Plummeting interest rate

Right, because when Tomb Raider first came out on PS1 almost 30 years ago you could totally make out Lara's hot ass from the seven or eight polygons that formed her entire body.

I'm was right there with you a few years ago. My daughter plays, and I was sure to point out how it was catering to male fantasy and all that. But then I took her to some conventions she asked to go to. Do you know what I saw. More women then men.
And there was a space of computers that people could stop and play genshin and the like. Again more women then men. And the women were all playing genshin while the guys were playing games with more zoomed out interactions. It turns out that women are a big part of the reason for the intricate costumes on female characters and such. I still don't know what really to make of it all, but I do know my first impression of a game just objectifying women for male pleasure is not accurate. And don't get me started on the female cosplayers at these conventions.

If I have the choice, I like to have my protagonist as a woman because it's just you know different from the norm. Like I chose a female shepherd in Mass effect and now I can't see that character as anything but a badass woman.

Where did you get "create a character that looks as lewd as possible" from "hot girl ass?"

Except... It's not a woman, it is an object. It's not real.

Your inability to separate the real from the make-believe is more than a little sus.

I will be one of the first people in line to call out someone for objectifying women, but these are cartoon women. I really don't think it's a big deal. I really think it's okay to ogle a fictional ass. It's not my thing, but it doesn't hurt anyone. It's a victimless crime.

Xiangling (the character OP is playing) is (in)famously meta, since she is easy to get, easy to play and very overpowered. All National and International teams revolve around her, and even random teams splash her because she's just so good.

Found Anita Sarkeesian.

What if I liked to make my female character as funny as possible because that's what I find attractive, Is that objectifying them? What if I made them red headed for that reason, is that objectifying them? Objectifying is to treat a woman like an object. Liking a particular type of woman is your preference, not an objectification of women.

• Mutual interest
• Games often require talking and supporting each other well to beat the task at hand
• Probably into more games and hobbies together

Indeed, it's a win/win

Do people hook up on lemmy?

But it's only a booty call, a hookup, and he/she is upfront about it, why does it matter if we have common interests or not.

Depend on app friend

You know if someone is a 40 year old man or not

This was clearly about a hookup only, why does it matter what she's into... or what you're into?

I met my fiancée at a training thing for work. Everyone canceled except her her, me, and the teacher, so we had a lot of time to talk lol. We are getting married in a year and a half.

And games are made to keep you playing, not find partners.

Regardless, this was just a booty call, my experience is that they're great for that.

I would say the exact opposite, they're great for hookups.

Maybe it's the thing about some people being shy IRL (which I'm not), so making conversation is difficult for them.

Yeah, but the pic is clearly about a hookup only. Dating apps are great for that, you just specify what exactly it is you're looking for and you're golden within a week or two.

I have this friend, he litelarly didn't go out with us for 2 straight years because of dating apps. He once did some math on how many different hookups he had over those 2 years, it was well over 200. He's not handsome or anything, not particularly anyway, or hung or anything like that. He's just friendly, funny and outgoing. Women sink into that, just be friendly and funny and that's basically it.

It's not that hard really, even if you are not as outgoing and funny as him, you could still score once every 2 weeks or so... if sex is what you're looking for.

Oh, and the main thing, don't be a picker. Pickers go home emptyhanded.

My parents met because of a convention my dad organized for a show that was off the air for a few years at that point.

Alf?

Really? Had no idea to be honest.
