i'm gonna say it AGAIN
if your game only allows for a male playable character, but ESPECIALLY a cis white male
it's bad. it's a bad game. you've made nothing original. it's boring. bad bad bad
in the same breath:
mary sues aren’t real
men can be OP and survive anything and win everything and no one cares
let women be the same way
if a video game brings you more anger/frustration than joy/fun
consider not playing it tbh
i should try to group my video game tweets better
me, hearing about a new video game for the first time: can i be a girl?
make video games easier thank u
also maybe less violent ? i’m tired of fighting.
some dude: "it doesn't matter what gender they are, so why are you complaining"
if it "doesn't matter" then: Let Me Be A Girl
if it was less hard i would have finished it
is a feeling i have about many video games
if it was less hard i would have finished it: a list of games i have never completed/beaten
donkey kong 64
super mario 64
ocarina of time
majoras mask
banjo kazooie (& 2)
star fox
fuck there’s one that has cute little furry ewok things you’re trying to save??? idk it’s a space fps type thing
paper mario
really Any nintendo 64 game lmao
prey
breath of the wild
skyward sword loz game on wii
if it was less hard i would have finished it: a list of games i have never completed/beaten
ooh more:
lotr game ? i think fellowship of the ring but i’m not sure on xbox
lmao one of the spongebob games on gamecube or s/t? but that was also partly disc issues
oddworld munch's oddysee
others probably
i am 100% a Fake Gamer Girl i have never finished a single video game sorry
i made this my #PS4 profile description btw
(but no "sorry" bc im not actually sorry)
me, while my boyfriend plays #Apex with his boy friends: babe there’s a gold thing over there. no, to your right. you didn’t pick up that ammo. babe there was a backpack Right there... well then ping it for them.
also me when my boyfriend plays #Apex: tell (friend 1) i say hello. how is (friend 2)? babe. *taps shoulder so he removed headset* what are you talking about?
gamer girl? more like #GamerGirlfriend
using motion controls and timed puzzles are my least favorite part of any game
game companies owe me personally 5% of profits for every game that features a woman prominently on advertising or cover art but no playable female characters
not even stardew tbh lmao
@gingerrroot One I've been waiting for that may be of interest:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/593150/Ooblets/
Farming, little friend critters, and dance offs when the little friend critters face off.
@gingerrroot YES PLS
I try so hard to make games that aren't predicated on violence
@gingerrroot that is fair and valid. Completion is a bullshit metric. What matters is whether you enjoyed it.
heh, this is why my wife wouldn't let me arrange the office with me behind her vs. her behind me XD
(my concept of "situational awareness" is radically different from hers and I give very bad field feedback, I suspect)
@gingerrroot people finish stardew??????
@lapis i don’t know tbh
if it was less hard i would have finished it: a list of games i have never completed/beaten
@gingerrroot oh my god i'm so glad i'm not the only person who failed miserably at super mario 64
well, i have super mario 64 ds but it's nearly the same game
i picked it up because "it's famous and it looks super fun!"
nope. i'm utter shit at it. i didn't grow up with video games so i lack like... basic video game literacy i feel like.
@gingerrroot ummm apparently i didn't boost this when you first posted it????? wtf
@gingerrroot i agree with this post but also super mario odyssey is my favourite game of all time, what does this mean
@00dani my favorite games are the legend of zelda games so idk what to tell you
@gingerrroot you can and do play as a girl in those games tho 
@gingerrroot i suppose you can play as cappy (a trans girl) in mario odyssey so that makes sense 
@gingerrroot have you seen Abzu? In it you are a swimming Android who explores various marine biospheres. There are some intense moments, but you don’t kill anything. Very meditative.
me, as a video game vlogger or something: so, tell me about your game...
some game dev: well *talks about how it's made, the stor, cool technological and graphical things, the hard work of the team, etc*
me: can i be a girl?
sgd: well, no--
*camera pans towards me looking at it with my head tilted and a sweet smile*
me: 0/10
