That is to say, the guys are all very, very obviously made to be highly attractive, and in a big way, towards heterosexual female sensibilities. This makes some guys uncomfortable in the same way heavily sexualized women in games makes women uncomfortable. It's a bit of comeuppance and it is something I am highly appreciative of.
Of course, they then release Cidney who sports D-cup breasts spilling out of a push-up bra with an unzipped jacket and then all of that good will is undone, but...
At any rate, if your argument is that you want a more varied cast, why are you so heavily focused on the 'pretty boy' aspects of the cast as opposed to their homogeneity? It's a very telling choice of words.
Because I care for realistic casts, and you are assuming that I am somehow unhinged or disturbed by such a pretty cast is an assumption.
Stop assuming my wants, intentions, or desires. Their is nothing telling other than what I've said or stated which is: too many dolls. Assumptions are logical fallacies. So stop assuming because you are becoming logically inconsistent and going off into smoke screens of gender normative, inserting red herrings of "Cidney" and "big breasted" and how women are by in large sexualized in media. Take your ideological rhetorical bullshit somewhere else. I have no issues if someone wants to objectify because we objectify all the time; individuals can either do so in healthy manners or not.Â
I never argued it is wrong or right to have this many "pretty people." I made a personal statement and voiced a critique: too many pretty boys. I can in fact have an issue with the design choice without having to bring morality into the picture. I can also have the same issues if all I see are big breasted females as the heroine line up, and say to myself: this cast isn't anything resembling life. It's just a bunch of pretty people catering to sex appeal, and fair enough I am not interested in such shallow games.
I used a gender to, shocker, define who and what I was talking about, and once again I used the word pretty to clarify who and what I was critiquing. You are turning pretty boy into a dysphemism and now throwing in ierrleveancies of not using "proper" wording of homogeneity? Get off, seriously, what the "fuck" are you going on about now?
