Depictions of Women in Gaming (and other related issues)

I agree. I think Ivy looks ridiculous! And we should encourage more females into gaming. But at the same time I support the developers decision to make Ivy like that. It's a difficult thing.

I think the solution to the problem is to make new studios that make more games with better female protagonists. Which is slowly starting to happen. However I feel games that feature characters like Ivy should still be made. The key is making all different kinds of games instead of trying to make all games follow the same standard. Surprisingly there are a some female gamers who actually like Ivy how she is. They may draw fan pictures and cosplay as her.

So yes the solution is to make more variety of games, rather than transforming all genres to a certain standard.
