Long time lurker who occasionally shows his wife ridiculous things in gaming that are posted here.
Not sure if this has been discussed but just here but I saw this beauty on the front page of Steam today:

And um, yeah.
I never used the word "trust". I don't trust Nintendo will do right by Zelda but I will not back down that they do deserve the benefit of the doubt which is entirely different.
I'd appreciate if you didn't put words in my mouth. I never said Peach is progressive or the bar on anything. Just that it's one of many reasons to point out there's been some changes coming from Nintendo. I even acknowledged they're not happening at the pace some would want but they're there and this make me want to remain positive.
Oh you know. Another old series from another old company given an un-earned benefit of the doubt. Including shutting down criticism from women.
Since that thread is basically an unofficial OT as this point, a word of caution for potentially engaging in cross-thread/community commentary. Just warning you for everyone's sake. 😩
Well then we fundamentally disagree about what benefit of the doubt means, because to me it implies a level of trust that the subject has changed or will not perform how you might typically expect. I don't trust Nintendo to make Zelda's role in BotW 2 much different to the first one, at absolute most I anticipate a brief period in which she's a friendly npc before she gets damsel'd again or otherwise removed from an active role in the story - which is essentially not all that different from front-loading the flashbacks in BotW would be.
I don't particularly consider Peach's response in the post-game of Odyssey indicative of any change on the part of the rest of Nintendo, particularly the entirely separate team working on BotW 2, and the removal of "male and female" from Animal Crossing is an invention of the American branch's English localization process and does not exist in any other release of the game.
No worries there, as they just made a Sakura Wars gacha game that completely bombed. I mean, really tanked. Like quickest-shutdown-for-a-major-gacha-ever tanked. It also cost them a TON of money to make.

Well not officially of course but it was heavily rumored that the reason was this one :
Fujishima hasn't been the sole character designer of a Tales game since Vesperia. Case in point, Eleanor was the only main character that he drew for Berseria. All the dumb designs have mostly come from the other artists.
Really?I didn't know that...thanks for bringing it up!
Weirdly enough, I couldn't find a simple list, which I thought would be on a wiki or fansite. But I can still mostly sum up his Tales designs (though I probably missed a side character or two)
I miss the artstyle and designs so much. The new ones just aren't half as appealing to me.I may be wrong, as I have only played about 4 hours of the Saturn version and only seen videos of the 2019 game (so I dont know what other clothes or scenes are there)
Also, these may not be extreme examples (compared to other ones shared here), but:
Instead of more progressive, it feels to me that Sakura Wars 2019 is actually more sexualised than the 1996 Sakura Taisen (Sega Saturn) original.
Quick comparison:
1996 (image from the Anime made a few years later, but still using the same design-aesthetics)
2019
Makes sense that he designed Rose. I liked her look. Practical and nicely colored.
It's not foot binding. That's just what Wyverian feet look like, for men and women.So I'm playing and enjoying MonHun Stories 2. One of the costumes you get for an NPC is a costume from MH Rise I believe. I thought it looked ok.
But uhhh... You can't see it from the front but I'm pretty sure this is a foot binding.
At first I thought it was an idle animation or something but that is just how it is. She walks and runs on that and just looking at it is unpleasant.

I don't have any more words for this.

...horse shoes don't make sense to me on horse feet, let alone human feet. Especially horse shoes on human shoes for human feet.She not traditional human but that not a good excuse when we got horse girls who have normal feet but horse shoe shoes

Today I learned.
I'll post about uma musume when I get a chance but it generally a fun series about ladies training to be awesome runners.
Yeah, which kinda explain the choice of outfits for many of the characters. Not to say they blur the line a little with a few characters but outside of the race outfits and some dancing outfits, their school uniform, swimsuit, and casual wear are all respectful.
I haven't seen this series but I've heard the female characters aren't all that sexualized and you can't find fanart smut of them because these girls are based on real horses whom everyone in Japan implicitly understands are owned by the Yakuza.Yeah, which kinda explain the choice of outfits for many of the characters.
