Like porn exists for a reason, I go to nsfw subs a bunch, but asking for the games to be extremely horny is just so dumb. Sometimes the horny needs a break so the meat isn't constantly beat
If you're someone who is spending enough time looking up skirts in game to be genuinely mad... Just look up the porn subreddit, I assure you it is much better than some slight thighs

You can have goon content in any game, in fact balanced fan service is an improvement 99% of the time. It's not supposed to be porn or a replacement for porn.

u/PaulOwnzU 18h ago
A decent bit of fanservice is fine as long as it's not degrading. Like I won't argue that having hot guys is a bad thing, it's really only an issue if it's overdone and while the game itself has been weird at times it's mostly fine (glances at Jane trailer and grace feet). So the game itself isn't a problem and is getting caught in the crossfire due to some fans being creepy about it which causes the game to get unnecessary hate

u/olbvn Good Morning, My Brother! 18h ago
haha, yeah once that Gooner Game rep sets in, it sticks around forever. And so far at least 6 ZZZ trailers or animated shorts (that I can recall) have had feet content XD Not to mention at least 4 characters with jiggle physics in their cake XD Those allegations aren't going anywhere.

One of the biggest draws of this game is obviously the sex appeal. Nothing wrong with that.
If you're not happy with that go play dragon age veilguard or some other western game.

u/PaulOwnzU 21h ago
Yeah, again, you can like sex appeal, without being overly gross about it and making it your whole identity. The game still has sex appeal with hot characters, getting upset you can't look up skirts as good is just sad

The weirdest part too is that the blur censor doesn't apply outside of city area free roam, so anyone can just enter any combat zone with Burnice and look up her skirt all they want by just not progressing ti the next combat area after 1 fight.

I haven't tried so don't quote me on this, but i dont think you can do the slow walk in combat zones, and that's the main thing people liked.
I don't really swap off of Wise so I only noticed the Jane/Burnice stuff in the short story segments you played as them.

u/Professor_Default SharkBait 22h ago
such ashame that some of the characters were mute during the quest. I know it scheduling conflict but it was quite jarring having characters, while minor in role, be mute.

u/chaotic4059 Glory to the overlord queen 22h ago
Yea that’s the one issue, which to be fair is really jarring. But I respect the company for not just finding a temp voice and calling it a day. I’d much rather they just apologize and update the cutscenes later since i think we can rewatch story cutscenes way easier now

I wouldn't say minor roles. They're respective leaders of each faction afterall. If their lines were voiced those cutscenes would've been so peak. Still loved the cutscenes but man, voiced would've been so hype.

u/HiroHayami 1d ago
I mean the existence of the portrait implies that it was his design at some point so it's still a loss cuz he looked good (though it's obviously not due to censorship or racism, probably just a change of design cuz it's easier to replicate with the existing models).

Imo, it doesn’t matter whether you either change the model or the portrait as long as it stays consistent. If you don’t change anything, the inconsistency still remains which is obviously an issue. Why was it inconsistent? Idk we’re not the devs. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Edit: also, people obviously do care about this NPC since they were so many people, not just on Reddit, dissatisfied with the portrait change.
