thats the entire point lol
these "damsel in distress" characters perpetuate a stereotype that has existed for a long time that women are weak and need to be helped.

screw the chance of hooking up with the girl or saving friends. i want treasures and i dont want to be encouraged to use violence for the better good like all games sell us on. i wanna be indifferent to innocent characters who are being victimized. why do i have to pick sides anyway, that is what the weak female role was created for.

I want a character who is some mercenary who doesn't care about good or bad and just about the money so he is all like, "Here's the stupid girl, now where's my damn money so can get out of this rat hole."

I don't give a forget about gender. I care about character. I'll judge someone by the way the act and treat others, not by appearance.
