Would you be ok with guy oriented eye-candy if there were more for women?

You never see guys complain that all the male characters are macho muscular guys with magical, never messy hair...

Actually, I complain about this constantly.

Why is my rogue, whom I envision to be a lithe scrapper, just as buff as my warrior, whom I envision to be Brawny McPowertool?

Has anyone ever played a Human Male Mage in World of Warcraft?  It's the same idea.

And I have to call you on this 'natural' bit. I have seen many a woman with Beth's proportions, natural women. It's more common than you think.


I strongly disagree. Besides you having no way of telling whether they're natural or not, girls know a lot of ways to make their breasts seem bigger without augmentation.

This is not normal, or even close to being common.


*sigh* I get that you have a crusade on against playing as a large breasted woman for some reason, but do you really have to start getting into what's "normal" or not? Women come in all shapes and sizes. Those who deviate from some defined "average" are not any less "normal" than any other. Human beings are variable. It's really not fair to simply single out one body type and declare that it is somehow abnormal. How about just leaving it as being not to your tastes?


Look up what normal means. If you're getting offended by what I'm saying, then you're missing the gist of what that is. I didn't intend put any negative connotations into the word. I'm sorry that you saw it that way.

And that chainmail outfit looks like it doubles as a girdle.


Well, he's joking, but that looks like no girdle I've ever seen.

Besides that, if she's actually wearing a chainmail girdle (the restricting kind, not simply the belt-kind) to battle, that takes things to a whole 'nother level.


Chastity Belt! Call the Locksmith!


And it's just the right size!

I don't understand why all these females are taking the whole big-breasted thing so seriously. You never see guys complain that all the male characters are macho muscular guys with magical, never messy hair... This is a video game... if you feel that females are misrepresented (in a video game... really?) than there are bigger things in your life to worry about.


2 things

1) I **** about it constantly. It's just that whenever I bring it up I get called a ****got and have realized my complaints fall on deaf ears.
2)For a lot of guys games seem to be about fulfilling some kind of fantasy and the avatar is part of that fantasy. Suddenly the player is some hulked out warrior of truth and justice with tons of DD's begging for his Sword of Might. I don't see that kind of behavior in women gamers but I don't know very many women who I'd call gamers.

Well, when you look at it that way you probably have better things to do than post here.


Good job replying to a logical point without a logical rebuttal. If certain females are really taking the whole representation in video games seriously, then they need to step back and rethink. For the whole male/female equality thing, I've never seen a male complain about anything he is skimped out on and never see a female mention it. Now it has gotten to the point where anything and everything is seen as offensive to feminity.

Refer to just about all of the arguments made previously about that exactly. There's a reason why all good fantasy is grounded in reality.

people have different standards of whats normal. i think u mean natural?


Nope, normal.:)  "Conforming to the standard or the common type; usual; not abnormal; regular; natural."


even so what you perceive as being normal could be totally different from someone else. Body types vary among different races and plus that link doesnt even show her whole body so whats there to see thats not "normal"?

Really? I've never heard that complaint anywhere. You do make an interesting point.
Personally, I've never had that fantasy. I don't envision myself as the character I play, so I have no problem with this; this is also why I have no problem with playing as female characters. However, this is just me.

Anyway, my point is that certain females take this whole thing way too seriously, and even begins to treat it as some sort of sexism. However, the underlying reason is so the graphic designers only need to really draw one set of body and reuse it over and over again. There is a practical reason underlying it.

Then he doesn't care. If he's not willing to mention anything, he doesn't care. Actually, judging by the wild success of games like Gears of War or movies like 300, men prefer for their heroes to be muscular, to appear powerful, and very masculine. Practically, a very fit man makes sense in these settings.

Women have said several times in this thread that more realism in male warriors is not a bad thing. We certainly wouldn't object to it. However, women avatars all looking like Playboy models do get on the bad side of women and stretch the plausibility of a fantasy world ground in reality.

Apparently. Though, to be fair, I do not believe they have to be video game boobs. Any pair seems to be sufficient.

Well, I like Gears of War and 300.
BUT
I don't prefer my heroes to have six-pack abs and giant muscles. It's a matter of taste, just like all the boobs thing.
