Hey there, the developers of Starfield have recently done a Discord Q&A answering questions from the community about several big points. I don’t want to just link to some news article so I summarized the points here in the post....
Completely agreed with the PCGamer article. I quit playing the game because it reminded me of Kojima’s handling of female characters and it just made me really, really uncomfortable that so many NPCs seem to be written only to be horny. BG3 genuinely, hands down, plays out like a porn game very often. I don’t want to play a porn game. I want to play a CRPG.
It is entirely unnecessary and forced and I can only wonder what kind of gamergate people were involved in the decision making there.
I don’t want every one of my games to be turned into porn. I am not a teenage boy who was taught that sex was the epitome of humor and life enjoyment. I want a little more mature writing than that.
Besides, the way that these game developers write sex scenes and romance could not be further removed from my lived experiences.
I feel the same; it’s probably because the way these characters are written in a very “cishet” way just do not evoke my experiences with romance or sexuality at all.
I don’t mind sexuality and romance, not even in my games. I do mind what amounts to fan service porn and constant sex shoved in one’s face. The article makes good points.
Your entire account is video game porn mods catering to horny men who are afraid of or disgusted by real women.
It’s not about “being comfortable with people’s bodies”, it’s about shaming women as “prudes” if they do not feel comfortable the power dynamic that often comes with sex in hetero society (especially with straight men) being shoved in their faces and told to participate. “Stop being a prude” is the equivalent of “smile more (for me)” or “start wearing less”.
I do not have to participate in men’s power fantasies about fictional women because they never talked to a real woman and think that boob armor and 2B’s design are the pinnacle of womanhood and “liberating sexuality” while the only thing it does is making them into sex objects to be stared at and thirsted after like some kind of predator-prey dynamic or product to buy at the market. There is nothing liberating about it.
Y’all just want to jerk off to women. Just admit that you just want to jerk off to naked women. It has nothing to do with “being open about sexual topics”, or about sexual liberation, it has everything to do with getting your dick hard and thinking it’s some kind of political statement at the same time. Male (or male socialized) savior syndrome.
BG3 clearly, obviously caters to sweaty D&D neckbeards’ fantasies about “smeggsy” women, mid-tier fantasy writing and fulfilling their power fantasy of murdering, fucking indiscriminately, and avoiding responsibility at the same time. It’s the entire concept of the game. It is made by and for typical Redditors. There is nothing liberating about a porn game. There is no authentic romance, no negotiation of consent, no talking, no connecting as human people, there is only “playersexual” NPCs handcrafted to get predatory men horny who think they’re entitled to women’s (and these NPCs’) bodies and attention. It’s a power fantasy.
