Kind of feels like a stylistic choice here, with spelling going off the rails as soon as they start talking about ugly.

Nothing drives engagement like spelling mistakes.

Fable "fans". Motherfuckers probably never heard of it before.

Original Fable MC was a carricatural looking man lol.

The entire "drama" around Fable's MC not being conventionally attractive is one of the worst things to come out of Twitter. Such a large amount of people genuinely believe that women in media literally only exist to be objectified and sexualized. It's on a long list of proof that gamer culture as a whole is one of the most toxic, misogynistic, and delusional cultures online and in the first world.

If you think the Fable bullshit was bad, wait til you see what those troglodytes are still saying about the objectively gorgeous and arguably very sympathetic Aloy of the Horizon games 🤦

I don't think Oblivion players in particular have any choice in playing non-ugly character.

You do, it just takes an absurd amount of time and precision to morph that blob into something adequate

Or use some mods.

Come to think of it, i played an orc in unmodded Oblivion.

Did my ten year old son write these captions?

Imagine using mods

These goons don't watch Monster Factory either, I bet. Truck Shepard Kush, babay.

So, some guys whose only sexual experience comes from watching hentai think a video game character looks ugly. Why should we care?

It's not on purpose; you just can't make anything other than gross abominations without mods that make the facial gen system good.

Dark Souls/Elden Ring, on the other hand...
