Tropes vs Women in Video Gaming - Damsel in Distress

To be fair, she did say that the next part will revolve around more recent games and even uses the exact words of throwing the trope on its head, so she'll probably display a counter argument in the next part.

In regards to the money, I really don't know. The amount of money the kickstarter raised was because of the horrific bullying that happened and it went way way over the original project goal.
In one of her updates which I was emailed, she mentions this as a possible direction the extra funds will go towards:
Quote:What we do know for sure is that the issue of harassment both in the gaming community and on the internet in general has sadly, become intertwined with this Kickstarter campaign so we're definitely going to include a substantial additional component to this project that will directly address the epidemic of misogynist, racist and homophobic online harassment.
