I like how halfway down the list, they just don't care about giving an actual synopsis and just yell the names of the female characters.

Oh, great. Another game that I don't have to like anymore.
A recommendation by "Full" McIntosh and his puppet/lightning-rod Sarkeesian is a sign to avoid a game at all costs.

Your loss. It's a pretty enjoyable game. I guess you also don't have to like Portal and/or any other games they recommend simply for having female lead characters?
So uh, why is this have a thread?

Why is this thread even a thing? lmfao
Why should anyone give a damn about what femfreq, notorious for not having a modicum of knowledge about what they're talking about, has to say? C'mon, ZIv - you're better than this.
EDIT: Actually looked at the list, and it's a bunch of pandering nonsense. To reiterate what Oni said, I love how halfway through the list, they just gave up giving proper info about the games and started spewing off a list of females in each game. Because MUH STRONG FEMALE PROTAGONIST matters more than story or gameplay or controls or - at the very least - price, amiright?

Petition to acknowledge that all video game characters are genderless robots. Fuck you, NO ONE will get representation.

Like I don't know why you guys are complaining that "she just rattles off the names of female characters" when
that's what she's referring to. She's explaining why they're recommended by noting that these games include well-developed and well-written female characters.

>no Alyx Vance from Half-Life 2
>list almost entirely indie titles
aaaand ignored
I know Sarkeesian hasn't the foggiest clue how to make a game, but surely she could identify a good female character.

Sometimes I grab hold of the bar, but not too aggressively. I want the bar to know I care about it, but I also want it to know that im not just gonna stand by and watch other people touch it. We have a good thing going on, I dont wanna lose it just because it thinks that it's ok to let other people touch it like that, I know that it isn't some cheap whore. I embrace that bar, and then I lean in and whisper to it, "you're so smooth", as we get ready to dance, cause I got the beat, and I got the song, so I can't do no wrong.
Tragically beautiful.

Your signature is sexist and keeps women out of ZIV
