>>322157320
>Story Rich
>Rogue-Like
What a contradiction.
>>322165619
I'd imagine its possible but I can't think of any.
tfw in the middle of "female oppression times", shakespeare created better and deeper female characters than any of these mary sue "muh female power" caricatures. I mean Lady Macbeth was one hell of a character. Strong female antagonist but strong in a feminine way not making her act like a man nor giving her physical ability of a man.
>>322164458
Can you name three games you like, or consider good?
>>322166045
That's the problem though
You're absolutely right, but your example shows the exact problem we face in gaming.
SJWs CLAIM they dislike when a character is "ms male" but that's EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT. If a female character, god forbid a female protagonist, displays feminine features in her personality it's always considered a flaw or weakness.
You literally can't win.
>>322166487
All the more reason to cut them out entirely.
>>322166581
Or you could just ignore the peanut gallery and just make what you want.
>>322165783
Tales of Maj'Eyal?
>>322166794
Unfortunately posting samus isn't really a good example anymore. I really don't think she'll ever have a good game again. Other M will be how people remember her>>322166794

Nothing wrong with female protags, but if that's the only selling point of your game, you need to fuck right off.
>>322160178
If it's advertised as a feature it is
>>322167130
Oh. So you're just a generic shitposter. Got it.
>>322164858
Yes this. There's nothing wrong with a female protagonist, but if they feel the need to shove it in your face how BRAVE they're being by making a game with a chick (despite there being plenty of games featuring women as protagonists since the beginning of the industry) then they either have an agenda to push, or they're trying to gloss over a shitty game with boring politics.

and they were only played by men
I'm pretty sure "Female Protagonist" refers to the creator of the game focusing too much on the main character's sex for a selling point rather than simply who they are.
>>322167719
Link?
>>322167719
Got any examples of this that aren't just the same old Depression Quest, Undertale, etc games?

It doesnt refer to anything. Final Fantasy 13 has that tag and you're not even required to play as Lightning.

>>322168583
so? it doesn't mean he wrote them thinking women were important or mattered, since he knew a guy was going to play the role
>>322163145
Women are a meme gender.
>>322168547
Wow I kind of regret giving them money. W/e the game is still good. The one thing that disappoints me is that they missed the opportunity to have a big ass burly bearded dancing viking with an axe guitar for the metal version of soundtrack.
>>322168093
i wouldnt say unique but refined and effective definitely
Women protagonists from Japan are fine. Women protagonists from the west are shit and usually used to push an agenda, prove me wrong.

Well, there's *some* truth to what he said. Shakespeare didn't really set out to make high art; his plays were kind of like the summer blockbusters of his time period. They were meant to be accessible and enjoyable for everyone. They language sounds extremely high-class to us because that's not how we talk, but it was normal for his time.
>>322166045
Stop posting InCase.
It's not that time.I love her dark hands its like a built in silk glove fuck.

When it's tagged like that, I don't play it. Automatic assumption is, "It's probably some preachy activist shit, had to mention specifically that there was a female lead"
Definitely sick of filtering at this point. With all forms of media/news. Would rather just swath edit everything. Avoid it, bullshit or not.
