I for one can not even begin to grasp the outrage at people critiquing certain aspects of popular culture.

You bring up Hitman, so I take it we're talking about Sarkeesian here. It's not like her videos say "these games are misogynistic filth and you are a bad person for liking them." The point is simply that there are certain recurring themes in how various groups (in this case women) are represented, which can be viewed as conveying a negative message. In many cases it may not even be deliberate, but rather a reflection of stereotypes that exist in our culture.

I see absolutely nothing objectionable in people wanting to talk about those things.

I agree that some of these opinions are quite valid, Women play a distress a trope quite often in video games. But she has branched out in recent years with quite a few more controversial opinions that many disagree with. Most recently during E3, she was complaining quite a bit about "violence and gore in videogames", with arguments often mirroring those of Jack Thompson in the early 2000s.

I don't agree with her views on violent games. I mean, it wouldn't be Doom without gut-splattering chainsaw killing.

That being said, I think it's reasonable and potentially even valuable for people to question the fact that violence is the default mode of interaction for many if not most games. If anything, that might serve as a prompt for some developers to come up with more innovative game mechanics.

I see your point, critiquing a medium is the only way for it to evolve.

Exactly. I don't think that she meant that she wanted Doom to turn into a game where combat isn't a part of it's core mechanics, but was pointing why the majority of the games at E3 still rely on combat to as a means of interaction between players and the game. And like you said there's nothing wrong with bringing that up or having that opinion, but people who already hate her will look for anything to continue the (extremely asinine) narrative that Anita is literally Hitler and is out to destroy vidya.
