if i was experimented on and turned into some billy-goated up creature bent on killing my loved ones, why wouldnt i want to be put out of my misery? what else is there to do at that point? is there some magic unmutator potion around? why wouldnt i be grateful to them for stopping me? i dont get this stupid shit as she says in the video some of these things might make sense in the universe of the game itself but nevertheless there are a bunch of writers who construct a plot around a woman begging to be violated

even if it makes sense it's all about that all these games actively work towards constructing a situation where a woman is begging to be victimised. you have to see it in the greater context

CHIPS WHAT YOU'RE NOT GETTING IS THAT EVEN THOUGH THE DARKNESS SPENDS UPWARDS OF AN HOUR EXPLAINING HOW SHITTY YOUR LIFE IS AND THAT JENNY IS THE ONLY THING IN YOUR LIFE THAT DOESN'T SUCK, HER BEING "TAKEN AWAY" FROM YOU MEANS SHE IS TREATED AS AN OBJECT

my point is that the way she's presenting these videos is awful, she's throwing out examples that don't even work, she's talking about how "look how bad it's gotten in recent years!" and then showing a majority of footage from 10 year old games, and using grabbed by the ghoulies as an example...seriously? that's like saying tom and jerry is pro animal abuse
like most people, i don't deny there's sexism in the games industry, Dead or Alive pretty much proves that all by itself, but a lot of it's due to laziness and wanting to market to a target demographic that consists of 15 year olds, "welp, better throw some boobs in!" and it seems like her main argument against that is "well they should stop doing it because it perpetuates the idea that it's ok to punch women!" which is a billy-goating ridiculous leap to make

All in all I think she's giving too many examples without actually proving too much

vidy gams are inherently sexist like any form of media (but granted vido gamames are more pervasive) becus we LIVE IN A SEXIST SOCIETY so theres no way to segregate what is objectively deemable of sexism which is what is frustrating about this topic because WHILE I UNDERSTAND WE NEED DISCUSSIONS, this sort of discussion is incredibly subjective and susceptible to anectodal evidence
~*~*ANY~*~* portrayal of women can be construed as being negative or in poor taste; same with any dispriveliged minority in any form of media BUT WHAT SHITS ME is that anita's opinion is elevated to a level of superiority not out of any deservingly-earned merit, but because of the some sort of martyr complex (probably not by any fault of her own, but it has definitely been perpetuated by social media and gaming websites)
and now its almost impossible to refute any of her opinions or criticisms without being associated with the cunts who hurled death threats at her
her success has been catapaulted by nothing other than the sheer superficiality of journalists and developers thinking that they're being progressive by listening to her claims, but ultimately their blind faith is more harmful than productive
