Sarkeesian’s base argument is completely sound.  Games could definitely stand to better represent women, in general.  However, a lot of her specific arguments are made I bad faith, mainly because she is not a game scholar.  She wanted to talk gender disparity and chose video games as her platform.  Because of that she has a ton of problems regarding confirmation bias or simply not understanding game mechanics - I don’t recall specifics, but there was one game that she talked about how you could get a higher score through violence, but it wasn’t a game that had “scores” at all.  I just wish that she wasn’t a major figurehead of the movement.
I think she also took money to create content and never delivered a product and screwed over the people around her.
