My favorite male fantasy that games allow me to realize is that of becoming a successful man despite not executing any meaningful work.

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

I just want to play games where i am not a toxic shit head and still get to do violence

Yes, games about my instinctual longing for the mines. ⛏️

I know this is a meme but I’m really really hoping that top line is from a skit or something

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 92 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nope. It was a BuzzFeed thing about a very very feminist person talking about how gaming only appeals to men. I am feminist, and the piece still got a massive eyeroll from me. They cherry picked a few things and said because of those things gaming was only catering to men.

Worse is that they didn't tackle any actual issues going on in gaming. Just lame ragebait.

IIRC one of the examples was an NPC in GTA 5 making a sexist comment. In GTA 5, which is of course a parody of modern culture, completely out of context.

Ugh so typical buzzfeed clickbait slop then. Thank you for explaining. /gen

Guess I’ll go back to putting up with all the male fantasy in the cat adventure game I’m playing 😂

"This is why I hate RomComs, it appeals to the female fantasy."

(We can both say ridiculous things and be judgemental, or we can just let people like what they like. Not everything has to be "for you," nor "for everyone.")

This game is actually great. I played through fully twice, it's rather short. Highly recommend if you like digging a hole and upgrading your hole digging ability.

[–] ipkpjersi@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 days ago (2 children)

What does it say about me that I'm actually interested in buying and playing this game?

[–] logos@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago

You need a bigger yard. Or a better shovel.

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

It says that you want to experience life but wont/can't sacrifice the physical investment that it involves.

Idk 🤷‍♂️. I'm not a doctor.

[–] kerrigan778@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I loved it but needed it to be longer. I want to dig more hole.

[–] Alk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago

The mark of a good game.
