obyknven Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Western fear of boobs in videogames make my displeased. Dragon's Crown become victim of Kotaku's criticism, Obsidian ban boobplates in Project Eternity, UK and Australia ban Pamella Anderson advertising. Guys, do you are really so mad? Human body for you too much sexist? Maybe it's good time to ban womens breasts, let's force them to amputate this vessels of sin. Maybe someone think this witch-hunt against human nature is progressive and feminist thing, but IRL feminists have noting against women's (and men's also) body. Something rotten in modern European/American culture.old game screenshot's for comparison. And Planecape Torment too and now It's sadly, but Obsidian become too conformist and mainstream for me now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilloutman Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I am on your side but on these forums you will only find that people here thinks practical > sexy I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceVC Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Oby for once I agree with you on a topic. I am a huge supporter of the aesthetics of the female form and how it adds to a game. So I hope we see more Isabella type female characters in PE than Cadegund who I find boring. 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Lexx Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Looking good isn't only about showing boobs, you know. Besides, I think Cadegund looks sexy. The boob plate was kinda ridiculous (always is, in any game). "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

Oerwinde Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 PE was going for realistic, boob plate guides weapons to vital areas rather than deflecting them, hence unrealistic. If it suited the style of the game then that's fine, nut it doesn't. 1 The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

alanschu Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I think it's less a fear of boobs and more a better grounding in reality and respect. It's likely also symptomatic of gaming demographics changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear what you are saying Alan but do you really think that the outfits of characters like Viconia and Isabella are disrespectful to women?

Amentep Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I'm perfectly fine with the art of Dragon's Crown. Looking forward to the game. I'm perfectly fine with the art of Project: Eternity. Looking forward to the game. I see no inconsistency here; different approaches by different developers making different games. 6 I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that?

Blarghagh Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) Uhh... not showing boobs is mainstream now? I half agree with this. I very much enjoy seeing the droplets of sweat on a hot and steamy woman's heaving sweater meat, yet I do not enjoy a game developer banging me over the head with a pair of boobs and a pretty face that is obviously only there for the fap fantasies. So - yes to sexy whenever it fits in context (i.e. many fantasy games serve as wish fullfillment, idealized bodies and tight outfits are a bit of a prerequisite), no to blatant objectification. The problem is a lot of people don't seem to know the difference and just go "boobs? sexism!"
