    My favorite male fantasy that games allow me to realize is that of becoming a successful man despite not executing any meaningful work.

      I played a similar game on Roblox: Dig to find dad.

      The objective is to bomb your way some 3 kilometers downwards. When you reach the bottom you’ll find a grocery store where the dad is shopping for milk. Talking to him reveals that he doesn’t want to go home. I don’t know if other endings are possible.

      Nope. It was a BuzzFeed thing about a very very feminist person talking about how gaming only appeals to men. I am feminist, and the piece still got a massive eyeroll from me. They cherry picked a few things and said because of those things gaming was only catering to men.

      Worse is that they didn’t tackle any actual issues going on in gaming. Just lame ragebait.

      IIRC one of the examples was an NPC in GTA 5 making a sexist comment. In GTA 5, which is of course a parody of modern culture, completely out of context.

        I thought it was okay. It’s pretty cheap at $5, but is probably only a few hours long.

        That being said, digging a hole is a little thereaputic.

    Girls can like digging holes too. Sounds to me like someone is looking for something to hate, and really reaching here, unless there’s something more subtle to this game (I doubt it).

          Right but that’s not relevant to my point that this person is criticizing someone who doesn’t exist

    From what I’ve seen, men absolutely love digging holes. Every summer on the beach it’s the same: there’s always men digging holes. They bring their kids to the beach just to have an excuse for digging a hole, a waterfort, some dams, … For the kids ;)
