Why does almost all "Female Protagonist"-games suck??
I mean, if they wanted to promote Female Protagonists to "prove that females are just as capable", then WHY OH WHY do they only make games that suck so extremely much both in quality and in story!?!
Isn't that counter-productive to the fight that Feminists wanted in the gaming-community??

Care to give some examples? The user tag is shoe-horned in for most games where it doesn't even matter.

Most games have rather underdeveloped protagonists with little impact on the game. Even games famous for their story and atmosphere fall into the trap of making the protagonist jut a projection screen for the player - look at Half-Life with its eternal mute or Dead Space where Isaac - a guy with no combat expereince at all - is experiencing a freaking nightmare and sees his crew mates getting slaughtered without so much as batting an eye.

Games with Female Protagonists which stand behind them at least make an effort of character development. For great examples look at Remember Me, Beyond Good & Evil, Heavenly Sword or some of the stuff by Rhianna Pratchett. Some of them are ultimately a bit stretched, like Tomb Raider's (2013) Lara turning from an innocent whiny girl into a mercyless killing machine in a matter or days/gameplay hours, but this is more or less because in the end it is a game.

Not that it being female is relevant, but I found Ori and the Blind Forest through that tag and that game is amazing

And where did I EVER say that the games was crap because of the Female Protagonist?
I am referring to the fact that most(if not all) gamers don't like most of the games with a Female Protagonist becasue the games are crap, and NOT because the main character is a female...

I like the games where you create your character and can choose sex...

I don't think the gender of the protagonist of a game determines if it's good or not, it's the game itself.

There are games like Fire Emblem Sacred Stones that stars Princess Eirika, and I think that game is fantastic. Then again I like strategy RPGs like that.

And I'm a sucker for games like Raphsody: A Musical Adventure where the girl goes out to save the prince with her power to communicate with stuffed animals. It's a cute RPG that presents itself like a Disney musical - with actual musical numbers included! The whole game is a stage play.

There are bad games with heroines in the lead. I don't like Final Fantasy XIII at all. But not because of Lightning. Because I don't like how the game is a hallway. I don't like the Crysterium level system. Those are gameplay problems, not heroine problems.

It's all about perspective, and as a mom of two girls who love to game as much as I do, I'm always on the lookout for these kinds of things.

Did I say the games were bad because they had a female main character?
Did I say that ALL games with female main characters are bad?

Why such hostility? I'm just asking a simple question. You said most are bad, but you didn't specify which. How am I supposed to know if the original tomb raiders fall into the most category or not?

This is also awful ironic because it seems to me that YOU are the one making accusations here.

That's, uhh... being awful accusatory... I mean, if we're gonna have a discussion, let's have a discussion. No need to spout vitriol over it.

It just appears that way. Out of games with a sole protagonists, most are male. Most games are not great. For every game that sucks featuring only a female protagonist you could probably name ten games that suck with a male protagonists. People just tend not to associate male protagonists with games that suck because male protagonists games are the norm. Since female only protagonist games appear far less they stand out more than their male counterparts. Since male protagonists are the norm, we don't typically associate that aspect with sucky games.We typicall subconciously disassociate the male gender from a game that sucks.

You can do lady uncharted, where you play as drake's sister in tomb raider. Thats a good lady winner game.

You even use a bow to kill rabbits.

If you want to be part of the discussion then why did you start of by turning the discussion towards something that I did not even hint at talking about, i.e. the implication or suggestion that I was claiming that the games were bad because of the main character being female.
