        @Dreyfusxano @femfreq It's not a sequel. It's a rehash. And that's one of...how many? Ah yes - one.

        @Cadistra Regardless, even if that is the case, a game with a strong female lead was mentioned. I've been hesitant to even respond to her..

        @femfreq @guardian It's not like it's going to hurt the game if there are female protagonists and female players- it might make it better.

        @femfreq as a girl gamer I love at least having the option to play female, like in Mass Effect.

        @femfreq Glad to see that article pointed out "Remember Me." It's quite a good game, even if Metacritic disagrees with me.

        @femfreq @guardian yeah, because Tomb Raider, Street Fighter, SSB, Portal, Mirror's Edge didn't have female protagonists. Stop whining.

        @femfreq @guardian oh, all the Metroid games since the late 80s too. Female protagonist. Really, stop with the boring boilerplate whining.
