Ha well I just wanted to avoid the cluster of pointless discussions since it is only a outfit after all. I do remember ochid’s tit fatality being the reason she got big in the first place but whenever I see orchid fan art or even talks about her prior to this game’s announcement it was always in reference to “dat ass.”
Orchid was unique amongst other fighting game hoes cause she was legitimately curvy and not just top heavy with a flat ass. A rare fighting game specimen indeed…
i need to play some games with my srk peoples i still need a fight stick thou. orchid dlc needs more ASS in the costume more plz
Yeah it takes some time learning the animations for Glacius’ ice glaciers and such. You started to use some shadow linkers to mix things up which is good, but you’ll need to start using counter breakers so you can actually get to use your heavies. Once you land a counter breaker or two off your heavies that will back people off breaking your heavies and let you get more damage in again. Once you practice some frame traps with laser sword your offensive game should get stronger also.
I guess I could ask KLobb on Twitter (he did the voice for both KI1 and new Thunder). Not sure which native language exactly.
lol Orchid is a respectable secret agent, and her agency makes her wear a pleather swimsuit.
Things like that are why I don’t get into the story behind fighters. There’s a serious suspension of believe just to satisfy the hormonal cravings of teenagers and hentai enthusiasts. Even in the context that it’s not made to be taken seriously, that’s a tough pill to swallow.
Obviously not everyone that likes that type of thing aren’t teenagers and hentai lovers. There is also the general population of under-sexed married males to consider, and butch lesbians. (I’m just kidding around, but I still don’t see what the big deal is)
It’s sad that half the posts in the thread since Orchid’s reveal have been arguing with Rik/SuperTroll over why her design is or isn’t sexy enough. Such a waste of time and space.
Since on topic of ass recently can anyone explain to me why Sadira has scars(?) on her right asscheek?
Butch dykes only like manly women its a scientific fact!
Anyways orchid’s outfit is pretty much like 99% of the outfit for women in comics and anime. Remember the ghost in the shell series and how it was suppose to be very serious and"realistic"yet the lead character’s outfit was essentially a 1 piece bathing suit with full hip and ass display. I probably wouldn’t be so mad at the outfit censorship if I didnt get this sickening feeling it was done to appease the katoku crowd and insecure girl gamers.
Where did you think the webs came from?
May as well migrate from the DHG forum for a bit and see what’s going on here.
So like yeah, hi! ^u^
So it makes sense to alienate that group of people just for the sake of showing more ass? From a business perspective, it probably doesn’t. Honestly, if someone says they aren’t buying the game because Orchid isn’t showing enough ass, they are being far more petty and ridiculous than people who refuse to buy the game based on a moral agenda and the popular anti-mysygony movement. Orchid is still sexualized, it’s just been toned down compared to what it used to be. It’s not like she’s wearing pjs and a turtle neck. I don’t see why some middle ground can’t be satisfactory for both sides of the argument.
lol. That match was hilarious
You are aware that the kotaku crowd are westward baptist church level idiots right…and honestly if some insecure girl gamers are going to be alienated by a fictional female character then perhaps they shouldn’t be allowed to play video game to begin with.
Do you see the guys on this thread freaking out over jago and his shirtless"romance novel"hard body?
If we’re gonna tone down the T&A so some fat cunts can feel better about themselves then DH can go eat a dick.
I just assumed Kotaku was just another white-knight anti-mysygony site.
Our culture is one that looks past the hurdles of men an dissects the ails of women. It’s a byproduct of our modern “enlightened” age, which is unfortunate, but something that should blow over eventually.
Whatever the case, MS is a company that exists to make money from consumers. Your qualms are with the society that puts MS in the position to choose between one group or another.
And your whole argument about girl gamers with low self-esteem falls flat when you take into account that Orchid is currently reflecting a very high-standard of beauty with her rock-hard body and large tits. She even has the ass that many girls tend to wish they had. She’s obviously not designed to cater to insecure females. She actually looks more like she was designed to reflect the secret agent MMA fighter she is. If she’s touted as being an elite bad-ass, but she looks like she just walked out of a strip club, then that’s definitely pandering to a specific crowd.
All things considered, I think DH did a great job on her design. They’ve tried to take a one-dimensional sex-symbol character and make her into something people can actually take seriously as more than just eye-candy. Maybe that wasn’t their intention, maybe they just tried to make her look different from Sadira. Whatever the case, I have no problem with her current design, and I’m part of a different group of people, the group that doesn’t give a shit if the females in video games are sex objects.
They are the Fox News of gaming news outlets with occasional save a hoe tactics.
NRS didn’t have this issue with their female characters and arguably someone like Mai is far worse in this regard yet her inclusion in KOF13 wasn’t the reason it failed to connect with the NA market.
Have you seen jago’s classic look?
What part of his old outfit even fit the description of his story…dude was a metro J-pop star.
I’m ok with her new look although she does look like Lara crofts long lost sister…I call her B.croft.
Another quick match from yesterday’s session.
@DevilJin
Just watched your match vs Rico (sorry I’m late). Random advice from a thunder player:
-Samamish is only invul above the waist, use low pokes in oki to nullify that option for free.
-EX Shatter punishes an instinct dash from Thunder on reaction every time, and can make its less free when Thunder acitvates.
Cool I’ll have to remember that. EX shatter does like no damage though so it’s only a slight deterrent at best when he’s in instinct. Outside of instinct it beats him up pretty good though because it just further impedes his slow movement game. More of why I lost I think was just due to small mistakes with combo breaking and combo optimization, but I should have it down soon,
Well, it knocks him down and out and burns the instinct timer. And it will get him to stop dashing and try to get in with more traditional means.
Word.
Oh and cdjr vs. shinkuhadoken (guy who got 2nd place to j.wong at MS tourney) Sadira mirror coming up on nycfab’s channel soon.
Yea, I told you that EX Shatter stops Thunder hard. Espeially keeps him away.
