| marley said: Nude =/= lewd. I think there is a big difference between simple nudity and the obvious sexualization of young looking characters (male or female). |
Putting a revealing outfit of a character in the game is no more "obvious sexualization" than showing a character's genitals. The "sexualization" of the character -- determined by camera angles, focus, lingering -- is in the hands of the player.
If you're just playing the game normally, you'll mostly see Lyn from behind, and her weapon is so large that it obscures almost her entire body. During cutscenes the camera focuses mostly on her face or on her general 'front' with no more emphasis given to her breasts than to the rest of her. There is nothing lewd about a bikini unless the player wants there to be.
