Someone brought up that the whole "big boobs are bad" argument is as well. As in, people who says female characters having big breasts is bad because it sexualizes women, so they need to bring it down.

Well apparently people fail to understand there are women who have a pretty big breast size.

I don't find large breasts problematic in and of themselves. It's how they are displayed, and what this large-breasted character's role is in the story. Not their primary role--ALL of their roles. And if one of their roles is "the cocktease," that's a problem.

The hard thing--and we just discussed this the other day--it's very difficult to gauge intent. It's hard for me to think to myself, "Oh, well, this female character just happens to have large, nearly exposed breasts. That doesn't mean she's being sexualized--that's just how she dresses!"

I can't do that. If it's in a piece of art, chances are, it's done intentionally. Take those cutscenes from that new Fire Emblem game--there's a LOT of breast gags in that game, apparently. Clearly, they're intentionally doing that. But, frankly, I can't think of a SINGLE big-breasted female character in a game that wasn't overtly designed to be sexually tantalizing in some way. They're all cockteases. Please, please name me some, if you're so sure of yourself.

How are they supposed to feel when people instantly say "THATS WRONG!!!" when it's thrown in any form of media? Someone brought that up with Tifa and the remake of FF7, and it does bring up a point (because the girl, who happened to have big breasts, actually felt ashamed because of what I said).

That's a valid point, and Tifa is an interesting example, but I ain't ever played Final Fantasy, so I can't really gauge whether or not she was overtly sexualized or not. Forgive me if I don't take your word for it--even if there's a single scene where she does something goofy with her funbags, or some other fanservice-y shit like that, then... she fails the "test", as it were.

So again, I'm not saying it's bad to have large breasts in games--maybe SOME people are saying that, but I'm not--what I'm saying is that it's generally pretty obvious that whenever there's a character with large breasts, the only reason they are is because it makes men's dicks hard--and that, to me, has no place in video games.

She's popular because not only can she look good, but she's a good person while doing it.

That was actually pretty clever. I like that. Did you come up with it yourself?

This is common sense

Jeez I don't know why you're so snippy today

And my reasoning is that if pain is a warning of sorts, and an animal is literally being eaten alive, they were already "warned". You'd just think that after millennia of evolution, there would be something like a body going numb in that kind of situation.

i don't even know where i'd be if i was born 100 years ago

BO3. The beta is fun so far.

I too enjoy the same shit and "momentum" that AW did better even though Treyarch is saying momentum is key. It's just a gimmick.

It's still the same engine, and piss poor hit detection.

And the guns sound even worse than last games. Treyarch makes shitty gun noises post WaW.

I've heard that BO3's movement system is a gimmick from a couple of other sources. The reason Titanfall's movement system worked was because the maps were designed around the movement, and allowing people to make their own routes. What I've seen of BO3 is that the maps are very linear and they basically force you on certain parkour routes. Titanfall had very large maps that allowed you to build massive speed and work creatively to decide where you go. BO3 appears to be the polar opposite.
