...I know right. Artyom mass murders groups of men, not all of them hostile, and she takes issue about the one time he puts his hand roughly over a woman's mouth so that she won't give his position away with a scream and get him killed because he's hiding in her room. That shit's just patronizing.

That said, again, as much as I love the game, Metro: Last Light has huge issues with its representation of women, but she doesn't touch on any of them. She just mined it for the most "shocking" scenes and put them in a montage completely out of context.

I feel the same way about Dishonored. I love that game, but it has its issues at the sexism front. And then Anita goes and talks about the "prostituted women" and how none of them have any backstories and if she had actually played that game, she'd know that they are just about the only NPCs who all have individual backstories.

It all shows quite clearly that she has never played the games, maybe has watched a few choice scenes or a LP speedrun but nothing more. And that's kind of like someone talking about the issues in Shakespeare plays after they only watched "Shakespeare in Love".
