Would be interesting to see what they produce. There are certainly tropes in video games that portray an unrealistic standard of men. If done right it might be good.

It's 4chan and they're making it out of spite, so it'd just be "I'M NOT HUGELY MUSCLED" instead of "the core aspect of masculinity and how it's portrayed in modern media and culture is incredibly damaging to both sexes."

Well, having read the thread through it does include that. It does counter the argument made that about women are always made attractive. Unrealistic standards set by the media are incredibly damaging to both sexes. Another example include male disposability (for example, when reporting murders/massacres it is often reported "X number of people were killed today, including X women and children") This implies that women are special cases (I am not arguing children aren't). To add weight to the story as it were.

Anyway, this is not the thread to get into it.

What I'm trying to say is that it could be interesting and worth watching out for. You never know they might make something good.

gently caress that, I'll make my own version and hire a better looking guy to star in my kickstarter video because of my severe personal image issues.

Go ahead. You've either managed to miss the point or aren't interested in trying understand it.

It could be, but given that it's going to be the 4chan MRA shithead crowd making it, there's not a chance in hell that it will be.

I see you haven't read my posts on this matter at all.

I did not see those, your reaction to my posts is what gave me the impression I had. Fair enough.
