I think some people are putting way too much weight into these shitty polls (in any thread on any topic for that matter). To cast damnation or salvation on this forum on these things is an exercise in futility. It's not worth the trouble and it certainly isn't worth your mental well being to put so much stock in them.
This goes just for the poll, not the discussion itself which is warrented.
I would argue that the poll reflects that people are afraid of discussion because no matter how subtly they express their view they risk being banned or called a sexist or something. They aren't afraid to express themselves in a poll though.
So you say the discussion is warranted, but this is a toxic environment for discussion -- Thus the poll. And what we're left with is a discussion that's largely either an echo chamber or drive by trolling, both of which accomplish little or nothing in the way of changing anyone's opinion or informing anyone of anything
Like I said, I dont mind if they change it, please dont put words in my mouth or overly emphasize them to give them a different meaning. More than happy if they cater to your preference for the next 20+ years
The "Why women criticise sexualised character designs" thread has over 3.2 million views and is about to hit its third OT.
Why women criticise sexualised character designs |OT2| I have no pants and I must scream (READ OP) OT
Please read these notable posts before participating in the thread, if you have not done so already!www.resetera.com
I actually put a lot of stock in the fact attitudes are, albeit slowly, changing. Indie games are way ahead, and even though TLOU2 (unreasonably) caught a shit load of flack for its characters, it was a big hit when just 10 years ago developers were "scared" of female leads for not selling.
Regretablly this is still a boy's industry; but the more it changes (and it will) the better.
Does that have much to do with an echo chamber or that these are the same types of conversations that you aren't going to have in public either? Because people will shame you if you start defending a game character needing to show their ass to matter.Respectfully, I don't know what a thread having a lot of replies matters to my point. The majority opinion on this forum is still that sexy costumes on characters are fine, as illustrated clearly by this poll, but this generally isn't reflected in the replies. I'm bringing this up to highlight the discrepancy and saying why I think that is.
MehThere's a pants-wearing Cammy concept art from Final Fight Streetwise that is actually pretty great:
No. If people truly cared about that, they would've been made a lot of noise about it a long ass time ago.
Yeah chun's making the face my cat makes when she sniffs her own assLOL.
ChunLi's look is literally....did you pull that out of your poopy hole?
Women have been saying this shit for years, ya goofball. Men either weren't listening or getting straight up mad (hell, even in this thread) at people for daring to touch that ass..
You know what's wrong with Cammys sexuality?
Hey, you don't have to be mean. I'm just saying that her design has been around since the 90's. There could be alternate costumes for her in general, too.
Mad. No one cares, it's copcam's character and their design. They decide cammy wears a nun outfit so it'll be a nun outfit and your cries won't matter.Women have been saying this shit for years, ya goofball.

When 'women that have been saying shit for years' will make copcam a billion $ in sf5 no ass edition all other ass fighters will disappear.

You do realize that if "Copcam" gives her a new default with pants that her ass isn't going to be sent to the shadow realm. Her ass is going to be the same and more than likely in skin tight clothing.Mad. No one cares, it's copcam's character and their design.

You're bout to eat a ban for this. Hopefully you take the time after to read through the thread and understand the complaints.Mad. No one cares, it's copcam's character and their design. They decide cammy wears a nun outfit so it'll be a nun outfit and your cries won't matter.

Not as mad as you to make 50 posts in a 5 minute old thread.
So you just repeated what I said. MK changed things and made more $ and Boon said ok, we'll stick to that. sf5 director knows he'll probably lose money cause target audience is a bunch of nerds who need ass. But you can prove him wrong and refund all costume and other mtx purchases or just refund sf5 in general.MK changed the female character designs, with the usual suspects howling in rage and calling for a boycott. The thing is MKX and MK11 have both sold over 10 million copies. MK11 even has a good chance of becoming the 2nd best selling fighting game. This all well above what SFV and T7 have sold.
The idea that the ass shots and fetish costumes need to stay in or else SF would bomb doesn't hold water.
The people who want to masturbate to Cammy can easily find porn and R34 art online. Why does the game need to look like a porno?
This. You can use mods, you can pay folks do whatever freaky shit you want them to do with those models. Why do you require the game to be this ? Why do there need to be crazy ass shits. Why do there need to be main outfits that are not reflective of the characters vibe at all for the sake of titillation. Just get rid of a bunch of that stuff.The people who want to masturbate to Cammy can easily find porn and R34 art online. Why does the game need to look like a porno?
You sound pretty upset that people are talking about this particular issue though.Not as mad as you to make 50 posts in a 5 minute old thread.

Btw I didn't spend a dime on 5 cause it's a bad game ass or no ass so y'all can just relax those tight assholes.
These are amazing! Wish i had mods on PS4.
The top one is just an outfit you can own in the game its her story outfit. That fluttershy color up there you gotta play their weird lootbox system to get though

Real talk, if you don't think this is hot we're gonna have problems. 🤣
Like, every time the whole "boner culture" sort of shit pops around it's like...you can make a girl cute or hot or sexy having them next to naked or jutting their ass or tits out to the camera all the time. MK11 put Kitana in a blue bodysuit with a slim figure and that didn't stop the internet from screaming "STEP ON ME QUEEEEEEEEN". It's not actually that hard, you just have actually have to put a brain cell or two together instead of just constantly sticking with your most juvenile and basic urges.
The above is still sexualized between the midriff and camo pants that could easily be made skintight (I figure emphasizing her legs isn't the worst since SPIRAL ARROW CANNON SPIKE), but like at least it looks more sensible than the green thong leotard.
Poll seems to have been removed lol I wonder why?What is happening here ? I see people talking about a poll, I don't see it ?
