NRS having the balls to describe MK11 Sindel as "empowering" and "don't need no man", when 90% of her characterization depends on how much she actually "loved" Shao Kahn + how she threatens male characters to be her love slaves is depressingly hilarious.
her whole character is both:
"ha, i tricked you! i actually betrayed my husband for this villain! he's so amazing! i love him and his power!"
"i will make this male character my love slave! i will chain my daughter like a dog! aren't i inspiring?"
"ha, i tricked you! i actually betrayed my husband for this villain! he's so amazing! i love him and his power!"
"i will make this male character my love slave! i will chain my daughter like a dog! aren't i inspiring?"
i also don't think it's a coincidence that the one female character that has been retconned to be an absolute piece of shit— is suddenly the most "openly sexual" and provocative character on the roster.
"well, we made her a piece of shit— might as well demonize her sexuality!"
"well, we made her a piece of shit— might as well demonize her sexuality!"
you can have flirty and sexy female characters without vilifying them, you know.
