    The slew of perfect scores BOTW received from critics shows that most still don't give a damn about how women are represented in games.

        Through the memories players can collect, BOTW acknowledges the ongoing problem of Zelda being damseled but doesn't do anything about it.

        Critics might call out sexism in games with bad gameplay but often act as if it’s not worth mentioning when the gameplay is great. It is.

        There is so much to admire in BOTW. Its gameplay is incredible. But that absolutely doesn’t excuse its use of tired, sexist plot devices.

        The last thing feminism or the game medium need is ignorance and splitting hairs for things that aren't there.
