Women ruined gaming again… Note: This is my first EVER scripted & researched video essay commentary video! Leave a like to let me know if you want more of this kind of video in the future!

This video is interesting insofar as it’s the creator’s first venture into video commentary. Due to the hype surrounding GTA6, the fascist/anti-feminist backlash bleeds into the mainstream and now people who had previously not been aware of the fascist/anti-feminist content on social media are exposed to it. [Most of the fascist/anti-feminist content creators she mentions are the usual suspects of fascist/anti-feminist content and have been at it for years.]

    Horizon such awesome story and game. Was also the fact that the female character was also asexual. I also found it one of my favorites.

      Aloy isn’t exactly ace, at least she’s definitely not aro. She ends up with an adorable crush on a character in the second game.

      Yea it was awesome, finding out how everything went to shit was so good and finding little stories of the past buried everywhere made the game that much better. Usually I skip a lot of that filler, because it’s usually just that, filler, but for some reason the filler in HZD didn’t feel like it and had me hunting for it, trying to piece together what had happened.

          Yea it was done so well with the lore, usually I just play the main story and call it a day, but hunting for the “wtf happened here” stories were just to good to pass up. It’s like it was this huge puzzle until it’s finally revealed.

            Yep it wonderful world I should go back and see it all again. I have the strategy guide and I am sure I missed something. Heck never did get that armor you find not far from home.
