When given the option, I pick female/woman presenting. When given the option, I pick black or poc. When given the option, I give them a killer outfit so they can slay all day.
As a straight white Jewish man, I like to imagine that I’m the quintessential oppressed citizen ready to take everything down with all I have. Anytime I kill a bad guy, a good guy, some random bystander, whatever, I tell them to shut the fuck up cuz I’m taking this all down.
At least, that’s how I justify it to myself. Maybe I just like strong black women and killing literally everyone.
I think I recognize your username and I think I’ve seen some good takes from you and you’re not just pulling a bit… but that’s kinda weird, lol.
Is there like a therapist you can go to in order to unpack your privilege/oppression mix and work through stuff like this? Asking for me, actually. (I could probably get it billed under trans stuff in my case though, lol)
Oh wow, I see what you’re saying. I’m doing a terrible job communicating tonight and my miscommunication is coming out as incredibly alarming dialogue.
You know, I’d like to try explaining my comment so that you can understand the missing context, but I don’t know how long of an essay I’d have to write to do that. Rereading that comment outside my own head for a moment, I see something that makes me think “holy shit, this guy is fucked.” So, apologies, I’ll try to do better next time.
The one clarification I’d like to make: I don’t like killing people. I don’t like gore videos or any of that. Horror movies are cool; real horror, not my jam. I like killing people/things in video games. The way I see it, a group of people went through a lot of trouble making me be able to interact with things in games and death animations, etc. I like to push every video game as far as I can to see how stuff will interact. The first time I booted up Cyberpunk 2077, I spent hours punching every object in the game to find out what breaks how with what audio and if I could get the game to crash by focusing on all the wrong stuff.
Anyway, game death and destruction=good; real stuff=bad. Sorry for the alarming comment. And to answer your question, yes, I see a therapist and think that everyone should get to talk to a therapist. Mental health is no joke. I appreciate you checking in on me.
Agreed. In games with a gender option, I just pick the one with the better VA.
Jennifer Hale did such a great job in Mass Effect.
I totally consider femshep the canonical Shepard, Mark is a solid voice actor too but Jennifer just does it so well, especially renegade imo.
You fucking jellyfish
