We might as well have "Black Protagonist" or "Trans Protagonist" tags, too
>>
>>339448256
This tag exists because Steam now accepts submissions from Japan and they always have cute girls in their games

It has nothing to do with FUCKING SJWs REEEEEEEE

I like to have female protagonists sometimes
The real question is how do we improve female protagonists? Especially in western games where they're almost always shit.
>>
>>339448256
by making a thread about it, showing how butthurt you are, thereby spreading it to more minds. y'know what, i think i'll make a game with a female protagonist in it now, because op is such a whiny little bitch.

You could try stop being butthurt

end your anal butt-suffering, and see if that helps
>>
>>339448965
When you market your movie based on the idea that the cast will be all-female, which is just as ill-received as if someone did it with an all-male cast. It's pointless and it didn't help the movie that the jokes in the trailer were HORRIBLE.

I'll be honest, I don't mind at all, a think they are cool regardless of the setting. My gripe here is why does it has to be announced?
Male protag
Female protag
Animal protag
Etherial protag
Who cares what the protagonist is? Why is this a Tag?
>>
>>339448965
Letting a director of bad chick flicks direct anything else. Also, being agenda based where it shouldn't be.
>>
>>339449120
Men going their own way. It's a bunch of people who got have been rejected by women so much that they don't want to associate with them in any capacity so they "go their own way" and live a life without women
>>

>>
>>339448723
Get rid of SJWs. No one cares when a male protag is just abs and grit, but if you create a female character who isn't out of a Virgina Woolfe novel you are somehow worse than hitler. Videogames would be better if it was just full of cute girls for the sake of being cute girls.
>>
>>339449271
Literally because there are much fewer female protagonists than men. That's just the balance of things currently.

The actual meme is "We need more female protagonists in games."
So to kill it, count up the number of games with this tag, and compare it to the number of those that don't.
>>
>>339449424
So are protagonists that are not humanoid.
The tag is unnecessary

>despite all this, push the movie ad nauseam because Sony is desperately hoping for a summer blockbuster that will sell lots of tickets and merchandise
need i go on
>>
>>339449424
there are less female soldiers, firefighters, police, construction workers, sewer maintenance workers and thousands of other things

maybe the type of characters portrayed in games come from groups that in real life are more masculine
>>
>>339449463
That's not reason to assume that's why the tag exist.
>>
>>339448256
Create a label named "male protagonist"
Laugh if anyone bitches.

Otherwise I don't give a shit I just like seeing full grown adults whining about stupid shit
>>
>>339448654
It's not our fault that opinions such as OP's usually belong to those type of people.

Fedora neckbeards did this to themselves man.
>>
>>339449602
That's shit though. I guess it's okay if you play FPS games but I prefer 2hus and cute girls doing cute things

This tag is useful. It actually brings up a LOT of animu games.
>>
>>339449561
TFA did the same but raked in billions
Guess Disney's marketing team is just better than Sony's
>>
>>339449531
Then tag that.

Seriously, name a single game that wouldn't be better with cute girls as all the characters.

Oh wait, you can't.
>>
>>339449759
They weren't as blatant about it. Also TFA still had male characters and old ones too.

AVGN did a video about this and said they did good by keeping old characters like Han Solo. Ghostbusters does not do this

everyone i know who uses it uses it for muh female empurarment

That game pretty much requires muscled men for the concept (80's movie setting) to even work.

Any game with a brother/father-like bond theme going on.
Shit's not the same with women

How does the tag system work?
If I put non-anthropomorphic protagonist it will just let me do that and appear automaticaly?

>>339448256
By not buying any that have one
>>
>>339449960
Then you'll be missing out on a lot of Japanese games

Just because a game has a female protag doesn't make it SJW

Anon you will learn that full grown adults are usually the ones that make the least amount of sense.

It's something like, if enough people put the tag it'll appear. There was an obvious demand for the female protagonist tag so it appeared.

games about being brothers in arms or comrades on the battlefield

Why not? I'd not give a shit if there was a male protagonist tag. But if it appears, I know it's from reactionary cunts who make an issue out of it.

To kill the meme, just chill the fuck out. People who raise hell over stupid issues largely do it for attention. It's hard to be a self-styled "activist" when nobody really cares about your issues, one way or another.
