It's a strawman argument, always has been. Interesting stories are ones with characters that show the good & ugly sides of human behaviour.

@aikidoka117 It would not be the artist's vision of the world they were writing about. It's a misogynistic setting. Have you played it?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@miracleofsound I said: "Also, there are more ways to convey sexism than slurs during battle." These issues should be handled intelligently1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@aikidoka117 And the game conveys this sexism in many other ways too. have you played through Triss's missions? Or Yennefer's?
