So this is the original post by that guy who was accusing DA2 of not catering to the straight male gamer. He also had a bit of a response to Gaider's response, a part of which was openly admitting he finds homosexuals disgusting.
He once again goes on to say that games should cater specifically to "straight male gamers" alone because that is supposedly the largest demographic of gamers (despite the fact that around 40% of gamers are female while he claims 80% are straight and male.)
Time for a silly quote or two! :
"The Internet - Where Men are Men, Women are Men, and Children are Federal Agents!" -Anonymous gamer
"GIRL is an acronym for: Guy In Real Life" -Anonymous gamer
Though, It is sad to say there are such narrow minded people out there that can't see past their own surroundings, I've given some thought as to why this is, and while I'm not gay, I don't see what the problem is with who someone finds attractive or falls in love with. I believe this can be attributed to people who are constantly from youth forced to be subject to psychological conditioning and idealization that homosexual activity is as taboo as beastiality and people actually grow to believe that bullshit.
Sin, I have to agree with you here, because it is disgusting how ignorant people can be. In my opinion as far as girl gamers, that they're being looked at as not counting (or depicted in a vast minority) in the gaming populace because there are many geeks out there who cannot bring themselves (or may have trouble bringing themselves/are socially inept) to approaching females because a vast majority of the "boys" and "men" playing are probably seeking escape from either hurt from women (hell, even I do it for that reason) and other immediate life problems/stresses. It just may be an internet phenomenon that has spiraled too far out of control, or (last but not least,) you have your so many men who try to pose as girls to get special treatment, that then cause other men get overzealous about it because they've fallen prey to this scam before, and overgeneralize.
I hope I'm being fair in my speculation and do not mean to offend anyone with my ideologies.
SUCH A SHIIITTY TROOOLL POOOOST (Also your avatar's animation sucks)
-_- That hurts. I thought I was really trying to add something constructive. I thought we were past this
