Female developers were the worst thing to happen to gaming

Kazuko Shibuya created a lot of the pixel art of the original Final Fantasy games. A lot of the best WoW environments and among the best fantasy worlds I have seen - were textured and modelled and arranged by women too. The Xeno games were written by Takahashi and his wife. Miki Higashino, Yoko Shinomura, and Saki Momiyama were fantastic composers. Junko Kawano took over the Suikoden series after Muryama left and gave us 4 and the Punishment Rune plot. Natsuko Ishikawa wrote the Doma half of the Stormblood and the Shadowbringers expansion, which was the apex of FF14's story and ShB is a strong contender for being the best Final Fantasy story period. Fire Emblem 7, 8, and 9 were directed by women and those are among the most beloved FE games by grognards who dislike the series' turn after Awakening.

The severity of having women in the studio seems to be a Western problem.

Agreed, but I didn't make the meme so shutup

He had me until he said "largely removed." I want them completely removed.

Which is why I know the moment GTA 6 finally releases the butthurt will be nuclear. In fact, I remember a video of civilization 7 where all the devs were fat middle aged women. Gaming is a fundamentally male hobby and female devs are like chickens giving lessons on flying.

You know, when she first announced her thing, I was actually interested in hearing what she had to say. Not interested enough to give her any MONEY, mind you, because how would I profit from THAT, but I was interested in listening.

Then I heard nothing for some years.

Finally, I discovered she had finally done it, and demonstrated an absolutely terrible understanding of vidya games in general, when I watched a vidya of her complaining about the camera showing of Lara Croft's ***. Except that the video had been edited, and all the footage of Tomb Raider had been replaced with Batman Asylum, so now we were listening to her complaining about Batman's *** instead, because that's how a third-person shootery game works.

But chickens actually CAN fly. Just not particularly well. It's more like snakes giving lessons on running.

Also too many soy infused white men are in the industry. And game dev doesnt pay well that anyone with competence rather does better paid IT jobs.

That's some pomo drivel, trying to articulate the ideas of relativism. "There's no good and bad, it's just a matter of perspective bro" type ideas, in this case implying that there never was good or bad media, it just depends on a very individual factor of being a certain age. Get this relativistic **** out of here.

It usually is before government/regulation/censorship and corporatism gets involved. Only thing what got better in the last 10-15 years is graphics ( even that is debatable with the resources and bad programming they do nowadays) and hardware. No couch coop games anymore since everyone has to own his own console and play via internet and pay a monthly subscription. And thats just one tiny example.

[orinEsque]

Ai has monopoly over your graphics and hardware. Gaming will regress soon in that aspect too.

Probably for the best. Just a question if they then make better games or just increase their budget for overhyped trailers which dont resemble the final product at all.

Exactly, my grandfather never tried to tell me that radio dramas were better than color movies. Nor did my other grandfather ever try to explain that horses pulling a stone sled was better than an air conditioned tractor.

I lot of users will openly and agree with this and yet

Mine watched 100 year old cowboy movies every night

My grandparents and father very specifically liked the music and movies that existed when they were young and did not care too much for the modernity I enjoyed. We are all creatures of our environment.

Most music from 60s-90s was also better, movies from 80s-90s also are better when it comes characters and writing, they couldnt rely only cgi spectacle. I enjoyed and still do enjoy listening to music from before I was even born. Its just a matter if you get to experience the older stuff also during your youth or if you only watch modern pop/hiphop trash. Has it benefits if you can cherry pick the best songs from decades or if you watch every new modern day slop.

That's because things only ever get worse, as net entropy must always increase. Therefore, the "best" era is the earliest era in which you were forming and processing things. From that point on, everything is downhill as things can only get worse.

Maybe the problem isn't women per we, but feminist brainwashed ***** taught to act like men and destroy male spaces. If a woman is normal and feminine the result wouldn't be the same

Imagine a future world so awful that Gen Z is going to be reminiscent of an era where being lectured by ****** **** and their niggercattle about how you should ************* for being white will be a better time.

In any job where a woman is introduced, the men working there will alter their words and actions to try and have sex with her, no matter how small the chances actually are.

So it doesn't really matter what the woman says or does.

Only if they are pretty. I have worked in an office with women 20-40years older than me, I wasnt interested in one there either ugly or fat or old or at least 2 of these.

Once again: hogwash.
How come some people like music that was made decades if not centuries before they were born? What about liking *some* of the modern music? I repeat myself once again - this is postmodernist ******** that is ultimately aimed at eroding any arguments against "the current thing", because "that's just your opinion bro" and "you just heard/saw it in your teens".

In addition, what you just said is an anecdotal evidence fallacy. The fact (or a hypothetical) that a few people did in fact prefer the music they have heard at a certain age does not mean that it's a universal rule. By the same measure I can say "Rusty is a fed because all forum admins are feds" and conjure up an anecdotal example of it being so.

You would **** a man pretending to be a woman if he looked feminine enough, your opinion doesn't mean ****.
