The Uglification of Female Characters in Western Developed Video Games

As someone who likes playing as female characters in video games I’ve been noticing an ongoing trend in western developed games over the years where they purposely uglify them. The devs reasoning behind this is to not make them objectified/sexualized, and to make them more realistic looking. Making ...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 325: 3/23/24: Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist/Grandia HD Collection/South Park: Snow Day

I took a break from playing Outriders and started playing a cute top down view pixel art action RPG golf hybrid game called RPGolf Legends. Despite what I said earlier about not really liking pixel art games these days, I still kind of do especially for RPGs. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cdpVlroMGC...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 325: 3/23/24: Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist/Grandia HD Collection/South Park: Snow Day

No offense, but that doesn't sound like a recent issue. :P You're kind of known for falling off games very quickly. Yeah I know, but it’s gotten worse lately. That sounds miserable to me phase. Maybe it is to you too. I look forward to playing every game I start, and I only put it down if it's sub-...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 325: 3/23/24: Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist/Grandia HD Collection/South Park: Snow Day

No sense in stressing out over things that can't be changed. And hey, those games will be available for you on PS5 if/when your tastes change directions again. Yeah, the reason why I’ve been feeling the way that I have been is because a lot of PS5 games that I want have been coming out lately and I...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 325: 3/23/24: Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist/Grandia HD Collection/South Park: Snow Day

I’ve been having some buyer’s remorse lately due to all of the PS4 digital and indie games that I’ve bought. I have over 700 of them, and I don’t have much of an interest in playing a lot of them. I bought them over the years, and my interests have somewhat changed over the years. I’m not really int...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 325: 3/23/24: Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist/Grandia HD Collection/South Park: Snow Day

Current backlog: 34 My current Backlog is around 1000 games. :lol: Man, a lot going down in Sea of Stars. What a great game. Am I the only one here who has played it?? I guess that you missed this: in case you're wondering what that game is in my profile below, it's Sea of Stars. Loving it so far. ...

Played: Outriders Finished: Nothing Playing: Outriders Added: Nothing Outriders makes a really good first impression, it begins like a third person action adventure shooter. Unfortunately it doesn’t take long until it becomes more of a typical co-op third person looter shooter where all that you ba...

Re: The Backlog Check-in Vol. 324: 3/16/24: Alone in the Dark/Dragon’s Dogma II/Princess Peach: Showtime!/Rise of the Ro

I've been hearing more mid reviews for Rise of the Ronin, and as for Alone In The Dark...it looks... bad . I played the original game WAAAAY back in the day, and there's never been another good AITD game since then, sadly. I’ve seen good reviews for Alone in the Dark and Rise of the Ronin, perhaps ...

Yeah, it’s been getting great reviews. The new Alone in the Dark and Rise of the Ronin have been getting good reviews too. My list of PS5 games that I want continues to grow, I’m hoping to get one this Christmas.

Four kiddos? :o I couldn’t even handle one. My brother and his wife have one which is almost two now, and he completely consumes their life.
