Re: Tropes in Videogames
Plus, let's imagine your imaginary "well designed and fun game with ugly female character". Demo is made, now we are shopping for a publisher. Do you honestly think that any of them would provide funding without asking she be hotted up? Or funded at all? Point taken, but it gets incredibly frustrating when you try to make… -
Re: Tropes in Videogames
I haven't seen it, but she compliments the series "Veronica Mars" as portraying women as real people, and it seemed to have a good run with lots of fans and advertisers. Are you implying that a game couldn't be fun with numerous well rounded female characters? -

I'm not meaning to offend at all, I'm just saying demographics can be a big point of developing a "good game."

She gets to decide her host is worth 90k of salary a year if she so chooses. TV hosts make 10 times that. When you fund a project, you're also funding the project's employees, even if they're self-employed. If you dont like that, dont fund her -- I didn't. This is part of the fundamental nature of kickstarters: When a… -

Re: Tropes in Videogames
Already posted the video. Double Dragon Neon looks fun. Is it available for pc? I think I played the arcade one back in the day. Final Fight I played a lot though and it had the same plot. -
Re: Tropes in Videogames
Tropes vs. women in video games? More like point out how lazy video game stories are because no one really cares unless the story is really good. I have played Darkness II, and I don't even remember that scene. The game was fun as hell though.
