Okay, I guess I'll ask: When was she reduced to begin with?

people whined that in x-men 97 her ass did not look like that ONE screen shot from the original 90s cartoon

its just gooner BS and CE is showing its views on women again by defending it

women having realistic bodies in games was nice while it lasted *Sigh*

I mean, this is a superhero game. When have they ever had realistic bodies?

Superhero men are always ripped as fuck, so I dont see why the superhero women cant be sexy too.
The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction has to make sense.

I kinda hate how scared a lot of western devs are to be horny these days. Just do what Vanillaware does and make the guys real goonie, too!
I agree with this.
I loved Dragon's Crown with its artstyle, similar to old fantasy art, they did their research well.

PS. The art in the OP is really good, looks more faithful to the older comics.

Have you never seen a woman who looks after her health & fitness? Her chest isn't even that big.

You're right. We must all hate women or see them as objects because we're not openly offended by D-cups on one in a game where the men also look like this:

It's not even about the men vs women thing. Women gamers also vastly prefer sexed up women.

I'd meet Ace halfway and say that the angry reddit discourse gets upset whenever any woman isn't sexed up, and that's a dumb thing to get upset by. They are both extant things.

Right, both deserve to exist.

Not every woman character has to be sexed up. But ones that have fanservice can exist too.

look i shouldnt have said what i said how i said it

but this topic was coming across as saying all female characters need to go back to being sexy porn stars

TC didnt say "rogue is coming to marvel rivals" it was specifically about her ass

In the comics she was already in her 97 outfit and unreducted as it were

Genuinely asking not questioning the statement. Does it actually happen outside of Anime/Japanese content?
Yes, it happens a lot and it's annoying

Attractive characters mainly.

Whether they're dressed up in platemail or a chain bikini varies from woman to woman, or by her preference from one day to another. If you look at old MMO spaces, such as World of Warcraft, women would use everything from said platemails to said bikinis.

It's actually a disservice on the part of western game developers to actively avoid anything that could be considered attractive for female characters, clothing or otherwise. They're so worried about the dreaded "male gaze" that they're making everyone miserable.

I think it's also context dependant. Why are women wearing chainmail bikinis and high heels into battle in the same exact setting where men are wearing protective gear? It's kind of absurd and the complaints are apt.

It's different in MR though. The devs aren't overly horny goons that have never seen a woman before and have to express their weird ass fantasies with their character design. They understand that comics and games are escapist fantasy for both genders and they design their characters so everyone is sexy, not just the women. In that it's very refreshing and the sexiness is welcome.

Yeah, uh, I dont know that giving a buncha dudes packages shuts down the gooner allegations.

Its weird. Like Luna Snow in her entirety is just dreadful.

As you say, context matters. A setting could easily have barbarians of all types in little more than loincloths or rough furs and it would be fine. As for things like 'boob armor', if its any sort of high fantasy setting you could include options of that type and options that are more unisex in design. At some level most games include the idea of escapist fantasy. So there may very well be a time and place for looks or styles that are more centered on attractive forms than utilitarian function. Basically, there's a lot of variation between "wearing a stripper's uniform" and "what in the Concord-fuck is that?"

I honestly have no idea what Concord's character designs look like. I'm gonna have to check them out.

Now if you want to argue that Luna's designs are bad fashion, you won't get much push back from me, but as a gooner character, I just don't see it. Sure she has a swimsuit skin but it's easily the most conservative of the swimsuit skins. But even then, the swimsuits are mostly just swimsuits.

But the rest of her skins are hardly overly revealing or goonery.

Had to do a quick check myself. Concord is an example of over-correcting. The designs aren't gooner bait, but then they made them all so dull and unappealing that they forgot to even make the characters cool looking.

Take Zed from League of Legends (Different genre I know) for a quick example. Very few people are horny for Zed as far as I can tell, but people generally think he looks pretty badass.

Concord doesn't even have something like that. The characters are different seemingly for the sake of being different. Which isn't inherently bad, but absolutely none of their characters pop out at you.

And it's a pay to play looter shooter. In an era where the game that popularized that genre (Overwatch)* is gone and the market is flooded with f2p looter shooters.

It was a stillborn game from that alone, uninteresting designs only dug the hole deeper.

*Does TF2 count as a "looter shooter"?

Ok I can see the complaints. They really are bland. You can't really discern anything from these characters just by looking at them.

How am I supposed to play a hero shooter in current year if there's no large muscular woman? The chick with the red coat looks pretty cool though.

Chinese and Korean content does it a lot too. This game is primarily developed by a Chinese dev and Chinese staff. To a lesser degree some European devs also do this.

By far the most unique character designs all year long. Agenda gotta agenda though. Video gaming is just a money thing on social media now.

Theres 4 I see, with tons of bright coloration from all across the spectrum. Some characters have more muted palettes, but its not consistent.

There are only 2 characters with bright colors, and they don't matter individually because they're still part of a cast of bland looking characters.

Which one of them is your favorite?

wonder if the game is worth playing even if i'm just ok at online shooters. might come down to how toxic the players are if they continually screech about a "meta" if you pick one wrong person. also, not sure if marvel rivals has a ton of FOMO or microtransactions to make you play/pay or miss out on skins

It's a Marvel game, most of the people playing are going to be 13 years old. Don't worry about impressing some teenager and just play.

It does have a meta, but if you're not Top 500 then don't worry about the meta cause it doesn't apply to you anyways. Just play whoever you want.

And there are skin microtransactions but very few skins are time gated. They usually bring back skins from prior battlepasses and they just leave them in the store so you can buy them whenever you want.

For best gameplay experience you can just mute all of the chat channels and pretend like it is an offline game with just realistic bots.

Honestly it isn't anymore toxic than other online games and outside of the top players meta isn't that important. The only thing a players of any skill level should be aware of is basic team comp. Like don't run solo healer comps and at least have one tank (two is preferred though).

And like just be slightly mindful of what the enemy are playing. The only time I get mad about my teammates' choices is when the enemy is running like Storm and Iron Man and the Black Panther, Daredevil and Magik on my team refuse to switch to a character that can actually hit them. Like I'd do it but I'm solo tanking.

it's a pretty fun game to learn. Even if you dont' have the best aim, there are quite a few heroes you can still use to even a high level of play. Lots heroes are hybrids which I find is the best part about rivals. Quite a bit of rewards are available every season for free, just have to grind for them.
