Technically they only said the next GTA, not GTA6.

Hoping there's a female character, though there probably won't be. Would be cool to have a male and female character.

I dunno. "The first female X" feels kind of played out.

You do realize this argument is basically just saying "Female main characters feel played out," right

Maybe because of GTA Online you get to create your main character in this one.

I reckon if they go for Vice City again they could cover a big portion of Florida in one map.

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

I agree, they should skip straight to the third or fourth female X.

I wouldn't mind a return to the classic cash for every mission completed model. Only getting cash for heists in 5 was kinda crap tbh. Especially since you could screw them up and get less cash.

GTA feels particularly male oriented imo. Not everything has to represent both sexes equally.

No, it isn't.

It really is, because "the first female x" in practice very commonly just equates to... A female protagonist. So by saying it's played out, you're, in effect, saying female protagonists are played out.

I mean, look at the context you used it in: In response to somebody saying they hope GTA6 has a female protagonist. What else could you possibly mean in that context?

How is GTA particularly male oriented compared to stuff like Assassin's Creed or Saint's Row?

You can already make female characters in GTA online too, so what makes the single player different?

I'm a middle aged man. Back in the 80's, female firsts were a big thing and I heard about them all of the time. But then I kept hearing about them, over and over again. I've reached a point where firsts don't have the same excitement that they had 40 years ago. If there's a female protagonist, I know I'm going to hear about it being a first as if it were Sally Ride or something.

Oh if it's about the marketing side of things, I can kinda see it. It's like Disney's 'first openly LGBT character on screen' thing that they kept doing for the last decade.

I can get that, but then... Just ignore the marketing? That seems like a poor reason to be against something having a female protagonist.

As long as this first ever Female MC is well written then it's all good.

If the writers produce something like Samus from Other M tier...then I'd rather have another generic mute.

Ideally I want a good Asian-American MC or Asian raised in a western country, feels like the only good one is Wei Shen.

Imagine if it's something like "Chinatown Wars 2" and we get a backlash similar to Metroid Prime Federation Force

Not really. Like Aloy in HZD isn't the first female x, she's just a female protagonist. Since GTA has been around for awhile it's a little different. At least, I think that's what he means

Theres no difference, given the context of the topic. Being against having a first female protagonist in GTA means youre against having a female protagonist in GTA. Being against having a first female protagonist in any series means youre against having a female protagonist in that series. Thats my point. Sequels get made a lot more than original, new series do, so in practice, if youre against adding a female protagonist to any series that doesnt have one, youre effectively against female protagonists in general moreso than not.

Im not saying every female protagonist is a first female protagonist, Im saying every first female protagonist is a female protagonist, so if youre against a first for a series, you might as well just say you dont want a female protagonist in that series. Its not the first part that truly bothers you, its the female part.

I mean if GTA keeps continuing forever and they never do a female protagonist it would be weird as hell. You've got to do one sooner or later. No reason it can't be the next one

Same idea as Doctor Who. There's no reason why it can't be, so if you refuse that's a way worse position to take than never doing it.
