Thought this was an interesting article and decided to share. It's an issue that's always been floating around and reoccurring on the internet. It's also one I don't believe I've been directly influenced by. I do remember when I did my text LPs on my old account, people automatically assumed I was a male gamer, which is fair as that's the stereotype. I just didn't tend to correct them. People can think what they want to. I'm not going to go crusading around starting fights and trying to prove girls and women play video games. I just figured that it was implied. If it's not, than it should be. The intelligent people know this, so I figure there's no need to shove it down people's throats. I play games and record them simply to exist in the medium. I show that I play games (with varying degrees of success) and I have fun, so I'm not too concerned about what anyone has to say about that.
Overlord 1 is completely uploaded and I will be moving on to Overlord 2 shortly. I have about 1/3 of Overlord 2 recorded and nearly that much encoded. The only problem is that the files are rather large, so I will be uploading in 20-30min segments and no larger. After this is completed, I will be moving on to Dark Souls and Alice: Madness Returns, as I have had requests to play those games. I had a God of War request as well, but I do not own a capture card at this time.
(And yes, I am aware that Half Life and Penumbra remain unfinished. I will get to those. Promise =D)
I'm scared of girls. I think if I was to ever come into contact with one, I'd get cooties. It's probably a good thing the likelihood of that is zero.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the anguish that awaits you.
