Why can't western devs do pretty boys?
I would say "because that's for FAGGOTS" but at least half of the western industry is comprised of them.
That's not Raiden, it's a character dressed as Raiden.
>>739149296Remember that part where the president mistook Reiden for a girl and grabbed his dick?
>>739149296same reason they can't do pretty girls
>>739149475Anon... that was not a mistake
>>739149296>Ken quits street fighting and joins Foxhound.Ebin
>>739149481Notice the better looking black has to straighten her pube hair to be more like a White woman? Why can't black bitches have some pride in dey pube heads? Shieeeet.
>>739149481I remember watching this shit unfold live, bizarre as shit
>>739149475If he was a girl he'd be grabbing her by the pussy how did he not get cancelled
>>739149579Whites do fake blond hair, that shit isn't any better. If you're not blond you just have to live with your inferior genes instead of faking it
>>739149296controlled war on the feminine started primarily, and ironically, by feminists
>>739149296The western gaming hemisphere celebrates ugliness and has made it their lifelong goal to ensure everything is devoid of beauty.
I was actually thinking about this the other day. There has literally not been a single actually attractive pretty boy in a Western-developed game ever. Can you name a single one?
Maverick is the best of the post release operators
>>739150041He's not even ugly but that Raiden cosplay is disturbing kek
>>739150002i remember when they had to release an entirely different nier game for the west because the original protagonist was a pretty boy
>becomes the most popular homosexual in Western video game industry in your pathis being physically attractive REALLY all it takes? if so, then why do they refuse to do it?
>>739150002Does Ezio in AC2 qualify, he's pretty young
Because westerners are obsessed with manliness/maturity. See: the reaction against toon Link and western tastes being so heavily skewed to realism.
>>739149987qt and beautiful raiden
>>739150002I think Adso in Blades of Fire is pretty boy.
>>739149296Video games are made for men and men don't want to see pretty boy men depicted because that's not the ideal physique for men, it's muscular people. Pretty boys are what women see as the ideal male physique.
>>739150827I thought we grew out of this phase
>>739150347Astarion's fanbase is women who romanced him
>>739150585He's just a conventionally handsome guy who happens to be clean-shaven. Nothing "pretty" about him
>>739149296It has always been this way and it's core to American culture. They will do everything in their power to fight promoting feminine aesthetics.
>>739151192The obvious solution is to make twunks (pretty faces, muscular physiques) but normies are too retarded for that
>>739151192>Pretty boys are what women see as the ideal male physique.At the same time you attack them by always labeling them gay. Not very subtle about your competitive tactics.
>>739150827>tfw you're about to enjoy something but then remember you're over 18 and start thinking about chores, stock portfolios, and how to satisfy the shareholders insteadPhew..... Close one
>>739149579you guys will seethe and literally shit your pants if you see a girl with an afro
>>739150347>being physically attractivepic not related?
>>739149579>? Why can't black bitches have some pride in dey pube heads? Shieeeet.what cause people to wanna larp as blacks
>>739151520that's because the thing underneath it is always debra wilson
>>739151106The cutest!
>>739150002When you have a beautiful male character like Alucard or Link in Western made media, steps still have to be made to diminish them by forcing them into these more submissive and weaker roles.
>>739150002western games (not counting indies) dont have attractive characters.
>>739151985If the West promoted femininity then that would be at odds with their militaristic culture
>character poorly cosplaying as a character from another franchiseThis always looks fucking weird and I wish they'd stop doing it.
>>739150002probably because your definition of attractive pretty boy is just a woman with penis
The western ideal of male beauty was never androgynous. Just look at ancient statues.
>>739151920>>739151920>steps still have to be made to diminish them by forcing them into these more submissive and weaker roles.I think you're being too optimistic. I can't think of any beautiful Western male characters PERIOD. I would take a submissive, weak pretty boy, but the West doesn't even have those>>739151985>(not counting indies)I can't think of any Western indies either
>>739149296xqc r6s pog
>>739149481What's the bet that those "black devs" were fat woman
Western culture is unironically full of Dobsons
>>739152070Wrong, tranny. Leon is unmistakably a manly man who happens to have a very appealing face. Why can't Westerners make male characters half as attractive as him?
>>739150002Sylus from Love and Deepspace
>>739152314Are you retarded? You think Love and Deespace is a Western game?
>>739149481I'll always laugh at the capitalized "black"s after the mind control kicked in
>>739152070You know there's a difference between a man being pretty and a good looking man right?
>>739152356That's right. Made right here in the good old U. S. of A.
>>739149296Maverick is handsome and there are some good looking waifus in the game. This cosplay looks weird on him. Reminds me of that weird albino from that one Adam Sandler movie.
>>739150002If you put an attractive pretty boy in a Western game, they'll insist that he's "Enby" for failing to conform to standard masculine stereotypes, oblivious of the fact that they are actively reinforcing those stereotypes by doing so.
>>739150002kris deltarune
>>739151520ESL. He wasn't asking for it. He was mocking you and your monkey females
>>739152070Shouldn't western devs be all over characters like this too? The pretty women with penises in games come from Japan too.
>>739152457Or they'll be made gay, which really highlights just how rare a game like Love and Deepspace is
>>739151840
>>739152473Lmao
>>739152473Funnily enough, this was the one exception I thought of too. But then I remembered that Kris is literally like 20 pixels and the perception of him being attractive is informed by a sea of fanart. And don't even get me started on the nonbinary bullshit. Kris is disqualified, but I would still fuck him
>>739152491yes I understand that both of you are retarded.
>>739152493When futas come to the west that's when you start having the penis cage shit introduced
>>739152646>When futas come to the westThankfully that'll never happen. Troons hate futas. One thing we can agree on
>>739150002AstarionAlso Zagreus if you ignore the fact that the art style makes everyone look more rugged
>>739152567No you didn't. Don't lie to me son
>>739149296realism hardon + westfags can't be pretty in reality = ugly fags 100%.
>>739152738Larian tried so hard to make Astarion gay only
>>739149353>but at least half of the western industry is comprised of themIt's because said Faggots are exclusively bottoms and they don't want to make any competition for themselves. It's the same reason modern games lack attractive woman
>>739150002Guybrush, depending on the game.
>>739152820What their realism actually is about is the idea that masculine aesthetics must dominate all else
Japan's canon trannies look more feminine than the west's strong female characters
>>739149481Apparently black women are super autistic over their hair because it's extremely difficult to manage which is why most of them give up and have "black hairstyles". Having straight hair is a full time job for them.
Twink Death
>>739149296prettyboys go against the zeitgeist, you have to be ugly and hairy
>>739152947I honestly thought black people willingly chose to have dogshit haircuts until I saw a bit about people actually researching how to properly do their hair in video games and anons commenting on it.
>>739152772yeah its a pretty retarded question>durr why is a girl trying to fit the beauty standards of the society shes in and not to mention its not uncommon to change your hair at all girls with strait hair curl their hair all the time hell, girls will wear wigs of hair similar to the one they already have
>>739149296Raiden was despised back in the day for being a twink and not macho like Snake.
>>739152992True
it brings up too many repressed feelings for them
>>739153445I'M STILL STANDINYEAH YEAH YEAH
>>739152992Hilarious how hard this backfired on them
>>739153445but nowadays fans love raidenit was just loud anti-japanese western reviewers who were negative about anything japanese at the time
>>739153445um… sex?
>>739150002AstarionWomen only bought BG3 to romance him
>>739153508this
>>739153445>makes fun of character by... making him as sexy as possibleWere people really that naive back then?
>>739149296because not everybody is a gay sissy like you, OP.
>>739153536I'm just waiting for the day where G is kicked out of the LGBT for being evil misogynistic m*les that like m*les
im gonna reinstall rainbow 6 siege, havent played since like year 4sam fischer and snake look like might be fine, i just hated how they went full esports direction, and ruined everything that was fun/cool
>>739153590Larian tried so hard to make him gay only, like how they tried to pretend Karlach was only for lesbians
>>739153647The point is they built a culture around only tolerating a dominant macho figure as their leader and look where that got them
>>739153445Well, /v/, does it?
>>739149481I prefer this one.
>>739153937lol they were fucking. Imagine getting cucked by Raiden
>>739153937yes raiden, it makes your butt look fat
>>739152473Say what you want about the Undertale/Deltarune fanbase, but the amount of pretty boy art of pretty much every male character in both games except Asgore (who gets hit with the bara paddle instead) proves that there's a sizable amount of western fans who want pretty boys in western media.
>>739150347It's so unfair. When is an RPG going to give guys a hot, evil, vampire wife?
>>739149296What's with that, I thought Westerners where pro trannies and stuff? Where are my real femboys!
>>739150002From what I remember a vast majority of western games have been either shoooty-shooty-bangbang FPSs, survival horror, and the occasional gritty/"realistic" 3rd person RPG and none of those genras really have a place for a traditional "pretty boy". At best we get Twunks, Otters, and Bears.The closest to a pretty boy I can think of is Adler and the one german guy from the recent COD games.If you count Blizzard there's Wuyang and Lifeweaver from Overwatch but those feel more like pandering to the Korean market than a traditional western prettyboy.
>>739154204I mean, Toby Fox's shit is just a riff on Earthbound and Touhou so of course its fans are bishonen-loving weebs. It's spiritually Japanese. Westerners can only make pretty men when they're actively being anti-Western and pro-Japanese
>>739154204Still loops into the same hierarchy where they're usually gay submissive masochists for ugly bastards. That's how they promote the same old values.
>>739154216wrong kind of trannies >>739152992
>>739154291Deltarune is about shaming and diminishing femininty. That applies to both the gay and lesbian art. The West will not include feminine characters unless they can be attacked and degraded in that manner.
>>739154240I think it's bullshit how we can't have pretty boys in a military setting. Who gives a FUCK about realism. But yeah, I do remember thinking Adler was surprisingly attractive in a masculine way. Like Robert Redford
>>739151156Watching an entire chatroom mistake him for a woman during some sponsored stream last year was what awakened me to the total lack of these characters in western media.>Manjaw squarehead nasolabial fold masculine women in every game>No femboysAsian people please save us
>>739152129Isn't David kind of androgynous, or maybe he's just young
>>739152129>Just look at ancient statues.Ok
>>739154094>>739154216ZAMN
>>739154579Is this that one femboy that an Emperor loved so much he demanded statues was built of his favorite male whore?
>>739154632No, you're thinking Antinous. The other guy is Dionysus
>>739154702Forgot pic
>>739153445the hateboner PSM had for raiden was something else
>>739154807Some things never change
>>739153445>>739153937>>739153995>>739154807God, why doesn't this sort of SOUL exist anymore? We're living in a fucking alien world now
Don't forget
>>739149296Say that his face you shit stirring chuddite moidling. Your mutt adjacent leaftoid consumerist schlock's relevance within the broad context Western game development is contingent on a social contract.
the western man fears good character design
>>739155007he has femoid wrinkles
>>739154992Right idea, wrong execution. Dante should be John Demonkiller, space marine.
>>739154216
>>739154992forget what?
>>739155136Yeah it's weird how they gave a man nasolabial folds. He still looks good from some angles/lighting though
>>739155265He's like 300 years old and was held captive. I'd expect hard living like that to leave a few wrinkles at least.
>>739155265he looks fine here in a realistic way but hes still not actually attractive
>>739153229>Strait
>>739154992so long gay cowboy
>>739154204The games played exclusively by faggots has fan art made by faggots, for faggots? Shocking.
>>739155091'Harly!
>>739153445You had twink characters back in the day. It was more that he was a bait n switch and people wanted to play as snake. People just wanted to abuse him and the twink angle was the most obvious one
>>739155459You wouldn't be in this thread if you didn't also like looking at faggots, let's be real
>>739153650I wouldn't bother
>>739155417its a water joke
>>739151234The vast majority of westoid normalfags are anything but grownup. Literally everything they like is just for social posturing and to save face (past shit like being a degenerate in public and more like actively shutting down benign things they like and should like as a normal adult because it will make random strangers and half-assed "friends" perceive them as lesser).It's essentially just catty highschool behavior performed by someone that's physically an adult but an adolescent mentally.>>739150827Pretty much. It's also why American and British art (A lot of Europeans like the French and Spaniards actively enjoy anime and at worst are indifferent at worst to cartoons and anime without putting real meaning to someone liking it or not) is so sterile, boring, culturally irrelevant and dead: it's an imitation of what people think adults should be enjoying, not what adults actually enjoy. Outside of indie artists and schizos, you won't see the 5 major English speaking countries embrace anything approaching actual art until the boomers start dying en masse (which is soon thank God).
>>739155550You might be autistic anon
>>739149296why can't japanese devs do handsome women? Rika was 5 years ago
Why do you guys complain so much about devs not pandering to you when every other game nowadays has a character creator where you can make whoever you want? People who worry about this stuff are insufferable
>>739155669character creators are still very restrictiveyou can't make a femboy in bg3
>>739155637i might be but I dont see what that has to do with anything
You'll forget about his face after you see his interior decorating.
>>739155710Of course not, cause you're autistic
>>739149296Pretty boys are for faggots and women. Both of them shouldn't be catered to if you want video games to be fun.
>>739155669Aside from the sims and maybe some other heavily modded games, which character creators let you make femboys?
>>739155669Here you go champ
>>739155663
>>739152992>women and men both are supposed to only be into butch muscle women>but women aren't allowed to be into femboys
>>739155723I feel bad they gave Raiden such a shitty fake girlfriend who's entire dialogue is woman moments. I get the idea was to copy Snake's mission and Snake had a cute girl on his codex to chat with too but Mei Ling was never antagonistic
>>739155530I like seeing faggots fight eachother, the left is an ouroboros.
>>739155904why lie to yourslelf?
Once a man expresses any feminine traits or looks, he would be designated as gay in western media. Irl femboys love girls more than men and vice versa.
>>739155782splatoon, that one game harvestella i think, animal crossing
>>739149296I fail to see how is that ugly
>>739155782Modded ck3
>>739155808Thanks for proving that the right is full of retards
>>739155669Character creators in western games are fucking awful, what the hell are you talking about?90% of the time they're just a complete afterthought with like 6 presets per category and retarded shit like vitiligo but completely missing basic shit, like fucking adjustable hair lengths.Why the fuck would you even type this? Every western character creator these days is absolute rancid dogshit outside of maybe Bethesda games, which are just regular dogshit unless you mod the fuck out of them.
>>739155782Pokemon ZA
>>739150002>There has literally not been a single actually attractive pretty boy in a Western-developed game ever.I know it's not that recent but still he counts. A lot of women still don't shut up about him.
>>739156615Women weren't supposed to like him
>>739156615I mean sort of, but he still has a heavy brow and a big chin and a masculine nosehe has an effeminate personality and looks like an aged twink, but raiden and a thousand other eastern characters are way prettier
>>739155782You can make pretty boys in VAM
>>739149296Maverick is hotter than Raiden. Raiden looks like a plastic doll.
>>739150002Prince of Persia (2008) is as close to Western "pretty" I can think of.
>>739156225>anime posterAnon, you just want to create anime characters to jerk off to. You have japanese gooner games for that, leave that shit out of normal games. >retarded shit like vitiligo but completely missing basic shit, like fucking adjustable hair lengthsUnironically having a vitiligo selector makes more from a business perspective since because it's literally just a texture someone could make in 3 minutes, not an entire additional model some artist has to waste resources on
>>739156771>Unironically having a vitiligo selector makes more from a business perspectiveAnd that is why western game character creators are shit.They don't care about expression, only about the bottom line.And it's why their industry is dying and why we celebrate every time a western studio gets shut down.Have some more anime to piss you off.
>>739152738Astarion looks like a crackhead without his feathery and gay hairdo.
Here's something scary: You could have vitilago right now and never know because you're already white
>>739152738yeah zagreus is a good example, thanatos is even moreso and you can fuck him so that's pretty cool
>>739156901it's true, I'm actually white but I have reverse vitiligo
>>739156949It's the opposite of what Michael Jackson had, lucky nigga
>>739154094He's got nothing on Snake's dumptruck
>>739151520No more heroes black girl is hot and has an afro.
>>739157334no more heroes is before you all decided to start using the same personality template

>>739155723
Jews hates beauty, in any sort of manifestation. And considering that the entire western emisphere is Jewish goy puppet nstion, well...
>>739150002>>739152193Western feminism is built around the idea that femininity is bad.>Feminists think femininity is bad>Misogynists think femininity is bad>Trannies think femininity just makes you a girlThere's no room for femboys in this mindset, so they don't make any.
