      The Hitman series is a prime example of how mechanics and story are so deeply intertwined that we can't extricate them from one another.

      It’s impossible to ignore Hitman’s theme, and we shouldn’t try. It is reflected in every aspect of the game’s marketing, story, and design.

          When I critique a game I am endlessly told that I simply don’t understand. Not giving women the benefit of the doubt is subtle harassment.

          Of course I understand the premise of Hitman, but as a feminist media critic I can both enjoy the game and point out its troubling problems.

          @femfreq well maybe this game isn't for you. You should play games that you actually like

          @kidsky25 @femfreq Hey Mike, Feminist Frequency isn't saying "Hitman is bad" they just critique the series (and the new game in particular)

          @N_Ver_Sean @femfreq critiquing the violence in a game called hitman is like critiquing a Catholic Church about talking about god too much

          @femfreq with a name like Hitman... I think that right there already makes it impossible to ignore.

          @femfreq It's so interesting to see video games being talked about like a legitimate art form these days. Back in the day people scoffed.

          @femfreq You talk about it like it's a danger to society, but all studies show that these games don't increase IRL violence.

          @ex_nihilo_2015 I think you misread the intention of criticism. Videogames are art. Ergo, examining how they reflect rl biases is worthwhile

          @RayTski The studies show they don't. You're welcome to your baseless opinions, but they should be presented as such.

          @ex_nihilo_2015 I didn't claim videogames cause violence. No one did. Art criticism is about something else.

          @ex_nihilo_2015 I consider myself a gamer, and I argued for games to be considered a form of art for years.

          @ex_nihilo_2015 Now that video games are actually discussed like art - talking about themes, analyzing and disecting it, ppl come along...

          @ex_nihilo_2015 ...and try to take that away again. Trying to return to "video games are meaningless". That's a mistake.

          @femfreq Serious query: what do you think of movies and novels with "problematic" themes?

          @femfreq Of course it is reflected. Is the story of Hitman, the design for Hitman, and the marketing for Hitman. You're stating the obvious.
