I'm looking for more games in the "hot girl does cool stuff" genre.Games I have played>Bloodrayne>Oni>Nightshade>Death by Degrees>Red Ninja>Fear Effect 1 and 2>No One Lives Forever>FFX-2>PN03>Beyond Good & Evil>most of the good Tomb RaidersDo you have any other recommendations in this genre?
I miss the "hot girl does cool stuff" genre.These days female protagonists are all about racial empowerment and being "better than men." Like, there was nothing wrong about women being stereotyped into assassins, snipers, or magic users. They were cool like that.
>>12052687DOA2streets of rage 2 if you play as blazeparasite eve 1 + 2 (although she doesn't dress like a retarded hooker so this might not be to your taste)
>>12052687You mean femm fatale?
>>12052687vtmb if you pick the female characters
>>12052705A lot of hot girls in video games back then were cunty and acted like they were better than men. People just didn't complain so much and get exposed to ragebait psyops, so no one cared like they do today.
>>12052687Metroid series(((Not retro))) Mirrors edgeKiller instinct as orchidJill of the jungleSmb2 as peach
>>12052687Dino Crisis 1 & 2 and Perfect Dark come to mind right now.And if you don't mind going beyond retro, Bayonetta and Bullet Witch.
>>12052728>although she doesn't dress like a retarded hooker so this might not be to your tasteWhat a strange thing to bring up. (you) feeling alright, buddy?
>>12052780Prove it.
>>12052780I don't remember that happening in video games. Maybe in some western movies in the late 00s, but as far as I can recall, "girl power" in games didn't come coupled with misandry until the 2010s.
>>12053709>And if you don't mind going beyond retro, Bayonetta and Bullet Witch.And NieR Automata and Lollipop Chainsaw.
>>12053709Oh and just remembered another. Tenchu: Fatal Shadows.
>>12053709Also Resident Evil 1 to 3, 0 and Code Veronica.
>>12053793>but as far as I can recall, "girl power" in games didn't come coupled with misandry until the 2010sBesides, this almost only happens in modern western games. Asian made games still have hot heroines that don't diss half of the human population.
>>12053813And they still exist in western games too. Fortunately the misandry shit is only pushed by a small number of publishers and some irrelevant indie dev teams.
>>12053817I.e. If you don't play modern western AAA slop you'll barely see it.Don't let a bunch of activists sour the hobby for you.
>>12053709Oh and one more. Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex for the PS2.
>>12052780It's still true that no one cares. The entities that constantly whine about this are nobodies.
>>12052687Parasite Eve 1 and 2 are classic ones. Also Rumble Roses and Primal are good examples of what you're looking for.>>12052705Same. Frankly, I felt that media made women aspire to not only be pretty but also to be pretty amicable, fun and cool at the same time. Not every chick of course, but such women weren't in short supply as compared to now.>>12052780Not really. A lot of that stuff was just as much about women being cool and fun while not being vindictive cunts that try to rival men in all ways. It was a celebration of womenhood by making women do cool shit while expressing their femininity in cool ways. You see that in all the female-fronted alternative bands like Hole, Veurca Salt, The Breeders, Belly and all the major solo female acts like Liz Phair and Fiona Apple.It was reflected in the vidya of the time where the female protagonists were cool, competent, had personality (often a fun one where they crack wise at the situations they're in) all the while being very beautiful babes. It's part of why they became such massive cultural icons.>>12053709>>12053802and Drakengard 3 (if you have a supercomputer to run RPCS3 because good luck with the massive framedrops in the native PS3 version) and Stellar Blade
>>12053817Sometimes I wonder what the point of it is. Like you're shitting on your most passionate customers and at the same time not even making real headway in gaining new customers doing this shit. It's basically a lose-lose scenario all the way down.
>>12052687Bayonetta
>>12052687Soul Calibur single player campaign mode as any of the several very hot girls in that game. I suggest Taki.
>>12053818Lies. Indie games, especially pixel style are full of it, the ultimate cesspool of crap.
>>12055491>Sometimes I wonder what the point of it isI'll TRY to be as little political as possible. Here's an explanation:1) The game publishers' owners (shareholders) only really care about making money. They don't care if it comes from their games' sales or from the following.2) Activist investors and political pressure to make things more "inclusive" exist, some of them quite wealthy (one of them being the american government, which directly finances them by for example some USAID programs. And western european governments in general also do it with their publishers and some indie developers), which partially FUND media entertainment products such as video games, and specially TV shows and blockbuster movies.3) IIRC in the early 2010s a study came out stating that about HALF of video game players in the west are women... only problem is, the study counted CELLPHONE and WEB BROWSER titles as in the same category as "core" console and PC games. This ignited some publishers' greed and ambition to make their AAA core titles, which have NOTHING to do either mechanically or aesthetically with the games most women play, for a "unisex" audience. And the problem got worse because they consulted 4) Sex negative feminists. Who saw this study as an opportunity to GRIFT and infiltrate the industry, whose doors had already been opened to them by the diversity quotas implemented by Obama in the Tech sector (which while well intentioned unfortunately didn't promote good female employees and instead filled western companies with feminist activists, many also misandrists).5) The fact most western publishers are publicly traded (they have shares that are bought and sold consttantly) means a big portion of their owners DON'T CARE about their longterm success as companies, because they speculate with making a hit and selling their shares and buy something else in the medium term.Tl;dr: It's a shitshow. But it'll eventually pass (or Asia will eat their lunch).
>>12055873P.S. Also, ALWAYS vote with your wallet and EXPRESS your discontent with game changes in the places where it matters (i.e. mainstream social media. Publishers don't really give a fuck about 4chan, but will piss their pants if their latest shitty game is getting blasted on X and Tiktok).It doesn't matter if 4 million lemmings still buy the misandrist games, 1) at least you'll keep your money 2) Lost sales still hurts the publishers, and big time, because activist money won't last forever and they KNOW IT.Anyway, don't concern yourself too much with this. Life is short like to become embittered by shit like this.
>>12055841There's thousands of indie games coming out every single year. Ignore the shitty and support the good ones.
>>12055841>>12055893P.S. I'll even recommend you three.Deltarune, which is also relevant to this thread since it features hot/attractive girls that can kick ass (like pic related, best girl Susie). Also don't be misguided by its some of its diverse/woke content: this game is NOT against straight men. It genuinely can be enjoyed by EVERYONE. Great music also.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS0g-4g-yTwNitro Express, also relevant to this thread. Its cute female protagonist is a one-girl-army (proven you can play competently).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gRRS2CsrR0Steel Assault. This one starred by a man.It was designed to be played on the maximum difficulty, and it's cool and fun as fuck if you can step up to the challenge. Its OST is magic.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeVpQ-MHkiY(Don't mind the shitty scanlines filter, you can disable it)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UH9y1L7N0pMYou can find them on PC, Switch and more.Anyway, sorry for the offtopic parts. I sincerely hope what I posted has been helpful or at least entertaining to some of you. Why? Because I care about video games and I like to share my passion for them.
>>12055873P.S. 2 And for the record, I don't even hate sex-negative feminists. I PITY THEM (as they most likely had horrible experiences with individual bad men, which unfortunately made them hate all men). But that doesn't mean I'm condoning their bullshit or that I won't boycott the games they ruin.
>>12052687KoudelkaWet
>>12053709Also most fighting games, specially Street Fighter, KOF and DOA (Tekken and Virtua Fighter too to a lesser extent, and classic Mortal Kombat before they put the female characters in burkas).
>>12055873>>12055887>>12056006I'm not mad at all. I just hate how things have gotten so bad so quickly in the Western entertainment sector (and the West in general but let's focus on vidya here) in regards to the simple concept of "the customer is always right". Unless the customer is asking for some shit that's truly infeasible, degenerate or morally reprehensible, you should try to appease the customer so that they will become a regular and you can form a mutually beneficial business relationship. There's no way that Western devs won't get eclipsed by their Eastern counterparts, who cater to their fans because they understand the concept. It may not completely disappear, but the Western gaming industry will contract greatly in the next decade if they don't realize that shareholder's money won't sustain their business in the long term.
>>12058275>I just hate how things have gotten so bad so quickly in the Western entertainment sector (and the West in general but let's focus on vidya here) in regards to the simple concept of "the customer is always right"I think it'll get better soon. It HAS TO, otherwise once the activist money runs out (as it will, given western countries have infinitely more important matters to attend than entertainment media) there'll be another crash and many publishers will either go broke or they'll get bought by (probably eastern) investors and made to pivot towards being profitable again.We alse need to keep in mind that because AAA games take generally about 5 years (or sometimes even more) to be produced, MANY of the ones being released this year and the next one were conceived and designed years ago, BEFORE the normies grew their balls and started expressing their discontent with the current situation en masse. I'm optimistic about the games being developed since the latter began.And finally, if GTA 6 being sexy as fuck and selling over 40 million units doesn't wake publishers up they'll deserve to fail.
>>12058545P.S. Correction: If Marvel Rivals wasn't already enough, they deserve to go under.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V23J-PF98o
