When we are talking about video games "we don't have a right to a personally tailored product"". OK. But please consider what would happen when you say that your seamstress. You are basically saying that people have no right to ask for personally tailored products.  


You can not go to a (enter general clothing store) seamstress and request that she sews you something specifically. There is no such option. Either you are confection size, and the general clothing items fit you, or you are not and you are doomed (like me). Then you either find a seamstress/tailor who makes a clothing piece JUST for you (for a huge amount of money) or (like me) you learn to make your own clothings for way cheaper.

Probably this is true, there are more straight males buying video games then women. This is however (luckily) a changing trend. More and more other people become paying power in purchasing these games. It also shows in the shift of story telling style in RPG games throughout the years. I do not think female players are neglected in the stories or that animations are only aimed at straight males (or homosexual females). The only game I heavily felt it is made not for me was Witcher due to the overdose of sexuality in the game.

I'll point out that the Female perspectives were not missing in helping to development and write Dragon Age 1 & 2. I didn't have a single part in DA2 where I thought there was Objectification of females while at least not also a male being compromised at the same time, alas Sebastians Act 2 quest. He thinks he sees horny in the game because he is blind to what others may see in the same action. Some males will see a character like Isabela with a ton of cleaveage and fixate on that. I instead noticed how Hawke and Merrill were not like isabela or bethany.

Now the max of 3 human females you could have in the group that would walk that way are Isabela, Bethany & Hawke. I didn't find this walk as anything outrageous or odd. I actually thought the idle animations for the females were amusing and to a point cute. How they checked their hands in 2 different ways and how they have 2 different ways to attempt to rub stuff off their shoes. Instead of just "insert head turning here". A slight hip sway does not automatically mean a sexual move or action unless someone is wired to think of this as so. I did not at the very least and I am a male.

Ugh. I am so tired of these threads.. We've had some great discussion lately, such as in the Fereldan Circle thread and I thought this community had moved pass this "I feel cheated" crap. At this point, if you don't like the game, don't come on here and demand Gaider or any of the devs to personally apologize to you. It's bizzare and you're overstepping.

Bet the real reason is because if they post their reviews in the thread for it, they most likely would never get a response. A direct letter to him would totally work right? I mean to give them some sort of gratficatin like they are teaching him a lesson? The ego that can be granted to people over the internet is great. It's like a giant whale shark floating around waiting and hoping to eat up other players and or the game creators as well.

btw, cause I referenced a whale shark. Some may know what other game I've played recently. The thing haunts me in my sleep.

This, a thousand times this.
