This has been the case for years now, but it still boggles my mind. Gaming is an overwhelmingly male hobby. 90% of the people playing enthusiast level video games are male. Yet the clear majority of protagonists in these products are female.
New resident evil? Female protagonist.
New Ghost of Tsushima? Female protagonist.
New Hollow Knight? Female protagonist.
New Silent Hill? Female protagonist.
New World of Warcraft expansion? Female protagonist.
And that’s just the biggest trailers of the night. Gay ass indie is almost entirely female (or queer coded) characters.
Is there another industry that hates its own core customer base this much?
If woke media is poison for your mind, then passing on any game with a female or non-white protagonist is a valid survival strategy.
Asian games are an exception, of course. Eastern European games used to be mostly safe, but warhorses and CDPR are now mega pozzed.
Yea, like I’ve mentioned before I rarely watch anything made after 2014 but non western media is an exception
Japanese companies are getting completely corrupted with DEI as well. Capcom and Square Enix are already completely lost.
