Looks like the ‘uglification’ of female characters is real.

    Good chunk of Lemmy users are very neo-liberal or Communist and disagree with this article. See the down-votes and comments here.

      The downvotes might just be there because someone decided to write a assumptive article about a single tweet. I don’t see any bad comments.

      As a communist neo-liberal myself, I think all women in video games and real life should look like straight dogshit.

      What do economic and political ideals have to do with how women are portrayed in video games? It’s completely irrelevant.

      People complain all the time about how women aren’t represented in games, or how the media focuses too much on beautiful women, etc. And now people complain that they’re too normal? There’s really no winning here, is there?

      I don’t see a point to this article, it’s just complaining for the sake of complaining.
