The Two Genders

You're viewing a single thread.
Developing from a pretty, young, "vulnerable" girl that needs saving (even though she's already tough as hell in TW3) into an older (chud translation: "ugly") main protagonist fighting back against the patriarchy has these fools spitting with outrage. Here's hoping CDPR doesn't give them an inch.
She aged naturally! Ugh, she was my hot sexy daughter in Witcher 3! Why would they... Have her grow up?! /s
Only thing I'm hesitant about is the actor, but I'm willing to give her a shot. Minor thing.
I doubt CDPR went into this without knowing how incels would react, and knowing they'll still buy it. After CP2077 with the whole customize genitals issue (that I'm sure most people had forgotten about), I don't think CDPR cares. They're Polish, I hope they laugh at our stupid ass "culture war" bullshit
Don't kid yourself, the culture war bullshit has been exported worldwide, all thanks to the internet. For instance, there used to be self-declared "LGBTQ-ideology-free zones" in Poland until February this year.
Please stop blaming those things on everything except people. I’m Polish. Polish people drink homophobia with their mothers milk. We didn’t need to import it from US or Russia (it’s still better than in the 90s). Average developer is a young male who predominantly votes for outright fascists. The reason CDPR appears progressive is because they calculated it to be more profitable.
About 50% of developers are 25-35. We skew young due to more and more people becoming programmers, that is, for the same reason that cobblers skew old, but not first vote kind of young.
And your source doesn't even make an attempt to correlate voting behaviour to profession, much less specialised field (programmer vs gamedev), not to mention that not every gamedev is a programmer, all in all not enough data to slander a whole profession. Do better.
The reason gamedevs skews progressive, btw, is because artists do.
But OTOH yes you're right in Poland's case it's not imported culture war BS it's Catholicism.
People 18-39 vote predominantly for Konfederacja (far right), KO (populist centre-right), PiS (populist right). I could dig some more precise sources with gender data but I think it’s telling that these are the results even with women in the mix. Coincidentally even among young women voting for far right is more common than for centre-left. I’m not mentioning left since their popularity is within a margin of error.
Yeah, artists skew left but you won’t find a more bigoted libertarian than a young polish programmer. Most of them are also pretty spoiled too because of the degressive tax system that favours them so much.

The temporarily embarrassed millionaires don't tend to be the ones going into gamedev: Our wages suck and being an indie is about as likely to make you rich as playing the lottery. I'd mostly limit that kind of behaviour to FAANG folks as well as people who should have studied business economics instead (or actually did) and probably can't code for shit anyway, in short: Techbros. They're about as toxic as your average corporate lawyer.
Assholes existing is a general feature of contemporary society, don't pin it on people understanding "there are 10 kinds of people" jokes.
Are there actually people complaining that she's ugly..? She literally looks like a model, just with some scars.
There are certainly some, but that bit was more about certain creatins on this planet treating any woman nearing 30 as detestable.
they will complain about any female face that isnt 'girlish' enough or any female costume that doesnt show off enough boob
