i take back everything bad i've ever said about VR maybe it'll make gamers understand gender dsyphoria

@queer_queenie Another one - early we must show a character is shallow, so we have him briefly & VERY lightly hit on the protag Women always shuddered & shrugged off; men reacted WAY more uncomfortably We actually talked a lot about if this was okay, or too offputting too soon (we kept it)

@pwnieride @garius @queer_queenie 🙄

@EmiliaBestGirl @queer_queenie Westworld Awakening. It’s a narrative-horror game with its own story/characters in the Westworld universe. Men on the team listened to us (awesome), but would often still come out of headset remarking how scary he was during the horror bits. And we’d say, YUP that’s how we live!

@paperhana @queer_queenie Same! Our protag height was 5’3”, and the main villain was 6ft. I’m 5’4” and we had a few other women of similar height. It was pretty funny to see men hop in game and “wonder why scaling him isn’t working” until we confirmed nope, looks fine to us!

@pwnieride @queer_queenie As someone who is almost 6' (5' 11") it would be very interesting to see the world from another perspective.

@pwnieride @queer_queenie @AlexGOrlando This feels like it's right up your alley.

@pwnieride I’m 5’ 1.25”, and one of my friends is a good foot/foot and a half taller than me. Having to physically look up at someone to make eye contact is normal for me and idk how people can’t comprehend that some people are just That Short or just That Tall

@pwnieride @queer_queenie 6'2'' here and never used VR; didn't realize this is actually a thing but makes perfect sense :/ I would probably be that one asshole tester who keep complaining that this is so unrealistic why everyone's just at my eye level that's not how it works in real life at all lol
