Like no the fuck they don't, it's a video game. It's pretend. You never need to create a non-perfect character in a video game. It's a fantasy world where everyone can be perfect.

You're such an obtuse faggot it's not really worth talking to you. Heroes in a game like Resident Evil should obviously be attractive people and not random shlubs. If you're making a realistic drama about a blue collar worker maybe that does not apply.

That gets boring. But also graphics obsession forced devs to do 3d scans and even models have imperfections.

That makes no sense. First, it's a horror game, just like a horror movie - they don't make the characters perfectly pretty. They use less make-up and throw dirt on them. Second, it's a violent game so they're getting damaged and bleeding. Third, the most popular characters besides decades old, nostalgia ridden ones, are two random schlubs that don't look perfect. We JUST had a huge discussion about how Grace doesn't need to look like an Instagram whore with DLSS5.

A horror game in which the protagonist singlehandedly kills hundreds of zombies, shrugs off bites that would turn anyone else instantly into a zombie, and kills massive bosses 10x their size with just handheld weaponry. Yes, those motherfuckers should look like greek gods with those type of feats.

Exactly, most resident evil protags at least started off hot and sexy. But even the young and hot horror protags are not perfect. They usually never come out of the movie undamaged. Also you conveniently ignored my point about DLSS5 because you can't argue against that.

They're so insecure it's amazing
Fighting against strawmen other female influencers created is really something. All these beauty "standards" are created by other women. Men literally don't care
>hip dips
What is even that? I've never heard this term before. Only women care about it
>cellulite
Where? Yeah, maybe there's some, but then again no one cares. And she's showing her knees anyway (Why?)
>small boobs
Ok. And?
>kissing thighs
And? It's fine, no? Fuck, I literally never saw a single man caring about shit like this, holy fuck. Only retarded women with their own beauty standards care about this

The only thing that's not ok is hairy armpits. Shave them, dude, you smell
But then there are plenty of men who like them hairy anyway
These dumb insecure bitches don't even realize that the pussy market is inflated as fuck and they're 9/10 for a lot of men
OR maybe they perfectly realize it and are just flaunting before other retarded whores. Like "look, we're below your instagram beauty standards, but we still ride a new dick every week"
But this kind of game would require more IQ than women usually have, they can't into irony
>>
>>737383262

>>
>>737383002
I think natural beauty with it's little imperfections are more beautiful. And that's the point. Even if we designed around someone's ideal, it would be another man's whore. You can't fix the problem by throwing a filter onto everyone, it's a case-by-case problem and I think modern RE characters aren't that bad looking.
>>
>>737383859
>The only thing that's not ok is hairy armpits.
Can't say I care about this much either, though I won't pretend that attitude is common. Literally just don't be too fat and no cosmetic add-ons. That's it. I find women in our time are just tripping over themselves to make themselves as unappealing as possible as soon as the law permits.

>oh, you like this drawing??! well joke's on you, here is a flaw and here is a flaw and here too, because I'm a shitty artist actually! you must feel so stupid right now
mf if you hadn't pointed it out I would've never noticed. The knee bit is extra retarded, because she literally has to lean over forward to highlight it, which is mostly the skin folding by bending the knees the other way and not a beauty flaw, like who naturally stands like that? no one, that's who.
>>
>>737382279
Making a character ugly or below average doesn't make them more relatable. If anything its just serving the player that wants a weird representation. This case is pretty cut forward, she was super model teir thirsty for spidey. Not looking like a 40 year old retail worker. These are things that they do that make no sense.

We can pretty much end the thread on this because this is exactly the point I've tried to make. You dont see normal people bitching about this, if anything they prefer attractive characters. Its that we dont know exactly why because it ends up harming the final product at the end. No im not saying it has to be porn, or skimpy clothing or anything like that either.

>A slight overbite is attractive on women, it gives a pouty look

>Grace, a white woman, has white features

>Butt chins are literally a male beauty standard ie. Henry Cavill
Not a flaw

The only thing that could be considered a flaw is Leon's softer jawline, but part of his attractiveness is his boyish looks so it suits him. It's almost like features can't be taken as singular elements but have to be seen as part of a whole.
Xitter trannies are making shit up to farm likes ragebait retards, must be a day ending in y.
>>
>>737379686
>>737383262
people inherently have flaws and in real life we easily skim over such details while in videogames we can autistically obsess over them.

moreover subtle beauty features we can see in real life are hard to capture in games which is part of why you often see beautiful women look weird in games

The leon one is extra funny, because it's pretending the dude isn't idealized to hell and back. Like what a reach is the "butt chin" when women cream their pants over him non-stop, all the while the faces of the new female characters are the least of their flaws if at all, but their (contrary to Leon) intentionally painfully average bodies and outfits.

The funny thing is Grace actually looks leagues better than the girl she's modeled after.

Gremlin nuJill is worse than Sasha and honestly looks like Jazz Jennings sometimes.
Claire was fairly even, but since her model went off the deep end, she also looks better than her real life model.
