If they wanted to showcase her "saving" herself or something, they could've at least done it in a less hamfisted way - like maybe having her clothing have the "fire flower" effect and she could be holding a fireball.

modern feminism is increasingly about fat women attacking healthy women and normal ideals of beauty.

that's why feminists are so keen to have healthy women cover themselves, yet simultaneously so eager to bare their own corpulent bodies.

not a surprising development, really. it was basically inevitable once more than 60% of the female population was overweight.

There were some good redesigns in there.

Scarlet Witch and Storm were pretty good, Betty Boop turned out nice too as a modern reimaging. Most of the Marvel comic ones, come to think of it, were good (except Gamora, which looks goofy as fuck and no more "practical" than the original).

But man, the bad ones really are bad. Chun Li... really? The Samus one was dubious, I'll concede the point on the heels but that's really about it... the whole point of the Zero Suit is it's what she wears under her armor, so it's kind of like complaining that underwear is too revealing. Dizzy from GG was like "lol wat?", I mean fucking hell all of the costumes in Guilty Gear are kinda retarded (Zato looks like a bondage freak for fucks sake).

The Seven of Nine one kinda bugged me too, obviously it's sexualized but who the fuck doesn't have skin tight spandex on Star Trek? Guess they should've found an actor with a smaller rack?

Could've been a good post, and her responses to comments are pretty decent and reasonable, but half of the images smack of half-baked politicizing. Oh no, you can see curves? Better put more clothing between her tits and those prying male eyes! Overall it felt like she just cherry-picked some images to make a round-about point regarding men and/or the oppression of women.

How about we investigate why there aren't more characters like Helga Von Bulow from Return to Castle Wolfenstein? I think she's frickin' awesome, but I guess she doesn't look as good striking a sexy pose with a rocket launcher to please these so-called "feminists".

Sorry for the rant, this is something I'd have as a proper comment on the article or maybe even save for writing an article on my own... except that'd be public suicide and I'm not retarded.

>> No.2005596

Without having looked at all the images, my guess is that it's just a general reactionary tendency. Honestly games have more fanservicey/sexy/male appealing female characters than other types, so of course when people try to redesign them they'll go for something different from what's most common i.e. more clothing coverage, bodies that aren't porn star style etc....

It's just how people usually react to a trend, regardless of whatever political agendas you're ascribing to them

that's pretty funny. they're not even really pretending to care about 'objectification' or 'stare rape' or 'the male gaze' anymore. Now it's just "this woman is prettier than me and I don't like it. Stop being so pretty."

Obviously because most women don't want to see their own sex oversexualized like most men don't either. This isn't just limited to the retarded SJW mentality.

That said, a lot of the redesigns do kind of defeat the purpose of the typical superhero costume. Most of these redesigns (particularly the ones with the dresses) look more of a fantasy thing than capeshit.

Yup. The blue suit in the pic on the left was introduced later on as what she wears underneath the armor suit. Earlier games had her in a a leotard or generic two piece athletic wear. Her armor is form-fitting, which makes the redesign's interpretation of her under-suit retarded.

Yeah, it looks like a nifty utility suit... but I dunno why Samus would wear that unless she moonlights as a mechanic.

That's the issue with most of these redesigns (the ones that aren't just... bad), they are thoughtless regarding the setting or context and are really hamfisted in that way.

Betty Boop was solid though, a good example of updating the IP to current trends while sticking to the essence of the character.

It does look cool and the drawing is well done, but it doesn't match the source material. Her armor is futuristic and designed by an advanced alien race. Current depictions in game have the suit materialize around her instead of something she climbs into. This artist's redesign would have to accompany a redesigned armor suit as well, but at that point it's getting too close to something designed by modern humans, instead of a super advanced alien race in a future setting.

>I was just proving that it's, in fact, true.

You linked to one study that discredits itself before it even gets started...

>Several limitations and recommendations based on the present study should be noted. Because of this study’s correlational nature, results obtained cannot assess causation.

...one survey about "insecurities" as if everyone doesn't have those no matter what, and two unsourced opinion pieces. Your "citations" are worthless.

People will always have insecurities no matter what, fear and jealousy are part of being human; however today things have certainly been exacerbated by the fact that over half the population of the developed world is disgustingly fat. If you really wanted to make us uncomfortable earlier you would have spammed pictures of the modern mass man and woman whose hedonism has shaped their bodies into an unrecognizable blob headed for an early grave.

All characters in street fighter 2 is designed with the thought of the players being able to keep track of whats happening and going on. And also to make it even more impressive you have to take all the limits the team had to work against when they created Street Fighter 2.

There was a huge shitstorm about Free! when it was announced. There are tons of shows featuring cute girls doing cute things, but when it came for cute boys doing cute things then all hell broke loose.

It leads me to believe that men are more threatened by effeminate men than oversexualized men. It seems that, to them, oversexualized men are like half naked men with exuberant masculinity. Now, if you make them effeminate...then I feel that you are threatening something there when that shouldn't be the case at all.

I feel that it might be lingering case of Victorian age Europe homophobia that's still lingering in our culture.

>> No.2006302

it's not exactly like that.
Men aren't threatened by over-muscular men because they are unrealistic. Not that they don't exist, but they are so few that they aren't a realist threat. Plus their physique don't appeal to everyone.
(just like women aren't really threatened by actual top-models)

But free!-like body is a much more realistic goal for someone that decides to fix his diet and do some sport. Which is why it's a threat: you COULD look like that but you don't.

Pretty sure most people could assume that a show about sexy guys in a swimming club would be kinda gay yaoi bait, without having seen it beforehand. So obviously straight anime fans would hate it from the get-go. The different between them and feminists though is that they realize this is not a show made for them and they don't demand the characters to have more "realistic" bodies, as feminists would demand. It is a show made for yaoi legbeards. Straight men wouldn't find Free! any more appealing if it was a bunch of fat guys on the swimming team so the hate has absolutely nothing to do with feeling threatened and insecure.

The difference is that when men and most women see a picture of someone who is attractive and fit, they aspire to be like them, and it motivates them to get off their fat asses, work out, and eat healthily.

Tumblrites have no such motivation. So when they see a picture of an attractive or fit person, they get angry and whine about body acceptance. Fuck that. The default human body is weak. Make yourself into something better.

Comics, so there isn't a whole lot on that sadly. A lot of books on getting down the style and streamlining your knowledge, but not much on the actual design portion. I kinda just do what I did with my cartoon designs though(if the character is strong and dependable, give him more of a squarish build). I also try to use a bit of asymmetry in the faces and designs, but it can't be as extreme as with cartoons. A lot of comic characters don't do the asymmetrical designs.

I would say it's better to build around how the character will look in panels. How can you simulate movement in panels(through cloak, hair, loose cloth, wings or alternative)? Can you break the character down for the environmental shots and can it still stand out?

In my opinion, figuring this out benefits your character way more in the long run that sculpting out a character and calling it done.

>> No.2007907

>>2007897
So basically to focus on this that will sort of accentuate the movements? I guess that's a smart thing I haven't thought of, though really you can do that with multiple characters within the panels. It's actually how they cleverly used the Turtles in the old Marage comics. They would place the four of them like frames in animation within the panel, then sort of spread them out when the action happened so your eyes would rest on the panel and take it in.


Of course, I suppose with fewer characters on panel you would want to add more movement through the clothes and hair as sort of a "follow through" if that's what you're talking about. Still, I guess when it comes to the actual character design it's just a matter of mixing and matching actresses and finding a fashion that works for them... potentially.

because if its a character you never have sex with, why not sexualize them? what a woman does or looks like doesn't matter until you have sex with them, then it was exploitative the whole time and turns into fantasy fulfillment shit.

>> No.2010042

>>2010037
you've got to remember that in the story most of these game developers are telling, sex never comes into the equation. usually the woman is just in danger and you save her, or shes on her own and saving herself. making them beautiful is just a way to make them more interesting visually while you do all this stuff, or giving you incentive to care about the person you're saving.

especially in games where they don't have a good reason for you to want to save the princess, or a strong character on their own that you want to kick ass with, the easiest way to make you care about a character is to make her beautiful.

it's a story problem, not a design problem.

like i said its the same reason bayonetta has to look like that, its cause theres no amazing backstory. her character IS her sexuality. if she was an unattractive girl it wouldn't make sense design wise for her to be doing half the things she does in game unless you wanted it to be a comedy game ( which im all for)

That's pretty objectifying m8, nice.

That is also objectively wrong and your logic is stupid. Appearance definitely does matter outside of sexual intercourse, and it's even applicable to real life.

Going by your logic, why make a character sexually titillating if you're never going to have sex with that person? After all, like you've said, what a woman looks like doesn't matter if you're never going to touch dat anyway. Why fuck up with the story telling (which is the biggest issue with hypersexualization most of the time) and isolate people if appearance doesn't mean anything? :^)

With the newer races, they even appeal to children with animal like characters. The Blood Elves too... I don't care what anyone says, they were made for women

The femme fatale didn't have to be a villain you know. Maybe in Mortal Kombat and James Bond... yes, it is unoriginal.

A femme fatale can be any women. Charlie's Angels were all femme fatales. Laura Croft was a femme fatale. The majority of anime characters, good or bad, can be femme fatales.

I'm not saying it isn't overused in that all female characters almost are sexy, attractive adult females in this day in age. To completely eradicate that will make games just as unrealistic. Attractive people exist in everyday life. They are common.

People push for plain, bigger, or more unconventional characters to set a more realistic standard. To completely eradicate the attractive female would do no favors, they would still need to be present even if not as a lead character... villain or not.

That is why no one rags on the overly muscular attractive man archetype, right? Because plenty of likable male characters exists who are bigger, weird, or downright unattractive or plain... which makes it not so unrealistic.

The issue isn't necessarily attractive people, but rather the lack of diversity when it comes to female characters. Not to say that there aren't people who are just jelly over attractive fictional characters in general, but female characters get the short end of the stick majority of the time in both appearance and character.

I was going to attach an example of this, but I cannot seem to find the image.

Disney's Gargoyles is a good example of the design thing. Tons of diversity within the male Gargoyle characters, but the good amount of female characters have the same body style/silhouette save maybe a 10% difference.

Transformers (the non-movie bullshit) also suffers from the same issue barring some exceptions and male-retooled-to-female characters.

That seems a bit off though, your thinking.

Isn't almost every good female fighter a femme fatale too? To justify your hatred by saying it just applies to villains seems off.

If you have a problem with the archetype, it is because it is the main archetype used whether good or villainous for a fighting female character.

Good Lord Jesus Christ of Jehovah's Witness... if you want to type with that much frustration. It isn't a competition.

Villains should have nothing to do with this.

That is absolutely not the femme fatale archetype, and you clearly don't know what it actually is.
>A femme fatale (/ˌfæm fəˈtɑːl/ or /ˌfɛm fəˈtɑːl/; French: [fam fatal]) is a stock character of a mysterious and seductive woman whose charms ensnare her lovers, often leading them into compromising, dangerous, and deadly situations. She is an archetype of literature and art.

You seem to have woke up on the wrong side of bed. If you have to say "you don't mean this as an insult"... then it is an insult. You should know this.

No, I am pointing out that you are ignorant. Ignorant is not inherently an insult. I said that because you'd probably take that as a personal offence (and I assume you already have.)
>No where does it say that character needs to be villainous
Except I never said that either, I've corrected you here >>2011268.

That, and that isn't what femme fatale is. Go re-read the definition again until you further understand it (to sum it up: it's a female character who uses her sex/sex appeal as a weapon.)

Now, what else are you going to try and argue with? Because all you're proving now is that you're incapable of basic reading comprehension and don't actually know what you're talking about. Feel free to pull another equivalent of 'u mad' though.

Still can't read, I see. Do you even know what the femme fatale archetype, now?

I do not like the femme fatale archetype because it is an unoriginal and tiring trope that -mainly- applies to female villains, and many female villains belong to this trope. You could have grasped that the first time if you didn't fail your high school English courses (and yes Anon, that was an insult.)

To re-word this for the silly Anon, it is something almost exclusive to female villains. Because writers are often unoriginal cunts when it comes to this archetype in general.

I'm tired that women need to be "ass-kicking" and "badass" to be good characters. Why is a character that's sweet and nice a bad thing. Not all characters need to know how to fight to be respected.

Also fuck this shit with giving characters that had big boobs, smaller boobs. Yes we should have more diversity in body type, but there's nothing wrong with big boobs. Women are born with different sizes.

The lady from Avatar is a femme fatale.

She is an alien yes...

She's a mysterious and seductive female alien who gets the lead character in a really dangerous situation where he almost dies. She wasn't evil. I think of many other good characters that fall in the stereotype.

Plenty of female villains that don't fall under the "femme fatale" stereotype exist. I just think it is a stereotype equally used for either good or bad.

Why do people directly reference video game characters as if they are a model for all men or all women. I think the biggest problem is that people can't force themselves to distinguish fantasy and reality. i.e just because many characters in video games that are women have a certain look or character, does not mean that all women in real life must look like this or that all video game characters must reflect reality. It is fantasy and there is no reason to be upset about it. It seems like people assume that if idealistic images exist that everyone must adhere to them and if you believe that, you are not thinking for yourself. Believe it or not you can't force other people to feel differently just because you feel upset by something.

What true feminism comes down to is, who cares if a woman is a virgin or fuck a million men. Who cares if she's fully clothed pr wearing a skimpy outfit. Who cares if she's buff or skinny. It's about doing whatever you want without the judgement. It shouldnt be about being angry at society. It's about telling society that they shouldn't judge or give a fuck what a woman does. She ducked the whole football team? Ok. She decides to be an engineer. Mmkay. She wants to be a housewife, that's fine too.

It should be just "these are things that happen." A woman doesn't have to go topless to prove a point. It should be treated as "ok, she went topless. Mmkay."

if it's an action game/movie, yes they do. there's nothing more annoying than some pretty bimbo with useless skills who we're supposed be feels sorry for. and when they do appear in games/movies they are little more than window-dressing for commercials. keep those kinds of characters in chick-flicks and romance novels.

I'm almost certain you're trolling, but you do understand the societal need for stereotypically accepted behaviours right? There's a long list of reasons why people are criticised for their off-colour actions and it won't be changing for as long as humanity has free-will. The irony of it all is that these same women wanting their own 'freedom' already have it, they're merely attempting to stifle anyone who has objections thereby eradicating other peoples freewill.
