The Flood / Re: Would you ever date someone taller than you?

If someone doesn't date another simply for height differential, it shows how self conscious they are, and their lack of confidence.

Personally I liked the Fellowship of The Ring the most. I know it doesn't have the massive battles like the 3rd one, or the introduction to many cool new people like the 2nd, but for some reason just the sense of a grand adventure starting has always been something really cool to me.

And just a lot of the settings I preferred too. That cave (forgive me, I forget the name) they had to pass through under the mountains had to be some of the most intense stuff to me.

Elsweyr/Valenwood since they're side by side. It'd make sense too considering the Aldmeri Dominion and all that.

So you're saying what only qualifies is fat and ugly women?

Isn't that more shallow than anything?
Luci you're always telling me not to treat things so black and white.

It's not that black and white. There isn't just "impossibly attractive" and "fat and ugly"--there's a middle ground.

Alyx (I basically consider her the paragon of female characters right now) reaches that middle ground pretty well.
She's not ugly, but she's not impossibly beautiful to the point where you start questioning the motives of the developers.
Fair enough. My mistake.

i would like to point out that I think most girls in real life like to make themselves look good. Like, is that a point we've glossed over a bit perhaps? That a woman can try to look good and present themselves in a way that is attractive?
That's an obvious point of course but it is a realistic point imo.
I also agree with this.


And now I eat dinner

and no shit strong male characters exist, but there are fan serviced males too. I'm just saying that looking at it through one lens is wrong, and while they did fanservice some of those characters, THE ENTIRE POINT WAS THAT THE CHARACTERS ACTUALLY HAVE A CHARACTER AND PERSONALITY THAT OVERCOMES ANY OF THEIR DAMN LOOKS!

Regardless of if you like the outfits or not, that part is true.
Well, I did ask for female characters that are both strong and aren't designed to be physically attractive...

And yeah you can count Fem Shep considering Jennifer Hale does a great job voice acting her. Just because you can create a character, that shouldn't take away from them.

7572
The sex scenes barely show anything, and it's more movie tier. It's just as much fanservice for Shepard as well. It's not a big deal.

Okay well I have some pictures of female leads (or supporting lead, whatever) that don't rely on fanservice, just because I said I would. So here ya go (it's quite a bit, so sorry)

This was bottom paged. NOTICE IT >:C

 >posts Anya and not Sam
I was thinking of posting both but I figured one sufficed since it's just turtles. Besies, Sam does a better job as Chloe in Uncharted, and Noelle is obsessed with Sam so no thanks.

Quiet can go burn in hell. They did a fanservice character in MGS3 in the name of Eva, and they actually had a reason behind it and she had a strong character. Her fanservice was what she used as the typical spy thing, but it didn't define her character entirely.

Quiet is literally just a walking T&A show for no reason other than "she needs sun", BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE BECAUSE THAT WAS THE SAME REASON IN MGS3 AND IT WAS AN OLD MAN IN A GHILLIE SUIT!

I'm pretty sure they always had a character going for her when they rebooted it. Not looks.
this one isn't nearly as bad, but it's also snowing out
Come on, Verb. If you played it, you'd realize that no, her character is actually pretty damn well done.

7578
She's wearing a tank top

That's not exactly bad is it? If there is ANY cleavage showing, it's bad?
those are not the only two variables

bust size is another issue i see
i'm sure the game has breast physics, too, but i could be wrong
the vaguely seductive look in her eyes

being well-endowed isn't inherently bad, but they're obviously accentuated in ways i have trouble defining, because i'm not really an expert on aesthetics

then i look at alyx, and she doesn't really have any glaring issues that i can see
It doesn't have breast physics, and there is nothing "seductive" in that game she gives at all, seeing as she's always getting stabbed and shot at. In fact the first hour of that game is basically "how many ways can Lara get fucked up?"

7579
What would make it "fully there" then? I'm curious.

He simply wants there to be a good reason for her to look like that. And there never is a good reason.

I mean, a tank top is better than a bikini, but a t-shirt is better still and would fit perfectly fine with Lara specifically.

Wait, no that was wrong. OKAY POINT IS

just because some skin may be showing, that doesn't always mean it's suddenly making the character shallow. Or if a woman has big breasts. A thing that may shock some people (brace yourself), is that there are women out there

who actually have big breasts

I know, crazy right? If women should all care you like you say, how are they supposed to feel when people suddenly condemn a character because of her bust size?
lara's redesign is a step in the right direction, but it's not fully there yet

I'm guessing this

That's a joke, Verb. Relax.

we don't have to condemn characters that almost make it--but we have to make it clear that it's not good enough

i do, anyway

7582
We can


Thing is, all shallow characters rely on fanservice, but not all fanservice relies on shallow girls

did that make any sense? I think yes, but paranoid no
lara croft is a really bad example

alyx is one

i want, like, five hundred thousand more
The new Lara Croft is one that doesn't just rely on tits. That's why I used her. If you want me to get you more examples, I can.

Still one of the more skimpy looking Final Fantasy characters who's actual personality and character overcomes anything her appearance may show.
why can't we just have a female character who is strong WITHOUT having a fanservice-y design

for once
We can

though they do tone her down in sub-sequential games, but whatever shut up

Proof that not all girls with massive breasts or short clothing = sluts or mindless fanservice


I keep using this example, I know.

But the Supreme Court in Japan just upheld the law that when married, women have to change their surnames

I honestly do think forcing the change is rather stupid. I get however that the family name is a much bigger thin in Asian culture than in most others, so I can't just say "oh well it's the same", because it isn't.

Still, just because it'd allow women to the option to change it, that doesn't mean all will.

At this point I am genuinely worried about your country.
Why? None of these people stand a chance.

Hilary was always going to win.
That's still quite worrying.
I don't like Hilary, but I don't know about worrying.

What do you mean specifically?
I don't really care much about American politics at this point, but she hardly seems like an amazing candidate. Known lies, many corporate ties, swinging on the issues... It doesn't help that she comes across kind of like a bitch. I realize that this applies to most candidates and that she's still better than most, but that really doesn't say much.
You're right, but really when it comes to American presidents, it's a choice between the shiniest of two turds. Hillary I think is the better choice out of an overall shit show.
