Are women better represented in today’s gaming industry? Are there stereotypes that need to be broken down? Are female characters in video games always portrayed as strong, independent women? Are they usually depicted as the damsel in distress, or are there other possibilities? Listen to Geoffrey Bunting discuss how he decided to write about feminism and focus on the lack of diversity in the gaming industry.
One of the main reasons Geoffrey, as a disabled person, decided to write about feminism and focus on the lack of diversity in the gaming industry is to try and unify and turn marginalized voices into one.
