RPG Maker Forums

In the 1985 comic Dykes to Watch Out For, two women discuss seeing a film and one of them explains that she only goes to a movie if it satisfies the following requirements:
  1. The movie has to have at least two women in it,
  2. who talk to each other,
  3. about something besides a man.
That's how the Bechdel test was born, a method to evaluate gender gap in the media. Though these three steps may sound very simple, an incredible amount of movies don't pass it. Some of the most famous sagas, such as The Lord of the Rings, The Dark Knight, and Back to the Future don't pass the test.

The Bechdel test has been widely used to identify problems regarding gender equality on the media. It should be noted that those films that are directed (or co-directed) by at least one woman are more likely to pass the test, as women have a less androcentric perspective.

So, share with us your thoughts: Does your game pass the test?

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
