They are so out to lunch and they are obtuse on purpose. No one cares if they play a female character, when it is well written and not done to shove a lesbian agenda woman power thing down people's throats. Some perfect examples of female character leads in video games long before the bat shit insane radicals went full retard.
1) Jade - Beyond Good and Evil (Fucking 2001)
2) Samus in Metroid (lol) in 1986.
3) Eve - Stellar Blade
4) Lara Croft - Tomb Raider
5) Kena - Bridge of Spirits
6) Aloy - Horizon Zero Dawn
7) Jesse - Control
8) Amicia - Plague Tale
9) Clementine - Walking Dead
10) Bayonetta - Bayonetta
11) Amanda Ripley - Alien Isolation
I could name a ton more. What do these all have in common? Well written female protag's where literally NO ONE bitched about it and loved the games. Why? They aren't trying to shove mental illness down your fucking throat.
It is THAT simple.
Now let's contrast this with Ghosts of Woketeilezzie.
1) Atsu - voiced by a lesbian Antifa fuckstick who cannot keep their mouth shut on social media, supports a domestic terrorist organization trying to uproot amrrican government to promote marxism, with a character in feudal Japan mowing down an entire countryside of male samurai in a time period where that never happened with contextual obligations to be historically accurate where in the end two lesbian lovers parent a child together. In 1603 AD.
Gee. Wonder why this bombed while at the same time no one had issues with the above 11 mentions. IT'S A CONUNDRUM!
Fucking morons.
