Petra's outfit turns into one of those "sexy tribal" lady outfits. And Eldelgard's top section looks somewhat vacuum sealed onto her.
It's very juvenile. I write too as a hobby and I can't imagine nor understand trying to make every character sexually appealing to me. Make them interesting not just a vehicle for your fetishes.
Ah yes, the old Vampirella school of clothing.Y's 8 had a free weekend and I've kind of been in the mood to play a Y's game since I watched someone play Y's 3 the other day.
Man, after a certain point, the women just stop wearing clothes huh.
Man, so.

Are you talking about the Simone boss fight? I don't remember the camera being a problem in that scene, so I'm trying to remember what you might be referring to.So it's weird, right? Like...I get the whole, fake anime mesopotamia thing they're going for where everyone basically wears slings as regular clothes, it's hot, it's temperate, I get it, thin excuse for sexy outfits, whatever.
No shirt, leapord print bathing suit bottom, illfitting torn leggings, too large overalls that are about to fall off, 12 years old.
Who is this for?
Even Yoko Taro is like, "I was horny".
They're good, sexy designs that are INCREDIBLY out of place and result in sort of painting the last bastion of humanity as being a bunch of maids.
Most of the themes explored in Nier Automata are pretty much undercut by the fact that they spent so much fucking time on 2B's ass, especially the otherwise very good sidequest about a certain boss who hates the way she looks because she can't attract the attention of a certain asshole, so she goes through revision after revision after revision to make herself beautiful. Then two seconds later, the camera basically gives 2B a colonoscopy because "the moment is over, find the protags as sex objects again plox."
If 2B's butt was the game's selling point, how come Nier: replicant/gestalt never got #1 in selling charts?
I think many of use of caught up with a few things.
There a alot of vacuum sealed outfits for many of the FE:3H women.
Did you guys watch it? It's mainly male skin that's shown! That's why I was surprised. My expectations totally subverted.
Still not good enough cause they still were willing to present their female characters in weird views.
She's from Monster Hunter World during the Odogaron hunt.
I haven't seen any discussion on this, but it stuck out to me when watching the scene. It's only talked about in passing, just another bit of jargon worldbuilding used mainly to give the narrative an aura of cool. It doesn't feel malicious, but it definitely isn't considerate. I'm a fan of a lot of Kojima's games, and it's really disappointing to see him continue to fall down like this. At least this time one could argue it's more a lack of basic rigor in his writing rather than open, clearly intentional pandering. Small victories?
Look at it this way: at least we got yaoi men in the game like the Persona series. I needed more shipping fuel anyways, less for the women and more for the men.
I'll back you up on Panzer Dragoon Saga, it's also the first game that comes to mind when I think about cinematic experience. I wasn't sure if it came out before MGS though haha, I thought they were roughly at the same time.
It also goes against the naming trend of the original Ginyu force members-Bandai announced today, that the new Dragon Ball game will have an original character called Bonyu, she's an ex-Ginyu Force member (supposedly the first and only known female member):
My take is that while I'm not a fan of her as of right now (gonna have to wait for more info), at least Toriyama is using another body type and is one of his least problematic designs!
...And I know the series is all about making puns, but it's weird that her name means breast milk in Japanese, and it was greenlighted...
Yeah, and it's certainly not the only cinematic game that was out or in development around then. I mean, Shenmue was years along by then as well. It's pretty hard to argue that Kojima revolutionized cinematic storytelling in games...he's more just a participant in a movement that was already happening. I believe that people just think of him because MGS is the first game they encountered that started to implement these principles.
Man, the description prior to the reveal of this design was all about how she's SooOoOoO busty. I am relieved!Bandai announced today, that the new Dragon Ball game will have an original character called Bonyu, she's an ex-Ginyu Force member (supposedly the first and only known female member):

THe mention of FMV games have me war flashbacks to Dragon's Lair and the main characters stubborn refusal to listen to the input.
... oh damn that's why its milk!

I honestly think that games becoming cinematic has only hurt them. It gives them more "cred" maybe, but it's pretty literally antithetical to being a game. My thinking whenever this gets brought up is, "why not just make a movie?" It's one of the things that really frustrates me about the move to disc-based games. Movies became practically de-facto, and I think that legacy has not aged well.
At the very least, in an industry and genre where studios expect people to take Velvet Crowe seriously when she's dressed like this:
2B (and probably NieR as a whole) is probably not the worst offender. Soul Calibur and her treatment in it is quite a different story though.
