Wait.

They tuned the females of DoA6 into cool characters and less sex objects.. and that's a bad thing? I dont care about SJW's, but your viewpoint is pretty shitty as well. Also, that article you linked. Shove it. It is a totally biased. The Director stated that the breast of the female characters will match their body types, not every female having cup sizes 3x the body size.

Your implication that they couldn't be cool before and seeing them as only sex objects says more about you than anything else, honestly. Regardless of their marketing and approach with the game, the developers themselves saying this very thing - that they were only sex dolls before and not characters - is hugely offensive to anyone who has enjoyed the games for the last 15 years, anyone who has worked on the games for the last 15 years and honestly, offensive to their entire company itself.

Implying that women can only be cool characters if they aren't sexy is extremely toxic, and pissing on your fans is absolutely terrible. Maybe DoA6 will end up being a good game, but their treatment of fans will hurt it regardless of its quality.

There is no personal viewpoint from me on the subject. I cannot be implying anything.

2nd batch of bolded - Let's be clear here: You finding an attachment to the characters beyond being sex dolls, does not make them not sex dolls. Did you know that Itagaki said that the cast was made to be sexy because it was needed to be entertaining? That's not shallow right? I believe during DoA2/or beach volleyball he said he wanted men to be able play with the women of their dreams. That is from the creator!

3rd bolded batch - Call to emotion is the worst argumentative stance to ever take because it produces stuff like this. You are sooo totally blinded. No one is claiming that sexy women(or men) cannot be cool, hell, if anything this industry has pushed the contrary for decades (that's toxic). They have the decided to emphasize the coolness of the females  over the sexy. Dead or Alive has always had the moniker of the "softcore porn fighting  game" and they are working to shed that image. Did you that the competitive fighting scene in Japan does not take Dead or Alive seriously? Did you that a lot of the changes to the females were done the request of Japanese gamers who felt embarrassed while playing it in the arcades? So what "fans" are they pissing on? Otaku basement dwellers? It does not matter what side of the world you are on; consumers have outgrown the softcore elements of the series.

stop using the word "implying". I don't think you know how to use it.
