Ganked this from Zar
Dec. 8th, 2013 06:52 pmDiversity in Video Games survey
The last three questions are the biggies: you gotta list every video game you have ever played that starred a female protagonist, POC, or LGBTQ.
I listed a lot of horror games for the girls, mostly freeware like Ib and Yume Nikki. And Clock Tower, of course. Nomnomnom. Thank god I remembered Jet Force Gemini, TwinBee: Rainbow Bell Adventure and the Little Mermaid game on NES. I wanted to include Puella Magi Madoka Magica Portable, but I hadn't played that yet. I left out games like Kirby's Dream Land 3 and Sonic Adventure since technically, your main main protagonists were still Kirby and Sonic. Sonic Rush made the cut, though, since it starred Sonic and Blaze.
Considering how many horror games I listed for female-centric games, I wonder what that tells about us as a society. :o
POCs? All I got was Portal. And zero for LGBTQ. :( I would've listed Silver Chaos, but technically, I've only seen Zar's screencaps of it, not played the game itself.
Boy, looks like video games have a lot to catch up on. :o
