If you go to Sweden for game design master program, you'll likely be taught that Cloud Strife is a classic transgender character design

They tell you what they are doing and then get mad at you if you quote them.

He only posted what they said

"...posting such a post would have a serious negative impact on the school..."

I would have been like "I'm just trying to spread your values by showing them to the world. This is missionary work."

Holy fuck man, this is the type of shit that explains SO much. And what a waste of everyone’s time. These people are trying to get into the gaming industry, during a transitional period where we’re moving more away from this.

Why the fuck is Lara Croft tagged as "men with breasts"?
Probably because according to them, she's not really a woman till she starts crying about her emotions.

Cant be a cool stoic woman who is a badass. Thats reserved for men obviously.

So she's basically a man in their eyes

Thats what I assume

Well I mean. If you play FF7 (especially Remake & Rebirth), it's difficult NOT to see Cloud somewhere on the "Queer" spectrum.
Look:

1. Is turned off by Jesses continuous advances.
2. Reluctantly dresses in drag.
3. Blushful responses to Roches homoerotic taunts.
4. Makes innuendo filled comments about Roche, in Rebirth.
5. Hesitant around approaching the ladies.

What else are they going to put this twink through!?

He's clearly not gay, but he sure as hell isn't drawing straight lines.

Anyway. Sweden is a mess, but she's sort of right. *not really*

Well, the remake is being made by the kingdom hearts team. Who finds Sephiroth attractive. Which I think explains why cloud is surrounded by hot women, but dreams of Sephiroth.

This is not even getting into the woke consultants they used.

Interesting take, I just assumed Cloud was an introvert with severe mental health problems due to PTSD. I never considered he might just be bi.

What the fuck? Can't any of the news about Sweden be normal for once. Imagine having to pay for this class as a foreign student. But if these things are normalized already in college then it's not wonder why we're seeing worse and worse character designs in Western games.

I don't particularly think Cloud (or any of the Squaresoft PS era) to be particularly gay. It's a typical Asian in general and Japanese in particular androgynous look. I guess the same could be said about Japanese visual kei rock bands.

Stuff like this felt like conspiracy theories back in the day, but are now probably part of gender theories:





All the testosterone-filled vikings probably left Sweden and either went to create what became Russia or stayed in places like Scotland and Iceland.

U laughing but they did social experiment in sweden, vid is from 4years ago, notice big difference how swedish men react to voilence vs a woman vs last guy- polish imigrant :p

Lets just say: "Co jest kurwa?" was understood imediatelly w/e any translation needed even tho that pole didnt speak even tiny bit of swedish/english xD

Little clue about Japanese culture. Cloud's cross dressing, which they are referencing to a degree, is a clear reference to Yamato Takeru, the hero from folk legend and story probably every Japanese knows (like King Arthur or Nibelungen saga in Germanic parts of Europe) and which was referenced many times in popular culture, video games like Persona 4 among them.

If Legend was meant to avoid male gaze they failed miserably.
Hell the entire Trilogy had pretty good looking Laras.

Legend also had this outfit:

And Modern Lara?
If the concept art was supposed to be androgynous the modeler didnt get the memo.
Cuz both versions look feminine to me.

And even in Shadow of the Tomb Raider (least attractive IMO) shes not bad compared to some of the beasts we see these days.

After seeing what the School did...

It's probably the first time that a "scholar" asked to not be quoted.

Distorting reality to this point isn't sane.
I also feel like his person hasn't gamed much, what is this person doing teaching about game design?

As a swede this is 0% surprising unfortunately. You'd have a hard time finding a society, state and culture that is more effeminate.
Move north. The further you go the better it is if you don’t like that lbtq pandering, assuming you’re okay with 8+ months of winter…. Or move to Finland. I don’t live in a progressive area, trans people could be aliens for all I know, never seen either one, never met a lesbian and the only gay person I know I’m no longer sure is gay and it’s something you just don’t talk about. I assume there are lots of closeted gay people, or they’ve all moved idk. I can’t relate to anything going on in western games, or this course.
