Re: I'm not sure if this is part one of the series or part one of this trope but
[quote name="Mysterio"][quote name="Worm"]The entire thing was so painfully small in scope, so maybe there are going to be like 8 parts for the Damsel in Distress, I don't know. She spends most of the video complaining about fucking Nintendo franchises which are as old as dirt. Japanese are sexist and sequels tend to have similar stories, no fucking shit. So we're talking about some global sexism construct which surpasses cultures? Should we censor Japanese imports? I don't get it, bring up Duke Nukem or Bioshock. In the end all she shows is that video games are highly influenced by existing media, but yet somehow rather than changing those more traditional media that gaming basically copies, we're gonna make gaming into some queer thing no one can relate to or understand. I guess culture is only as strong as it's weakest link, and naturally that's where blowhards and idiots try to foist their horrible beliefs on everyone.[/quote] She's fucking garbage. Arcade games had 10 seconds to get your attention, of course they were going to use TROPES. It is so fucking disingenuous of her to pull her shit on arcades. She doesn't understand anything about making money, she doesn't understand that they had, what, 240x120 pixels to work with, she doesn't understand anything. TROPES TROPES TROPES TROPES though [/quote]
