Why doesn't the gaming industry try to be more inclusive for women?

>Happy le wyminz day
>why is my game so shit that even EA outsells me whaaaa :(

Instead of game controllers, they should use their hands to use pots, pans, and knives, along with heat sources such as a stove or oven.

That happens to men too. We just can't cry foul about being men.

The small get stepped on. That's the way of the world, bros.

I don't care what she said, massive limp wristed faggot.

It is trying that, and it isn't working, because women only play Bejeweled and Farmville.

why not just enjoy videogames rather than use them as a vehicle for personal clout, like literally any other time attention-starved women join a male-dominated hobby

>marketing marketing marketing
Gonna level with you, I checked out the game and saw that it was generic slop. There wasn't a snowball's chance in hell that much anyone was gonna give a shit about the game unless you managed to dump RAID: SHADOW LEGENDS money into getting every youtuber in town to suck off your slop.

Yes, well done. She will arrive to your door in 30 minutes to have sex with you.
>I have a wife and 300 kids, incelchud
No, you don't. But don't worry, now will be your chance.

I would argue the industry is, in fact, too inclusive to women.

>>723920565 (OP)
>>723921221
I remember this game. I saw it on the front page before and assumed it was AI trash.

I mean what the hell do you expect? The world to just stop spinning for you? It sucks but there is literally nothing that can be done about that, other people exist, they have games to push as well.

You picked something that requires extreme luck to be successful at, not a good choice

It's already bent over backwards trying to be inclusive to them. Why is that not enough?

See but the french release a game on the same week as Oblivion remastered and not only Bethesda but the fucking Xbox accounts start messaging each other for synergy.

i didn't really understand the controversy around this post. it just was a person posting on their tiktok about being sad that their marketing campaign failed due to unlucky release timing. the "happy women's day, i guess" was obviously a joke. this isn't me commenting on the quality of the game (looks like AI slop) or on attempts to drive up engagement through mass marketing campaigns (i hate that shit, get it off my feed), i'm just saying i understand why she'd be upset
i did find the whole situation pretty funny.

Honestly why does board quality go down so hard when murican powerhour starts? It's all idpol and culturewar bait.
Thank God I'm heading to sleep but I wanted to check for a comfy vidya thread. Would report but I got banned last time I reported a thread about Charlie Kirk so have fun with your 200 reply culturewar shit.

even in this shithole of a site, in a thread with 30 posts, she manages to get white knight simp faggots to defend her

Top review giving it an actual review pointing out the game actually just kinda sucks and a lot of the positive reviews are extremely suspicious with very low playtimes and no other reviews.

I don't understand what this has to do with being a woman.

>>723921610
Unironically, there is a lot of overlap from /r9k/ and /pol/.
Newfags believe that 4chan isn't just a dumping ground of shitposting, but an active hatebox where being a normal person is grounds for harassment.
You can tell with the recent obsession these people have with trannies.

>>723921586
She could've done research on games that would be releasing in that time frame

>>723921221
Probably looked cooler in her head :(

EA deserves more respect than a woman
They at least provided value to the industry at one point in time

>>723921970
I was just reading through that and it seems extremely reasonable
that faggot ass woman should read this and take it to the heart

>>723922002
She did, you fucking moron. Were you born yesterday that you weren't here when EA out of nowhere injected dozens of old games into the steam machine?

>>723922098
>They at least provided value to the industry at one point in time
You weren't alive in the 90s.

EA has never provided any value ever. Literally check any youtube doccumentary about it. They were evil even in the 80s

>>723920565 (OP)
thats a man

I saw some product at the grocery store yesterday on an endcap that said "Women owned company!"
They can't even sell you a snack without fishing for sympathy.

Naturally I immediately shat on the floor, called the nearest customer a nigger, then jammed all of the carts together on the parking lot in a vain attempt at making a shopping cart killdozer.

She should've posted her game on /agdg/. Bitch didn't learn the true gamer marketing meta. Also, how do you fail this badly as a foid? There are near infinite ways of getting help and exposure for your mid product.

Talking like adults in somewhat respectful manner. Yeah, fun to shitpost and rage but the constant fucking idpol shit about literal whos or politics is so fucking tiring.
Do you act like this everywhere in your life? When I come to /v/, I drop my irl political views off at the door and other irrelevant stuff for vidya.
You don't shit where you eat.

Women don't like video games.

No need to, just being able to remember "Challenge Everything" being whispered in my ear proves you wrong.

I had the GREATEST marketing and RELEASE DATE and there was no possible way to know the release schedule of EA Games, the largest publisher in the US

the gaming industry is inclusive for women, didn't you notice its total destruction

>>723922426
You can get irl politics dropped off at the door on free access public forums when developers stop bringing their i politics into their games and charging for it. Not everyone would prefer to pretend the emperor has clothes on to avoid conflict or bad vibes. That's your choice.

>You don't shit where you eat.
You're problem is that you consider /v/ to be a form of nourishment.

Sometimes it can be cleaned to a perfect sheen. But it will always be full of shit in very short time.

Suspicious combination.

You posted a shitpost from 97, and the fact it was saved and reposted to this day was to laugh at his idiocy.
I think you might be very stupid and low iq, or at least socially handicapped.
Anyway this thread is shit, have fun whining about this and pretending you affect anything with this shitflinging. You can tell yourself how well you have spent all this time being angry.

her "game" was getting massively shilled on "women/comfy gamer spaces". there was some bleed out in normie gamer spaces as well. that's it, really
it was annoying and obvious as fuck that it was a shill campaign

>>723923129
Just so you know, you're just as much of a faggot as the woman is by using "spaces" like that

>>723921652
Genuinely what do these longhoused retards even think theyre accomplishing?

Are they so enslaved they cant bear to see a women getting shat on they just have to run to her aid?

If a game is genuinely good, and not "good for the price" or "good considering it was made by just 1 person" but actually good, then marketing or being on the front page of steam doesn't actually matter. You can't prove me wrong.

>>723921465

For the past 10 years the game industry has bent backwards for women and minorities and gaming has become shitter than ever. Entertainment in general has gone to shit because of the incessant pandering to women and minorities and gays and trannies... Movies and TV series even go as far as taking real life historical characters and they race/gender swap them.

>>723923230
Like 50 games release on Steam each day. You could make a genuine 10/10 and still get buried with only 200 people ever playing it

>>723923230
I've seen some good games that barely got any attention. But they were somewhat more niche.

>>723922426
Every single person online insisting theyre hecking normal is actually a deranged retard nobody likes irl.

Not that anon but can you guys list some examples of indy games that got overlooked despite being equal to or better than the huge headliners? I always hear this sentiment but I've yet to see any of these games that were supposedly deserving but overlooked match the quality of some of the zeitgeist games like e33, silksong, or hades 2. They're almost always just low tier newgrounds flash games that have audiences that reflect their low quality and depth.

Nope. Word of mouth would carry your game. Mediocre games dont cut it anymore, especially in an era where everyone has access to 40+ years of games. You've to stand out or get nothing.

>>723922925
It is still shared today because of what it proves. There were never a lot of mature people on the internet, little boy. The internet has always been where fragile big egos get to thrash around freely to its deepest desires.
It has been a shit hole since time memorial and it was great for that.

>>723923629
Felvidek was really good, one of my top games last year, but I didn't see much media coverage or talk about it here. Though looking at Steam it does have two thousand reviews so I guess it did pretty well after all for an extremely wordy historical comedy RPG. So my example's out the window and so am I.
