Which is why the rest of my post asks her, and many other feminists, to clarify why this is such a moral grievance to women.
Because it treats women as though they are simple objects, rather than complex subjects.
Okay, but how does it harm women?

What are the wider sociocultural repercussions of treating women as 'objects'?

Does it affect men too seeing as how objectification of men is almost as prevalent?

What exactly are your solutions to this alleged problem?

That's the problem, you stupid idiot. You honestly think feminists don't understand this? That's what we're fighting against.

Alright, memes aside here.

Minus the waffling, what Anita's argument essentially boils down to is the disdain for women being used as goal oriented sexual objectives for the player to achieve, and has thus drawn a fallacious conclusion between this and sexism in a wider context.

What she really fails to recognise, much akin to her other videos, is the market forces that dictate what should be provided in these games. The primary players of hardcore games such as Metroid, The Witcher, GTA (a separate market to the female dominated mobile games market such as Bejewelled, Candy Crush etc) are comprised of males. What gets males to play more of these games? Sex. It has been proven time and time again, sex sells, particularly in regards to men.

She could make the argument that the 'pernicious' exploitation of women in order to sell a product has more wider and harmful implications outside of gaming, but she never attempts to prove these assertions. Particularly this quote: "but when games use a woman’s affection, her body, or her sexuality as a carrot on a stick, they’re actively encouraging men to think of women as objects, prizes, and status symbols" is a false cause fallacy, because she hasn't successfully drawn a logical causation between these two lines of thought. In fact, a study from the University of Buffalo posits the notion that games containing mature content such as violence and sexism can promote or encourage moral sensitivity.

All this video really tells me is the patently patronising outlook Anita has towards gamers, and the inability to form the logical conclusion that most rational thinking people can and will discern between reality and fantasy. So nothing new here from her, really.

TL;DR: into le trash it goes.

Oh cool, so we'll expect the next instalment by 2019?
I do dislike her lack of punctuality.
I also dislike her lack of credible arguments and reluctance to engage in open discourse.

Well it's more in depth than the other ones, I'll give them that.

I'm not ready to instantly jump on the "Bethesda is shit" train.
Neither am I. The criticism of certain aspects of F3 and Skyrim are warranted to an extent, but this incessant bashing to the point of obsession on this forum is honestly insufferable.

I'm just waiting for Mordo's bitch ass to come in here and say "Niggers are at the root of this, I'm sure of it".

Unless you're asexual, it's extremely difficult to rebuff a girl willing to reciprocate your sex needs, because male biology and all that.

Guys who do it for bragging rights are either doing it for social status, or not doing it right at all.

Okay, so really, the whole "whites commit more mass shooting" is kind of a non sequitur then, unless you want to entertain a separate discussion?
Well that's what I'm saying. She was going off topic and I was just explaining that to you.
Sounds like you were having a go at me rather than her but okay.
I was talking shit to you, because you were coming in with your white power right wing bullshit, and misunderstanding what she was saying.
"It's right wing to point out facts guys ;^)"
You seem very racist or quick to point out white people aren't as bad :^)
In regards to gun crime in general, they're really not.

When I seen the title I expected the shooter to be black and I wasn't wrong.
Really? I expect that for riots, but when it comes to crazy things like this, I notice white people tend to be the ones to do it.

Much like mass shootings.
Vast, vast majority of gun crime is committed by blacks, statistically anyway. You've been spoonfed a media narrative that all these white kids are shooting up public places when that's clearly not the case.
You know the problem here is you're so eager to push your narrative you didn't even understand what she said.

The majority of mass shooting are committed by whites. You can't be spoon fed anything when they show the shooter's face and he's white. There's no evil liberal conspiracy going on trying to bring down the noble pure white race.
Not trying to push a narrative tbh m8, just trying to correct some facts before we all start white guilting it up in here.

This also wasn't a mass shooting either, so...
Correct what? The majority of mass shootings are committed by whites.

Obviously this isn't a mass shooting. But that's what she was talking about.
Well for one, she described it as a mass shooting, despite the fact that mass murder is currently defined as four or more victims during no distinctive time period. So to categorise it as a mass shooting and somehow "expect a white person" to be at the helm of the gun is disingenuous and incorrect.

C'mon, the show isn't THAT bad.
It isn't. Seasons 1 through 3 are actually pretty faithful to the books sans a few minor discrepancies here and there. It's good as a standalone show too.

S4 was okay, but then S5 took a dramatic nosedive in quality for some reason. It's like it was written by a completely different team of writers.
