I like Rivet the way she is now, and it's not a woman so they can depict her the way they want. But everything is becoming political nowadays. It's really tiresome.

Honestly this is the best gaming news I've heard all day. I'm glad Insomniac got him up outta there.

What is that guy on about? He's acting like Rivet was running around the game only dressed in a miniscule bikini with her huge breasts always on the cusp of falling out.
the designers should have given Rivet a dick and bulging biceps to break societal norms while wearing a Soviet Union logo tshirt and a fedora

He was right and I'm glad he spoke up which ultimately made Rivet's design better in my opinion. Lots of games anthropomorphize supposed Alien characters, especially the female ones in ways that don't make sense. Most erroneous one is a serpentine alien character in xcom with breasts.

Cant wait til Kratos sleeps with a man, seeing that spartans fucked whatever came in their path. Maybe they'll make Alexander the Great his bf. Loki is more traditional, he turns into a woman first, then gets jammed. It is gonna be epic at Daddy Sony SJW headquarters.

Naughty Dog also doesn't care about black peepow just like Dubya

The topic has been discussed before here on Era, & I'm glad that Naughty Dog's anti-Blackness is being covered more often. And even then, this is a great article that's worth the read. Check the link below for the rest of the article. Source: Medium

We're already there.
Seen the D2 remake? The Amazon class looks like kratos with tits.
I find so weird that feminity has become taboo in western dev.

And this is why anyone thinking the gaming industry will change for the better is wrong, most of game devs share the views of REEEE, and anyone who doesn't will never get a fair shot in this market, its the reality, folks.Not surprisingly, this topic is playing differently on another forum:

It means you identify as the gender you were born as (and maybe also that you're heterosexual, not sure if that's part of it or if you can be cis and gay). So it's a very bad thing to be in certain people's minds. To them it basically means you're an oppressor and part of "the problem".

Eh, doubt most game development studios are like reeeee. Some, sure. But game devs have jobs for starters.

After just finishing ff7r on PS5... Wow it is such a breath of fresh air. They don't give a crap about this bs. Tifa looks hot af. Jessie even better and hits on cloud like if there was no tomorrow. Japanese don't give a fuck but at the same time they censor everything... Yet it's still better than western sjw culture crap.

Renaissance art put tits on stuff all the time for tits-sake, and that worked out pretty well for society.

That's the point. A character can have feminine characteristics without necessarily having big breasts and big ass or supper curvy hips. In the end, Rivet didn't need big breast or wide hips to read as feminine based on her character design alone. He had a legit complaint and it made for a better design. Trying to imagine a Rivet design with big breast and hips and it looks wrong. Lol

Nd goes out of their way to develop deep black characters but they died so it doesn't matter. I guess Vito Corleone was a shit character because he was also killed off to push Michael Corleone over the edge.
That Mario Puzo. What a hack.

Most game studios share this distorted progressive view, out of principle or self interest. Sure, maybe their workplace is less toxic than resetera, but im sure someone leaning to a more conservative world view would never last long in the industry.,

Notice how when they try to complain to Japanese studios about this stuff the studios either outright ignore it with no response or give a joke answer like Taro. You don't argue or debate crazy people. You ignore them.

nah they just hate women.
Women like looking pretty. Women like seeing other beautiful women. It's the men who want to make women look ugly for reasons that should be obvious by now.

Calling these wankers 'men' is a stretch.
If I had a son that would turn into something like this I would get it put down.

Actually, you gave me an insight that maybe Sumo Digital will not be allowed to ever make a trans character now that they are owned by Tencent, this is curious.Maybe China buying up some studios isn't so bad.

I would surmise alot of these dudes are probably jealous of attractive women and wish they were women themselves.

This idiot unironically starting his tweets with "fellow men" and saying he's part of the problem, what problem? is there a soylent shortage going on?
The men were the ones who sat the table and defended a female character having a female body.
