Yeah. The whole "no pretty woman allowed in western media" bullshit.


And there it is.
Yeah. Because it's true.

nah all asians are pretty racist, i'm asian myself so i know. also i realize these are online comments which tend to skew towards 2ch-type disrespectful speech
Are you Pinoy, Indonesian, Korean or Taiwanese. My guess is Singapore citizens(don't know the word).

Limited to recent Sony games only, can't be arsed to keep on going. Funny that your concept of "attractive" seems limited to characters that almost don't look human, but rather as if they came from hentai.

I mean mai shirunai and doa girls aren't exactly what you'd call hentai babes but they do look more attractive to me than the sony babes imo.

And on a more far more relevant note I really though I think the game looks really bad graphically and from a gameplay standpoint.

I know they are not hentai babes, but they almost look like it. There's pretty much no human being that looks like that unless they're wearing 45 kilos of make-up or have had so much plastic surgery that when opening their eyes their asshole closes. You can find them more attractive to your heart's content, but the argument here is that people are criticising attractiveness based on unrealistic (literally) standards of beauty vs. what an actual human looks like.

As for MK1, some of them look fugly, but none look realistic enough for me to be attracted or not.

It is a game, why does it need to be realistic. I mean like I don't the whole ugly wamen vidya too, but when the last entry got great looking sexy men and women, and next game we got drug addicts instead, it is just a downgrade.

Oh, I don't give a shit about women in games looking pretty or not. I was arguing against the whole "all women in western games look ugly, unlike asian games". That's all. I want my games to be fun. I have my gf to look at if want to look at a pretty woman.

Great because I played video games and watch movies to look away from my wife. ;)

I will compare it to tekken 8 which has a more realist look to it.

Personally I think tekken 8 did a better job at attaining realism. The character on the bottom here looks disproportionate in some areas.

If you're arguing the characters up top look more life-like than the ones at the bottom, at least based on those pictures, you really have to leave your home at some point. And I mean it. Go outside and look at actual human beings.
