u/AltIsBannedToo

It seems like subreddits either are full of sexist, homophobic, transphobic old men, or they're censored and filtered to shit. I want a queer and/or women oriented subreddit to talk about games I like, which probably means a gacha subreddit because I'm really into Chinese RPGs most of which are supported by gacha and a lot of gamers are also insistent that makes them not "real" games, that's neither bigoted nor censored into oblivion by powertrippers.

The claim was that I, a mixed race lesbian trans woman, was being "racist, sexist, transphobic or homophobic", because I said a design that got leaked from NTE looked like Hiyuki(Wuthering Waves character with powers to draw from her other potential futures) "if she drew from a future in which she's a homeless stripper". I did not say "only women can be homeless strippers" or anything along those lines, so there really was nothing actually sexist or anything to ban me for covered in that rule, so honestly I think it was someone either salty about people making fun of NTE, or someone who wanted an excuse to tell a trans woman she's "sexist" for shit you absolutely know NO ONE and I mean NO ONE would accuse a cis woman of being sexist for saying, honestly I think because they view trans women as having to meet an ever increasing standard to "prove" womanhood or else viewing them as men, and wanted to call one "sexist" as a subtle "you don't belong here", absolutely no one would have said that to a cis woman and no one would have responded with refusal to cooperate and keeping me banned for that if I was a cis woman, so I do feel like it was an attack.

Don't brigade them or some shit just like, warning you what type of subreddit that is and I recommend not joining.

Should I create an r/QueensofGachaUncensored? Would anyone join that? I feel like we need a womens and queer friendly space for that that isn't censored to shit by powertripping mods that may be discriminating against you for the specific type of queer you are while being supposedly queer themselves. r/QueensofGacha saying it's "for the girls and the gays" clearly meant it's for the cis straight girls and cis gay men. The only rule I would put in r/QueensofGachaUncensored if people want me to make the sub would be no bigotry (and also no gore or awful shit like that), and we'd enforce actually being fully uncensored beyond disallowing bigotry. Would any of y'all want that/join if I made it?

Um, why was Rover able enter void space inside Aleph-1 to go find Aemeath and power up Exostrider, like, without being in the Exostrider? Why did she not like, idk get disintegrated or something? Are people just able to survive inside Aleph-1 just not able to find their way out normally? Or is Rover just like, built different or something?

Why do most games expect us to choose between a world that's pretty and whimsical, *or* sweaty mechanically intensive gameplay and flashy shit?

I don't want to pick 1 I want to do sweaty flashy shit *in* a pretty and whimsical fantasy land.

It feels like games that have sweaty flashy shit always either go more sci fi with more industrial looking things, or if they do go a more classic fantasy look, go a much more dark and grim looking fantasy world than I want.

Tbh I won't accuse individual games because it could very easily just be how the devs envisioned the world, but it feels like the industry as a whole seems to think girls don't want sweaty games, and girls are the usual demographic that plays games because they're pretty.

I've found so many games that have the type of combat I like *or* the type of world I want to be in, but WuWa's Rinascita region is the only time I've found both together, and it makes me a little sad that they've since moved on from that region and the current region doesn't make me feel like that. I don't dislike Lahai Roi but I would like it significantly more if you just redesigned the appearance of the technology to look less industrial and more magical.

I love tight dodge and parry timing, I love love LOVE quickswap, like omg I love quickswap so much, I love combos, and complex enough combos can make me feel like quickswap isn't required for the combat to feel good, I want one or the other.

I also love being in a beautiful fantasy land that feels whimsical and magical and full of places that feel special and make me stop just to take in how beautiful the world is. I love worlds I would want to live in.

Dark shit existing can be cool, but having a pretty world to defend from it actually honestly makes me more invested in it. Technology existing is fine but if it goes that route I want the kind of sci fi where the technology looks magical not industrial.

Does anyone have suggestions? It could be a gacha or a one time purchase game, either is fine. It doesn't need to be open world, as long as levels and cutscenes still make me *feel* like I'm inside of a beautiful fantasy world, the whole world doesn't actually need to be explorable, it needs to give a *feeling* and be pretty and artistic.

I also don't relate to or understand most men, and feel a lot more immersed in a world if I can move through it as a woman, so games with a female protagonist or selectable gender are preferred. though that's not a hard requirement.

I just want to be a girl in a whimsical fantasy land and kick ass stylishly with mechanically expressive/execution intensive gameplay, is that too much to ask for?

For context about me, I'm a hardcore WuWa quickswap girlie, who earlier had bounced off Genshin because the combat didn't initially click with me, even though I wanted to experience the world of Genshin.

I came back when I heard that Keqing has combos and still has some cancels even if some of the tech I had heard about was patched out and apparently only existed early game, and new players get a selectable standard 5 star.

After actually getting her from that selector, her moveset and animations do actually feel kinda crisp/tight, and while she isn't going to turn Genshin combat into WuWa combat, she does seem to make the combat enjoyable enough it doesn't feel like a chore I have to do to experience the world.

With that in mind, I don't really care if my team has *ideal* synergy or if they're considered *good*, I just want some characters who are good *enough* for overworld/quest combat, who have enough synergy to feel like a *team* and not just Keqing + 3 totally random characters, who will get me somewhat learning to use the reactions system though they don't necessarily need to have the *best*/ideal reactions for her, who will be fun to mash buttons on.

I would love if there are some other characters who have some sort of combos or cancels or tech or just together with her make for a high APM team comp in general, or some other interesting thing to learn that happens at an execution level and not just the planning/setup level, who aren't pure unobtanium who I will actually be able to get on my account fairly easily.

I also don't know if she has any of these things I've mentioned wanting in her gameplay or not, but I kind of want to play Lisa because the tall pretty lady is nice to me and I'm very very gay, and she's a starter so I already have her, so idk, is there a team with Keqing and Lisa that I will have fun with, that doesn't require any unobtanium characters?

In the past when I tried it, I wanted to like Genshin, but the combat didn't feel good to me and felt like too much of it revolved around setting up the right team and then having memorized the right order to do things, and not enough execution skill expression.

I recently heard that Keqing has or at least had cancels and combos that actually take mechanical skill, and that sounded cool, and I like her aesthetic, and she's a standard 5 star so actually at least somewhat attainable without having to wait indefinitely for a character I will like to play.

However [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/KeqingMains/s/exkDGaeb7i) I found when I looked things up about her cancels looks like at least some of her cancels got patched out. Does she still have tech, cancels, or combos that take mechanical skill that would interest me enough to make me able to experience Genshin without just getting tired of the combat or did everything cool she can do get patched out?

I absolutely love everything about the Rinascita region of Wuthering Waves, the Rinascita part of it specifically is probably my favorite video game, and honestly, after catching up with the main quest up to the current patch in WuWa, I'm a little bit sad that I started the game when they were already finished with Rinascita and the new region just doesn't hit me the way Rinascita does.

I mean I don't dislike the new region, it's fine, but honestly all the sci fi stuff looks too industrial for my liking and I just want to get lost in a beautiful fantasy land. Rinascita leaned really hard into the whimsical-magical-fantasy aesthetic and I love it so so much.

I really want a game, it could be gacha or a one-time purchase game, I don't care, where the whole thing gives me the feeling Rinascita in WuWa gives me, not just one region. If it's something live service/gacha I want the whole game to be committed to that aesthetic, not just one region that they will be done with at some point.

I also honestly don't relate to or understand the majority of men, and tend to get a lot more immersed in the world if I can play as a woman. This isn't a hard requirement, but it is a very strong preference, as I have a much easier time putting myself into a game's world if I can move through that world as a woman.

I am aware that there are lots of other games with a pretty fantasy land aesthetic, however I do also want something where I will get invested in the combat and I will enjoy and want to fight things to get stuff for my builds. I feel like a lot of action RPGs aren't really mechanically intense enough in the *action* part of the game for my liking. A lot of them feel like most of the skill happens in the setup *before* you go into a fight and in knowing the correct thing to do, and then the execution skill is just doing the correct things in the correct order and that feels like a lot of mostly memorization and isn't very fun to me.

I absolutely love things like tight dodge timing, parries, combos, cancels, techs, all that stuff. I only play quickswap teams in WuWa and while I don't expect a playstyle that revolves around a specific WuWa tech to exist in other games, but I want *something* that will let me do sweaty flashy button-mashy stuff with stuff you have to time well and things like that.

I feel like a lot of RPGs that *do* have the type of gameplay I want tend to either go more modern/industrial sci fi, or if they're going fantasy they go more gritty dark fantasy, and like...

I want a game that's pretty.

I don't wanna choose between sweaty flashy button-mashy stuff OR a whimsical fantasy world that makes me happy. I wanna do sweaty flashy button-mashy stuff IN a whimsical fantasy world that makes me happy.

It does not need to be open world or follow a similar format to WuWa at all, as long as it makes me feel like I'm in a whimsical fantasy land and I can do mechanically intensive gameplay things. A world shown mostly through cutscenes and artwork is fine, confined levels with pretty backdrops that make you feel like you're in a big world despite a relatively small amount of accessible space are fine. It doesn't even need to be in a typical RPG format; It could be another action RPG, but also I would try a fighting game, I would try a shooter, I would try a game from *any genre* if I can play as a girl in a pretty whimsical fantasy world with execution intensive action combat.

As of right now I have an Android gaming handheld, and a Nintendo Switch, but I am planning to replace my broken gaming laptop eventually so Android, Switch, or Windows is fine.
