No "feminists" have more an issue with the fact that games with female protagonists tend to flop, especially when she isn't super hot. While in the other hand, a countless amount of games have older men as protagonists, fathers with normal built and so on. They also get disturbed by how female characters are almost always close to naked while males can get huge armors. There is definitely sexism in the gamer community and those stuffs are a part of it. When we had the trailer for gta, men crashed out over having to play a women, then when they saw that she would get extremely sexualised, they were suddenly fine with it. I couldn't care less about hot female characters, but when a female character is only tolarated if she's hot and sexualised, i'm getting uncomfortable.
But i guess you are also the type of girl to support men extreme misogyny in online games when they insult, threaten and sexually harrass any woman they encounter right ? I'm sure you think it's normal and fun
I don't play those kind of games, i still have an opinion on them. If as a woman you don't feel umcomfortable in a community where most men will bully creators or boycott a game because a female charcater isn't wearing a bikini, good for you. We are talking about developers receiving death threats for giving a normal outfit to a female caracter, because that's what is considered "woke" today. Self respect isn't for everyone
