    What ISN’T woke to conservatives/republicans anymore?

    Please don’t answer that, I know the answer, but come on. Pick up a book.

      My man Geralt looked like he was in dire need of a nap during the entire run of Witcher 3. Let him rest, people.

        The reactionary women-hating alt-right gamer-gate neo-nazi losers should just be ignored at this point.

        "at this point"

        You've paid attention to them at some point?

              hot take: i fucking hated the way ciri and every single other woman in witcher3 was written/portrayed...

              they all felt like they were written by incels who have never met or conversed with an actual real woman. they were shallow game of thrones/fantasy tropes and felt like walking talking cliches. i literally cringed through every interaction...

              And this also explains why they've "grown" her into a plastic, lip-plumped, reality-TV-star banshee. The character model looks awful.

                He apparently worked on Oblivion (and Skyrim), so there's a chance. He took a chance on Starfield and failed, so hopefully he learns from that instead of doubling down.

                Yeah, but I don't have a ton of faith in him, especially given that one whiny twitter thread he made.

                  The second one might benefit from a remaster by the time 4 comes out, as some of the models are a bit too XBox360 era, with the strangely wide shoulders and oversized arm muscles of the time

                  That's fair. I was thinking more about the overall aesthetic, as it's a bit more stylised rather than leaning towards realism like in 1 and 3.

                    Tomb Raider is not a woman protagonist game though, at least in the first game they wanted to have Indiana Jones but didn't got the rights to it. So the developers replaced the assets with a female.

                    In whole series there is not much that makes her a woman, more like an American gun-maniac guy that looks like a girl.

                    The first game didn't have much in the way of story. The focus was on the puzzles and adventuring. I don't think that makes her less of a woman character. In a video game, the assets are the only difference, anyway. Not that women can't be rough and adventurous and physical and like guns.

                      The protagonist is a woman.

                        Plus also she’s awesome anyway. What the fuck is wrong with people? Oh I can’t enjoy my vibeo game with a wahmen as main character, it’ll ruin my mood!

                        That's what I don't understand, like, have people not played the Horizon games? They're awesome, they're fun as hell.
