Re: Who are your favourite childless/childfree characters that kick ass?

Maybe only slightly off topic, but the whole BUT MUH FAMILY trope that pops up so often in entertainment media is the reason I love playing Resident Evil and Call of Duty so much.

With a very few notable exceptions, basically all of my favorite kickass characters are child-free by default, since their family lives are never mentioned. You can just assume they're single or gay or whatever you like because there is literally never any circumstance in which the narrative tells you otherwise.

So good.

And yeah, that means a lack of female characters in CoD, but it sure doesn't in RE!

I've noticed games tend to be better for it than TV or film for some reason.

...Better or agonizingly worse. There's no middle ground.

It's either extreme sap and children/family shoehorned in for drama and instant feeeelings or no mention of anything to do with interpersonal relationships whatsoever (because it would get in the way of the message or take too much time away from the shooting).
