"Design choices" can reinforce racism, sexism, transphobia, etc. The fact they're "design choices" doesn't make it ok. Make better choices!https://twitter.com/leero_62/status/842176111886913536 …

Even if there was sexism, normal human beings can differentiate between reality and gaming.

Sorry but games, like films and television, do influence cultural attitudes about gender, race, sexuality, violence, politics etc.

Thats like believing Tim Allen is really Santa Claus. If you choose to believe fiction, you are simply wrong.

I corrected my comment. Believing something like sexism in BOTW is like believing in The Santa Claus movie!

Recognizing this tendency makes us less susceptible to it. Pretending it doesn't exist makes us more susceptible to it

You didn't answer. Is it sexist if it were reversed?

No, because it doesn't reinforce any longstanding sexist attitudes or patterns. Watch FF's series on the damsel trope.

It Mario being captured by Bowser, is different because...he's a dude? Wouldn't that set a new sexist attitude?

No. If BOTW were the only game to use a damsel plot device it wouldn't either. But it's a pattern of HUNDREDS of games
