I can see why SJWs on here dislike Quiet.

You see, if you had started your post with anything else but this, it might have actually come across as more believable.

Judging by your profile picture, you're one of them.

Because von uber uses a picture of a video game character as a profile picture?

 

If that is how some people judges how someone might be a "SJW" then it is no wonder the label is tossed around so freely and carelessly that it has lost meaning and bite.

A video game character from a sjw game.

Haven't gotten that far, but I'm sure that's something I'll end up doing. 

 

I suggest you don't bother unlocking any of her equipment, don't waste the resources unless you plan on putting a butterfly emblem in your mother base logo and don't complete her story arc.

[Queen Skadi]

She's a well written character in my opinion, on the same level as the some of the best Bioware characters.

 

Not sure how you can say a character with barely any writing to her can be considered well written, unless this is supposed to be a jab at Bioware's more recent character writing?

To be honest I am not sure what game that character is from? What game is it?

You know the name of the game or are assuming it's sjw-status from the character picture?

I don't so will somebody break the suspense and tell me what it is from?

"Life is Strange" - It is an episodic interactive drama graphical adventure video game about a photography student who discovers she has the ability to rewind time but her choices lead to the butterfly effect.

 

I have yet to play it myself so I am curious as to what makes it as a sjw game beyond seemingly the appearance of one character: Is it the gender of the character, the color of her hair or her hat?

It's from Life is Strange, I think.

How is LiS an "sjw game"? Have you even played it? Something tells me you haven't. It sounds like you're just tossing around the term "sjw" as a lazy attempt to dismiss what von uber is saying rather than have a real conversation about it. And even if LiS was an "sjw" game, or whatever that is even suppose to mean, it doesn't diminish anything that's been said by those you disagree with in this thread.

For the the sort of person who tosses around that meaningless pejorative without irony, literally anything qualifies.

[Dabrikishaw]

I can see value in the idea of a squadmate who wasn't able to talk to us for a plot related reason. This could even be a new alien species that breathes through it's skin depending on how inhuman it looks.

 

I very much would not like that character to be Quiet.

Is Life is Strange anything like Dreamfall: The Longest Journey? Now THAT was a SJW game!

 

Well not really..... but I did find it kind of hilarious how the male character you get to control constantly spoke about how women should be the ones in control and how he was glad that he was from a society where women ruled everything, I do have to wonder what Anita would say about that game. It felt like a game that was written by women for women.

[von uber]

Life is Strange is a SJW game becasue it doesn't have a grizzly white male protagonist and deals with such SJW issues as rape, suicide, drugs and murder.

You know, not manly proper game things like.. murder... or suicide... or drugs or rape.


Edit: incidentally if i had had my latest shep as an avatar would you be saying the same?

[Hazegurl]

Life is Strange is an okay game, the dialouge is atrocious though. The writers try too hard to make the girls sound like teenagers so be prepared for a lot of stupid, cheesy lines and "hella" being said 30 times an episode.

[mickey111]

A character like that worked well in Alpha Protocol, the mute had someone to speak for her.

I adore that game but yeah the dialog leaves a lot to be desired, I get that their suppose to be highschoolers but damn it could of done with a tone down.

 

 

Uh sorry for butting in.

[Dabrikishaw]

Frankly I think Life is Strange would have been better starring college students.

[Shechinah]

Not talking about the whole naked thing but the fact that she does not speak,

 

From what I've leaned about her, I do not believe that Quiet counts as a mute person since she can speak, she chooses not to whereas a mute person generally cannot speak because of something that is beyond their control although there is selective mutism but I believe that is involuntary as well.

 

That said, I'd be onboard with a mute character and think it could be an interesting trait to explore.

I'm laughing so hard at people tossing "SJW" as some kind of a pejorative. "Kids these days, they interest themselves with social justice instead of doing drugs like in the good old days." OHMYGOD call the police!

I don't see why the two are mutually exclusive.

 

But it's funny that some people regard a few well-intentioned teenagers on tumblr as the most pernicious existing threat to their gaming liberty (can't take credit for that characterization, but somebody here wrote that and I thought it was apt, and it stuck with me).

When people throw around "SJW" as an insult they're generally referring to the annoying people who go looking for things to be offended by. People that demand "trigger warnings" on yogurt commercials and such. You know, the ridiculous ones that undercut an otherwise logical and proper group of people.
