bugrimmar: I was going to ignore you but I've decided to deny my "simple logic" and go ahead and go again. You're "logic" is that if I don't like a character in a game that I shouldn't buy it, why? Why should I let one character dampen my experience?
"But isn't that what you've been saying this entire time?" No, it's not. I'm saying that these characters devalue the game, not make it unplayable. I (and others) are saying that they don't NEED these kinds of characters to make the game better. Just make great characters, it's been done before! Let them speak for themselves, let them show us how awesome they are, there is no need to rely on their looks to sell us the game.
If a character is drawn and turns out beautiful then great. But there's no need to overhaul the model to "please" gamers, many of us (bugrimmar is obviously not part of this) don't need that to enjoy the game. We (again apparently not bugrimmar) want to play games to enjoy them. Whether it's action, RPG, shooter, fighter, arcade etc. If the game is good we'll tell them, we're gamers, we're not shy about telling people how we feel.
But it's when stuff like this happens that makes us go "why?" Because it makes no sense.
Ponyless: Never played Rising or MSG4 but you're point is well made. He does do this a lot, but I keep bringing him up because of his statement about Quiet and the need to make her "erotic", and like I've said in previous comments Kojima isn't the only one to do this. He's just one of the better examples.
In case you didn't know, I have a comic book called Guardians. I'm the writer/creator of it, and we have four issues out right now, with our fifth coming out soon!
We're also doing a Patreon right now for the comic, and I'd appreciate any and all help in getting it funded. If 56 people pledged $3 per issue, we'll be funded
