I can't play video games anymore. I just can't.
I recently purchased Twilight Princess HD and began playing it in the living room while my roommate (female) watched. She is a "grrl gamer" and wears Zelda shirts and talks about how much she loves video games all while never playing them. She buys all the latest games and does not play them. To each their own, I suppose.
Anyway, I got up to pic related in TPHD and she said, "I love this guy... first example of diversity in a Zelda game."
I nearly lost it. I finished his dialog, went to the menu, saved and quit. I haven't played since.
I had been losing interest in games over the years, slowly waning down to less than an hour per week, but I think this really did it for me.
Her comment was so representative of exactly what's wrong with the """""culture""""" surrounding video games. She wasn't even correct, but she *had* to say it.
Sorry for the blog post. I don't have many friends who would understand why this is a problem. Thank you for reading.

Don't drop the game for that, drop her.

This is your problem with games? You're fucking ridiculous. Who cares about gaming culture

She sounds pretty awful
I wish I could still enjoy games too. I don't know what happened, one day I just stopped being able to

TP is the last good zelda game, don't miss out on it because hipsters give vidya culture cancer and aids.
get it on a gamecube emulator.

twilight princess is not a good game

it's a GREAT game, and the sequel N64 zelda fans deserved to make up for wind waker.
assuming you're in college, she's just consuming the opiate of the masses. I'm sure tons of girls get into the whole sjw thing. as long as she's otherwise cool you should get over it and enjoy the game.

>diversity in a zelda game
He's a pale skinned guy with a jewfro, how is this diversity? Everyone in the game is a Hylian except obviously the sages and the Twili.
I think you quit because the intro to the game is god awful and unless you've done it several times it takes about 2 hours to get to the first temple.I love the game, no matter how much you like the game you have to admit this intro is much too long.

It's the last good Zelda so far. Skyward Sword was good but it pales in comparison to Twilight Princess.

You missed the whole "does not play them"
Hell if she even played the most popular Zelda; OOT, she'd know about Gerudos which predate this guy by 10(?) years.
