      Ciri & the sorceresses in Witcher 3 wear high heels but historically they were men’s fashion. If anything Geralt should be the one in heels.

      Game designers put their action heroines in high heels specifically to make them more sexualized in combat. It’s tiresome and ridiculous.

          There is a time and place for high heels but running, jumping and battlefield scenarios are not it. That’s just pandering to male fantasies.

          High heels are immobilizing. They can also cause serious nerve and joint damage. Why do game designers want that for their female heroes? :P

          @raygootz she brings it up is to show that there's no other reason to put it in. People often defend dumb stuff by saying its realistic

          @raygootz the point isn't "oh games should realistic". See if you can think about it and figure out what the point is

          @jezzamonn it's not like this is Lara croft in heels. If you accept they have magic accept the heels. Shed reaching to criticize.

          @femfreq my question is why is it objectifying? What if I think it's badass to kick ass & look sexy? Why is being sexy demeaning?

          @_DHMapplethorpe @femfreq I'm loathe to do this & point this out. Because it's such a trope on her part. She's complaining about fashion.
