Nevertheless, that's not what's going on here. I can almost buy the Garrus romance, because they didn't make him more human looking in order to have Shepard involved with him. It's making aliens fit human ideas of attractiveness so people can enjoy being Captain Kirk that I take issue with.

 

Humanification of aliens is a very common thing in sci-fi in general.

 

I suspect that Garrus and Tali were not intended romances until BioWare saw how popular they were with fans in Mass Effect 1. After that, it's not like you're just going to change the appearance of an entire species. Plus, Turians are still pretty human shaped to begin with.

 

When it comes to a lot of female characters, we still have the tendency to want to make them sexy looking. Tali was very obviously designed that way even if she wasn't a LI yet. The ME3 collector's edition art book straight up admits that Ash's reworking was to give her "more sex appeal". Even the purely non LI characters like Kasumi, Samara, and EDI are all designed to look sexy.

 

That's not something that's likely to go away, since as a species we just enjoy looking at attractive people of our preferred gender. People talk about it being "horny boys" but women do it all the time too. They just don't always openly talk about it like us men do =P

You've obviously never seen the fanfiction side of ALL the fandoms.

I think I'm going to stare with water in my mouth at this picture for ehm....a "little".....because I'm fan of art of course ~coughs~

[Rhaenyss]

I'd play him.. khmm....

 

I love how serious the picture was drawn. It's not making fun of him, he really does seem like he's enjoying himself in that outfit. It doesn't look too female also.

I think I have a solution for this problem. Make all males look like the hound. And all females look like Brieanne of Tarth.

I don't think you know what the problem is. Also, are you suggesting that Hound isn't sexy?

Comparison of aliens to animals simply doesn't work. At least have decency to compare aliens to furry's,  that at least makes more sense.

I respect Garrus too much to call him a furry. Plus they are animals as much as humans are.

My ultimate opinion:

 

I don't think characters running around in skimpy armor is "offensive," I just think it's a tad silly.

 

Seeing as how I view most BW games as being somewhat cheesy, I can handle the catsuits, even if I'm not terribly happy about it.  Decent armor and a dedication to internal consistency are great, but I won't refuse to buy MEA because someone's running around in a metal bikini.  Granted, I don't always go for realism seeing as how I put one of my Femsheps in bright pink armor just to make it explicitly clear that the Reapers are getting their butt kicked by a girl.

 

Mostly, I just want a fun game.

[ArianaGBSA]

She is like Jill Valentine who dropped her old catsuit because she got 100% Miley Cyrus fever and is now wearing just her underwear and stockings, which will make million of MGS players ask themselves are they playing MGS or some hentai game. I don't mind....but I demand Big Boss to be wearing some of these -coughs- practical combat suits too because he will be rocking it biatchez!!!  

Anyway sorry seems I'm on wrong forum, I thought I was on EA/BW forum in MEA section....never realized this was Konami's forum in here. Sorry my mistake I will try to drink less in future so I don't get myself in wrong forums anymore.

Again, just to be clear, I care about my character only. If all NPCs are feminine men in lingerie and masculine women bald and with beard, whatever. I just want to oversexualize my character in the peace and freedom that I have to do so in real life.

[Hazegurl]

Entirely subjective. What you find hot, others won't. Some men don't find women like Quiet attractive, more as her being ridiculous looking. Some women will find Snake in Quiet's clothes sexy.

 

It's all subjective. It can be the same to some and different to others.

That's true, but let's be honest here. Packs of women did not stand outside the movie theater during the "Magic Mike" premiere just to see men strut around in a two piece bikini and high heels.

 

Exceptions to the rule will always exist but they do not invalidate the rule.

Oh wow, we're back to the "alien romances are bestiality" discussion. Guys, I'm so disappointed in you right now.

 

I could totally respond to all your posts by copy/pasting my previous ones from this thread. You wouldn't even notice, would you?

 

Someone even tried the "objectively sexy" argument... duh. Forgot what "sexy" is the short form of, eh? It is by definition subjectively.

[Panda]

Yes cause cats totally have their own society build up with politics, art, philosophy and so on.

You mean your house cats don't have all that? Man I knew mine were acting weird. Should of suspected something when they turned the dogs into cabs.

[Sartoz]

                                                                                                     <<<<<<<<<<()>>>>>>>>>>

 

Since this thread keeps going, I'll go for a character like Quiet from MGSV - Phantom Pain. 

 

Bigger boobies optional.

Nah, just the regular, plotting to take over world and so on.

[temujin321]

I want the women in MEA to look like real women I met in the military. Basically have them look like men with bigger boobs.

Uhm... Noone, absolutely noone, in the last few pages said that. 

 

I mentioned bestiality to illustrate that sexy/sexuality is subjective and while sex with aliens and/or animals, does seem pretty farfetched (or even iffy) to some of us, it is not implausible that some people would be into it. 

 

With the first being presumably more widespread and publicly acceptable considering that it is consenting intelligent selfaware beings.

Actually, they went to see the movie for the sexy men. What, you tell me they went to see the "story" instead?

 

Not sure what's your point here.

I think people are, literally, arguing about men in women's lingerie. Not men in the male equivalent of lingerie. Like, 'Snake would look ridiculous in Quiet's outfit because men don't wear lingerie.' Not 'Snake would look ridiculous running around in a speedo because that's not what soldiers wear.'

Yeah, my point was that people's tastes vary.

 

The latter is funny because Quiet is a soldier and yet she wears little to no clothing. (and yes I know about her "condition", still a lame excuse.) She could wear something else that can help her than getting naked for pure fanservice.

She still looks ridiculous, imo, she'd look hotter in some "ninja-like" clothing..... they could just make her naked and be done with it.

 

I wonder if Snake has the "male equivalent of lingerie".

[Puddi III]

I can have Quiet in MEA if this Snake will happen too. Equality!

Deal.

Glad that's settled.

same for all the Thor and Avengers movies   many girls have discovered comics aren't that bad. (hey, I started reading Marvel thanks to a certain Canadian mutant who seemed basically anti clothes in the first X-man movie... )

So you're saying that all we need to get more girls into gaming is have shirtless Hugh Jackman and Chris Hemsworth everywhere?
