And like all people who strip mine, once they run out of things to mine they discuss misogyny.

Well, you do have a busy life, what with keeping tabs on wild, rough-and-tumble forum members while sorting out the drama between your twenty two inner lesbians.
Your drunk posts continue to baffle me.

It's like strip-mining turned up to eleven trillion. Eventually you just run out.

I guess even terrible horridness has its limits.

Do you have ANY idea how lucrative the misogyny trade is?

I would say I do, but I figured we've already discussed Anita Sarkeesian to death already.

I was expecting something funny to laugh at... but interesting this topic dried up.

I mean... It wasn't THAT long ago since we saw the greatest doorbell ringing simulator ever.

But what is on this page? A card game for people who want a pervy card game?

Come on people where is the solid calcified suck, the rage inducing terribleness, the visions of pain and misery. Where is the kickstarter gone wrong?

I don't know if people want to go out and seek the worst of the worst. That's scary.

Well, it's not the worst of the worst, but I found this little gem, a hardcore-monster-fighting squeaky-clean Christian comic book. Or something. I don't really know.

Bdthemag, to be fair, there were several precedents for discussing misogyny based on things found on KS. So. It didn't just rise from the ocean.

But yes. Need less super serial KS discussion, and more Grade Y Kickstarters we can amuse ourselves with!

There was a kickstarter for a short movie where a bad of human survivers was attacked by possesed towels. Can't find it anymore though.

This is the kind of thing that my mind just wants to avoid in case someone catches me reading it.

Any permutation of the phrase "spicy Latina" makes me cringe.

The problem with this stuff has never been that existed at all, but the ubiquity. In video games, it's damn near impossible to find a non-scantily clad woman. Card games... I dunno, since I'm not really into them. Either way, I wouldn't single out individual examples as "bad" but rather point to the industry as a whole as being dumb and catering to a small portion of their audience.
Not really, actually not at all. There are plenty of decently dressed female characters, its just that the "OHSOEVILBOOBARMORIDONTEVENHAVETOEQUIP" gets blown out of proportion.
As for your other statement.

As for the card game itself I only have two things to say:
Shut and take my money
MY TRAP CARDS ARE MOVING ON THEIR OWN~

Waaaahhh? One is quantifiable in just about every major video game.

The other seems to be something you've cooked up off a specific example.

If we're talking about in-game immersion and sensibility, almost nothing compares to the absurdity of titty guards.
