Title
A Bechdel test for computer games?
Goal
To establish what a bechdel test for games should look like and how far there is progress towards meeting it.
Description
The Bechdel test for film suggests that a film should a) have at least 2 women characters b) they should talk to each other c) about something other than men. This simple test of female roles in film has produced a lot of discussion and some change in film practice. But how about computer games? Is there an equivalent test? How would it apply? is there any progress towards meeting such a thing?
