Also, ironic how you seem to attest the racist caricature in Unga Pongo, which is obviously horrible, but then use "mentally challenged" as an insult to describe these innocent characters with no other indication of them being what you claim, aside from your clearly ableist prejudice. Apparently you think wearing a helmet is an indicator of being mentally challenged, but I think you missed the fact that this is a racing game where the pen pen they slide down mountains and slam into stuff? and you assume everyone agrees that a single hermaphrodite character is a reason in itself not to like the game. Fun fact, basically every octopus is a hermaphrodite. Yes, in real life. That should not be a bombshell in any way, shape, or form, yet it's apparently too much for your smooth brain to handle. And a tasteful jab at blind-deaf people to top it off. This review deserves no respect. Even aside from all that, you clearly didn't unlock any of the additional content which can be done by simply playing the game... which you were too triggered by an octopus to even do. Try again asshole.

Sure, it's a violent sexual act, but it's not portrayed in a sexual or sexualized manner in the game. The moment that this happens to Lara is decidedly NOT "sexy" (except to people who probably need to seek psychological help) and I'm pretty sure it's not intended to be. In fact, as I say in the article, that such a situation would occur at that moment among those villains is actually––through a real-world lens––highly likely. To ignore the likelihood of that threat in that situation at that moment, I feel, would be as much of a disservice to Lara Croft and the world Crystal Dynamics has created for her as having Lara run around in a string-bikini and anti-gravity boobs. The situation (as it's presented to the player) is a threat, it is scary, and it makes it clear who the bad guys are and what kind of person Lara is. To use creative writing terminology, it's a character moment, an action that helps define to the audience what kind of person the protagonist is without simply telling us that "Lara is a strong-willed and capable woman." <br /><br />It's also important to note that Tomb Raider is an M-rated game, meaning that more brutal elements can be used within the context of the game. Were this a T-rated or A-rated game, I definitely wouldn't want nor expect this rape threat to be present. But, being an M-rated game, it's persistent with the game's context and increases the verisimilitude of the game and the character; therefore (in a sense), the moment SHOULD be in there because to ignore that threat (as I said above) in an M-rated game that has a gritty, "realistic" setting would be a disservice and, perhaps, ignorant on the part of the creators. <br /><br />This kind of goes back to the KGB radio episode in which this is discussed (episode #49, I believe). Chris brings up the situation that developed around "Ellen", Ellen Degeneres' sitcom. After Ellen came out to the public, her character in the show came out as well. After that, the show kind of becomes about being gay rather than being a simple situation-based comedy as it was before. What we see in that is the other end of the objectification spectrum. When they decided to focus on the character's homosexuality rather than focus on her as a person. It focused on what made her different instead of showing us how she is no different from everybody else. And because of that the show largely became hard to relate to because she stopped being a human being and became an idealistic avatar.<br /><br />Now, I'm not debating whether this was a good or bad move––perhaps making homosexuality so in-your-face was what the world needed––I'm simply saying that, in terms of storytelling, it harmed the show and the character more than helped. It's not that she couldn't be gay, it's that no one person is defined by a single attribute. By focusing on that single attribute, the character became flat and, to an audience, uninteresting. In contrast, look at the success of Ellen's talk show. She's gay and out and proud (as she should be) but it's not a show about Gay. It's about Ellen, who happens to be funny, interesting, clever, interested in many things, knows a lot of famous people, and in tune with what people want to see and also gay.<br /><br />And that's where Tomb Raider gets it right: Lara Croft is a person, first and foremost, defined by more than the fact that she's attractive. The game REACTS to her being young and attractive, but it's not ABOUT that.<br /><br />Great, I went off and wrote a sequel to the article. Long story short, I'm glad you liked the article.D.

The anger lay in the fact that because Lara is a woman, then the possibility of sexual violence exists, whereas had Lara been a male character there would be none of that. <br />It basically boiled down to, woman character equals something sexual of some sort at some point in the story, because you know... boobs and such.<br />-<br />For one, I cannot particularly agree with this point of view although I understand where that's coming from. Imagine Marcus Fenix getting looked over in such a manner and you'll get all sorts of uncomfortable outrage. (and validating your point, I am a female gamer and can relate and sympathise with every protagonist I have ever played in a game, of which the majority are men, gender is a minimal barrier to overcome when given good characterisation and story development).<br />-<br />Ok, my comment is long, thanks for writing it anyway. The gende debate in gaming is bewildering and somewhat tiring and its nice to just have a good critical non angry article about it.<br />-<br />cheers<br />Tarirayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13142797883757620343noreply@blogger.com
