First of all, let's be clear: you're being disingenuous in saying "any critical philosophical analysis." It is feminist and only feminist (read: misandrist) analysis that is unwelcome.

Criticism through other lenses has been largely welcomed or ignored. Would gamers lose their shit at a "Marxist analysis of Final Fantasy VII"? No, they'd probably be indifferent or even very interested. They might even buy books about it.

The reason is that feminist "criticism" of games by males, for males is intrinsically misandrist.

The titles males choose to make and play reflect male self-definition: what we want. To attack our fantasies is to attack us. Males like to fight and like to fuck. So, naturally, that's what we'll make media about, and that media sells.

When a feminist says "it's wrong to want to fight and fuck", they're essentially saying "it is wrong to be male; you must change your nature." But, we males can't change our nature. So, it's fight or die. There's no compromise to be reached.

This is what we males, in our own subculture, choose to make and buy. Pretty, sexy girls and lots of violence. Saving princesses.

What right do women and their supplicants have to criticize media by males, for males? They don't. They should make their own or leave.

But they don't. They whine. They complain--but, they're unnecessary.

So, basically, feminism is misandry. Talk shit, get hit. They should leave.
