Hi, I am Erica ;) How are you today? I am a manager at GameTV. A new game is launching, could you do me a favour and try to play it? Every second player will win a game t-shirt. It is a latest online game, give it a try on my page. Will take you couple of moments. Let my know what you think we can talk. Erica

Guys, League of Angels is so desperate.

Their shitty porn ads aren’t enough.

They’re resorting to making fake tumblr accounts to beg for players.

UNBELIEVABLE LOL.

But, but, but… sex itself does NOT sell? WHO KNEW!?

I find it amusing that these games go into predictable advertising spirals.  It happened with Evony and now it’s happening with League of Angels.

First it’s sexy images with generic taglines.

Then it’s softcore porn images with taglines befitting hardcore porn.

Then it’s annoying as affiliate/spamming programs.

It’s pretty much the predictable pattern of a mediocre product that’s sustaining by the wishful thinking of executives and investors who are unable to learn from history.

Gamer culture has pushed the argument about women’s roles so far to one side that most of them honestly believe the status quo of default objectification and women-as-rewards is the “neutral,” “nonpolitical” starting position.

What we’re reminded of every time someone defends a ridiculous outfit.  Doesn’t matter what excuse they bring – it’s always one that supports this notion that it’s all how it should be.

And if it doesn’t look like how it should be, there must be a special reason that people just don’t understand (frequently this reason is so special it cannot be explained, only experienced!)

And don’t forget: if we don’t like how it’s ‘supposed’ to be, then it should be totally up to us to create more diverse games!
