Okay for one dinosaurs couldn't murder robots because their natural advantages over other species wouldn't apply. Namely robots shouldn't die to being bitten if their metal is anything worthy of note.

I'll give you all a hint:

Any article that cites Men's Rights blogs, uses the word "slut" completely unironically, or uses "alpha" and "beta" probably has an ulterior motive, and that motive is "Women are inferior".

Yeah, that includes that horrible scrall that ExTha posted.

I didn't get that vibe from the article at all. I don't agree with everything I have read but it just seems like social commentary to me. The author discussed some fair points about laws, made a couple of silly points to me, but the general tone even in the things I disagreed with came off as intelligent and reasoned.

You haven't lived up to the same standard, I am afraid. I think you are the one who wants Lara Croft in that trailer to be the victim of something, because from a story telling point of view it was a very powerful scene.

I have seen her be directly referred to as purely a sex object quite a few times

And I have never seen this. Chun-Li has more clothes on than most men in games.

The point I'm making isn't about emphasizing female beauty, it's that people will assume that an attractive female character must be solely there to look pretty regardless of whether or not she's also a realistic character whose attractiveness isn't a primary aspect of her role in the story at all.

Because it is often the case, while it is very rarely the case for male characters.


Honestly I have no idea how you've never seen it to be fair

panzer dragoon saga's gameplay was real time battles revolving around you with a laser gun and a dragon who shoots lasers out of its mouth, along with other special moves that were really 'magic lasers.'

answer, no. never tired of it. in fact, you could customize your dragon to make its laser shooting more badass. as for your gun? didn't matter, dragon did it better. always.


Dragons SHOULD do it better.

Uh, probably no one. Chun-Li is the poster girl for not being a poster girl in fighting games.

You can't seriously look at something like, say, every fighting game ever created and tell me that gaming doesn't have serious issues to work out in regards to women.
Fighting games really prove that the issue is not something video games can effectively tackle though. Compare two characters: Chun-li and Zangief. Chun is fairly modestly dressed (sure it's fairly tight, but I just went for a walk around the neighborhood and saw probably at least five women wearing something I'd call less modest), Zangief barely wears anything. Chun doesn't act in a particularly sexualized way, nor is she just some random love interest. Zangief is an irrelevant character (plot wise) with little personality who is constantly posing and showing off his muscles. Chun isn't the most realistically proportioned character ever, but she's closer to realistic than most people in the series as of Street Fighter IV and its fetish for impossible muscles, whereas Zangief is one of the less realistic looking people in the cast.

How many people will say anything about Zangief being there to try to appeal to women (not even whether he does or not, just whether the thought would even cross anyone's mind)? Next to no one. How many people will say Chun is there solely for sex appeal? A fair number. The point is, people have been conditioned to think any moderately attractive female character in fiction *must* be there solely for the sake of looking pretty, while it's hard to make a male character that would even raise eyebrows. This isn't really something video games can address, it's a larger societal issue, namely that there's some messed up assumptions about attractive female characters in general.


She's a girl OH NOES.



Also is there really any limit to number of ways the dragon can shoot the laser before it gets stale

there's nothing unrealistic about it.
dragon commander is, quite literally, the story about a man who can turn into a dragon with a jetpack, shoot nukes, and has dragon breath that melts half the enemy, ZOE2 style. he also gets to marry and cheat on an elf princess, a dwarf princess, and a skeleton princess whose kingdom considers her untouchable (but she likes to put on fake skin and breasts to look hot).


this is 100% realistic portrayal of a man who can turn into a dragon with a jetpack that shoots lasers. i mean, he's not exactly needing to settle for anything less.


Any less would be uncivilized

Celes is good. Terra, less so.

Aside from a single(avoidable) moment in the game, Celes is pretty much a universally strong character


Terra needs to be babied for half the game by other characters. She's developed as rather "dependent".
