Squeenix sued in civil lawsuit by the women's lib...
After years of falsely portraying and exploiting female characters, the women's lib. unit has filed a class action lawsuit against the videogame company as well as several other famous game companies.
Ivam Aman (head of the Women's lib movement) : "It is appalling what these videogame companies are doing to our children these days. They teach our girls that they will always be shown up by men and teach boys that woman are brainless and lack any right to a personal opinion. It has to be put to a stop so that future generations will understand that we must learn to coexist as equals."
The oddest thing is the money the movement won in the settlement is being used for Square-Enix to go back and create PC versions of their popular games. VII will finally be remade but in this version, Aerith will not be killed (violence against women) and Tifa will have a breast reduction and will now where a less revealing outfit. FFVIII will now feature the sorcerous' as the good guys battling aginst a male figure who is head of a military power and tricking SeeD into believing the "witches" are evil. FFIX will have Vivi becoming a girl and will be featured more prominently, Yuna from FFX will have a complete change to her personality...
Ivam Aman: Yuna is the worst! She has no opinion of her own and is so weak willed in the story that the others have to reassure her of her "supposed decision". She teaches girls that we can't make decisions and we need a man around (Tidus) to finally get us to do anything. It's completely ridiculous.
Yuna will now be remade into a "modern woman" figure. She is confident and takes charge.
Nomura: Her personality will be similiar to Lady Ashe from FFXII.
Also noted for changes is Lulu and Rikku getting less revealing outfits (Victorian style anyone?) and FFX-2 is removed cause of it's over skimpy outfit and braindead story.
"Lightening" from the upcoming FFXIII is being changed as well. She will now be a "cute but chubby girl with a less than attractive face who is trying to show the male chauvanistic (sp?) world of FFXIII that when a girl puts her mind to it, she can be just as good as the guys regardless how she looks on the outside.
Many fans are in an uproar except for the the change in FFX that makes Tidus look more like Meg Ryan (now voiced by her as well). Go figure...
This would have all happened if it wasn't for the fact that most of their grounds are unfounded, it's highly illegal, and no one really cares
