Ganondorf is a really great showcase of the skill differentials in Melee. It doesn't take a ton of practice do waveshine stuff as spacies or chain grab as Marth, but you have to be a fucking wizard to make Ganondorf move the way a player like Bizarroflame does.

1500 rating on Chess.com

Used to play the fianchetto English, then did King's Gambit, now mostly play Queen's Gambit

French Defense and Dutch Defense as black

When I was younger I played IRL at tournaments. Now I play online, though not as much as I used to.

This shouldn't be news at all, games have had God Mode cheats forever. This just formalizes it.

But writing about 'ending Git Gud' is sure to draw in anti-ableism woke twitter people in favor of it AND people like OP who thinks this means they "hate gamers"

See that's the thing. It's not as bad if those who do that are clearly portrayed as in the wrong. What the video is against is when there's unhealthy behavior against women as framed by the protagonists or the writing in general.
Yeah, they could certainly stand to do a better job.

Man, that is a punch-able hairstyle.

On topic: Yeah. I don't really know what there is to add after the title. The games dive heavily into male honor, sworn brotherhoods, the wielding of masculinity. Women, even when they're in positions of power like the Yakuza Huntress in 2, tend to be people in danger, caught in the crosshairs of the spiral of masculine violence, ultimately needing to be saved by the protagonists.

There's an in-depth hostess management minigame where you can date your workers in 0, which is played completely straight and never really questioned. It's pretty clearly tailored to men and any sort of 'fanservice' that could be more for straight women is played for laughs with the joke being a variant of mild homophobia. Tons of the fun silly stuff in the games are tailored to "the male gaze" as they call it.

AFAIK a lot of these incongruencies can be found in the actual Yakuza, where the political authority and power of women seems to be very limited.

This is a Tl;Dw video at 35 minutes but I guess I am curious what solutions he recommends besides "rely less on damsel plot devices." Yakuza 7's turn towards fantasy elements does also open the door to more playable active women. But I imagine the structure of the stories they tell so far have been limited by trying to imitate the macho fucked up culture of the Yakuza, and there will always be a trade off between representing more of the audience in healthy roles on screen and being realistic about organized criminals that are pretty horrible and, frankly, misogynistic, in real life.

That's just the top brackets, but besides that, games got into the brackets in the first place based on how many people wrote them in IIRC. But put RPGs aside, SMRPG is in no way better than GTA V, MGS2, or MGS3 lol.

Games like Dead Cells, Hollow Knight, Celeste. I just can't bring myself to enjoy them. I know this is a gamer mortal sin, especially in the eyes of older gamers who grew up with them, but I had to get this off my chest.

There are some exceptions. I like Kirby and Smash Bros. I kinda like New Super Mario Bros. I enjoyed the Mega Man 11 demo.

But the vast majority of side scrollers just don't do anything for me.

Redskin has a history of being a pejorative.

As far as I know, Scandinavians have never been the subject of significant racism in the United States, while Native Americans were systematically removed from their land and killed.

Viking also refers to a specific, identifiable culture that no longer really exists, while 'Redskin' is as broad as all Native Americans.

Like imagine if there was a sports team called the Kansas City Blacks and their team mascot was a mockup of Mansa Musa.

Except instead of 'Blacks' it was a word that had official usage in the past but can also be a slur.

Obviously that would be fucked up
