(NICHE GAMER) – Microsoft urges developers not to create female characters with “exaggerated body proportions” on their official site to support game devs.
The site, titled “Product Inclusion Action: Help Customers Feel Seen” includes a bullet list of considerations they urge developers to make when working on their product. One Twitter user pointed out the language expressly condemning certain female characters as reinforcing “negative gender stereotypes”.

“urges developers not to create female characters with “exaggerated body proportions” on their official site to support game devs”
I know when I was younger and buying computer games, if it didn’t have a “curvaceous” figure on the cover or in the game, I didn’t bother buying it. They’re gonna blow all their development money when they finally figure out all the nerdy boys want exaggerated body proportions!

Halo is an interesting show—based on the concepts of the Secret Space Program which officially does not exist.

Turnabout is fair play. When is Microsoft going to call for the ban of male video game characters who are too buff?

I guess no more Jessica Rabbit characters either!
Perhaps all females in public, movies, TV and video games will only be allowed to wear burkas.

I support this message.
Make women in video games as ugly as possible, then maybe all those 30 years old living in Mom’s garage will quit playing video games and go out and get a job and a girl friend.

Design them all as Twiggy. Chopped off hair and looks like she needs eat a sandwich or three.

Good reasons for me to stick with my vintage Battlefield 1942 / Vietnam assortment, MS flight simulators and monopoly.
I go months without playing them and for a couple of weeks run them.
One game I’d love to see is Remington Steele - The Game.
It was in a Simpsons episode.

"Gamergate, 2.0 look it up." Thanks, but I've been following the progress of this latest "miro-mind" outbreak on "The Quartering" Youtube channel. Beer and popcorn is a must.

First, they will have to define:
What Is A Female?
Since it has the word ‘male’ in it, it will be banned.
