Strategic butt-coverings in video-games

This is as bad as the Godwin’s law incident earlier. Are people dying because of pixel butts?

Never mind that despite the “near impossibility” of seeing batman’s butt claimed in the very text of the bb entry, you can get plenty of batt-butt views writhin a minute of powering up Arkham Knight. But you know, impossible because … reasons? Somehow it doesn’t matter if the examples used in the video are not just cherry picked and distorted to support a particular narrative but even flat-out wrong, because the cause is so noble and just?

Maybe I have too much of a logical programmer brain to let that go, but it bothers me, and has since the beginning. And it keeps happening in these videos.

Anyways. If you want to see an amazing, powerfully feminist take on Tomb Raider, one that has been near universally acclaimed by both feminists and plain old gamers like me, and is one of the most striking examples of videogames getting it right, which correct me if I am wrong but is the entire freaking point of these videos in the first place, just take me up on my offer for a free Steam copy of Rise of the Tomb Raider.

I do feel these discussions would be a hell of a lot better if the people involved had actually played any of the games being discussed. Hence my offer.
