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

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 😂

I mean, first of all, how dare you.

Yet, oddly enough, their legitimate journalism arm (Buzzfeed News) was actually pretty great.

Hey, how dare you mention a cat adventure game without naming it? Think about us others who want to fulfill our male fantasies that way!

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Cattails: Wildwood Story. I’m on my second playthrough of it actually!

[–] GoodLuckToFriends@lemmy.today 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Cat Quest?

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Cattails: Wildwood Story but I have also played Cat Quest 2 and it was very good!

It isn't.
