Mod note: This is a very difficult topic to quantify and has a very broad spectrum of issues. Topic creator posted in good faith to open up the dialogue. Try to move the topic forward instead of getting too bogged down on the opening questions. I've also updated the thread title as the main issue people seem to have a problem with is having woman as a political checkbox rather than fully fleshed out e.g female soldiers etc. were as far back as Skyrim. Female protagonists even further.
As proposed by moderation, let's have one thread for talking about all things feminism in games instead of ruining actual game talk in all individual threads
My two points:
1.) The way the female AC Odyssey hero fought that big male soldier looked off and unbelievable, simply because a petite woman like her overpowered her enemy by sheer strength. I'm ok with a woman beating a man, but it should be done better. Evie in Syndicate did it better.
2.) I wonder what would happen if a developer made a game where you play a man and all enemies are women which you brutally kill during game progression. *
mod edit: removed the TLoU2 comment as personal preference or hype for a title is irrelevant to the question.
