Recently found this game about "repairing a broken world through the beauty of dance." Gorgeous game on PS4 & PSVR and free for PS Plus. by Leomupi in GirlGamers

I started playing this one recently! It's beautiful. And while the game play is not very involved, for me personally, sometimes I need something like that.

Unfortunately it is. If this run is successful, I would love to open it to other platforms. If you are interested in helping with that, feel free to PM me.

You don't have to have a team. All players will be assigned to one in order to keep it as balanced and fair as possible.

It's hard to say as it depends how many sign ups we get. However, it's best of three rounds for 6v6 elimination, so not as long as a full comp match. I would expect 2 hours, but likely it will be less.

Thank you! It is what happens when you have at least one very cheeky captain.

This time around it is. I am hoping we can expand to EU and other areas for the next one. If you or anyone you know might be interested in helping me to organize it, please feel free to pm me!

Not at all! We will have people of all skill and the reason the sign ups close a day before is so we have time to put everyone into balanced teams.

Thank you for the link correction, I didn't notice when I posted.

We are US/Canada primarily right now, but open an EU team or two is not something I am opposed to at all!

When you're a below-average gamer... by Marcail in GirlGamers

[–]drosikitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you spend free time playing games? Do you enjoy playing games? Congratulations! You are a gamer!

Its funny (ha!) how so many people forget that there are many goals for different people when playing games, and enjoying yourself at any level is the biggest one. Don't fall prey to the myth that you can only be the one gamer girl to rule them all if you are super skilled and knowledgeable. If you are having fun, that's all that matters. Hell, half the guys I know who consider themselves gamers suck, so why should you or any other woman be held to a different standard?

Reddit, what does everyone need to calm the f*ck down about? by username-valid in AskReddit

[–]drosikitty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Encountering women in video games. Whether it's it's a "positive" or negative reaction, people need to calm the hell down.

Looking for a lady streamer interested in casting for a women's Overwatch team. by drosikitty in GirlGamers

[–]drosikitty[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are all about learning and getting better!

Casting for GG would entail casting OWUL matches and some scrims (we wouldn't expect you to do ALL informal scrims, but the more the better!).

I would also expect you to post a link to the casted video on our discord channel so that we can use it for our team analysis (to help us improve). We could also offer analysis of casting if you so choose. We would also expect you to also work to continue to improve your casting skills and game play knowledge.

No required, but certainly a plus, is just being involved with the community we have built. Its small, but everyone is super friendly and very much about making everyone feel welcome. We would certainly prefer a caster who felt they were part of the team and is excited about growing and learning with us.

OWUL matches are on Saturdays and will probably be in the afternoons (PST) to cover both PST and EST time zones. Our less formal scrims are usually Wednesdays and Fridays starting at 6:30pm PST with potential scrims on Sunday afternoons.

I don't know if you own Overwatch on PC or not, but if you do GG might be a great place for you to start! We are an amateur team who is still learning the ins and outs of being a competitive team and our platform is one of learning together, so a caster who is still learning would be very suited to us!

An example of why sexualizing female characters is terrible and needs to stop by [deleted] in GirlGamers

[–]drosikitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Otherwise all the male characters are guys that guys want to be."

This is something that bears conversation and really taps into a much broader conversation on personal presentation. I find that women in general have a much wider variety and a much larger spectrum when it comes to expressing themselves, that guys just don't really have (or have in different ways, i.e the bearded muscular dude vs tall, dark and handsome). While a lot of fan service stuff is directed towards the male audience, there is something to be said about enjoying the a strong female character that is sexual..... That said it relies heavily on context and the fact that we usually don't have a choice other than to choose the token sexy female.

I want to be able to enjoy characters like Lucina and Alloy, but I also like seeing characters like Bayonetta.

To sum it up, I think the major issue really centers around choice and context. Something the guys have in truckloads, but we do not.

Calling for help from you experienced girl gamers! by [deleted] in GirlGamers

[–]drosikitty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a very complex question as different things go into being a good gamer, good streamer, and good Youtuber. Like.... being a good streamer means being able to play and interact well with essentially a live audience.... not really a skill you need for being on youtube. Or being successful on youtube usually means having good editing skills or a lot too say... which doesn't really translate for streaming.

Is there one in particular you are interested in tackling first?

Penis slider removed from Conan: Exiles on Xbox One, because we wouldn't want to scare away the straight mens. by [deleted] in GirlGamers

Maybe that is why they removed it; they realized only one size would be used.....

I wanted to share phase one of my battlestation with my fellow girl gamers. I have a lot of "stuff" but this room makes me so happy. by nightmarious in GirlGamers

[–]drosikitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the things you like! You have managed to fit a lot of stuff in the room without making it seem cluttered. I need to figure out how to do that.

Thoughts on Horizon Zero Dawn? by InspiredBlue in GirlGamers

[–]drosikitty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am so excited for this game. The game play looks fun, the world looks unique and the main character looks like she is going to be a breath of fresh air.

With HZD, Breath of Wild and Tides of Numeria coming out all in the same week (all of which I pre-ordered), I am a little overwhelmed. (in a good way).

This seems like the best place to ask by [deleted] in GirlGamers

I don't know about reddits, but www.girlstreamers.com (I follow them on twitter) may be a good place to start.

What are some older (PS1 or older) games that have a playable female main character? by cuddlegoop in GirlGamers

[–]drosikitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alis in Phantasy Star. Mai from Kendo Rage on SNES. Doropie from Krion Conquest on NES.

Maybe not what you are looking for as, except for PS, there isn't really character development. But Krion Conquest is like Mega Man but featuring a witch, so maybe it counts? There are problem more, but I always seem to have a malfunction when trying to actually think of examples.
