Tropes vs Women in Video Games - Damsel in Distress: Part 2 - General

It was really good, I have to comment on her talk about GTA3. The protagonist of GTA3 didn't shoot the girl because she talked about shopping. If I remember correctly, she betrayed the protagonist and attempted to get him on her good side again.

it's like a first world white people problem

But I heard a rumor by some that people have addressed concerns like this on her facebook but the user gets blocked and the comment removed.

[QUOTE=faggot.;40819019]no, a real problem would be how shitty USA is and how people still die there because they can't afford hospital this is some cunt wanting money and attention for a 'problem' that's blown out of proportion and is just really stupid[/QUOTE] How is the misrepresentation and stereotyping of half the planet in a media form that is constantly growing in popularity not a problem? Also, good job saying "this isn't a problem because there's bigger problems." That's rich.

Everyone who flagged the video just lost the right to complain about censorship ever again.

Kane & Lunch: Dead Men (2007) ....what

remember when video games were about video games

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;40819148]remember when video games were about video games[/QUOTE] umm no i want my social justice...

This was a big improvement over her last video, but did she really need thousands of dollars to make them in the first place? This series of videos has the same quality of her other Tropes Vs Women stuff, and 150,000 dollars seems to be a bit overkill for a project like this.

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;40819148]remember when video games were about video games[/QUOTE] I remember people wanting video games to take a more active role as a source of entertainment in general society. If you want to be recognized with respect you have to open yourself up to legitimate criticism, and weak writing is always legitimately criticized.

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;40819148]remember when video games were about video games[/QUOTE] i wish i could get tons of money for talking about really dumb shit in video games, maybe about how men ar- oh wait i'm a male i can't get attention on the internet let alone a kickstarter. i would need to be a female feminist for that

She did a much better job in this one. Didn't expect her to completely destroy Thunderfoot's double dragon thing.

[QUOTE=Jorori;40819231]I think she asked for much less on the kickstarter (~6000 dollars), but people just kept giving her more money.[/QUOTE] was 6000 even needed? the video makes it look like 0 was needed

[QUOTE=Shadaez;40819239]she didn't ask for it lets not do this please[/QUOTE] for 170k the videos should have come sooner and with higher quality than this this is fraud at best

maybe because it didn't need anything to be made funny how people agree with her about how females are portrayed in games (which is for some reason a problem now) but she's getting money and attention mainly for being female no irony here at all

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;40819269]for 170k the videos should have come sooner and with higher quality than this this is fraud at best[/QUOTE] I still don't get why asking for money to make videos and then making the videos is fraud.

[QUOTE=Tweevle;40819301]I still don't get why asking for money to make videos and then making the videos is fraud.[/QUOTE] do i even need to dignify this with a response [quote][B][I]the videos should have come sooner and with higher quality than this[/I][/B][/quote]

How about you stop shitting up the thread with irrelevant crap and actually try to counter her points? Right now the only thing I'm getting from your posts is "i'm angry about this thing i didn't contribute to please stop." This topic wouldn't be so fucking difficult if you kept your anger to yourself.

For fuck's sake it's just video games.

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;40819269]for 170k the videos should have come sooner and with higher quality than this this is fraud at best[/QUOTE] She got paid money to make a video series that she is currently producing, just really slowly. You don't know what fraud means.

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;40819269]for 170k the videos should have come sooner and with higher quality than this this is fraud at best[/QUOTE] yeah why didn't she buy a red camera to record herself talking in 4k and release a whole series of documentaries as fast as possible without taking time to do research

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;40819320]do i even need to dignify this with a response[/QUOTE] she initially asked for 6 thousand dollars and got 158 instead did you expect her to make a gold-plated amazing video beyond comprehension or something?

[QUOTE=faggot.;40819271]maybe because it didn't need anything to be made funny how people agree with her about how females are portrayed in games (which is for some reason a problem now) but she's getting money and attention mainly for being female no irony here at all[/QUOTE] I can just imagine the sweat building on the brim of your fedora as you fiercely type your blatant resentment towards women. Your reasoning flowing completely fabricated from your chubby fingers as if some sort mental disorder drives you to believe what you do.

[QUOTE=Dori;40819352]yeah why didn't she buy a red camera to record herself talking in 4k and release a whole series of documentaries as fast as possible without taking time to do research[/QUOTE] It doesn't take a year to play big name video games and point out how poorly written they are.

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;40819148]remember when video games were about video games[/QUOTE] remember when people wanted to get video games to be taken seriously as an expressive medium

[QUOTE=Dr. Gestapo;40819329]How about you stop shitting up the thread with irrelevant crap and actually try to counter her points?[/QUOTE] there are no points to counter. she's just rambling up a bunch of dumb crap, as if video games are that important and especially females in the games with stories made up by young game developers who don't know anything more cliche than boyfriend saves girlfriend i doubt hundred thousands dollars was needed for that

[QUOTE=Dori;40819352]yeah why didn't she buy a red camera to record herself talking in 4k and release a whole series of documentaries as fast as possible without taking time to do research[/QUOTE] for 170k she could have delegated the different aspects of the job to employees, which would speed up the process
