Grummz is the guy who used an nine year old on his collage about how western devs are making video games less sexy.

Not going to lie: I don't really give a crap about what he says at this point.

We have a ginger kid I went to school that in his mid 20s he very publicly had a steep mental decline and now he posts about how much he hates white men all day long because he has a Hispanic last name and skin as white as the driven snow. Curly ginger hair. Everything. Freckles. Everything. Totally hateful person.

Video game character.

For real life children, look at where he did the interview about his game Firefall. The fact that even though we're allowed to name drop porn sites now but I'm still not going to say it should tell you all you need to know.

Yes: https://twitter.com/Grummz/status/1774086361194320376

The middle, second from the top is the character Billie from Wolfenstein 2 and is nine years old.

I like how several of them are Debra Wilson.

As in, straight up "this character is based on Debra Wilson's likeness."

Really blowing that dogwhistle.

And one of them is Rosario fucking Dawson.

Ya.. Screw that guy, Almost all his posts are raging against "WOKE CULTURE", Screaming about how all women in media have to make his dick hard or simping over the jiggle physics in Stellar Blade, Not to mention he was and still is pro Gamergate

Its also telling that his profile proudly touts his Game design Credits for when he was in blizzard, which if i recall he hasn't worked for them for almost 2 decades or so and every studio he has worked at or tried to create since has been an absolute failure

Beauty =/= Sexuality

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/e/ea2d6cc0.jpg

And yes most of those characters are hideous.

But seems like he's misrepresenting with some of them. If you're going to say a lot female protagonists are ugly than don't be disingenuous and use examples that are white lies.

Top row circled in green is the girl from Apex Legends severe misrepresentation. She's actually very attractive.
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/3/3c2c6865.jpg

And in the bottom left Senua, which while not a stunner, usually looks better than that and her face is due convey emotion really well.

Circled in green, they're just flat out wrong that character looks pretty.

Lets be real: I'm not going to argue semantics with a guy who when asked if they have ever made a black character replies "I can't see why I would. I want them to be attractive."

Broooo. You're being severely disingenuous.

They were asking if I'd ever make a black character in a character creator and I said no basically because I don't identify with being black. I'm autistic so sometimes I think things in my head and don't actually say them out loud or write them.

I usually just make a basic attractive chick but I don't know where you could have misconstrued that as I don't think black people aren't attractive after literally JUST making a post saying I disagreed with grummz image and pointed out what I thought were two attractive black women in his image.

Stop being dishonest.

Stop being dishonest.

The fact that your problem with the image is that you happen to disagree with Grummz on a few of his choices and not the fact that there's a child on there or the weird undercurrent of racism because most of the characters are minorities just really says everything we need to know.

You're trying to redirect.

Ellis just tried to make the claim I that I don't find black women attractive, while responding to the post.....in which I said *Lifeline, a black character was very attractive, that's a direct contradiction.

Mental gymnastics much? Jesus.
Just stop.

* - In addition to whoever that was I circled in red.

Nah pointing out that you're outright ignoring the child in the image and the undercurrent of racism in the image to go "oh wait the problem is that he doesn't agree with me about these characters being hot!" isn't redirection it's a statement of fact, one you don't have the spine to confront.

I already chose to criticize the post, just because I didn't criticize it in the way you want doesn't mean I'm somehow spineless.

My evaluation was that he was willing to make misrepresentations in order to suit his narrative.

Would have preferred you to say hey deoxxys I'm sorry I blindly agreed with Ellis but what about x,y and z?
