What the hell do these people want in their games? Supermodels? Porn stars?
My guess would be they want both of those things. Related ice-cold take on the Horizon series:
It feels like ppl that post these takes have been watching too much hentai: giant tits that defy gravity, waists with no ribs, attracted to ugly bastards that just exist, etc.
I looked at BGrizzy1989's tweets so no one else has to, and hooboy. Pro-Trump, transphobic, anti-woke, fat-shaming. As one might expect, it takes a pretty gross human being to freak out about less-than-supermodel looks on a video game character.
Probably the same people that mod those games to make the female character to look like overinflated balloons. I looked for interesting Horizon mods recently and a stupid amount of them were Aloy "enhancements" that defy realism in any way.
Based on this image and a similar one I saw...it's makeup. They want female characters to wear makeup. They either don't know that makeup is what makes them, "hot," or they realized that it's stupid for a space outlaw or a robot-apocalypse survivalist to be wearing a full face of makeup, so they have to say they're ugly. Either way, these people don't fuck.
Yeah, it's all the same guys that inspired this meme.
LOL, yes, exactly. This is the kind of thing you learn about women when you have a girlfriend for more than a month. I think most of these guys don't realize they're telling on themselves when they complain about these, "ugly," characters.
ah yes the very famous Nora tribe makeup and makeovers
Hahaha the famous Nora dental plan
The overall view of beauty in women is already heavily skewed in general.
I still remember when that cop got caught fucking half her coworkers and 90% of the comments about it were about how she was mid when she was actually quite pretty.
Yes. They want fake women that don't exist.
Meanwhile, Dark Souls players be like:
The peak of humanity. I think everyone agrees.
As a male gamer, I never would have played half-life if Gordon Freeman wasn’t so handsome.
Who cares about the face? It's the 130$ price tag that's really off-putting.
Damage control. The publishers want to put the incels on blast to divert attention away from the price tag backlash.
To be fair that does look bad, not on a character design level, but because it looks like this character was rendered by a Dreamcast
Something tells me that's not a 'female gamer'
Nah, individual gamer girls can be pickmes if they want. Equal opportunity shittiness 💚
I’m not going to buy it because it’s overpriced, has season passes, and will almost certainly be infected with Denuvo malware… because Ubisoft just has to ruin everything they touch.
The MC looks awesome, though.
I've seen a couple of pics of the character and god damn she is soooooo my type. At that point I'm guessing every women that's doesn't look a 12 years old or have gigantic boobs and some asian baby face are considered ugly by "gamers"? Are all the gamer's mom ugly?
Soft butch pan women tend to really do it for me. Not a fetish or anything, just an observation about myself.
They're obviously going for a ripley-esque archetype which definitely does appeal to people.
Don't play the game because it's gonna be some microtransaction bullshit not because you find the mc unattractive.
Man, the number of times I, a male gamer, have played as an ugly dude...
DRM on the installer and these superficial dumbasses are worried about this?
What is this woke bullshit. Late 70s/early 80s fashion has no place in star wars.
Hot take: Others want games to be superhero stories and others want games to be normal people stories.
No need for conflict as people are different and seeking different things.
Yeah but the former is loud, obnoxious and misogynistic about it. Whereas the latter is only heard from to call out the former.
yall really should be more upset that its an RPG type game in the star wars universe with tons of interesting aliens and races + new unknown main characters.. but no you have to play as a milk toast human again. for a 70$ i expect there to be at least the "human" aliens. for a 130 though it would have to have playable ithorians, hutts, and B'omarr monks
New low point... Intimidated by the chick that's actually interesting. Look how ugly shes is when piloting a spaceship and fighting bandits. No one could ever think that's hot, riiiiiight ?
I'd hit that any day over a wimpy bimbo bitch.
oh fuck she has cheekbones, western society is now lost
Wow.... Guess we are lucky PacMan is sexy AF otherwise no one would have played it.
Okay, so the hair isn’t doing her any favors, but so fucking what? That’s just personal opinion, and it’s no reason not to buy the game.
That is one of the most idiotic reasons not to play a game.
