaller physiques and less imposing weaponry.

This is an overlooked flaw in their research. I'm assuming some of the participants were familiar with Soulcalibur, and are deciding "Would I want to play as this character?" on the meta of a CaC with Nightmare's zweihander or Astaroth's giant axe being better than Taki's daggers or Amy's rapier, not because they look stronger.

Test actually makes you more mellow until something triggers it to go off then it basically gives you super adhd tard energy aka roid rage.
But for 99% of the time you are far, far more mellow for it while it’s latent.
Most men learn to self-control the energy burst by the time they’re adults, but a roid rat who’s overdosing can easily launch himself into orbit.

Also adhd isn’t real. It’s mostly often a misdiagnosis of high test boys. Ban SSRIs

bait thread but I'll bite.

If any of you have talked to both ugly(inside or outside) and beautful (inside or outside) women you will notice that its only ugly women (and trannies) who complain about beauty. Its just envy.

I have never ever heard a good looking/nice woman complain about either "privilige" or "the male gaze"

That shit is 100% the women equivalent of being an ugly incel who hates women. Just because its women they get a plattform to spread their bullshit. Simps and people who just want to be left alone let them get through with this to the point we are at now, where you can't ignore it anymore and people write articles about people who state the obvious.

They also most likely don't buy/play games in any way that matters. Like who wants the character they play to look like shit? It's a fucking retarded mindset to have. These people can already be shit 24/7, they don't a video game for that.

Women are quite literally MADE for sex.

The problem is ugly people.
The only women who complain about not being represented are ugly, that's precisely why they're not given favorable representation, we've already seen what comes from that.

The girls from Overwatch are probably the closest things we have to digital pornstars because none of them are ugly, Widowmaker is one of the most popular ones because she's a flexible French femme fatale in a skintight spandex suit seductively sticking her ass out whenever she's in sniping position.
On the other side of the spectrum you have Mei, Mei is chubby, but the thing is that she's just chubby, she's not full on fat, she has love handles, but she's not so fat that she has to fucking waddle to move, she'd need to put on a quarter of an actual fucking TON to get her own episode on My 600 lb. Life, she is also not ugly, the woman has an adorable face.

Fuck ugly 'people', figuratively, we don't need anymore of them to look at or hear out.
Fuck identity politics too, that's what gave them any semblance of power to begin with.

doubt. Males are only in love with beauty, if there's a ultra sexy chick working at mcdonalds you wouldn't give a fuck about it and just try to bang her.

This was always fucking obvious. When you see cosplayers they’re always cosplaying the sexier characters that show a lot of skin whether it’s from a videogame or anime. Darkstalkers’ entire legacy now is attractive females cosplaying characters from it. Whoever made up the “women feel offended by attractive female characters” pulled it straight out of their ass

All in the name of antagonizing what normal people like.
Want t take a guess about why Classic Lara had 40% female playerbase (back when games gave girls the ick) and the new shit is only popular with... certain human samples?

"Beautiful women = bad" because
>if every normie woman try to obtain beauty, OF models will lose their appeal and they'll get less $ when you can just go out and find a beautiful woman yourself
Beautiful videogame women are hurting the "sex influencer women" industry which are real women

Not really, like some others said, woman absolutely love making their characters as hot as possible. Most women I know play as blood elf in WoW. There are two groups that hate hot women in entertainment. The first hates men and doesn't play video games, the second will never be a real woman.

You forgot the third group who wears silly little hats and live in underground rape tunnels.
