I really don't understand this fixation that 'liberals' have with representation in works of fiction.

But I had my escapism in fiction, my way of forgetting the problems of real life. I don't want the fiction to represent real life, I want the fiction to be that, fiction.

Its a projection of insecurity. They are angry that they won't be the thing that is idolized. Most normal functioning nerds accept that they will never look like Superman. These aren't normal people we are dealing with but unfortunately they've been handed the keys to a lot of franchises

[@avarion9538]

It's about control and power. They don't want people to escape. They want them to accept. They want to show them their ideology everywhere, to remind them of their ideology, and to not question it, whereever it accures. F.e. to not question, should such people not just be in games, but also read to children in kindergartens. Or to not question, should you suddenly have a black or LGBTQ+ majority in positions of power, even though they are a minority of the population. It's also to remind you of their made up problems. F.e. according to them, trans looking characters in video games are necessary, because of discrimination. There is no discrimination like that, but if you accept the trans characters in video games, you are also more likely to not question, if the discrimination thing is real. But if people believe, it is, the government would have a reason, to fight this discrimination, to take more power. It's the same with black charakters: You see more and more of them, so on the one side, you won't wuestion it, if they are overrepresented in certain positions of power, and you get reminded of the activism behind this characters, and that it is to fight racism, and if you stop questioning, if there even is racism, and just accept it, because the counter measures are everywhere, you are less likely to question things, like affirmative action and DEI programs, which gives them a huge advantage with their careers. Also they don't want you to escape, to kind of break the moral, and to make you numb in general. That also was a tactic of the communists and socialists. "The party" was everywhere. The leaders of the party were everywhere. It feels overwhelming and depressing, if you can't escape a certain idea, person or ideology, it makes you and your mind tired, and that's also a huge part of why they want to have their ideology represented everywhere.

you'd need quite a movement to get this industry to budge, a few comments does nothing to them, but if there was some kind of movement that would get their attention. but gamers as a whole are not created equal, and unfortunately that's the problem. I know hindsight is 20/20, but nobody ever listens to the part about, hurt them in the wallet by not spending, but no one ever does that. especially now a days, these studios are gonna get their money either way, because subscription services exist, and people are like flies, they'll continue to land where gaming is going. these publishers know that, so they don't have to rely on gamers anymore, because they know casuals and the mainstream will always be there, along with the nerd stains and the woke crowd. it's a sad reality, but i gave up on the idea awhile ago that gaming will get good and cool again. no the most you can hope for, are the few gems that squeeze out every now and then.

the guy's name is Toby Gard, you might say how you know it's him, because Crystal brought him in to be the lead art designer. now they have other people besides him, but he's the director. so he has a team to works together with him, but yes he was the guy responsible for Lara Croft's early design, unfortunately he now hates the idea of making her. now i can understand on one hand, because his intentions for Lara wasn't to be a status symbol, but for whatever reason he hated it. it's why he left Core Design after the first game, it sounds to me like he wasn't cut out for gaming, or there was something about him that shy's away from the whole sex appeal thing. if you look at most of Lara's ads and commercials, i never thought they were that bad or over the top, but Tomb Raider would not exist without Eidos brilliant marketing. i wish publishers still had that mindset today, but back then marketing was king, and you needed something to make your game stand out. so if you listen to what he says today, he'll make excuses about being younger, but what guy regardless of his age will ever get tired of looking at attractive women. it's impossible for any straight male to do that, so unless he was secretly in the closet when he design Lara, that's the only thing that might make sense. but i can't see how that would be, because he designed her to be pretty attractive. so i just think he never got over Eidos taking his creation. because he would've been right there, because the rest of Core didn't go anywhere. they were overworked, but they stayed up until the end.

@@Black_Void_ I agree. At least most parts of the EU. Some areas, like Cyprus, seem to be kind of fine, but it spreads. Meanwhile in France, there are real, violent riots, especially in the south, and here in Germany, we have things like islamists demanding openly, we become a khalifat and get sharia law, or celebrating openly the death of a police officer, who got killed by an islamist. And ofc we have the climate activists. It's crazy, because nowadays here in Germany, you can be sure, if you are a public figure opposed to left wing ideology, and something bad happens to you, from an accident over getting a disease to even a dangerous attack, you can be sure, certain groups will openly celebrate it, and in most cases, nothing will be done about it. Meanwhile, you can get trouble, if you just like enough "wrong" things on Twitter, or if you write something "hateful", and it's not clear, that it's just an opinion. If you would write a statement, like you don't believe, Islam is a part of Germany, you could get trouble. You would have to write a reason, f.e. that religion in general should be seperated from a country, or that germany is a christain country, so it can't also be a muslim country, to be sure, you won't get problems with the police for that. Just as example, how bad it can be nowadays in europe, because they really take your digital devices, to "teach" you acceptance, and some people got thrown into prison for single, short tweets. That's spreading, and while some things get better, f.e. how less and less people support pride month, others get worse, f.e. the legal trouble the activists can cause, and how they become more and more part of the system...

That's really reaching, Joanna Dark looks perfectly fine. As for still looking beautiful when older, Pamela Anderson does not still look as beautiful as she did when she was younger. Dragon Age doesn't look good because of the art style they seem to be going with; Morrigan was hot and the art style was vastly different. Also, Dragon Age is Bioware, not Bethesda, which doesn't really look good for you when you constantly complain about how they're not fans so they don't care about all the little nitty gritty like "true fans" do. The Fable character, so she looks "pretty" in that one still, but looks shitty in other frames?.... Gee, it's as if not everyone looks good in every single frame; pause the video frame by frame and you're bound to look shitty in multiple frames as well. Also, mentioning how the actress that is scanned for the Fable heroine is pretty, but doesn't always translate when doing one for one scans for characters in-game also goes against your narrative that female characters are purposefully being "uglified," it's as if devs are going for one for one scans to make it look like the model, but unfortunately due to all those variables that you mentioned, they don't always translate exactly. For Doom Guy, yeah he's masculine as fuck, but he's also hidden behind a mask so... But I digress. Doom Guy is masculine as is Kratos, but God forbid he learns from his past of how constant anger just continues a cycle with no actual progress/results so he tries to teach his son how not to fall into anger and learn to deal with his feelings and all of a sudden he's not masculine anymore, he's being "wussified" and "hijacked" . You mention how Gears is all masculine and made sense for emotion when Dom's wife was tortured, left completely catatonic, and her death, but, again, Kratos not just blindly following anger makes him "emotional" and soft because of "fifies".... By that logic, Dom was a little cry baby bitch for crying and feeling sad about his wife or when Fenix yells at Dom not to kill himself, wants to try to save him, and whispers his name out of sadness for his friend.. What a softie little feminine bitch, am I right? There is no God/Devil shit going on. If God made the rainbow then God made gay people as well given that homosexuality is found in nature in many different animals aside from humans (the ones who were tempted into biting the apple). Religion is a fucking joke and just a cult, keep all that fucking nonsense shit out of fucking media like video games.

Lol She looks like a good looking woman to me.... they just had to make her not look like a laura croft knock off. I don't see in what way she is unattractive she just isn't 90s hyper sexualized. We don't want our women to look like over filtered insta thots lol

[@4400seriesFAN]

How on earth is she supposed to be older, as these people say, when the game is a PREQUEL and she is working for dataDyne?

[@RealBadGaming52]

Its a Prequel ? Ah fuck they did it again

[@BeforeMoviesSucked]

UGGGGGGGHHHHH.... We only had an N64 when I was a kid, so Joanna Dark was to me what Lara Croft is to Melonie. Fortunately, I still have that N64, so my Perfect Dark experience remains safely offline in a neat little cartridge where the grubby hands of the Blue-Haired People can't reach her.

[@ShadowGamer-xx9ww]

I disagree on a massive level

[@iNINJAgamer]

I had a hunch it was her, but didn’t know she would look like that. 👀

[@Christfollower220]

I've said this before, but only one game from that showcase got me excited and that is Clair Obscur Expedition 33 because it's a game that actually has effort being put into

[@grph1t3z]

Sure buddy

[@MartinPerez-cd9uq]

“You think going from this to this is because she got older” almost spat out my water when I heard that😆

[@yangashi]

It's like they never seen a woman.

[@sevenstars4194]

Her age didn't give her wrinkles but a muscular/bigger jaw. She evolved to Batman

[@millangalo3358]

Evolved to kratos in the menu screens 😂

[@yule42]

i was really excited about playing the new Fable game until i saw that the female lead looks like Prince Charming from Shrek trying to be a woman

[@valterreboredo]

I still remember the N64 Perfect Dark, such a GOOD game! 👌💙

[@xXEchoXxAssault]

My eyes!!! Honestly I'm surprised Doom Guy isn't non-binary or something like that yet. Remember this IS Bethesda we're talking about; the same weirdos who made Wokefield where half the NPCs can't wait to tell you their pronouns and the majority of bosses are female. We can only hope they don't mess it up, but only time will tell

[@lostvayne9146]

its ID software rather than bethesda. But rather than make Doom guy non binary, I would think they would make Doom girl instead.

[@ironclad7768]

Well, in Doom Eternal you do have the "mortally challenged" collective.

[@Jada_Maru]

The problem with Fable is they tried to have cartoonish expressions from realistic character models. One of the very first things any art department should do before the first pixel is drawn is decide on mood and tone of the art. Everything has to come together as a unified style. And if you want hyper expressive characters, you CAN NOT use realistic human faces. It comes off looking weird and the models look disfigured. The art director of Fable should have known this.

[@laracroftrumana]

This is "Johan Dark" imagine TR12

[@deusvlad2.083]

You nailed it Mel

[@AlphonsoFrett-xz6pi]

Thanks again for pointing out the hypocrisy 😅

[@JarlBarbossa]

Yup. The xborgs were acting like this was a huge W but I saw was multi plat games and 🏳️‍🌈✊🏿🇮🇱 nonsense.
