Some Whining Wankboys Think Aloy Looks Like A Man (The Jimquisition)
- Thread starter Saucycarpdog
- Start date
It's hilarious that gamers' infatuation with Photorealism(TM) has turned up on them and now they get mad female characters actually don't have to look like Triss or Yennefer all the time, or realizing just now that women also have facial hair, having also the same effect of outing them as virgin losers who haven't been 5 feet near a woman.
manbabies getting mad about peach fuzz/pores/body hair on video game women is soooooooo funny like they're literally just telling on themselves with that
Tell me you've never met a woman in real life without telling me you've never met a woman in real life.
What?? I've never played DMC5 but Claire and Jill in the remakes where like INSANELY hot! I guess they still weren't enough to satisfy those idiots
Yeah. There are tons of threads on places like Steam forums and GameFAQs complaining about how they look. Same tactics were being used as with HFW too. Selectively chosen screenshots that make the character look slightly off from an awkward angle. Same rhetoric too. Not feminine enough, etc etc.
I think Nu Jill just looks too masculine.compared to Julia - Resident Evil 3
For Resident Evil 3 on the PlayStation 4, a GameFAQs message board topic titled "I think Nu Jill just looks too masculine.compared to Julia".

It's a shame this never made it on the Jimquisition radar. It deserved similar amounts of ire and derision.
I actually love the blemishes they've given her. But yeah, anyone complaining about this has never been close enough to a woman to notice. And I wish that was just some facetious commentary but it's clear they just don't have that life experience.
When even gamefaqs is dunking on you then you know you made a really dumb take.
Nintendo hire this man.
So they want shit tons of makeup and to continue perpetuating harmful standards for women? Why the fuck am I not surprised.
I always thought Aloy was incredibly attractive. 🤷♀️
To think that the same people who got mad about Abbie being jacked because she wouldn't get the nutrition needed in a post apocalypse society are now getting mad because Aloy doesn't apply a coating of toner and eyeliner every morning...
Also peach fuzz isn't a beard. All women have it dumb asses. We're fucking mammals, we all grow hair.

I'm not gonna lie, Aloy is not "conventionally attractive" to me. Everyone has their own opinion on pretty/beauty. But I like it the way it is. If you want bog-standard pretty there's always Tomb Raider, or Uncharted's Chloe (who isn't white, but she still has an otherwise conventionally pretty look about her). Nothing wrong with "regular" faces being front and center.
i like how this franchise always brings the scum out of the gutter lol
if i recall correctly last time it caused this sort reaction too right?

Pores detailed and stretching, dynamic sweat/dirt/greasiness, subsurface scattering (those might happening already. We're already getting muscle deformation). Beyond that, I'm not sure we have many game protags with blackheads, milia, pimples, rosacea, irritated skin, dry skin/eczema or stretch marks, but that's basically all just texture work.
Yup.
The Last of Us 2 brought out some exceptionally shitty takes.
Yup. Some guy infamously even went to the lengths of breaking down an in game cafeteria menu, to prove that Abbie couldn't get the caloric intake to build muscle mass.
I'm not even a fan of TLoU2 myself, but the number Abbie and her muscles did on incel chuds was startlingly amusing.
Honestly my only complaint with Aloy is the same one my girlfriend commented on: she really should have more defined muscles given the character.
frankly in a lot of towns the woman look much more built for the world than she does. She kinda retains a rather slim physique with no muscle definition, yet she's lugging around presumably heavy bows and engages in more acrobatics and rock climbing than most professionals.
…of course this is really just about misogynistic nerds wanting hyper sexualized characters wearing impractical specialized clothing they can ogle all game. In which case, just wait for the PC version. Where I'm sure there will be nude mods day one

That's just incredible. I'm sure this person had no problem with the Gears of War characters looking like bodybuilders in a post apocalyptic setting.
Makeup that goes patchy and slowly melts away as you fight and wander around.
Real time abrasions and slow scarring of wounds. Dried blood.
