Maybe. It’s impossible to know. If it is rage bait, it definitely worked.

There were very real tantrums about this. Look at the reaction to the new God of War.

Pretending like incels don’t whine about the “integrity of their games” and “woke bullshit” is silly.

I know. Just saying it’s not clear in this instance. It seems almost too ridiculous to be real, but it could be.

Even if that particular post was for some reason not real, that was a very common complaint about Aloy’s design.

Bizarre. Even from their perspective, they should like it, because it makes her look more real.

Incels don't typically like real women. They live in a fantasy/nightmare world.

These are the types of guys that prefer women completely hairless I’d wager.

That and they haven’t been around enough women in real life to realize that women are also covered in hair just like men.
