Anya, the first playable female in the Gears franchise, is being changed, and she’s being changed to appease people who uphold normative gender stereotypes. This is problematic.
Epic Games is facing a $1.2 million fine by the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets over "unfair practices" in the Fortnite shop.
It might be cheaper to simply pay the fine. Fighting said fine could cost millions due to court and lawyer fees. Fortnite generates well over a 100 million in each month, so Epic has plenty of cash.
But if they did pay it, then they are basically admitting that they did something they weren’t supposed to be doing. If they fight it, they may win and continue to have a sense of urgency for their micro transactions thus making more money long term.
Meaning more suits to follow from others if they don't fight as well.
Not a fan of Epic nor fortnite and their micro transactions. But the game is heavily supported and is free to play, all store items are completely cosmetic.
I'd fight back too. These are kinda meaningless reasons to fine someone like really for THAT. It's like they just wanted to make money or something.
There is a law for something, but even if its stupid follow it because if you break it you pay for it; if they knew they cant place a “buy now” in NL then just dont do it!
Taking into account the skin’s styles, inspiration and final product, we’re going to rank every skin from the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Battle Pass in order from worst to best
Epic Games winning its cases against both Apple and Google is shaping the way forward for the future of mobile gaming.
I feel alot of mobile gamers are kids which will at some point probably turn to console or pc. Mobile gaming just doesn't cut it for me.
tru dat, but i feel like it's gonna be a lot more viable for people who travel a lot or don't want to invest in a full gaming rig. Think of it as a Switch on drugs, with a LOT more room for free illegal downloads.
They said their reducing the amount of swearing she does. This is because in the first two games she never swore, To suddenly have her swearing every time she does anything wouldnt fit the character.
i guess nobody saw GI Jane
at least its not about Tits and Ass like with most female videogame characters
I know I cuss more when I have locusts trying to kill me.
Plus, it usually cost you a cover charge and 2 drink minimum to get cussed at properly by a woman.
The nudity is just a bonus.
So what is this blogger (i.e. amateur article writing/journalist) trying to say? That cursing and getting angry are personality traits that only men have? Are men the only sex that are vulgar and violent? Are these traits exclusive to men and men alone? Hardly. Not every female on the face of this planet is a delicate little flower, and one day when you actually get personal face time with women, you will come to know and believe it.
But then again, you could also look at it this way. Yes Anya was not as vulgar and as obscene as in the previous Gears', but it can be argued that Anya has just reformed according to the fictional world portrayed in Gears of War. After all, hypothetically, is it absolutely impossible for a woman who was once very "feminine" to change and become gruff and tuff according to the conditions and circumstances throughout her life?
Who Care's !!
I just wanna see her PUPPIES !!!
And once u complete the game you should get an unlockable outfit for her to wear which would have to be a nice skimpy bikini
