Daddy Arthur vs Twink Arthur

As a gay, I'm fine with either. Hell, I'll take both.

I want to see them fuck each other.

I mean playing as a young arthur would make a really cool side story

I'm not following, what's the problem here?

There was another game where a woman was covered in mud or something and screaming in agony, and the face app chsnged it to look like a flirty young model in her late teens. This is the male version as a joke because men and women are held to very different standards.

Isn't the male version a muscle bound, assertive, over-achiever?

Depends who's doing the gazing

No, it is the male version of turning someone into a young model.

I think this is playing off another post where someone complained about a female character being "ugly" when she's a character in a game about mental illness and her fight for survival.

Yeah it's going to be ugly... That's the point. The actual person they modeled the character off of is actually very attractive. People are just absurd though... Why can't we have ugly characters? Why should you be sexually attracted to every character you see?

Also: I'm sick of baby teenager main characters like that second image lol

This reminded me that there's a mod on Nexus for Dying Light 2 that replaces the female character, who's not even a playable character, with a different model (that's also white instead of black), just because GaMeRs didnt find her attractive enough.

I'm guessing this is hellblade, but the same criticisms were fired at Horizon Forbidden west as well

It's fucking dumb.

The satire went over the guy's head

Someone thinks Arthur Morgan is an ugly character, so they used ai to make him look "handsome".

[–] Starkstruck@lemmy.world 16 points 7 months ago

This is satire making fun of a bunch of men saying this kind of thing about female characters first.

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 6 points 7 months ago

Fucking lmao

[–] Pulptastic@midwest.social 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

But the left one IS ugly. Maybe he's beautiful on the inside.
