Time to vent: My own views on the world and people: Feminism Follow-up

I figured based on a recent event, I may as well make another post on modern-day feminism. This is the source and inspiration for this post.

Mighty Number Nope: The Dina Disaster


Now, what have we here? Apparently a person by the name of Dina has come on to the Mighty No. 9 development team to assist in the art direction. Now what's the problem with this? Watch the video and you'll see.

This woman has no connection with Mega Man nor is she a fan. She only played Mega Man X and that does not make you a fan. I've played more Mega Man games and I can't call myself a fan. I know more than her on the subject matter and I can't call myself a fan. But that's not really what this is about, though it's a valid reason why she's a problem within the circle of the people who were looking forward to the game. She first showed her dissatisfaction with the game simply because there were no female robots playable. Robots do not have a gender. They may look like a man/woman but they do not have a gender. Yes, you can refer to say, Roll as a female because she looks like a girl but the reality is she isn't an actual female. This is another case of feminists bitching and moaning about something they do not have an interest in and that's where the Mega Man fandom comes in. She only played X and said she was a fan of the series. Why are you coming on a team dedicated to making a spiritual successor to a series you did not play through thoroughly? I'm serious, she only got on the team because she was angry that there wasn't a strong female figure playable. And because she knows some people in the team, she's now the art director. The old guy supposedly got replaced.

Her art isn't even that good let alone consistent with the art that was shown previously. If she was so intent on having a female character playable, why not make your own damn game? You obviously have the 'artistic' talent to do the designs. Oh wait, she can't design a game. But she knows a design team. And suddenly she's with them, re-tweaking the designs to her liking, which means we're gonna get a female counterpart to the 'male' robot we were going to play as. Again, why are feminists butting in on things they have no interest in? Why are you forcing your views on people just because they doing something you don't like? People like Dina and that other one are ruining video games with their whining and insecurity.

Just watch the video InternetAristocat posted. He can discuss this topic better than I can. From the looks of it, people are already on her case for this. I hope the game itself doesn't suffer from her meddling. Mega Man fans already have enough bull to deal with as is.
