We all owe Roberta Williams. I got it now. Still doesn't make her a good gam maker.

Try reading anything at all about her games for two seconds.  You apparently don't know much about classic PC games.

Here, let me start you off:

Might as well throw in a bit of awards for Gabriel Knight, since Jane Jensen is also a woman:

By the way, why am I taking the time to bother with you?  I just want to know how far you're going to go to try to justify yourself.  Please, go on.  If women can't make games then how come all of these games are better than anything you're making?  Surely you can do better than a woman.


SPECIAL BONUS:  Roberta Williams also made an absurdly gory game.  Women can do that too, you know?  http://games.ign.com/articles/829/829486p2.html

Her husband did programming but not design.  So please tell me about how programming is equal to game making.

Mak gam is a combination of all necessary components like graphics, programming, etc.

She couldn't manage to do all of those on her own. She had to beg her man to help her.

Ahaha games are very rarely made by one person.  Sorry, champ.


By your logic Kojima can't make games either.  Neither can almost anyone.

There are some people in the indie scene that can.

Also don't forget companies have time pressure.

Yes, but this isn't the indie scene Roberta Williams was in.  The indie scene as we know it didn't exist.  If it was now, Roberta Williams probably COULD have made her early games by herself.  Guess what?  She didn't get to lean on RPGMaker like you do.  Programming wasn't so simple at the time (if you even consider RPGMaker programming).

Yes they do.  Sierra On-Line was a company.  A company founded by Roberta Williams, which became one of the biggest game companies at the time.  Again, how does this mean women can't make games?

Reread my posts.
If we just talk about the indie scene (because there are no single people in the real game making industry that work alone) none of those developers I referred to in my last post are female. =-)

We aren't talking about the indie scene.  We're talking about games.  I like how you just suddenly change over to the indie scene when your arguments fall apart though.

I like how you start insults when you don't agree with other people's arguments. Don't make me count them in this thread...

Well we needed to find games that are made by women without male's help. And if we can't find any game in the professional scene that is made by a single person, we have no other choice than to switch to the indie scene. Otherwise we can't even argument.
Or show me a game that is completely made by a female group.

Dude, what is your problem with women? Like in all honesty, do you have problems getting them to like you?

This is not the way! I know primal male aggression gives us the need to show that we're better than women in some aspects, to show ourselves as PROVIDERS and shit and therefore VALUABLE to mate with, but this is the 21st Century. Women got the equal rights now!!

No one is going to suck you off because you say you're better at making games than them. Especially when you seethe with hatred towards their gender.
Hey hey hey

Nope, they have more rights, because we gave them. We have to get back what's ours!

I'm no virgin.
I started late, but I started.
Though I am a butt sex virgin. I never really needed to try it out, also women don't seem to enjoy it. Some may tolerate it, but instead you can better have vagina sex.
