I hear this argument a lot, and from people who are not necessarily SJW shitheads either.

The bottom line is, if you're looking for diversity in film, don't bother with Hollywood. Amazingly, people make movies - sometimes in funny languages that are not English! - that are beautiful, empathetic, and, yes, diverse.
Nollywood is the best when you want to find camp films
 
I haven't read up much on Bloodborne, but if its character creator is anything like Dark Souls', it's hard to make a decent looking anything.

Though that raises the question of, "what idiot would rate an action game harshly based on its character creator?"
It's less that it's hard to make a decent looking character in a Souls game, more that there's no fucking point to it. You're running around in thick armor that covers you from head to toe. Shit, man I forgot what the hell my character looked like Dark Souls.

Wu's just an idiot.

I, for one, cannot wait for the inevitable porn parody of Wu and Gamergate as a whole.

Bonergate or something wittier.
There was supposed to be a porno spoof of Vivian James, but I think it got aborted.
 
My guess is she's bitter that Bloodborne is getting nearly perfect reviews while her game got laughed off Steam.
Something I've noticed between her and FemFreq is that they like to take potshots on more widely-known games during their release week. FemFreq whined about Dying Light back in January, which got thrown back in their face.

Wu is whining about the character customization in a game that is about as relevant as the color palette of Isaac Clarke's RIG.

I suspect in April they will complain about Mortal Kombat X's female costumes (which are actually more tastefully done than they were in MK9), in May they will complain about the Witcher being... well, a Witcher game, and in June, they will complain that Arkham Knight's is misogynistic because Poison Ivy is sexualized (which is kind of the point of the character).

If the angle of the Vic Viper's nose is wrong I couldn't possibly stop the Bacterian Empire, I read all about it on a forum sponsored by a nose-modifcation service.

"Why can't she use her powers for only wymyn and nb folks"
"Well then she poses pretty much zero threat to Batman"
"Well why not batwymyn? (not to be confused with batgirl) she's the best hero ever because she's a wymyn and never shuts up about feminism because she's a wymyn. Totes original"
 
I love that someone thinks showing their tits to putin will help further women's causes.

I was curious what she was getting at and so it appears that the character creator makes slightly manly looking women and it's hard to give them excessively feminine features.

So she's complaining that her character has to look like her and not like holiday who she wishes she was. :lol:
But wouldnt it make sense for the female characters to be a little manly? I mean shit, they have to fight against dragons and psychotic demons on a regular basis, you cant exactly look girly when doing that.

"YOU SEE TITTIES AND BUSH IN THE SEX SCENES AND THERE ARE NO STRONG WOMEN, ONLY GERALT. CIRI AND YENEFFER DON'T COUNT AND TRISS DOESN'T EITHER BECAUSE I SAY SO. BIOWARE DID ALL OF THIS BETTER WITH DRAGON AGE DESPITE THE SHITTY WRITING OF THAT SERIES"

I swear to god if one more person tells me how mature Bioware's sex scenes are, I'm going to risk laughing myself into a coma. I could probably find fucking porn Doujins about gang rape on /d/ that have a more mature look at sex and romance than fucking Bioware.

The only Bioware sex scene that was anywhere near mature was Mass Effect's (the first one) and they got bitched the fuck out for it.

There -is- I saw it posted on /v/ not more than a week ago. In a .webm thread.

That's not hard.

The fucking Rance series has better writing, worldbuilding, and gameplay than most Bioware games, and those are hardcore eroges.
 
The only Bioware games with some hints of maturity were Kotor 1-2 and maybe the first ME.
I still remember how cringeworthy Baldurs Gate 2 romance were (great game beside that):sure Viconia was a big waifu material but the writing?Jesus.....
Also,what's Wu's problem with BB(Beside envy,obviously)?Miyazaki stared into His/Her soul at night?
 
It's nice that Wu ignores the badass female characters in Bloodborne to whine about not being able to make a character that lives up to her standard of beauty. Fuck characterization, what matters is how hot you look!

Edit: also it takes like 5 minutes to make something like this. Good grief, Wu, just shut up

Too manly and you're just "man with boobs"
Too womanly and you're a "fighting fucktoy"
Empowered wymyns are hard to write.

The waifu is Aerie. Vic is the slut and Jaheira the mother. So it is just a reharsh of Three Faces of Woman stuff.

KotOR 2 wasn't Bioware, m8.

Also I imagine it's because the Souls series is more or less the anti-Rev60. Something with an aim towards hardcore players.
 
I put the thing up on my Box Account.

Enjoy, my Kiwis.
1. There have been SANIC recolors for years. Now there are HAL9000 recolors??? :cryblood:

2. "Why Bridget Sarkeesian could be the next president". Because Gamergate needs to be stopped using full thermonuclear retaliation.

3. Supersonic fighters with large holes in their wings. Mkay, I know Frank's area of expertise is making annoying spaceship sounds (which incidentally give me sensory overload) plus a bit of biochemistry, but maybe he should have checked some basic facts of aerodynamics??

4. All this stuff looks like extremely unimaginative scifi fanfiction.

5. It all makes me want to root for the Snow Leopards.
