Of course they are. All female characters in videogames need to look like supermodels to them.

This I could understand, because I didn't realize it was Perfect Dark until the title came up. And I only say this because of her hair color.

That said the game looks pretty cool.

A lot of comments were complaining about her being a woman in general, not realizing she's been a main game protagonist since likely before many of them were born.

She's still got some of the coloring in her bangs that Zero Jo had, but the styling is right on with the original.

Ok was the jaw really necessary? Im not on the supermodel bandwagon, but theyre making her look like a bad character design.

I was about to say I'm actually almost going to miss FortuneCookie running in to tell us how integral to the plot Joanna being hot is, and that this new design is ruining not just the game but the entire medium and there's no artistic value anymore if every single woman isn't comically attractive

But then Vyrulisse stepped in to fill that gap so we're good

She reminds me of some celebrity, maybe Kristen Stewart, a little bit.

i'm tired of hyper-realism and face models and all that. perfect dark is a perfect candidate for stylization and an actual art style. something- anything to set it apart from all the other hyper-realistic shooters.

same with fable, idk why they're shooting for grotesquely realistic when none of the other ones were like that

I agree, but as far as the general audience is concerned, realism > stylistic graphics

I don't agree, but there's a reason these companies keep pursuing realism.

People would be crying regardless. Literally every time a game starring a woman was revealed in the xbox showcase, the twitch chat had a whole bunch of users posting "woman" in it to point it out, as if it's a crime to have a woman as the main character.

Anything other than straight white dudes is insanely triggering to them. It didnt used to be this bad. Conservative brain rot is leaking everywhere.

Why do they do this?
Detailed facial scanning tech is becoming more commonplace but still isn't quite there yet and often times actors' characters look different than their real selves. A lot of developers are too lazy to manually touch up the models and tweak animations.

Naughty Dog is a perfect example of a developer that understands these limitations and works around them. This is why Uncharted and TLOU still have top-tier facial capture

Well, there was also an outcry when GTA San Andreas was revealed, with many upset that they had to play as a Black guy in it.

But in regards to recent outcries, this is a result of the alt-right digging its hooks into the nerd culture, as they deliberately targeted young, White men within the culture as they felt that they would be outcasts, perfect for molding into their alt-right parrots.

We know the type of female characters that don't trigger them. Characters like EVE from Stellar Blade. Aka ones based on models.
