        Quantity does not matter. Quality does. If you only care they look like you, you ignore others who don't. That's the roots of bigotry.

        There have MILLIONS OF games that satirize or display oppression and you just called them sexist, because you didn't even play them!

        Did you ever notice that players are all dif races and sexes. You seriously need to quit with the propaganda from your flawed ideology.

        Not all video games are about telling stories, or challenging oppression, some are just about game play. If don't like, that don't play it.

        Isn't that a little backwards? Why should we care about what a hero looks like? Shouldn't we simply admire their heroism?

        i totally agree, but the problem here is the vast majority of game writers just aren't good enough to properly tackle this subject matter.

        I don't identify with a character because the character is like me. In fact that makes me dislike them. I like a well developed character.

        yes as do most people. i feel like a lot of people conflate not connecting with a bad character as them just not being like them
