What game character represents true masculinity to you?

Video-games are toys for adults. If you're seeking masculinity in video-games, you've already failed at masculinity. Video-game heroes don't need to be "role models". They just need to look and act cool. Role models are for children who need the world simplified through the lens of their action figures before they develop into real men and women. They're training wheels

This is self evidently untrue. If you ever feel admiration for anyone that's you taking them for a role model. You don't suddenly stop tracking what winners do when you "become an adult". Frankly all you're doing is revealing your own immaturity, that you think you look "grown up" by LARPing as a sigma lone wolf or whatever

Astolfo from FGO. Legitimately saved my life coming across him, he taught me that It's fine to be that kind of man like him. Masculinity is a spectrum and just because I don't fit in with what most serbs are like (I'm serbian) doesn't mean I'm not a man. What makes a man a man is something deeper.

Not true. A role model is someone who makes such an impression on you that you consciously try to replicate them. Like your parents. If you were a pathetic beta and play RDR2, your admiration of Arthur Morgan will not improve you at all. You'll still be a beta male, because only a beta male would ever model himself after a fucking video-game character

I would say it's a matter of degree, so that if I went with your definition, a role model is someone who one has significant admiration for. I would dispute that it is necessary that there is any consciousness of the fact that someone is one's "role model", so that you could be trying to imitate without being aware of what you're doing, like young children will.

>>717257145 (OP)
Copying my post from an old thread

"True masculinity" is having high emotional intelligence and these characters lack this quality.

Protagonists with high emotional intelligence:
>Lee Everett
>Solid Snake
>John Halo (especially in Infinite)
>Adam Jensen
>Ethan Winters
>Mackenzie Carver
>Sam from Until Dawn

One thing I noticed while coming up with this list is the protagonists not falling under the killing machine trope where they kill thousands of people with no remorse. John Halo is an exception and there's a case argument to be made for the elites but he's a soldier in a war that threatens all of humanity, not being an outlaw who refuses to get a job or a post apocalyptic survivor.

>John Halo is an exception
Not really. He only kills Covenant, who are literal inhuman monsters who all deserve to die. He's as morally guiltless as Doomguy. You can also easily play Snake and Adam as murdering psychopaths but, again, most players don't. But overall I agree that masculinity = high emotional intelligence, and those characters generally embody that, or at least have the potential to

Have you seen their reaction to a commercial that basically just said “look at how hot Sydney Sweeney is”? That’s how (many) women react when it’s even implied that they aren’t already beautiful queens and there might be a feminine ideal.

>>717262573
Cavill and Hemsworth weren’t just jacked, they were also handsome. Genetics absolutely play a role in both male and female beauty. It being achievable isn’t the point—if you strive to look better and put the work in, you will look better than you are now. You might not have moviestar looks, but through pushing in the direction of the ideal, you will have improved and become a better you.

>>717262818
Because it's not just about muscle it's about facial features, how tall you are, body proportions etc. even muscle growth is genetic, most men won't get big muscles unless they take steroids and shit.

>>717262573
>masculine beauty (i.e. muscle) is actually achievable
Nobody cares about muscles except fags, male beauty is height, frame + face. All shit you're born with and can't change except some risky and costly surgeries. Add the hoeflation thanks to DA's to that and it's over for most men.

Genetics still matter for men. Muscles won't fix an ugly face, a bad hairline or your height. Genetics are also arguably mattering less for women since men are being conditioned to dislike attributes associated with feminine beauty like big breasts. That also lends into women not having to work as hard if they have decent genetics; all they have to do is not be fat and groom themselves while men have to spend time working out.

You keep hearing shit like this and you connect the dots. on paper, Epstein runs a hedge fund. The speculation is that he would get people to invest in it by blackmail schemes. The genius is that it's win-win ultimately: because the Hedge fund makes the investors rich anyways.
