Playing Devils advocate. Doesn't matter about race, Aloy got heavily critized too and the biggest draws for people who want beautiful character are Asians (Just after cat girls, I would reckon) like Eve in Stellar Blade. Also, men get the same treatment, noone wants a fat guy wearing a trash bag like in Covord, even straight men want attractive men as to them these characters look "cool". 

Race and Gender don't apply. Horniness and human nature apply. Sex sells, as many gaming studio suits are finding out and we'll see a wave of 90's like sexiness in games in the next few years. 

I mean, if people are gooners and want gooners baits there are many games with that specific appeal. They have all rights to consume only soft-porn if they want it lol 

What I don't understand is how not having an attractive MC instantly turned to be such a strong political statement. People will play games with pixel art characters that are barely reconazible as human beings, but seems like having a fat guy as payabale character is when we cross the line of wokeness
