* WomenAreDelicate: The game's chauvinistic view of women was pointed out even when the game was in its competition days, with women being portrayed as inherently weaker than men. Despite several of the women in the game ostensibly having psychic powers or other combat skills, they are so childlike that the untrained, unremarkable (but male) protagonist has to constantly help them out. Laurie's introduction is all about how helpless she is and how she just needs a knight in shining armor to help her, implying that of course she just needs a man to make her complete. Katryn is supposed to be a master manipulator, but she still relies on a complete stranger (you) to achieve any of her goals and of course like all the ladies... she just wants a maaaaan.
