There's a reason so many people have responded defensively to this topic.
Ryanti's post was just longer than the others, and more passionate... So I was pretty disturbed to see the responses to it.
I'm not saying that this is what you said, or what you meant, but this is how what you said could be interpreted, and how it could provoke defensive responses.
"...being a rough bitch visually is refreshing to see."Â
(Interpreted as preferable.)
"I personally feel that it shouldn't be that foreign of a concept."Â
("More people should be rough.")
"Pretty characters in a rough world just come off as very unrealistic to me."Â
(Needs no explanation... Saying an entire group of characters are less realistic than yours.)
"...looking fresh faced and bug eyed just doesn't seem to fit the world..."Â
(Final Fantasy's worlds are some of the worlds where it DOES fit.)
