God damn it, I thought this was the most charming and personable part of E3 so far and you fuckers had to go and make it dirty.

Ghostwire director Ikumi Nakamura has developed quite the fan art following [see staff posts]
- Thread starter galvenize
- Start date
Lmao
As a woman, these kinds of threads and all the "yikes" shitposters are always baffling. So many people love to just assume "this is how women feel about things", and it's all over resetera
I have no problem with Nakamura's presentation. I mainly just asked about Tak Fuji because I was legit curious if there was Tak Fuji fan art. I honestly think if he had that conference yesterday there would be fan art of it.
I haven't seen the creepy yet tbh and I am not going to search for it either. Just gonna look at the fanart she retweets
Well, I'm glad she's liking the attention
She reminded me of Tak Fuji at Konami in 2010, trying to be funny and very spontaneous. It's great to have presenters being genuine like that.

Hopefully she will be deprogrammed and realize she's being demeaned.
The same reason why people did the same for Keanu Reeves and not them. Because no one gives a shit about them the second they leave the stage and are basically dime a dozen in presentations like this. Guess what people remember and like stuff that stands out
Loss
Loss, also known as CADbortion, Loss.jpg and | || || |_, is a series of parodies based on a dramatic cartoon strip from the webcomic series Ctrl+Alt+Del in which the female lead suffers a miscarriage, which became a subject of widespread mockery among the readers.

Just check "loss" in knowyourmeme. It's fucking ancient, but still good.
I expect a 'hey resetera why cant you people just be normal' video anytime soon
How was it a "feminine pose"? Do you really think she did that thinking it was NOT meant to be received as something "cute"?
I still think this whole situation is corny and her attention is half due to being an asian female but it's also obvious she wasn't trying to give some overly serious presentation and also apparent (through her retweeting or whatever) that she isn't upset by those viewing the presentation as 'cute'
Good Lord... Another signal that The game industry has got to grow up . This is so fucking weird. They did this to Jade Raymond too. The lack of self awareness.
The start of it and all the posters with avatars of asian women saying asian fetishism isn't an issue. You know, despite being walking talking examples of it existing.
If it was a man, like Miyazaki, who premiered this game, the reactions would have been more about his level of genius than his looks or actions. But when it's a female director, it's suddenly about her likeability, rather than the raw talent on display.
You can call Charlize Theron pretty because she's an actress/model and she is expected to be pretty.
People aren't infantilizing or dimishing her, though. That is your interpretation of what is happening and maybe that says more about you than them.
If they did they would view her pose as derivative idol-tier nonsense and shut the stream off in protest. Also I moved!!
This isn't too surprising. She seems to be enjoying them, so no issues there. The problem with the internet is that there's always that one person that goes a little too far and start sexualizing and infantilizing these real people. There's *always* one.
Be cool, internet.
Be cool, internet.
ResetEra overreacting and making ridiculous assumptions yet again!
Ok so imagine that a person who so eloquently wrote this later went on to create a comic page about his self insert's girlfriend having a miscarriage.
I love how the women herself seem to like it and yet so many people are 'this is bad and you should all feel bad!'.
The Miyamoto deification is about his talent and genius.
Men are genius, women are cute. How can I be the only one who sees the issue with this?
hmmm
I can't even tell if this is satire or not
that kinda speaks for itself, doesn't it.
So I suppose those articles I linked to don't count or something.
All treated like memes and game design gods instead of "kawaii." I wonder what the difference is. 👀
You're acting there's no such thing as western fetishism?Are you telling me that the gaming community has a major issue with asian fetishisim?
User Banned (1 Month): Dismissive and antagonistic attitude towards concerns surrounding sexism and racial fetishization
So you're saying if this was a white woman or a man, there would be no problem. Just because she's asian it's suddenly a massive problem and everyone is a creepy fucker going around here? You have a really twisted mind.
Men are just men. They aren't demi-gods floating above us. The creepiness factor stands.
Acknowledging that asian fetishism is incredibly common in anime/gaming=/=ignoring that western fetishism exists.
I'm saying if this was a white woman or a man this thread literally wouldn't exist and they'd likely get called cringe, turned into a meme, or be put in a crowbcat video yes. Devs expressing excitement often get those sorts of reactions.
If Miyazaki could pull off her moves, poses and charisma, then I am sure you would find people talking about that too.
Also, you keep acting as if only ever one thing can be true in our reality. Like you can only be talented, or pretty, or cute, or professional.
But that's not what people are and how the world works. Her being on stage, you can't see how hardworking or talented she is. But what you can see is how she is charismatic, energetic, motivated and cute. Once again, none of these things undermine her being a professional, hardworking person. But those things are not apparent to people just watching this audio/visual presentation. All they got are her appearance, mannerisms and her words.
You keep acting like people calling out what they saw as positive traits is "reductionist" but at the same time also try to be reductionist because you believe those things can/should not be mentioned.
