Those long posts don't cover that red neck boy
I wrote about the game twice before, but ill just add to this with one other scene they went tits up with:This is an oldie but here is Resetera getting triggered by Valkyria Chronicles 4. Scroll to the bottom of the image for the good stuff.
Gotta love "dismissing concerns about female sexualization" as a rational.
Because in real life, I'm scared to death of someone being sexier than me.
One of the characters in the game is constantly making inappropiate remarks to a lady character. His friends warn him not to do this as he may face punishment. ERA users claim objectification (And we should consider their feels) and forfeit any context to this matter. What's worse, the lady in question is perfectly capable of holding her own.
The thing about VC4 and ERA's response to it: Its literally purposefully attempting to cause a scene. This is what happens directly after the NPC talked about checking out her behind and subsequently grabbing the ladies ass:
The rest of the group cheers her for doing that. Hell, the group already premonitioned in advance to the guy that he better not do that. This is completely lost on ERA and The Names.
So what happens is that ERA looks at that scene and actually stops caring right at the moment when that NPC's hand grabs her ass, and subsequently ignores the aftermath (The consequence) of the NPC doing that gesture. They are deliberately ignoring consequences to the action made, thus deliberately ignoring and even lying about the context, to advance a narrative.
Its misleading AF and clearly the intent is to advance the ''We hate everything that involves women being seen as attractive'' narrative.
But when one veteran user literally points this shitty behavior out, he gets served a permban for ''User Banned (Permanent): Downplaying concerns of sexism and harassment as "outrage"; history of severe infractions.''
With the way ERA is drooling over Bowsette, they are in direct violation of their own rules. After all, they are objectifying a female character there, even when Bowsette is fictional.
That kind of irony never gets lost upon me: ERA acts in full outrage when a virtual fictional character stands up for herself when being objectified in their eyes, but it is totally okay with drooling over a virtual fictional character being placed in soft-erotic situations and which gets totally objectified by Mario/Luigi/Bowser.
