If I understand correctly, when they came out with the game after 007 goldeneye for N64 nobody had issues with that. I mean, there wasn't internet back then like we have now. But still, Iirc nobody had a problem with it.
(I could be wrong though)
But if that's true, I wonder why this situation is different. Maybe it's because the two games are different and what not. And also way more gta games previously, with all only males in it. Well, that you play as.

I remember back around the release of GTA Vice City there were discussions about what kind of a female character we could get in a future GTA game.
I was actually surprised to see some protest the idea. Especially if it's true that they're taking some inspiration from Bonnie and Clyde.

I'm about as anti-woke as it gets, but haven't we already had decades of female protagonists in games, like Samus, Lara Croft, Jill Valentine, etc? Why is it an issue now?

Why not just choose the gender like in other games? People whined about CJ being black for San Andreas.

I mean I kinda get it with GTA. Dudes are out here living vicariously through GTA. How are you going to do that as a woman?

When they deliver babies nowadays, I guess it's Boy or Woke on the birth certificate.
Or moron for making internet threads about it on the world wide web information highway.

ALIENS goes "woke" with a female protagonist...(Damn it, the first film was an ensemble piece! The Libs destroy everything!)

The original GTA had 3 female protagonists if I'm not mistaken. If that's what it takes to be woke, GTA has been woke since the 90's.

Tomb Raider is the dark web against freedom.
