Kat @_Vs_The_World I kinda like my escapist fiction to you know, be that. Not deconstructions or scathing rejections of it. If you brag that you took an i.p and subverted it im just not going to play it. Im too tired of the 'we took that thing you like and improved it, its mature now' mentality. 11:19 AM · Feb 3, 2021 · Twitter Web App 142 Retweets 1 Quote Tweet 704 Likes Kat @_Vs_The_World -· 12h Replying to @_Vs_The_World If I want subversion i'll look for it. Doom proves that sticking to what people love works (which is probably why it didn't win any game awards) Not every game needs to be film critic bait. The industry has an issue with self loathing, a need to be seen as mature and respectable. 27 39 263 Kat = @_Vs_The_World · 11h Anytime someone mentions a sexy character you can almost feels a lot of devs shrinking away out of embarrassment, like oh no someone likes our characters! and then you have RE devs who are like "Thank you!" thats more mature than acting awkward when sex and violence is brought up 27 32 219 Kat @_Vs_The_World · 11h You don't have to make embarrassed excuses for including fun, sex or violence "Oh well you see its a subversion, this character she uses sexy outfits to explore the deeper meaning of sexualization" when its a game about fighting demons just say she a fun loving sexy character.

I find myself growing increasingly tired of supposedly "deep" and "meaningful" games
I just want to blow up bastards, laugh at cheesy dialogue, and experience semi-surrealist alien landscapes for gods' sakes

If women don't need a 20-page philosophical argument (complete with a Chicago-style bibliography) to justify why they love romance novels, then men like me shouldn't need one either to justify why we like characters like Bayonetta. Sometimes, I just wanna look at sexy women without being called a Nazi.
