You’re saying you hope this game inspires impatient females?
I’m honestly not trolling - isn’t a statement like this inherently sexist?
Why would women not like a “childish” game?
I know you didn’t mean to offend but I’m unsure of the message
I’m getting the impression the way culture is heading is there is to be less focusing on differences
Please correct me if I’m wrong

- ionwake 3y ago"Please correct me if I am wrong" means I may have totally misinterpreted what you said, so there is no need to ask me to consider this, but its cool if english is not your first language. All the best thanks, don't worry about the dead-end, have a good evening.
- pornel 3y agoIt's not inherently sexist to point out differences between sexes, especially in context that isn't discriminatory. There are also practical differences due to environment and culture, not biology. In case of games, usually the problem is that the stories are written from a perspective of a male fantasy, where role of women is reduced to just being a pretty accessory. "Dead hooker" jokes aren't equally funny to everyone. Whether this game will be more appealing to women remains to be seen. It's not merely about having a female-looking avatar, but about having an intereresting character that women would want to see themselves as, and not feel objectified (which games sometimes fail with things like bikini armor, or on the other end overdoing the trope of a "strong female character" to the point of being a boring cliche).
