@sweetcreme @beardalaxy Metroid Dread was a good example of how to handle a legitimately Badass Female Action Hero, making both Samus and the (male) villain Raven Beak look really good. Samus gets tons of badass moments, but Raven Beak is still shown to be the stronger fighter, which doesn't make Samus look weak, it instead really sells just how strong Raven Beak is.

Tearing down your villains (ESPECIALLY in the name of feminism) don't actually elevate your heroes
@ChristiJunior @beardalaxy Samus is really awesome. She's the silent, cool type who just gets the job done. I wish western creators realized that it is possible to create woman characters like this without making her a mary sue with an obnoxious personality who disparages men all the time. It is isn't hard but yet they make it seem like it's impossible.

@matrix "hey man, do you want to spend your saturday night standing in front of some monument to israel outside in the cold and rain?"

@ChristiJunior if gameliberty has any tamamo emotes, i can't find them lol.

i'm guessing she only gets as many votes as she does because she's a meme character. highly doubt most people who knew about her knew her full name, that she even came from a video game at all, or have played the games she's in before this contest went live.

which isn't a bad thing, to be fair, you can like a character even if you don't know who they are really. but claiming that she's the BEST video game girl of all time when she's up against samus aran of all characters is retarded and 100% fueled by contrarianism. you can't win with this strategy either, because if she wins well guess what, she's now the most popular one so i guess you gotta' move on to someone else.

@ChristiJunior sexy aryan badass bounty hunter with strong maternal instincts and an animal lover. what's not to love??

@ChristiJunior i will come back to vote for samus. i know people will vote against her because fedi (and the internet in general) is full of contrarians.

she's popular for a reason, you know. i'll bet 90% of you niggers didn't even know tamamo existed before this poll.

Neither the current Happening, nor DRC acting like a broken piece of shit will stop the #BestVidyaGirlContest Final:

Samus Aran (Metroid) VS Tamamo-no-Mae (Fate/EXTRA)

Who truly deserves the title of Best Girl?

@matana @LukeAlmighty oh man, trying to interpret silent hill lore must be absolute hell for you

@LukeAlmighty @matana apparently this dude was only a background artist for the game and the series co-creator Yoshio Sakamoto said that this being true was as likely as Metroid Prime getting a PS2 port.

One of the only things we know about Hirofumi Mastuoka is this quote, which was an answer to "a secret about Samus only you know." So he was either joking/trolling or he's retarded. There's also the potential that the word "newhalf" can refer to a more masculine female but I don't know Japanese well enough to confirm that and I suspect only Japanese people who were at least in their 20s in the late 1980s would know.

Anyone that actually believes this has more brain rot than people who think Kirby is non-binary.

@BigDuck @deprecated_ii My fellow Jews, remember that the important thing is to not let hate win. Those Israeli soldiers who died and got pissed and shat on wouldn't want to make this attack about race or religion They would forgive. The REAL Victims of this attack are all the moderate Palestinians who will now face increased prejudice. Israel must open its hearts and its wallets and it's borders to Arabs.
