Arbitrary? (Destiny)

I like Fillion, too, but what Destiny needed was more character development and interaction.

This is part of the reason why the number of men and women in Destiny doesn't matter. When I look at whether a work is sexist, I look at the overall message, theme, treatment of women, and attitudes towards them. When you have a game like Destiny, a game that isn't really about anything, you can't even really call it sexist at all, because it doesn't make any statements, explicit or implicit, about women. Everybody in the game is kind of just there.
