        Primrose willingly puts herself in that situation, she is undercover She's in control of her situation There's nothing wrong with telling a story with people in hardship It makes the journey that much better They arent glamorizing treating women badly or making them look weak

        As far as I can tell, video games regularly get a pass. Final Fantasy XV had a ridiculously sexualized Cindy. And Pronto peeping Tom photographs her without her consent. 😡

        If you bothered to read the interview the developers they mention stating In Japan this isn't considered sexualization . So the dev team was surprised to hear NA audiences speak out against it so much. Different countries Have different cultures And different definitions

        That’s true. Which means there, it’s considered okay. Here, not so much. It’s called a conversation. It happens when cultures interact.

        I agree it's good to talk about the differences But this author uses the "people claim culture but...IDGAF" and then grasps at straws and pushes an agenda at these characters Not only that but purposely leaves our major story elements for some of these characters

        What kills me is that here, in our culture, when I voice a criticism about a game sold here, men tell me I’m wrong or attempt to ridicule or silence me. The norms in other cultures’ media affect women in ours.

        Because writers are free to tell stories that make the reader, or in this case the player, uncomfortable. Clearly this article gets that the story will make players, female players specifically, uncomfortable for Primrose's situation...

        ...but saying this is a bad thing for... writing uncomfortable stories that don't make their female protagonists Mary Sue's living in constant sunshine? Really? Are your "journalists" really this incapable of inferring what the meaning of these stories really are?

        So many possible meanings that could be conveyed - corruption in this fantasy world, explicitly showing the player that this isn't a world to be fantasized when there are clear problems, etc. But you incompetent nitwits chose the "hurr game is sexist!!!" route for mere clicks.

        I'm glad that very few people take this shitty journalism seriously anymore. I mean, look at the reception - mostly negative comments with only 16 likes considering this account as nearly 10 million followers. When will you get the message?

        Just a little FYI: Not everything is sexist. Stop looking for sexism where it doesn't exist. You just make yourselves and anyone else involved look worse. Octopath has no sexism.

        You are, essentially, limiting the spread of what type of stories women can be presented in, and policing their creative expression. Even in the case of these fictional, not-real characters in Octopath. You are being oppressive.
