Thread 717293091

Would finding out the dev of your favorite indie game is a female change your thoughts toward the game in any way? Why or why not?

Would finding out the dev is a female make you like the game any less?

>>717293091 (OP)
No we are better than men anyway

>>717293091 (OP)
Well if you’re using Omari as a specific example, it’s a moot point. The dev’s confirmed male, no matter how many times the games fans screech otherwise.

>>717293215
I just used the pic because it's an indie game. She's confirmed female on her shop's page and in interviews. She does vtubing too.

>>717293091 (OP)
Only men with autism make the kind of indie games I play. I'm sure a few of them are made exclusively by troons, but never in a million years will a women make one

>>717293357
But what if? And troons don't count I meant like born bred and raised XX chromosome females.

>>717293091 (OP)
My only thoughts that would change is whether or not there's some weird woman fetish in play like that incest coffin game.

Who cares about devs?

>>717293091 (OP)
is that chris thorndyke?

>>717293091 (OP)
At most, I would go: "I knew a woman drew that."

>>717293091 (OP)
It would shape how I view the narrative / characters / themes, but nothing beyond that. It wouldn't change how I rate the game
>Why or why not?
I just wouldn't be able to stop myself from viewing the game's components with that added context. If it's good, it's good, but indies are almost always pretty unique to their creators and knowing about their lives / histories just helps dots connect

no, not really.

Women don't make, and can't make video games, at best you get visual novels with 0 choice.

>if hypothetically a woman did something that wasn't garbage for once would you treat them like they weren't garbage
men don't wake up and think haha wouldnt it be funny if we treated women like garbage for no reason? women just are garbage so they get treated like that. your """thought""" exercise is retarded and you are a disingenuous tranny.

>>717299001
Women are treated like garbage because women hate women more than incels do

>>717293091 (OP)
If it's a regular game I don't give a shit if it was developed by a man or woman. But if it's an eroge the developer being a woman makes it hotter.

No. I've been enjoying music and books made by women since I was a kid

>>717299079
Men hate men. That's why they literally kill each other more often than women killing men or men killing women by massive factors.

>>717293091 (OP)
Not really
A lot of my favorite vidya composers are women
Yes, real women

No, but it makes me horny

>>717299171
but unless you're interested in otome games or something similar that only a woman would ever make how can you be sure the dev is really a woman and not a man pretending to be a women to attract people like you?

>>717299581
So do I larp as a man after release or do I be honest about being a female or not

>>717300245
I'm not your lawyer.

>>717293215

schizo

>>717293091 (OP)
Why does this matter

I'll know.

I'd feel kinda' bad. Like I'm giving her money for bread and circuses and she's using it to buy condoms for Chad.

>>717300238
Women make rape doujins

>/v/ was one person all along

>>717293091 (OP)
Women that aren't vapid and actualy creative have a unique perspective that you can't get from something a man creates and I like that. Omori is a good example.

>>717300930
I tried playing it recently and got so bored 3 hours in that I quit it, don't know how you did so

>>717301117
>his good example is the shotacon version of yume nikki

>>717301217
I like turn based RPGs and the story interested me. The reveal was over the top as fuck imo, but the story of old bitter friends mending old wounds and helping each other move past the death of a close friend was really nice.

>>717301302
>the shotacon version of yume nikki
You're 100% correct, but even if you don't care for shotas, it's a really good game.

>>717301346
I like turn based rpgs to but the actual experience of playing the game is so bland and I don't feel it has enough charm/humor/intrigue etc to fill in the blanks.

>>717293091 (OP)
>oh shit he just accidentally killed her
>lets hang her lmao
Basil was a genuine psychopath. The fact that I can’t kill him and still get the good ending is gay

>>717301615
yeah but It's not really unique, is it? FMA might be a better example of a woman bringing something no man could.

>>717293350
She's also a pedophile, unironically

>>717301658
I thought the world was nice, and the music was pretty good too. I wish the emotion system was utilized more instead of it just being
>ok turn everyone to the emotion that counters the boss

>>717301726
Basil has a picnic basket full of issues, but he's a good boy, he was just trying to keep his friend from getting locked up in juvie or something.

>>717301784
>FMA
>something no man could do

>>717301879
Mods will help with that, like Reverie.
It doesn't change anything about the system, but it'll throw bosses at you that will boost their own mood or lock one of your party members into an emotion that they're strong against. Also adds a few extra status conditions related to emotions.

Na, fuck him

>>717302145
>fuck him
I agree, but maybe not in the same way.

>>717293091 (OP)
I have a strong negative reaction when people act as if something being made by a woman is meritorious or worthy of adoration in itself. I get that it's because women aren't as represented in the scene or whatever but it's just fucking annoying when the first thing that someone has to say about a work is that it was made by female hands. Women are just as capable of making dreck as men

I enjoy plenty of media made by women (mostly Japanese ones) but I cannot think of that many videogames developed solo by real female homo sapiens. There's G String which is allegedly made by a chick. It's an okayish HL2 mod desu

I dunno software development is just one of those areas that has a bigger appeal for male, autistic brains. autistic women exist but they usually fixate on different things.

>>717302562
I was more just worried because I've planned out a full thing I'm making, and if I end up having a audience I'd love to talk to them on streams and stuff. I'm just worried I'd be treated like a woman in a COD lobby or if I'd have to larp as a guy just so that I don't get harassed.

>>717303383
You'll be alright, the wider internet is perfectly accepting of women in creative positions. There'd probably be some friction if you tried to assert yourself in mostly male, unfiltered spaces like 4chan, but that's retarded regardless of gender. Just don't try too hard to be "one of the boys"

>>717293091 (OP)
Should I go back to omori and do the stay inside route? I already got the good ending

>>717293091 (OP)
I don't care about the people who make games, just the games.

>>717300238
>makes/commissions bunches of high-quality porn comics and games of her self-insert OC getting raped crazy-hentai-mindbreak-bad-end style by all sorts of monsters and creatures
I'm actually upset I will never meet this woman and marry her. I have never, ever felt that way before.

>>717302736
>autistic women exist but they fixate on different things

Exactly. Autist chicks are more inclined to create fanart or fanfiction, focusing more on the creative aspects of making something rather than the technical parts like game design or programming (but it's not impossible.) An autistic guy working with an autistic girl to make a video game would probably create something incredible. I have no idea if Toby Fox and Temmie Chang count but I imagine it would probably look something like that.

>>717304121
You get to fully 100% the headspace portion of the game and get access to a few unique bosses plus an endgame superboss. Ending is intentionally dull though

>>717304121
Yeah, the only thing you need to be wary of is that you don't want to talk to the creepy thing in Sweetheart's basement until after you collect all the best weapons for everyone.

>>717304121
Depends how much you enjoyed the middle of the game. I personally thought it dragged quite a lot, but I'm also not a huge turn based guy.

Alright I'll check it out this weekend. Might be comfy to stay inside and not socialize while doing the same thing in a game

>>717293091 (OP)
Never played the game but the shotas are SEXY!!!

>>717308397
You should play it, it even has different flavors to choose from.
>deadpan introvert
>kind hearted gardener
>genki
Also featuring!
>short tempered loli
>Onee-san
>Mr. Perfect

>>717293091 (OP)
Women are genuinely better at writing males then males are.

>>717293091 (OP)
It would just add someone to my rape list. I only rape women because I'm not a faggot.

why should it?
your gender is based on what you were born with down there, thats all it is, why should it matter for game dev
