Actually, Steve Harris is a massive, narcissistic cunt and will probably really get behind the idea that Shelly Harrison is a ripoff of his name.

Who the fuck cares?

The people who develop these games care a great deal about identity politics, and spend far more energy obsessing over "inclusivity" than I ever have pointing out their shenanigans. If I cared to, I could fill this thread with thousands of social media posts written by fat women (who don't even play computer games) complaining about the lack of brown-skinned people in Kingdom Come: Deliverance, if you're really interested in who the fuck cares.

Anyway, you should care, because these retarded faggots are destroying the industry. Every GIRL POWER! project is now heavily suspect. There have been apologists just like you smacking your virtual lips and insisting that THESE PARTICULAR developers haven't been compromised by SJWs since the day I registered here at the Codex, but as each year passes, more and more dangerhairs turn up in studio group photos even as their games turn to unplayable garbage.

So the one example you give isn't even a game development studio but just about retarded journos?

I can see where your concern and criticism comes from since there are quite a few companies both old and new that do follow that trend unfortunately but I think most people don't give a shit in this case because this is a fairly small studio who haven't even fully release one game yet and what people have played in regards to the female character boils down to "She's sort of bland" than "teh Ess Jay Doubles at it again" all the while most seem generally pleased with almost every other aspect of the game as a game made on Build Engine. Add in the fact of how 3D Realms lost the Duke license a while ago this just seems a lot more of a case of devs making do with what they have than appealing to some kind of non existent feminist fandom and so far none of the marketing has pandered towards that at all from what I've seen.

As annoying as aggressively SJW devs and journalists are the folks like yourself who obsess over it and post about it all the time, even in a thread for a game with ZERO sign of this issue, are just as annoying. The two groups deserve each other, just endless, endless whining and grievance.

This is the first time I've posted about it in three months anywhere on the Codex. Head-in-the-sanders like you simply don't want to hear about it at all, thus any occasional mention becomes "all the time." Meanwhile, the phenomenon spreads and grows.

In actuality, I in fact do try to avoid bringing it up in threads that don't merit it. While it may be true that the female protagonist doesn't have any lines suggesting all cis white men should be put to death, and while Badass Chicks have been a subversive trope in fiction/games/comics for ages, Bombshell/Shelly is quite clearly a female analogue of Duke Nukem in what is definitively a spiritual sequel to DN3D. That makes her an Affirmative Action Girl, regardless of your politics and whether or not you want to admit it.

And? I still DIDN'T READ LOL most of your post. I'm not even sure why you screenshot'd what I wrote, instead of simply quoting it like a normal human being would (I guess I'm supposed to be rushing right over to your "Wall" or whatever the the fuck it's called, to delete all evidence of my dastardly deed consisting of one whole reply to your autistic screeching). I don't care about retarded Culture Wars nonsense anymore, because both "sides" have shown themselves to be equally batshit insane.

A pox on both your Houses.

The reason this game exists is that 3D Realms decided to contract some modders to develop a nostalgic spinoff game to promote their crappy Bombshell action-shooter game.

The reason that game exists is that they found out that they didn't have the rights to Duke Nukem.

So, not exactly a clear narrative of somebody who went "Let's make Duke Nukem 3D, but with a strong woman for modern audiences!"
