Why does this tag exist?

because it describes a certain part of the game and some people care about that.

I like ass and tits

It denotes a game that goes against the majority

"Protagonistess" is not a word, and english is too underdeveloped to specify sex of object in question using parts of word, not pronouns.

Why does this tag exist?

>>379401191
Because male protagonists are so common, that they don't even need a tag. You just assume the game will have a male human. That's how boring the modern videogame is.

So homos and women can find the games they like

>>379401891
And women in battle thongs is such a refreshing, creative design

>>379401731
because there are shit and forgettable soundtracks?

It means the soundtrack is prominent in the game (and more than not really good), not some background forgettable noise like a CoD game or random real time strategy game.

The new Spelunky isn't pixel graphics, I guess you could replace that with Isaac Rebirth but that game is flawed due to Edmund being a fucktard.

>>379403293
Well, technically, any game that is rendered on a traditional monitor uses "pixel graphics." Only shit like the vectrex don't use pixel graphics.

I like playing games as girls more than playing games as boys. More games have male protagonists than female ones, so this tag helps me find games that cater to my tastes. Everything doesn't have to be liberal propaganda anon.

>>379401191
some people hate women and want to avoid such games. Id be ok with that if they allowed "30 fps" tag too.

>>379401191
So I can find games where I play as a cute girl easily.

"Features a female protagonist" is not a viable metric to judge a game by. It's meaningless. You might as well say "features the color blue" as a positive

But what if your success, in fact, has nothing to do with your race at all? What if all the factors which led to the European domination of the world were the result of sheer luck and geographical happenstance? Have you considered the possibility that you're not special? That your ideals and virtues are not even particularly unique, and just as easily as your kind claimed the throne of mankind, it could just as easily be lost? Who are you without your racial vanity? If we peeled back the veneer of "purity" and cut through the tangled roots of your misplaced entitlement, what might we actually find?
