    Well as director Joel Schumacher once said: people like to see beautiful people. That’s why (lead) actors are usually very beautiful, regardless of gender. I mean sure, sometimes you just need Danny DeVito but you get the point

    Although personally I don’t see what’s the problem with the screenshot, just replying to what OP said

    Disclaimer: I haven’t heard him saying it myself, Mike from channel RedLetterMedia mentioned he saw an interview with him on this topic. But regardless, it made sense to me

      Too true. Sometimes you need beautiful people, but sometimes you need perfection.

        Somebody wake up their GIMP, we’re gonna need to see what a perfect Ciri looks like.

      @[email protected] how does one define “beautiful”? By who’s standard? Yours? Mine? It’s subjective and also cultural. Then there’s realness which an abundance of shows & movies also follow, casting the correct person for the mood & vibes.

      In other words… I call bullshit on Schumacher.

        Beauty is subjective but I’m willing to bet I has distribution or atleast some agreement. There are definitely people who other people tend to find more attractive than others.

          @[email protected] by who’s ideals?

          White westeners?
          East Asians?
          Southeast Asians?

          The moment you try to define beauty, you just end up a ignorant xenophobe.

          Why is it bad to let characters age and look mildly real to the hard life that is these videogames?

            I’m not arguing characters shouldnt look normal. I was arguing the idea that there isn’t some consistency to what people generally consider attractive. I’d say across all of humanity, including all races there’s probably some agreement among attractiveness. Even without trying to define what it is. I’d say if you had people rank a group there would be some people that came out above others. I don’t think people’s opinion on attractiveness is fully random.

            Even across races. Ofc there would be variance between cultural groups but internally those groups probably have some consistency.

            I think you sound like an ignorant xenophobe.

            What even is your point, no one is beautiful? Only certain people are beautiful? Everyone is a bigot? No one is?

            I similarly don’t see them actually making any comments against our even about the aging, that just seems to be an angry rant on your part.

              @Madison420 it’s that “beauty” is both subjective and very cultural. Do you not understand that?

              Add in that this is supposed to be a warrior of some kind living a hard life, maybe a glossy finish wouldn’t make any sense, eh?

                I understand that. It’s you that seems confused about it.

                You’ll again notice the other commentator did not mention if she is or isn’t beautiful.

                Your anger is at best misplaced but imo just facially absurd, like your just trying to find something to be mad about.

                  @Madison420 anger? No friend, no anger, only laughter at the stupidity, ignorance, and sexism of sade little gamer boys.

                  And did you miss the phrase “DEI ugly stick” in the original post by the twitter user?

                    So definitely anger, neat.

                    Did you not notice they haven’t defended it?
