@femfreq @carolynmichelle @ReadMatter wow, all these moments are so small, but tremendously affecting. Why is this so hard for games to do?

@RemingtonWild@carolynmichelle@femfreq@ReadMatter Generally because of the tired ideal of: 'Man have gun, man go boom boom, Man God!' -
@ReinaHW@carolynmichelle@femfreq@ReadMatter or chainsaw gun... -
@RemingtonWild@carolynmichelle@femfreq@ReadMatter Or sword or whatever, basically it all comes down to making men feel powerful

@firrabbit@AnaBlackFyre why not? We have "manly" moments and "badass" ones, what about ones that challenge our perception of gender roles?

@femfreq@carolynmichelle@ReadMatter Surely Metroid is better than all of those. -
@timmyshire It's just 'five', not top five. Does Samus interact with other humans? Is Samus more interesting than the Scythian? -
@magniventris I think so, yeah, because it's only under particular circumstances you discover she's a woman. It doesn't make a point of it. -
@timmyshire So why is Metroid (the game or series) a better game or a better feminist moment in gaming than all of those other 5 examples? -
@magniventris Um. I just explained? Though I suppose that would be a better equality moment rather than a feminist moment. -
@timmyshire Ok, if I understand correctly, you prefer things to be egalitarian, or to represent equality, without the concept of feminism? -
@timmyshire I'm a 30-something professional fossil of an extinct dinosaur in the US, but personally, I need feminism, not just equality. -
@timmyshire Although discussing that gets into semantics immediately.
