somehow being a female mass-murderer doesn't feel as bad as being a male mass-murderer

One of my friends in high school who I assumed was just as awkward as I was had three female roommates in his copy of animal crossing wild world named after girls we went to school with. We're still good friends.

exmorte posted:In multiplayer/competitive games its always a lady because that extra frame worth of time the enemy is male-gazing it up is all the edge I need to pwn their noob asses this is why I pvp with a female dwarf rogue who has orange hair. It is a rare combination and that alone turns every player into steve erwin while i'm on the prowl

Mung Dynasty posted:because there are enough straight white male main characters in every piece of entertainment and its good to have a change of pace when u get a chance It's this. Women characters lend themselves to cooler character concepts I think. If I'm playing as generic Hero Of The Story I'll probably just make an anxiety-ridden sadboy (myself), but if I want to do something cool like a nobleperson who got to where they are by stealing everything that isn't nailed down, having it be a dignified middle-aged gal is more interesting to me than recreating Garrett.

because jennifer hale can actually voice act, whereas mark meer sounds like he's reading lines for a hardware store commercial

it's a pretty cheap way of getting novelty out of an overused concept but I do it too so besides it's not like any RPG with a blank slate character really lets you get deep in the the player character's psychology or anything because the very fact that they have to be able to react to anything means the options are broad rather than deep

The Sharmat posted:jennifer hale is p cool but recently she's just FemShep in everything and it's getting a bit old Yeah she has a really wide range but she doesn't get to use it too often. I was really stoked whenever I found out she was Samus' "voice" in the Prime games because I always admired how the series strayed away from the awful, weirdly sexual damage noises a lot of games with female protags use. Every time Samus got hit in Prime it sounded legit like someone who just got impaled by some fuckin space hornet or something, it was dope. pyf games w/ non-sexualized female damage noises

not urban chaos then i watched a video of that and i must have blocked out the fact that it sounded like a porno from my memory when i played it back in 99

on the positive side Jennifer Hale didn't have to give a long monologue explaining the significance of a "thumbs up" and try to make it sound remotely interesting, so I guess she dodged a bullet there

I never played femshep so I only know her voice work in some renegade compilations I watched but I always found it funny that she sounds way more intimidating than maleshep... she has a certain barely concealed viciousness if that makes any sense

She's really really good at delivering lines in a way that conveys she's clearly pissed off but isn't raising her voice or anything like that. It's good.

all my elder scrolls characters are girls because girls are awesome and will kill you with a loving axe if you don't take them seriously.

I almost suspect that in Mass Effect they told Mark Meer to deliver his lines in a flat tone because they thought male players wouldn't want their protagonist showing any emotionAbandon posted:really it's really really bad. I mean even if they took out all the stuff that made Samus look like a weak character it would still have a really stupid plot and tons of giant monologues and infodumps recapping a scene that happened literally twenty minutes of gameplay ago. and that's just the plot, the gameplay is bad too

yeh jennifer hale is a legit awesome va. when i realised she was leah in diablo3 it really clicked. shes got the whole earnest adventurer thing going on. in ME she is proper tough as boots shep who will fuk you up if you cross her. in bioshock infinite she is aloof englishwoman.

wait that was her in bioshock infinite? that explains why she was my favorite character

yeah like has been said she actually has a pretty drat big vocal range that she doesn't normally get to use. Steven Jay Blum has a similar issue but even worse typecasting.

i am so sorry guys i said i had a LOT of shameful missing outs with games and i meant it. i see shittons of games mentioned that ive never touched/had the ability to play. i am p. saddened by it ok. i came from a poor family and we did not buy many games. i 100% completed bart vs the world on the NES as well as marble madness because we had so few games.

the only Metal Gear thing I've seen is that cutscene where the buff as gently caress super-senator beats up the anime ninja and I'm pretty sure there's nothing else the series could do that's better than that
