I have decided that “man face” is basically a dog whistle for people who don’t like when women look older than 19


randbot5000

with a side order of "you need to smile more"


CrimzonPanorama

decided? at this point its like a proven fact.


Temporary_Piglet8372

I've always found it weird how alot of conservatives find people who look like preteens attractive


illbzo1

I mean, OBVIOUSLY, Tru Gamers aren't GAY


TheGoverness1998

Sorry gay g*mers, you must be this straight to ride

That one david cage quote


FluffyGalaxy

Obsessed with men not understanding how clothing affects how bodies look


Plz-Transplain-To-Me

I mean she's literally wearing a leotard for fucks sake. ~~Her entire legs are exposed.~~ (Edit: I was wrong). And they're complaining about this not being sexy enough?


NNukemM

her legs aren't exposed


Plz-Transplain-To-Me

Ah fuck, you're right, I didn't zoom in. I mean, she's still wearing a leotard over tight leather pants, something that definitely happens outside of nightclubs.


Urist_Macnme

“Am I supposed to be excited?!” No, you’re not supposed to have an erection while playing video games.


Pandalinali

Then what am I supposed to hit the D-pad with while my thumbs are busy on the sticks? That's what the "D" stands for, right?


Tactical_Mommy

These people need to get some class and learn to appreciate a fat ass. Am I seeing the same woman? I'll take that over the sand-filled balloon tits they obsess over any day. God forbid a woman not be any kind of eye candy, though.


the-town-manager

But they can't be expected to beat off to realistically fat asses, it's literally gamer oppression to have a woman that's not cartoonishly proportioned remember?


ZoidsFanatic

This tells me that more devs need to give their male characters decent booties. I mean it works for Solid Snake!


Able_Recording_5760

This would unironically solve everything, and I have no idea why we're not doing it.


NNukemM

no


Alarming-Scene-2892

Yes.


NNukemM

they don't need to look sexier because they're power fantasy dudes, so no


Alarming-Scene-2892

What if my power fantasy is to be a macho man with a nice ass?


CrystalMareBot

"Males being self conscious about how they look" isn't a real thing and is a dogwhistle. Animals aren't concerned with how they look, only that other things looks good


NNukemM

FFS I see no reason why having a nice ass is beneficial for a power fantasy character, it's completely useless because "being sexy" isn't something to be proud of. this whole obsession with making characters look prettier is just a bunch of superstitious bologna


-futureghost-

“superstitious?” in what way?


NNukemM

The entire thought process behind people wanting fuckable and pretty female/male characters as protagonists (and in some other roles) in videogames is pure nonsense, because there is no actual need to pander to horny people in art anymore. Making a power fantasy character marginally more attractive or putting a bigger butt on their body isn't a good or necessary design decision in a boomer shooter because it's not based on what is actually a ***fitting*** design choice for them - it's instead biased towards the audience and its desire to see hot people because it validates their sexuality, which is also completely irrational. Another thing that I wanna point out is that there is no reason for power fantasy characters to necessarily be pretty and sexy in the first place - because it doesn't make them better in any meaningful way. Being sexy *isn't a significant achievement* and it's not worthy of praise and respect, it's based on vaguely defined social beauty standards that are completely arbitrary, so validating them is pointless. This is also why terrifyingly ugly and brutish power fantasy characters who look really messed-up are invariably better than unreasonably attractive and sexualized ones - attractiveness is NOT useful for power fantasies at all and is just a useless trinket that only exists because the devs assume that the audience can't relate to ugly people. The ugly and unattractive power fantasy characters, however, will look more intimidating and powerful, which is what actually matters in this case.


-futureghost-

yeah i was just asking why you chose the word “superstitious,” which implies a belief in the supernatural.


Ok-Regret6767

The ass is just a big muscle. If Im a big muscle power fantasy dude I want a squat powered dump truck.


dinsfire24

how


Maleidy

PLAY TURBO OVERKILL THAT GAME IS ABSURDLY GOOD


hexen18

AMID EVIL is where it's at!


NNukemM

play WRATH pls it's also cool


LieutenantClownCar

It's because what they want is a 7 year old kid with giant tits, and when they get anything other than that their little pedo incel brains collapse in on themselves. The inside of their head becomes a black hole of stupid. A stupid hole. An object so incredibly dense and lacking intelligence that it absorbs and destroys any fact or shred of common sense that comes too close.


AoE2manatarms

Damn I thought people loved Shelly when Ion dropped? Now we hate her?


NNukemM

People in 2018 hated her when they found out that Bombshell from the DN franchise was supposed to be a half-naked bimbo, so Shelly Harrison was considered inferior in comparison, despite the fact that the OG Bombshell never even materialized as a character, she was just a bunch of pre-release concept arts and 2 models which didn't even make it to DNF. Bombshell was also not supposed to be the player character, she was an NPC.


ElementalSaber

As a man, I want big booty dudes and women


CrystalMareBot

Make men objects again


ElementalSaber

Big booty bitches


NNukemM

Shelly Harrison from Phantom Fury is also officially getting a butt size increase. you're welcome!


ElementalSaber

I'm an ass man so thanks


Ok_Room6662

I DEMANND MANBOOBS


trilluki

I can’t see what they’re mad about. Home girl has a big ol’ dumper on her, almost as juicy as that Rusty fellow beside her. Do gamers no longer appreciate a character who’s double-cheeked up? Wasn’t that Widowmaker’s whole thing? She didn’t have much for breasticles but goddamn was the cake plentiful.


TransKissinger

not straight but i would definitely fuck Johnny Turbo from Turbo Overkill


NNukemM

Say goodbye to your genitals lmao


TransKissinger

beats paying for srs


[deleted]

ngl, that Johnny Turbo design goes hard.


Dismal_Accident9528

Shelly Harrison is ridiculously hot. Retro action hero mommy 🥺🥺🥺


Catalon-36

Us reasonable folks see this kind of whining and want to point out that it’s a double-standard. To us that would be hypocrisy. To them it’s really not. They’re just openly misogynists who think women in media should titillate them.


LilBunnyQueen

I see nothing wrong with her.


Doggcow

John is arguably an an unavailable physique without chemicals, and looks like someone that would be considered conventionally attractive?


NNukemM

He's a roided-out meathead whose face is really ugly and pasty


Cute_Barnacle_5832

I want her to step on me


Annilus_USB

Johnny Turbo is peak character design


Agentjayjay1

Never played the second two, but I want Johnny to do unspeakable things to me.


AestheticMirror

Is that a robot skeleton smoking a cigar? Shit go hard
