It's a product of diversity; the same can be seen in the fashion industry.
People are pressured into not only creating perfect, beautiful 10/10 character. I might be way of on the dates but it also happened in the film industry around the 40s not ever star need to be Chad with an 8 pack, humour and humanity can be derived from imperfections.

3d scanned assets dont look good without proper global illumination, and skin dosnt look good without a good sss shader, the more realistic it gets the more easy its to mess something up.

This looks to be running in engine so it has a lot of limitations, but im still really impressed what they did here, the AO is shit, they baked AO into the model texture which also looks kinda shit, shadow map light bleed everywhere but as a whole this looks really close to early cgi movies.
Wonder what engine this is, its not unreal 4, this one has some sort of screen based and voxel based GI. Unreal 5? if so this game is much shorter in development than we are to be believed, then the 2022 or later release makes sense as it would start development not long ago. If so the Superman game and batman game were shitcanned a lot more recently than they claimed they were, they were telling us Superman game didnt go far into development, but i have serious doubts seeing how this game will have at least 7 years dev cycle from a really efficient studio.

It's the current industry culture. It's literally within the Art Director's job description to "uglify" characters.

Look at the state of the industry 4 years ago:

These companies spend millions of $ to make their characters uglier. Some poor artist works for months on making the perfect 10/10 waifu bitch. Then some diversity hire get paid twice as much to add shit over the guy's work because inclusivity.

No, realism does not mean the model has to be ugly. There are many examples of beautiful human faces both for males and females. Quite often, the actor/actress the game models are based on are much more attractive than their CG models.

I don't believe this is caused by lack of talent in 3D artists, I believe there's a strong push towards avoiding ideal beauty. Even male models have regressed in the past few years.

I'm not saying it's a conspiracy, as some people really do seem to believe that imperfections add to beauty. What I cannot tolerate is the idea that everyone and their mother needs to be represented in fictional fantasy worlds. It's like demanding people to settle for sub-par physical attributes.

My disappointment in the evolution of 3DCG is one of the main reasons why I'm practicing digital sculpture. If you want it done right, you've got to do it yourself.

>> No.767433

actually they're just high on their own supply, no conspiracy from the bluehairs.
The real conpsiracy is who caused them to be that way in the first place? Who subverted the institutions with communist idealogues who then raise more?

Pic related as an example.
You have a fairly good representation for the man, and a meme legend for the woman.

the last of us 2 has a person leak that they weren't ugly because of feminism, but because of trans people being unable to pass, so to make them feel welcomed they made the women look like shit. grain of salt but knowing their work environment basically asking 'what would anita think/what if this character was a woman' I wouldn't be shocked. women can easily pass as a man, but men can almost never pass as a woman.

so the western studios just make women ugly, and anything coming in from japan on a sony console has to be censored if it would make a straight male aroused, see any japanese game and the last of us two sex scene or life is strange 2 under age sex scene.

>> No.769032

>>765278
It's because of a misunderstanding and catering to a vocal segment of people on social media who have a snow white witch syndrome.

Most people who watch movies or play games want to be amused so having good looking people act on screen is pleasant to them.
Some people feel a deep pain in their chest if they see someone they perceive as better looking or more fit or representing an 'unattainable beauty standard'.
As if that is somehow a bad thing.

In recent years these "mirror mirror on the wall" types have somehow tricked content creators into thinking we want characters in our
entertainment to look as bland and boring as the people we see waiting in line at the supermarket 12 o clock on a Tuesday.

It's a fad and it'll go away soon. Majority of people are not offended by people they find attractive but gravitates towards them.

yes because it blocks the waist from the silhouette. What is "attractive" comes down to a lot of ratios. This is what the idealogues hate the most. Objective understandings that supplant their subjective assertions. They want to be able to say any kind of woman is beautiful, but frankly there's a pattern and universal qualities to it. Only so many chords sound nice to the ear, but there's an infinite amount of random noise.

Im not sure when I noticed it either. I mean there are other factors as well like do they have any boobs, I mean I have seen some women who do not gain any boobs as they get fatter so they have an even lower threshold of what looks good, but typically, and this is just from observation, women are ale to pack on pudge and while they have a gut, its that moment that it starts to overtake the hips that completely ruins body proportions and they go from "this is ok, not ideal but ok" to "jesus fucking christ lay off the twinkies"

men, having a lower body fat threshold of 15% to womens 25% stop looking great around the 25-30% range, but there are modifiers such as they are actually strong, as most people who are strong do pack on a fairly large amount of fat as well.

here I got a chart, and before anyone says anything, you pretty much cant measure body fat any reliable way but image charts like this.

notice how the women, even at 40% that is ok, 45% is pushing it and may be a coin flip, but at 50 its no longer acceptable.
It should also be noted these bodys are more or less women 25-50 and men 20-40 are normal people, men 15 could be normal could be model, but men 3-12 are most likely photo shoots, same with women 10-22
the men have more muscle then likely the norm in those ranges (fucking 3-4 especially) and the women 10-22 clearly work out in ways most women want, I guarantee that if the 10-12 body put on fat to get to 30, he would not look like 30% in the picture.

I don't think anyone is asking for 10/10, but I think most people, when they see a hero, want someone they can aspire to be like, we don't want to see things and learn by negative example, as this has more of a tendency to backfire then anything else.

pic related was made over 100k years ago. Some caveman spent an enourmous amount of time carving a solid rock into a fat chick with an overhanging gut, but proportionally larger breasts and buttox. Women collect fat in their thighs, butt, midsection, and breasts when they have a lot of estrogen. Puberty also doesnt begin in women until they have a certain fat percentage.
When women are skinny they're just cheating. A woman is only truly beautiful if she's still (or more) attractive with what we call "extra" weight. If a woman only looks good when she has almost no fat on her it's because she's not inherently beautiful.

definitely not. pic related got panned, and joosten is very "get able".
Not every character does need to be perfect, and there's room for explicitly ugly characters too. The ideological slant can't be forgiven, and it IS the source of the problem. They want to remove beauty from our culture, and replace it with ugliness. It's not just that the new female hero is unattractive. She needs to be purposefully repulsive, but the script describes her as "seductive and beautiful". Yup. That's what that is. The ugly design is MEANT to be beautiful. you have to accept their unreality while also looking at their displeasing designs. That's why people are offended.

most of them have low self esteem problems, you want to catch them either before the bloat to ham planet (and trust me, them buying 4-5 sides of pants they can no longer fit in on the way up breaks that spirit) but after they start letting themselves go is the best time, they still clean themselves properly, but deep inside they know they are losing it, you come up with a dick they can use and a relatively nice personality, you usually got a 0 effort lay.

the problem is this fat acceptance shit makes people who look like shit think they have something desirable, it just creates narcissists who love themselves, which is good, but have an inflated sense of value.

but it honestly doesn't matter where you live, the entity of the west is getting fatter and fatter, and if you live in a third world, the moment you have anything resembling a good life the women bloat the fuck out worse then the west.
