Zero faith in anything she says. As you rightly pointed out, she previously championed the trans movement.

These people claim there is no such "construct" as gender or male/female. They can't define a woman. Who is she to lecture us on how males and females support each other? Get out.

Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet and Ghost of Yotei are going to bomb harder than the B-29 bombers Enola Gay and Bockskar did on Japan and Sony's footing the bill.

Hope the SJWs enjoy their likenesses immortalized as the faces that might sink their respective studios.

Notice the main character IS Tati. But also, the official trailer was released at the time of the inauguration of Trump - and it starts with... a shaving segment that has nothing to do with the game.

4-B statement and it doesn't match the gameplay part of the trailer later. It was added specifically for Trump.

I agree with you totally, the game is going to bomb spectacularly, though a few "gaming" sites will claim top seller status and the company will announce "record breaking milestones" the day of release, along the lines of "received the most clicks in a 4-minute period in Steam history..."

Of course, the bot reviews will all sound the same: "the game is amazing" and "I actually really liked it and you should too" for the full FOMO effect.

If Hollywood is supposed to reflect the composition of America, here are some numbers.

Race:

White alone (any ethnicity): ~61.6%

Non-Hispanic White: ~57.8%

Hispanic or Latino (any race): ~18.7%

Black or African American alone (non-Hispanic): ~12.1%

Asian alone (non-Hispanic): ~6.0%

American Indian / Alaska Native alone: ~1.1%

Native Hawaiian & Other Pacific Islander: ~0.2%

Two or more races: ~10.2%

Marriage/Divorce:

47.1% of U.S. households were headed by married

50% of first marriages in the U.S. ultimately end in divorce

39% of households have children under the age of 18.

Sexual Orientation:

85.7% identify as straight/heterosexual

5.2% identify as bisexual

2.0% identify as gay

1.4% identify as lesbian

1.3% identify as transgender

<1% select another LGBTQ+ identity (e.g., pansexual, queer)

So, by that metric, we should have shows that star a mix of races, with a majority White cast, where the half of the characters are married and have healthy families. 3/4 of the characters should be straight, and the other 1/4 should be LGB, and there should be no trans.

So, why aren't they?

Your thinking like a classic english philopher describing reality. Not the continental wishfulfillment a "how it should be" that Hollwood embraced.

You forgot Christian stats, pro life stats, Creation vs Evolution stats which affect directly how characters would think and behave.

And half Christian stats would be evangelists! Ahh yeahhh!!! Represent!

Sometimes one does judge the book by the cover and finds it accurate.
