Why do western devs make female characters uglier in their games?

Isabel from Fable come on.
Thats a stretch find her mid animation and pull that........thats just nitpicking and finding fucked up frames.
Even Cortana is stretch though she peaked at 4 and was alright in 5.
Even Senua is a stretch.
Akila isnt a banger but shes not "uglified" like many examples in the thread, shes just seen some shit.

So with more Ai magic we gave her that back from the dead look which everyone is crutchin on and even here... I'd still absolutely take her to smashville, she looks still attractive way more than what they've done with her imo.
She also looks like the actual actress and not some meth head. Would be cool, though, if she regained her power throughout the game and she slowly started looking like her old self before the magic barrier drained the life out of her.

What do I know lol
 
Everytime I see Elliott you can't tell me there isn't regret from being one of the literally handful of 10/10 Women to.... This... Dude looks fucking miserable 24/7

Yea she absolutely massacred herself. The only t bag I'll give any merit to is Jenner, that dude knows his role.. He knows he's biologically a male he knows men dont belong in women's sports, he just chooses to live this way and I say fine go for it. It's the bending of rules that I and I feel everyone else takes major offense to.

An aside: I *STILL* can't get over Joel McHale hosting The Soup (I'm old) and talking about "Is Bruce Jenner transitioning?" YEARS before it ever came out. I need to talk to him about some stock picks.
ANYway --- back to the thread.

Yea I'm old also I watched when John Henson and Greg Kinnear hosted lol

But like I said Jenner at least stays in his lane and I can dig that.

I mean, even Ellie in post apocalyptic world (that IS realistic with no magic etc.) looks far more attractive than many current sony leads.

But of course cuckman still fucked up some character designs:

I prefer the TLOU of ps3 honestly

They looked much better and had more charisma in their expressions.

Sir, what are you doing? This is an echochamber.

You're not wrong.

In the before times I had a thing for Elliot. Right around my age. In all the movies I liked.

I could literally cry about it but I won't.

On non-woke things, the game Until Dawn, the OG edition heavily featured the male gaze and made all the characters as hot as possible. So did The Quarry. I'm not sure what happened with directive 8020 bullshit but I'm in for Until Dawn 2.

Jenny actress is not too attractive so they modeled her close to 1:1:

Haiyley looks better (but Isabele model is pretty good - it just doesn't look like her):

Their latest game (CP2077 PL in 2023) had banger female designs and they already changed that weird Ciri character model from the teaser (in UE5.6 demo).

When it comes to them I have wait and see approach.
If there will be no transgenderism, uglified characters and pronoun crap then its fine. Looks like there pride crap is just for money reasons maybe from blackrock or antifa or soros.

Aside from appearances, the last thing I want to see being compromised is CDPR's writings. Mature, immersive, resonating and amusing. Those are even more rare than hot women in video games nowadays.

I hope people see the connection between this thread and what's going on at Xbox. These people dug themselves into this hole. Ninja Theory popularised that whole ugly woman pulling gross faces while fighting thing with Hellblade that you see in God of War Laufey. Obsidian make giant RPGs without a single beautiful woman in them. And on and on. Sony is next, but we know they still have the fanboys by the short and curlies.
 
And crazy how the life has been sucked from her eyes. When she was girl, her eyes were shining. Now "it" is just a miserable existence.


What do they like big jaws?
She already had kinda of an important jaw even in the first one but now her transition into an ugly karen is complete.

She looked much more feminine and normal in Quantum Break.

Remedy is compromised
She look much worse in some pics, you are new to gaf but i remember the debacle back in the days, the real model is better looking and they clearly have the tech to scan faces 1:1.

But if you compare it to the new game there is a big difference. They really went all the way into making her look really bad lol
