I actually do.
This argument doesn't work. SF5 was a walking abomination of a game with the worst launch in history and SF6 shattered their records. I don't think sales will be an issue at all for MK, probably the one thing you shouldn't try to attack if anything lol.
A lot of these are social constructs though that are constantly being reinforced. Which said reinforcement isn’t just coming from society or culture, but also from the parents themselves.
The reports were nearly 3 million as of november.
But its not really a construct,its an intrinsic desire,which occurs naturally.Even though yes there is room for reinforcment by the choice of the parents which may impact the childs behaviour and so on.
Idk I think the current price is more than fair tbh. $50 You're essentially getting the story addon for free. Its only $2
It actually isn’t though. All of those things you listed are social constructs. There’s no “intrinsic” or “natural” desire for a boy to want to play with toy cars for instance and not a girl. Same goes for climbing things, playing with barbies/action figures, dressing up, etc etc.
Boys have more testosterone than girls - this is an undisputed biological fact - which is the hormone which stimulates male characteristics, 'traits', if you will. As a result, boys are more prone to display male behavior than girls because they are biologically inclined to do so. Male behavior traits are competition, aggressiveness, increased libido, leadership, assertiveness, etc. This doesn't mean that only men experience and chase after those traits, it simply means they are biologically 'encouraged' to do so more than women do. Women, on the other hand, due to the fact that they biologically assigned to be mothers, have feminine traits which are about nurturing, being social, adept at reading and displaying emotion, etc. because those are traits a mother needs in order to raise and handle her children. Again, this isn't something only women can display and have, but it is coded in their dna to have an affinity towards. There are always exceptions - effeminate men, tomboys, etc. - but the stereotypes exist for a reason.
chucky would be hilarious. think baron oddjob in goldeneye n64 they could do it they just dont have the balls , only lows hit him
I too think that Chucky would work well as an assist.chucky would be hilarious. think baron oddjob in goldeneye n64 they could do it they just dont have the balls , only lows hit him
This is not true at all. Humans have evolved for thousands of years now with very specific cultural behaviors that at a certain point have overlapped with biological genetic instructions. For thousands of years, men, because of their larger physical nature, are the ones who have had to hunt and protect their tribes. Hence why male kids tend to play much rougher and seem to be more willing to engage in physically dangerous activities. This is not to say that there isn't a lot of overlap and many girls prefer to play with cars/action figures while some boys prefer to play dolls, etc. But to pretend that there aren't deeply engrained biological behaviors specific to different genders is just flat out wrong.
But thats not true though.
As i said,50 is right there competing with triple a full priced brand new games.
The fact that NRS/WB in the beginning had the balls to charge us 10$ for a SKIN and 5$ for a FATALITY is insane.
It was outrages,not only the price itself but their product logic as well.
It is true though. And a lot of what you, @Blakfellow and @Nickolaidas said has nothing to do with anything that I said. It’s literally just unhinged strawman arguments. Like why are y’all talking about hunter gatherers and that men are physically larger than women? What does this have to do with anything that I said?
Ok lets make this as simple as it can be.
But it's not though. Boys wanting to play cowboys and indians which appeases their male instincts of conflict, chase, competitiveness and victory is not a societal construct.
Y’all keep demonstrating that you don’t know (or understand) what a social construct even is.

Early Women Were Hunters, Not Just Gatherers, Study Suggests | Smithsonian (smithsonianmag.com)
"In the paper, published Wednesday in the journal PLOS ONE, a team of international researchers identified 391 foraging societies across the world, from the 1800s to present day. (Scientists use modern foraging societies as a window into past human behavior, reports NPR’s Nurith Aizenman.) Of these, they obtained data on hunting from 63 societies."
Lol.
1. better? sources are marked and just one click away in the text.
2. quotes like "wildlife was nerfed" (especially in the circumstances of the examined societies) and the dismissal of a study as "feministic", therefore biased, do not contribute to a rational discourse at all.
