> We're talking about a game in which, all parties stipulate, your playable character can physically assault a stripper. Yes, is that misogynistic? The game is about a Hitman. He can assault and kill anyone on the screen. Both men and women. In that particular section of the game, assaulting a stripper will reduce the rating of the player i.e. the game discourages the player from doing so. Why? Because you're supposed to be a Hitman who only kills their target without collateral damage. If you believe I'm misrepresenting what she said I'll dig up the video for you where the critique was made and you can judge for yourself. > The gross misrepresentation is Sarkeesian's belief that the game encourages players to do that, refuted by the fact that a number at the top left of the screen in fact decreases when you do. What number? Are you referring to my points for my comment? edit: Here's the video link[0]. Skip to 2:28. If you don't accept that she misrepresented Hitman than I don't believe we'll ever see eye-to-eye on this issue. It's important to stamp out misogyny. Just don't be dishonest. Fighting a good fight does not give you a free pass for doing other bad things. [0] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuRSaLZidWI&t=148 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuRSaLZidWI&t=148
