Woman are objectified far more than men, and this is especially rife in the gaming industry. Things are improving, but we still get stuff like Tifa which is overtly sexualized pandering.
Men are not subjected to the same level of objectification and sexualization, so of course one is going to be more of an issue than the other.
Is it fair? No, it's not... but that goes both ways, right? And one of these things is more unfair and more negatively affecting than the other.
There are two types of games. Male and political
bait.
Just play games. If shit like tits keeps you up at night then do something else.
Looking forward to playing this. The combat is so cool.
No. Things have to change. We need to stop enabling and normalizing harmful portrayals in games.
There's no harm done. I'm going to bed.
Retard Era libs
Who the hell is the dude with the hat?
Dilate.
Noctis dyed his hair grey.
"Fix" Hollywood, Sports Cheerleading, Porn, & Advertising instead. You know, media that actually objectifies real women rather than fictional characterizations of not-real cartoons.
Also dilate more.
They are all problematic in their own way and we shouldn't ignore or make concessions for one but not the others. Gaming must change as must movies and other popular media.
Tifa vs Aerith is a social commentary on soul vs. objectification
Tifa struggles and suffers as a result of her subconscious desire for power and her negative self image as someone that doesn't meet these expectations.
Meanwhile Aerith is rock solid psychologically, while not being sexualized in any way. She challenges the weak damsel trope, while calling Cloud out on his pretentious fake masculine act.
You can call it what you want, but if you just look at Tifa's tits and write it off as objectification without engaging with the work, you are as vapid and shallow as the people you accuse of playing the game to jerk off.
shut up fag
What are you talking about? Have you seen Cloud Strife? How many real guys can measure up to that standard?
A book character
she had to wear a sjw sports bra/spats cuz faggtos like u bitch
You and I have different definitions of harm
>be Cloud
>literally halve your lifespan for power because you were bullied as a child for not being man enough
>get used by the military as a pawn for violence and thrown away for dead
>get treated like a human dildo by the majority of the female cast, with one girl constantly making unwanted sexual propositions towards him
>sell self as a literal object of violence to make a living, joining a terrorist group because he has no other options
>have to suppress emotions so millions of nerds can use him as their self insert
Indeed, no male objectification or sexualization here
>She challenges the weak damsel trope
>party has to storm Shinra HQ to save her
Recommend me some gaming girls with big tiddies and big asses. Mass Effect has a lot of them.
Games are for men, only.
You don't believe this.
Thank god the chinese don't give a shit about these kind of things
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is the closest you'll get to a hentai game without it being one.
>Woman are objectified far more than men,
And that's a good thing.
On another note, this scene really made me like Tifa even more, she's just a sweet girl.

Of course not. Nothing sexualised about Kratos walking around half naked with muscles bulging out of everything bashing literal Gods to death.
Sometimes I wonder if this is a bait thread or there are literally people coming to Yas Forums of all places to push their PC narrative
What is this image meant to convey?
You idiocy and obnoxiousness hurts all your gender making you all seem like utter retards more than some random tits on video games.
>inb4 I was just pretending to be retarded lol
Yeah, ""pretending"".
Women are not men.
Learn to deal with god's granted inferiority. No amount of HRT or surgery will make a woman into anything more than a woman.
Of course not, cloud is perfect.
He's powerful and has a nice face and can protect the ladies and he doesn't have useless emotions that I have to pretend to care about! He's perfect! All men should be like him or else!
Tifa having tits is not great tho. Shame on Square Enix. Women shouldn't need to be perfect.
>Men are not subjected to the same level of objectification and sexualization, so of course one is going to be more of an issue than the other.
Men are sexualized and objectified just like female characters; the main difference is that females characters are more likely to be subjected to sexual violence, and that is mainly at the fault of lazy writers who have no idea how to write antagonist.
As an actual woman all I can say is cope and seethe harder you fucking tranny. The only people who get this upset about the objectification of women are jealous and catty because they themselves are ugly as sin. The only times this kind of stuff is actually a problem is a game like MGSV where theres no good reason for her to be dressed like that and it kind of kills the suspension of disbelief for such a serious setting. But even then, I just didnt buy the game. If other people want to play a shitty game its up to them. Trying to dictate what can and cant be in a game is authoritarian bullshit and male brained. Go be a tranny somewhere else.
Nope, not a woman. As a cis male, I can accept not knowing everything. However, women can have internal misogyny which makes it difficult to see where you are being exploited and demeaned by writers in the media you consume. I'm glad you agree that the way Quiet, Cindy and other women characters is sexist and frankly, just gross.
