Video game lovers will get a chuckle out of this.

Just a few days after the "10 Hours of Walking in NYC As a Woman Video" went viral- some video game developers decided to poke a little fun at the video using characters from the video game Archaeage.

Archaeage, a multi-player, role-playing game that looks like something out of Game of Thrones, allows users to "choose their own path" and "play their way" across different continents in a fantasy world.

 

 

Several characters dressed as knights in the game say things like "sup beautiful" as the female character walks through the woods wearing nothing but a dress and boots.

"Could you dress anymore provocative?" One female character asks.

For reference, here's what the character looks like.

The original video over the past few days has seen its fair share of criticism for calling out cat-callers, but cutting out white men.

Slate writer Hannah Rosin noticed the difference right away in her piece:

The one dude who turns around and says, “Nice,” is white, but the guys who do the most egregious things—like the one who harangues her, “Somebody’s acknowledging you for being beautiful! You should say thank you more,” or the one who follows her down the street too closely for five whole minutes—are not.

At least in this parody, men and women from all Medieval walks of life are well-represented.
