It feels like ppl that post these takes have been watching too much hentai: giant tits that defy gravity, waists with no ribs, attracted to ugly bastards that just exist, etc.
I looked at BGrizzy1989’s tweets so no one else has to, and hooboy. Pro-Trump, transphobic, anti-woke, fat-shaming. As one might expect, it takes a pretty gross human being to freak out about less-than-supermodel looks on a video game character.
Probably the same people that mod those games to make the female character to look like overinflated balloons. I looked for interesting Horizon mods recently and a stupid amount of them were Aloy “enhancements” that defy realism in any way.
Based on this image and a similar one I saw…it’s makeup. They want female characters to wear makeup. They either don’t know that makeup is what makes them, “hot,” or they realized that it’s stupid for a space outlaw or a robot-apocalypse survivalist to be wearing a full face of makeup, so they have to say they’re ugly. Either way, these people don’t fuck.
LOL, yes, exactly. This is the kind of thing you learn about women when you have a girlfriend for more than a month. I think most of these guys don’t realize they’re telling on themselves when they complain about these, “ugly,” characters.
Ehh… third pic happened to me with a coworker a few years ago. I’ve never commented on or thought much about her make up, but one day she got to work and her lips were much paler than usual, so I asked her if she was ok and she told me she hadn’t put on her makeup yet.
I love that the pic on the right looks uncomfortable. That’s a customer service smile, an “a man told me to smile and I don’t feel like fighting him right now” smile, a “the photographer is really creepy but this is my job” smile
The overall view of beauty in women is already heavily skewed in general.
I still remember when that cop got caught fucking half her coworkers and 90% of the comments about it were about how she was mid when she was actually quite pretty.

I felt similarly. I know people are meaner online than in person. And I have personally known several people who just have ridiculously high beauty standards.
I didn’t understand it. As a heterosexual man, most women look good to me.
I think it’s like Americans and sugar. So much of our food is sweetened that we have to add extra sugar to our desserts and we think things that have added sugar don’t. Like our bread is too damn sweet. In a society where women are expected to wear makeup, and where most women on tv are gorgeous to the point that beautiful women play “ugly” characters our balance is thrown off. Porn doesn’t help I’m sure, but when it comes to distorting beauty standards, it can’t compare to tv, movies, and influencers. When women groom only enough to be clean it’s treated as strange. It has well known harm for girls and young women and that aspect is spreading to boys and young men. But what we see here is a different form of harm, it’s the loss of taste for what is real and natural, and in the off chance these people find themselves waking up next to a woman they’re in for a bad time.
You mean the game character doesn’t have perfect makeup and hair? Almost like she’s an outlaw on the run? Isn’t that the whole point of the game? Sounds like you think any woman who didn’t spend an hour preparing for you ahead of time is “ugly” lol
Personally I think the character above is ugly because she looks like she’s (We’re told it’s a she; honestly looks like a 14 year old boy with 70’s hair) made out of candle wax.
If they’re going for a “realistic” style, they’re achieving GameCube era results. If they’re going with an “art style” look, they’re just outright bad at it, they’ve splashed down in the river at the bottom of the uncanny valley.
Me? I wouldn’t play this game simply because it’s got a gigacorporation-owned license. There is going to be no creativity, artistry, or vision behind it, it’s this year’s bucket of marketably familiar copyrighted stimuli designed to channel wealth from humans to shareholders. Honestly, would anyone be interested in this game if it didn’t have the branding and the sound effects library?
In what possible way is the girl in the picture “ugly”? What the hell do these people want in their games? Supermodels? Porn stars?
My guess would be they want both of those things. Related ice-cold take on the Horizon series:

Yeah, it’s all the same guys that inspired this meme.

Still prefer the right one though
The fact someone voted that down is hilarious. Some poor incel crying that the world doesn’t work like they want. rofl

Maybe don’t squint and wear the same shirt?
ah yes the very famous Nora tribe makeup and makeovers
Hahaha the famous Nora dental plan

And the one on the left is giving him the “why are you existing in my space” look.
Yeah but I figure he didn’t specifically create that character model. His idea of a beautiful woman still looks miserable

What is mid?
Middle tier
So basically… mediocre?
Pretty much
Denim jacket, 80s hair, what’s not to like?
It’s clearly leather tho
My bad, in other shots it kinda looked like denim!
Yes. They want fake women that don’t exist.
The bar was set high pretty early on.
Actually… her face kinda looks like one specific softcore pr0n model.
I mean I saw a picture with the actual model side by side the game character looks ugly af
