A Rant On Games and Boobs

[RGBVideo]

True, the ratio of big ones to small ones is very much exaggerated in games. But then again, so are a lot of other physical traits - I played NWN for several years on various servers and I saw maybe two or three characters that used the "fat" body type. "OMG everyone here is so svelt, muscular, and trim? How can that be?"

I guess you didn't play games before 1998.

Stfu n00b.

Of course I did. They just weren't RPGs.

So eat a ****, *******.

(b) Has a realistically sexist theme (no female soldiers, etc).

well history has shown that women warriors are a reality, blame the church for it not being so common after the fall of the roman empire(roughly).
How this relates to the boob thing, well all i can think of is the small ammount of evidence found in Africa; a couple of female skeletons from the bronze age that had evidence of their right most boobs being removed - presumably to allow them to use a bow, as they had been buried with weapons etc(I think it was all about the myth of the amazon warrior stuff).

We have games where we get to run over living beings with cars, cut their heads off, slash open their abdomen, shooting them with various sorts of weapons, causing blood to flow freely, etc. IOW, extreme (gratuitous) violence.

And people complain about the size of boobs on a couple of women characters? This makes me feel like ripping their heads off with my bare hands!

and here we see evidence of why we should be more concerned over the levels of extreme graphic violence in games, rather than a few pointy polygon 'bristols'

Rereading some of this thread I think Zevico may have pulled off an outrageously brilliant troll. I prefer to think of it that way, anyway.

I think we've reached a point where we can have both. The reason boobs weren't in games such as BG 2 were because of graphical limitations and the fact it was a top down view and you had to encompass the entire playing area.

No i will never buy a game because of big boobs. The gameplay has to be there. But I'm not going to complain because they are there, as long as the game is fun to play.

9/10 - Could have used more pictures.

9/10 - Could have used more pictures.

Pictures would have made it far, far too obvious, if it was a troll. The thread would very soon be downgraded to immature joking. No--if it was a troll, the quality and length of the serious replies would have been the best reward, making it a far better one than before. And if it was a troll, I confess I would be sorely tempted to go that extra step and uses pics--thereby destroying the quality of the thread. But it isn't a troll, I'm afraid.

Corrected for truth.

[Dis]

more pictures?I can do that.

I still haven't bought this game. I was hoping it would drop a little more in price. I will eventually get it I think.

edit: that image was too large for the screen. I'll attach it instead.

[Dis]

here are some boobs. I hear the game is a decent game though.

[Dis]

this is fan art, not in game art. but it deserves a viewing.



edit: too big

this thread has sucked until you got here!

[Nostromo]

I agree with Zevico when he says that women in games should be 100% natural. Damn it, they should write on the box: 100% natural. Its what he said, right?

This thread reminds me of Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, you know the console game. The pic doesn't do justice to these puppies

[DrSpike]

A nice development for the thread - didn't see that coming.
