@ZoeQuinnzel What did you make of Epic Games' comments that female protagonists are hard to justify financially?
Bringing a ton of women into this industry isn't enough to fix the gender dynamic in games. We need men to step up too.

@nathandonarum they can kiss the fattest part of my ass -
@ZoeQuinnzel Yeah. Some guy kept Tweeting at me defending them. It made me sick. -
@nathandonarum it broke my heart to read that the Shadow of the Colossus guys had similar reasons with an added "women aren't adventurers" -
@ZoeQuinnzel Are you fucking joking? I don't get it. Companies like theirs could easily sell a profitable game with a female protagonist. -
@nathandonarum not if we keep refusing to because girls have cooties

@ZoeQuinnzel There's a huge difference between just having women in the industry and having women in creative & content roles. -
@EdibleToaster Which is not to devalue the women working hard and kicking ass in PR, Marketing and all of the other important roles they do -
@ZoeQuinnzel Oh yes, very true. They all do fantastic work. We just need to see more of a nice spread throughout the entire process. -
@EdibleToaster yeah definitely

@ZoeQuinnzel@SuperRetroid you need skills. Doesn’t matter what gender they come from. Just employ the right people and ignore gender! -
@daverage@ZoeQuinnzel If only employers did, and the whole thing wasn't skewed by presumption :( -
@SuperRetroid@ZoeQuinnzel i just hate the knee jerk equality. Real skills in the right jobs :) -
@daverage@superretroid the day I don't get asked if I do anything to invite sexual harassment in a job interview is the day we can worry
