Is Heroes 6 as Misandric as What I Read in Wikipedia?
Hi guys, so I decided, I might give Heroes 6 a chance since there might be more to it than just the feminist political correctness. The bugs would be a great annoyance though but hey, it might be worth it.
So, I read the plot in Wikipedia and once again, the men are portrayed as these evil douchebags (Anton, Gerhart, etc) while women, if they did something bad like Anastasya, they have a reason for it. They always do. All non-demonic women are good all along, they just have a good reason for doing something bad, like being mind controlled or manipulated by a Necromancer.
And I can see a good amount of men died: Liam Falcon, Gerhart, Slava, Pavel, Uriel?, Michael And no woman died at all. Well, you can argue about Anastasya but what I mean is someone who we will never see again. Or someone that is not tagged as "Alive".
Yeah I know Anton is a way for story writers to rewrite Isabel in a male form except no Markals and more hypocrisy but you can at least sympathize with Isabel because she wasn't the evil crazy douchebag puppet master.
BTW, I love Markal, I'm just tired of all non-demon evil characters are male and all females are good little angels plot

And what do you complain about? That's a war, who must die in war, in the frontlines?)
And yeah, saying no woman died means you did very little research about plot. Well, your whole post is an example of plot interpretation shaped for trolling ;-)

Doesn't Kate die? The big shadow dragon lady?
Also, if you take every campaign including DLCs and expansion, there's 2 lady heroes to 8 male lead heroes. The ladies are playing sidekick a lot though. Talk about feminism lol

Legion of lust, I'm telling you...
Besides, hell still didn't have a legion themed towards the succubi. I think Kiril decided to be the ladies' man, although a man leading the succubi legion is kinda hilarious.
