Stupid, enraged, horny people living rent free in your head.

There are tons of mods like this for Skyrim, etc…and nobody cares because they aren’t accompanied by comments you can smell through your screen.
Oh no! Guy on the Internet made a rude comment about an NPC!
No, they made a rude comment about a person. It would have been fine if it just not made the comment.
What person? There’s no person in the pic.
Look I can’t help it if you can’t be bothered to actually do some thinking for yourself.
Most characters in games now are 3D scans of real people.
Stop being a jackass and stop trying to defend a defenseless position.
Oh that’s a scan? Fair enough, that changes the tone a bit.
Imagine being mad because someone objects to people debasing someone because of how they look.
Who was debased again? Oh right, a goddamn videogame character. Waaahhh!
You do know that the character is modeled off a 3D scan of the actress, right? And like they’ve literally taken her emotive mocapped performance and amalgamated it into a soulless “cutesy gf” because the former doesn’t make their dick hard. Then again, it’s my fault for expecting coomers to comprehend context and nuance…
Modding would be fine, they are complaining that games should never be made with real human women characters, only full-makeup fake plastic dolls.
Wokeness is when I can’t beat off to every frame of the media I watch.
He didn’t have to be retarded, but now he can’t be fixed, only replaced with another person
So … is someone ugly because of some dirt? Do people see only colours & not shapes?
Not to mention they are basically calling Melina Juergens ugly :D
Look at her! She has muscles! Those are basically a beard /s
Literally Abby from the last of us part 2! We let them do that and now look what happened! 😠 /s
I love women with muscles
As do I. But I’m a woman so I can’t even imagine what loops of logic the type of men like we’re mocking will have to say about why that is
My logic is that you have good taste
and beards
You’re in luck! All humans have muscles.
Whoahh awesome thank you
Nice
If only they’d actually played the game. She’s basically going through hell, makeup and hygiene are the least of her worries.
I was gonna say; isnt it basically a game about shit that should be ugly?
Fuck, let’s go find+replace every not-completely-gorgeous dude in film with like four near identical impossibly good looking photo shopped models. Make the dean of A/C repair in ‘community’ just beautiful and jacked and expressionless because he just shot up ten gallons of botox.
Also, what’s a fun ethnicity… The chad meme is a Turkish dude right? Let’s just make all guys in film Turkish or, since we need two… Japanese? Brazilian? Doesn’t matter, just pick two and no more white dudes. “Including” white people would be woke dei bullshit, let’s not compromise our standards just to include people, and why shouldn’t kratos be hot?

I’m sure she’s devastated. You a real catch aren’t you?
I can only imagine what this comment was, presumably some incel type shit, its nice to have moderators remove it promptly.

Not familiar with the game in question, but the photo on the left is not ugly. That’s angry. Common misconception.
Meanwhile the picture on the right looks like a college student fell onto some war paint and Instagram filters. That’s immersion breaking if this is supposed to be a crying/screaming/angry scene by a battle-hardened warrior, IMO.
I have played the first game and her being angry is not something out of the ordinary.
You’d probably be angry too if the only person to ever understand you was horrifically murdered along with everyone you ever knew.
Yeah, probably. I wouldn’t >!go around killing gods but yeah.!<
Bootlicker. /s
The one on the right looks like horrible cosplay.
Meanwhile, men in video games have looked like this for decades:
Men don’t constantly need to be fuckable.
Also, I can’t help notice how much Master Chief cribs his style from Samus Aran
Sorry, are you saying MC ain’t fuckable?
Same problems
Worth it!
Having played Hellblade Senua’s Sacrifice, in the beginning I admit I looked at her and didn’t see “modern day beauty standard” but then one has to consider that it is a game set during a viking era. Then I realised I need to then consider that I cannot apply “modern standards”.
I mean she wasn’t ugly in my eyes, just I guess appeared somewhat plain which is not a slight against the actress but more as an aquired appreciation to how they designed her but when you really look at the details it is perfectly acceptable to see what they did get right. It is a person that has gone through a lot and of course she is going to look not “clean” considering what baggage she is carrying and where she is coming from.
It is not some future world were mud and dirt don’t magically stick to your skin, it is a realistic portrayal of a person going through a lot of dirty places, being a bad ass and losing her collective mind with a story that explores someone with mental illness in a time when it was considered a “gift” from the gods if you were lucky.
Not sure of the game in question, but this completely changes the vibe…
The one on the left is clearly meant to be some kind of angry vicious killer, the one on the right looks like some random goth girl
Is this the same person who was upset that Aloy has facial hair?
The same people who claim Stellar Blade’s Eve is peak design because she’s “based on an actual model!”, also continuously rag on Aloy while forgetting Aloy was also based on an actual model.
I’d take a hundred Aloys over Eve. Aloy is more natural to me, I’ve seen far less women that look like eve than I have women who look like Aloy.
Also it would be artistically strange to make Aloy conventionally beautiful in 21st century supermodel standards. The game is heavily about the divine feminine and Aloy is living off the land. She should have a bit of a belly, no cosmetics, functional hairstyling, and muscles.
Eve just looks…unnatural. She is, obviously, since she’s basically a full-body cyborg, but she really hits the uncanny valley for me.
People just don’t look like that. Stellar Blade probably could’ve benefitted from a more stylized art style, instead of one that can’t decide whether or not it wants to be realistic.
Never heard of Stellar Blade till this post, that’s when I looked it up and my gut reaction was basically “No… just… no”
It takes a lot to uncanny valley me…
She looks like a character from dead or alive beach volleyball, so of course they approve.
No, those look like an exaggeration of a human and are pleasant to the eye. Especially Kasumi, loooove her.
Eve looks like a haunted mannequin trying and failing to emulate beauty so I’ll be less scared of her, and it’s backfiring horribly.
I think there’s definitely space for both in the industry
absolutely hate the schmucks that want everyone to be a NIKKE: Goddess of Victory character tho
Yeah seriously. Even if your goal is peak beauty,(I’ll try anything once) and you think there’s only one static eternal standard that matters(insane) part of how you achieve that is contrast with ugliness, both static and dynamic.
I’ll say this referencing a German, so these people can understand. To paraphrase hegel: ‘everything exists in a context, it cannot exist without context, and if it could, that would basically be god. Which doesn’t look like a hot lady, because ‘looking’ like things is the product of reflected light or touch and this hypothetical thing does not have context’
Well yeah it’s how these people wind up with ratcheting expectations. Hot as fuck in rural nowhere is fine in a major city and probably ugly in LA. And if most of the women you see are models who’ve been airbrushed and are in the most male gazey presentations suddenly a gorgeous woman who looks somewhat realistic becomes extremely ugly in your eyes. It’s a critical deficiency of grass touching.
All true and worth saying, but its also a misunderstanding of how beauty and meaning are constructed.
Of course there is space for both. In a total fantasy game, like Nier Automata, or Bayonetta, or Stellar Blade, crafting an impossible beauty can just be part of the tone, or story craft. In Nier, the female androids are beautiful and the male are children because the male dominated society that invented them designed them that way, beautiful women and non threatening men, interesting commentary on today’s society for a game set thousands of years from now.
But in a game going for a gritty realism, or a grounded type of experience, like the Last of Us, or Horizon Zero Dawn, realistic looking characters with faces molded by lived experience is what will make the game immersive, and sell the experience to players. Abby looks like a woman driven by revenge, spending her days in the weight room and pounding back ration burritos in preparation.
These folks don’t seem to get that, they want every game to star 2B, and they have no idea what 2B’s design is saying about humanity. Art is lost to them.
Exactly! I’ll always come back to the first time I saw this argument with gamers losing their shit over Ellie in borderlands. Like in a game where every character is a cartoonish exaggeration of hillbillies and other rural poor folks they had a problem with a fat horny lady.
These people don’t want art to speak to them, they want it to entertain them and flatter them while lacking any message or themes. And they feel threatened by the reminder that women exist even when we aren’t pretty and available
Imagine being so pathetic you can’t handle a woman with a good battle cry.
They hate women, so yeah. it fits
with a ton of that crowd, they really have no idea what strength is. but they so badly want to appear strong, as they assume that will make others around them think they actually are strong.
it’s a sort of projection. they’re weak, so they worry that others will perceive them as weak. it locks them into a constant obsession with appearing strong, so people won’t realize how weak they are.
the fallacy in all that is assuming that other people care, most don’t, as most are locked into their own various insecurities and are usually worried about how they appear to the world.
real strength, and other qualities, isn’t worried about what others think. it’s like being cool. you’re not cool if you have to go around and tell others how cool you are. if you’re cool, others will recognize that pretty quickly. if you’re not cool, no amount of faking it will ever make others think you are.
Not to mention, the left is what strength looks like. It’s grimy, raw, and sweaty. There’s screaming and pain and struggle.
I am out of the loop. What game is this?
Senua 2
Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice. Gonna guess it’s specifically the second one coming out
I wish I were ugly and gay so that I could be woke. Instead I’m just ugly.
Angry women?
✋
Too political for me.
Anyone else remember them noticing Aloy from Horizon Forbidden West had tiny hairs on her face? Apparently that meant she was trans. Sorry for not waxing in a robot dinosaur apocalypse, lads.
That was a fun moment in “Terrible at women’s anatomy”.
Senua. Of all the video game characters they had to cry about Senua being not sexy enough.
I would think of this as some kind of joke. But sadly I know better. Pathetic.
Right? The fucking woman has a mental crisis after the love of her live died and they go “but she isn’t a well groomed super model”…
