I know your questions are directed to Jim Sterling, but your comment caught my eyes and I would like to share my opinion about it. Bayonetta is a tricky subject. Because there is one side that see objectification in her and another side who see her as idealised and as a female power fantasy...

First thing : Abs ? Boobs. Not every woman likes muscles. While it's quite hard to find a man that doesn't like breasts there are plenty of women that don't like muscles. Even if some men like small breasts the general idea is more is always better while, for muscles, even the women that like...

I am not sure if this answer is serious or an attempt to make fun of my answer. Anyway, I will reply as if it is a serious question. First, self-hating is a pretty strong word but, without going to "hate" I definitely have this weird vibe about other women. That they think of themselves as...

Exactly, the beautiful thing about cheese is that it loves you too. Don't stop loving cheese, no matter what, eventually they will taste it and see the light too.

You are wrong. It's not misandry. Just read the answers to your thread, most peoples that think it's not ok to defend yourself against a woman think so because they believe women are too weak to cause harm and too weak to sustain one blow from a mighty man. The idea it's bad to hit girls...

Spot1990 is pretty on spot there. If a few friends find you condescending they are probably stupid and jealous, if it keeps happening times and times again. Well ... maybe it's time to look in the mirror. As for religion ... atheists grate my nerves. And I am atheist myself. First, atheism...

Double post, sorry.

You mentionned it all. I'll just add that I think the boss should not be too "hard" either. It depends on the kind of game and the purpose of the boss but, unless the boss should feel like this, the fight shouldn't feel like you can't win otherwise it just becomes tedious and frustrating and...

Actually, they're doing this to make up for their torso fiasco. The couple will not have one but TWO cakes, one will be a bloodied ribcage with massive tits and the second will be a bikini clad lady rump.

Treat them like humans but don't forget to leach them. And giving them a good yank from time to time is a good idea too. But don't forget : Always treat them like humans. (Because they definitely are not !)

A lot of JRPG are mature. Pretty much any Final Fantasy or Breath of Fire are mature, the Phantasy Star serie too. What makes maturity is the story telling, deep characters, even "one dimentional" characters can be written in a mature manner. Game of Thrones, on the other hand, I watched...

That. And I'm done reading this stupid thread right there. Special mention to Azure-Supernova too. Congratulation for having common sense, it's not that common. Yet, I will still comment on that whole "hitting a woman" mess. Boys, it's time to turn your TV off, it's time to stop learning...

Elves are inspired by Elves ... At first they were from Norse Mythology (where Tolkien took a lot of inspiration) they were almost god-like entity and some human had the chance to reborn as elves. (Side note there were already Light Elves and Dark Elves in the Norse Myths) Later, with...

Female here, I just created an account to answer this actually. From what I understand she was actually stronger than you, then, if anything, she should be the one protecting you. It is not "more acceptable" to protect a woman that doesn't need it than it is for a man, I'm sure if it was a...
