    Honestly the problem isn't that women aren't overly sexy anymore.
    The problem is that alot of women are just way to masculine to the point where it just becomes ridiculous. Combined with snarky and unlikable personality.
    Alot of the women in the older Naughty dog games were decent looking, respectable women and some are badasses, the same way as the men were portrayed.

    • @jish55
      @jish55 Місяць тому

      I mean, when they're in extremely active roles that require a lot of physical strength and endurance, you're gonna get more masculine women. It's honestly dumb to have action games where the women AREN'T muscular, where they look more like runway models that in real life would get their faces broken in after the first conflict they undergo.

    • @markedone494

      Can you honestly say that the chich from interstellar is this hypermasculine dude?
      Why? Cuz of the bald head?
      Like jesus christ the first thing that comes to my mind when i see a bald chick is Jack from mass effect and how badass and cool she is.
      You people are so miserable, you go through your lives obviously not knowing how to interact with women, so you got comfortable falling in love with imaginary game women and now you feel personally attacked when a woman in a game isnt designed just around the male gaze but are actual characters with their own motives and wants.

    • @sparda9060
      @sparda9060 Місяць тому +1

      The fact that people hate these female characters is because they literally are made like male characters with face and voice of a female instead... They got them looking like dudes, acting like it, personality, and every other masculine trait there is yet they want people to buy into their BS and believe thats a woman lol and a good female character at that! HA!!

    • @Axelrun1994
      @Axelrun1994 Місяць тому +1

      I don't think these LGHQTV advocates understand what made women bad ass in these games. It was their femininity and the fact that they were in tune enough with it to understand how to use it and leverage it to get where they needed to get or get what they wanted, while also being athletic enough to hold their own... Now they just shave their head and make them act like some mediocre man archetype. And what's hilarious is that they genuinely think that the majority of their game base WANTS this trash.

      Not an Abby hater, i didn't really care about that drama, but they're going too far with the image they give to their games, it's so drastic and so fast not even the fan base accepts it.
      This can really damage the image of the studio getting that much hate, to release another game that will get you hate, 10 years of pure drama at least until they release some uncharted remake or TLOUS part 3.

    Elena was the right fit of feminism. Strong, smart, and pretty. She got a sense of humor. She is every man's dream girl. She was real. But Naughty Dog said she wasn't good enough and they created the monstrosity that was Abby and now we got whatever that was in Intergalactic.

But somewhere along the line it was taken over by the extremists and activist and LGBTQ extremists. That's when all the hating of men started. So they twisted what the Feminist really stand for.

      Nate and Helena's child was also supposed to be a son but this was changed later to a daughter because "it wouldn't affect anything."
      But it absolutely does. If I want to play as afemale treasure hunter, I play Tomb Raider. The whole charm of Uncharted is that it's basically Tomb Raider but with a guy. So Nate's son would be far more logical for a potential sequel. Imagine if this was the other way around. Imagine if a Tomb Raider game releases and instead of Lara Croft you play as her son in the future or something. Who in the right mind would want that? Lara's daughter on the other hand would be far more acceptable. Same case here, Nate's son would be better.

      I couldnt stop laughing after i saw Eve from Stellar blade caked in make up during an apocalypse… But i guess thats what you people want, some of the least original writting supported by fan service for the sexually deprived.
      Also, eves face isnt that of a real woman like her body, so if you wanna compare western to eastern maybe get an example of a female character from asia thats actually face captured by a real woman and not an imaginary face that you compare to actual western actresses while calling actual women acting as these characters ugly.

    Naughty Dog had good and well written female characters, all thanks to Amy Hennig as a writer and director, before Neil Druckmann came along as director and co-writer with his woke looks. This was already reflected in the development of The Last of Us, if anyone read the story of development. And then, part 2 hammered the last nail into the coffin... it was considered until the appearance of the Intergalactic trailer.

      The main problem with people hating part 2 is everyone considers Joel to be a hero while he himself does not.
      Their was an old animated 3 part VHS movie about aliens abducting people and in the 3rd you find out the aliens are trying to prevent basically tyranids from being able to continue devouring the galaxy and realize their not entirely bad.
      (If anyone knows what this was plz tell me and thank you)

    Naughty Dog started their downhill trajectory starting with The Last of Us Part 2. I knew they weren't the same studio anymore. When they killed Joel, it was the end of the franchise and any hope from the studio for me. They were more about politicizing than entertaining. Naughty Dog became less sexy and more cringeworthy. Anyway I written off the studio similar to how I did with Bioware, Ubisoft, Bethesda, 343i (now Halo studios), Bungie, they were at the peak but the only direction is down. Gaming is not what it used to be anymore.

    It's so annoying seeing everyone worry about how "unfeminine" the characters are getting. In the last of us, there are plenty of feminine characters and everyone is losing their sh!t over one muscley woman. Lets not forget to mention, they live in an apocalyptic world, its risky to wear something nice and feminine when out and about, why would you wear short sleeves and a pretty low neckline if youre at constant threat of being bitten there? Theres no time to worry about pretty clothes, you NEED something practical to survive, and womans clothes are the least practical thing there is. We're even shown how beauty standards have changed when ellie asks why that poster of a woman is so skinny and joel tells ellie about how that was the beauty standard, ellie is shocked hearing this because in a world where food is scarce, why would you willingly stay skinny?? You need fat for energy and survival. Survival is first, beauty is second.

    Elena is gorgeous and has a natural face, you don't see eyeliner or eyeshadow or lipstick. She's a natural beauty. other females later are also natural and their faces are diverse and unique to their own too, Elena is basically the stereotypical perfect Woman, not saying we shouldn't make more female protagonist or characters like Elena. I think they are adding more females with diverse faces, to make the characters memorable and Unique. If you look at many games featuring Asian girls, they all look too similar to the point you can't tell if the character is from that game or the next so it's not memorable or unique, even if the girls look pretty they just don't stand out. You can make any character look unique regardless of race so there's no excuse. Looks like Naughty dog are adding more females that have a stronger build, may not look soft and fragile like Elena but they are still strong and still look like a Woman regardless except for the one in last of us.....that's just not realistic.

      Ripley was bald only in 3 movie and because she was at prison. And she still looks like women even without hair. That's the problem with that type of "strong independent" women characters we have nowadays in gaming, they trying to looks like men for some reason😂

      @@Rivercloud, assuming for a second that this comment isn’t rage bait (seriously I cannot fully believe someone is as demented as this), you do realise you sound more racist and problematic than the people you claim to be against?

      The last of us 2 trailer was deceptive (google this topic)
      Since then, people lose trust in Neil story telling.
      The latest intergalactic bald female lesbian cocky main character.. well its just ugly.. and all the lesbian thing is forced. The actresses also blatantly mock gamers. and people doesn't trust Neil anymore.
