(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”.

This is all you get because women can't code.

Lara Croft objects to this directive from the ugly rug munching militant lesbians who run Microsoft.

Yes, make those women butt-ugly, that’s just what the game players want to see, just like their progressive female friends.

Toxic femininity?

If they’re even real women to begin with and not mentally challenged men pretending to be women.

"Microsoft urges developers not to create female characters with “exaggerated body proportions”..."

Meanwhile, Microsoft's gaming competitors just smile and rub their hands together in gleeful anticipation.

I’ve been watching The Goodish Gamer on youtube he was playing Starfield and man the diversity in that game is insane ,LOL

Curvy female characters are not a negative gender stereotype. Quite the opposite.

In your next adventure game, your choice for lead character will be:

1) Fat woman with blue hair and tats.

What? Were you expecting a second choice?

It is. Thankfully, there are mods to reduce it.

Is Biggus Dickus still allowed?

Years ago I often played the video game Tiger Woods golf. I always chose Natalie Gulbis as my avatar. My wife asked why I chose a female golfer. I said it's because we hit similar distances.

Gamergate, 2.0 look it up. All this BS is coming to head. It started with the Sweetbabyinc detection. They are woke fascists who make it their mission to ruin games.
