Simps will always run the show with regards to gaming. It’s the only thing they feel they have control over. So when a game doesn’t have a 15 year old waifu with double D’s, it’s instantly trashed.

Except they don't have any control over it and just whine loudly. At this point, it wouldn't surprise me if a game becomes popular because the makers push back against these losers.

They have enough control to cause a lot of developers to either not have women protagonists at all, or to make them supermodels just to cater to the neckbeards.

We’ve only just now gotten to the point where gender is becoming irrelevant in games. We’re decades away from the simps allowing normal looking female protagonists in “their” games without protesting/boycotting.
