Games With Sexual Dimorphism

women are useful to clean the house

[UltraFan123]

Now I'm thinking that an RPG that has both combat mechanics and house-cleaning mechanics could benefit from stats dimorphism. kek

Like if there are already RPGs with blacksmith mechanics, shop-keeping mechanics, cooking mechanics, and other "slice-of-life" stuff like that then house-cleaning isn't that weird to add into an RPG.

You customize the man character to do the adventuring, and you also customize the wife to clean the house as a mini-game that could grant bonuses to the main adventuring stuff.

I think if you were to do the differences between men and women realistically, the women would be worse in every way and not worth playing from a player standpoint. Even giving them higher charisma is silly. Have you ever argued with a woman? They're ******** and can't be civil at all when they are upset.

[rusty_shackleford]

being a woman sounds pretty cool because you can just pick a guy that is superior to most other guys to control instead of having to rely on rng and training/studying hard

[Irenaeus]

Camp followers, healers, caretakers, con artists, live bait... that's it.

[Brugmans]

Call this chuddism but why should women get a bonus to pretty much anything of note in videogames, other than for balance.

Realistically speaking women lose on strength, endurance, dexterity, intelligence, charisma, pretty much any videogame stat. Might have a minor advantage in pain resistance. So mods like the one in OP are still just wishful simping.

I think the immunity gain and lower nutrition requirements are fair, and would have given them more resistance to the cold instead of less (I might be wrong about that though).
I disagree with the generic "social" buffs but as for the nursing bonus, tending to the young, old, or sick should be their specialty.

I see the charisma bonus representing people's willingness to tolerate behavior they'd never tolerate from a man.

They should probably only get a social bonus when interacting with men. Women tend to hate other woman actually

1,000,000% objective truth that destroys the feminist lie of "women enjoy stories where other women are the center of the universe".

Also that ******** "Betchdel Test" or whatever you call it, since any story that actually implements stuff like that is bound to make both men and women audience super bored really quick.

Not even that. This was always a falsehood. There was some research done a while back that showed this to be completely invalid. It was some kind of pain test they do with a tool that puts pressure on a certain vertebrae which safely measured pain level tolerance. Men were shown to be much more tolerant to pain.

Women literally give birth. You know, shoving a huge, hideous creature through a tiny hole?

In Dragon's Dogma, if you're playing as a female character you're more likely to get targeted and grabbed by rapist ogres. Dunno if it still works in Dragon's Dogma 2.

looks like it does, and then some.

From experience, I can safely say - No.

I and many other men routinely deal with a condition (cluster headache) which more men than women get, but women who have had it consistently say it's worse than childbirth.

A lot of jokes I could make about this

Women literally give birth.

Do you have a source for that?

[jcd]

Childbirth is painful as a punishment for falling for the deception of the snake in Eden. They deserve it.

Just need to add reproduction & milk-generating game mechanics.

Indeed, most are thinking of it the wrong way. Charisma as in Charm type charisma, weaseling their way into places / situations, getting info out of people, discounts from male shopkeepers etc. etc.
Some of the best spies were women. "Honeypotting".

In some situations they'd work with other women well (info gathering / gossip, emotional intelligence, think Deus Ex HR social augment). But in others yes they would get negative social bonus with other women, especially if attractive (but that would work inverse with the same situation but to a man).

Irrelevant.

The issue is pain tolerance between them. Men have a higher tolerance for pain, this is a fact to which your mention doesn't change.

women get pumped full of painkillers when they give birth

Only recently though.
Probably that men have a tolerance for lower level, everyday pain.

Women manage childbirth which must be painful as hell, but it's not like have to go through that everyday.
