Real women have eyes the size of small plates, their head is twice as wide as their hips and they don't have visible noses, unless viewed from the side.

Wait a minute, have women been Greys this entire time?

I'll never forget when people lost their shit over the Horizon Zero Dawn protagonist having peach fuzz on her face.

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The thing that got me was that they bothered.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 9 points 1 year ago (7 children)

What, you think they have lip-waxing in the apocalyptic far future?

You mean the people who are getting paid loads of money to model characters all day? I wonder why they bothered too. /s

[–] Saltblue@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

And mocap actress was so pretty they had to tone down the alloy model, and make it uglier, in TLoU2 Abby's man body model, when they could have used a women's body model.

it's truly a artistic choice? Or it's the devs badly disguised fetish?

[–] underisk@lemmy.ml 48 points 1 year ago

What fetish are you suggesting the employees of these companies in the chain of approval for these decisions all coincidentally had in common for it to make it out to a public audience unchallenged?

To be fair that does look like a dude

[–] Elivey@lemmy.world 87 points 1 year ago (3 children)

You seriously need to go outside if you think that looks like a man holy fuck

[–] Redrum714@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

it’s okay kid, you’re allowed to be attracted to men with long hair.

[–] Elivey@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I am attracted to men with long hair.

Don't know what that has to do with this picture though, this doesn't look like a man.

[–] Remmock@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

It’s Homelander in a red wig.

[–] DavidGarcia@feddit.nl 7 points 1 year ago (5 children)

The constsnt push for realistic graphics has created this kind of paradox where Gamers want games to look 1:1 like real life but they also have no idea what a normal human woman looks like.

[–] ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Honestly, my first thought was that she looks like a younger Amy Dumas (aka Lita from WWE). It's really pretty weird that people are so quick to say she looks like a man just because she doesn't look like a waif.

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 year ago

Can I have games that look like Deep Rock Galactic but higher framerates and more zombies and more emergent gameplay dynamics?

Also devs who aren't crunched and are well paid so they can parent and touch grass sometimes too.

If I had to guess: Harry Potter takes his glasses off, makes love to Frodo, and they have a beautiful baby boy.

[–] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 30 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

She looks like an average woman. People who go outside and interact with people understand that not every woman looks like a supermodel

[–] Redrum714@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

People who go outside and are not socially inept unlike yourself also realize some women can look like a man at a glance.

[–] TheBlue22@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Funny ad-hom definitely helps your argument

If this is what a "woman that looks like a man" is to you, you have not met enough women

[–] CeruleanRuin@lemmings.world 14 points 1 year ago

Or men for that matter.

no srsly. deeply. honestly.

WTF?

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looks a bit like Kristen Stewart in that screenshot.

There's just a lot of neckbeards out there that assume any woman with a better chin than them (and that's not difficult) is a man.

Good ol sexism from people wholl never touch grass, cause that requires them to go outside for once

[–] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

I think, "Alloy has a beard." Is the best example of this.

[–] SapphironZA@lemmings.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nah, it's only Bethesda that does not know.

[–] onion@feddit.de 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Can somebody explain the re-Xed X?

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 56 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The straightest Peter (parker) got the manliest MJ (Mary Jane), sadge (twitch emote for sad/cringe). It's a chud being a chud about Mary Jane not being fuckable enough for their tastes in a spiderman game, because that's an opinion people have now I guess

[–] Remmock@kbin.social 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

To he fair regarding the facts, MJ is supposed to be far more attractive than a “normal” woman and way out of Peter’s league. She fixes his fashion and gets him to ditch the glasses.

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemm.ee 33 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Idk, after a quick google I think this portrayal of MJ is faithful. Perhaps that's just me/my tastes. She's well above average. I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone that could honestly say that she's average/below average.

Within the confines of comic books and adjacent media, perhaps she's not as attractive as originally intended due to the hypersexualization of people in this genre. That's more of a comment on the social conditions that lead to this trope rather than if she's fuckable or not though

[–] Remmock@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Eh, fair shakes.

There like 56 versions of MJ and some have wildly different character traits, visual features, and relationships with Peter, to claim that MJ is "supposed to be" anything just betrays ignorance of the franchise

Can you explain the straightest Peter part too?

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 6 points 1 year ago

I can't.

I guess I missed the part in Spider-Man Homecoming, where Peter and Ned cupped each others balls...

[–] objectionist@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

you mean the retweeted tweet? because why the fuck would you show a corporation manners

[–] Nepenthe@kbin.social 22 points 1 year ago

I'm enjoying that their question really was gibberish to me before you put it in normal terms. May it always remain that way

[–] Heavybell@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Ah yes. Gamers are the oanes who want to push graphics to 1:1 with reality.

[–] SRo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 year ago

But she looks like shit
