Good ol’ Stealy Wheely Automobiley. I remember everyone was pissed off you could beat-up women in the game, including prostitutes. What I always found remarkable about this critique; given that neither the open world nature of the game, not the violence itself seemed to be the problem, as long as it was directed at men - what was the alternative?! No women? Women walking around behind some battle-droid energy shield? And neither could there be prostitutes, although drug dealers and hijackers were not a problem. So I guess the only image allowed is one of a Victorian nature; pure and innocent maidens, both delicate and modest....? I suppose that’s the modern woman....? 🤔
