Skullgirls GD - It's Showtime on PSN! XBLA 4-11!

Ain’t it fun reading stupid comments from idiots with a false, skewered sense of chivalry trying to tear you apart for ‘objectifying women’?

That’s the thing. You don’t. #PossiblyKappa

Machinima will always be the reigning champion of shitty comments, I’m afraid:

just

pure art.

Valentine.

Boy shorts.

:3

“I’m still wicked-bad!”
"Prove it ass-butt!"
Oh old Simpsons… how I miss the quality of your show.

Hey, if a game makes one throw their stick, then you know they did something right.

From Giant Bomb:

I should think that the very existence of a Story Mode in this game was sufficient to prove that none of these girls are cardboard cutouts or shallow pin-ups; I don’t know why this guy can’t see it. I guess the mere act of drawing breasts on a character automatically disqualifies her from being considered as a character per se: nope, this can’t possibly be a three-dimensional character with an independent mind and valid motivations, look at the size of her goddamn chest – she’s just some piggish art director’s jackoff fantasy and will never be anything more, no matter how well written she is.

It seems the Scarlet Letter is no longer A for adultery, but PI for political incorrectness. If these people got their way, half the population of DeviantArt would be dragged into the street and branded across the forehead with the words SHUN AND DESPISE ME, FOR I HAVE DRAWN TITTIES.

Objectification this, sexism that, artstyle whatever bla bla bla. P: I’ve stopped caring what people say about that coz the more I look at Skullgirls, the less I see it. Boobs =/= Sexism. Haters, man. That’s about all I gotta say on the subject before I drop it like it’s hot

('Sides, the best character has all the sexual appeal of a spaghetti noodle, aaawww yeaaahh. I’ve been screencapping all the hilariously fuck-ugly pauses I get of Peacock, I’ll have to compile 'em here…)

I want someone to explain to me what is objectively wrong with drawing tits.

Tits are good, your survival depends on them (literally)

What are you talking about, Cerebella makes my dick ROCK HARD!

On, the other hand, objectifying video game girls are bad, I’m glad Mike Z is helping open some kind of dialogue because DOA just wasn’t cutting it. (Fucking Itagki)

I can’t comprehend why sex-related stuff is prohibited more severe then fucking violence? You can like look in your own pants and see some genitalia but God saves you if your character is doing that >> What’s wrong with people nowadays? It’s perfectly acceptable for MK to split characters at halves but not you dare to show dem nipples! It’s stupid! You can’t have sex in-game but it’s okay to murder people and tear off their limbs. This kind of morality is puzzling me to no extent >>

Seriously, it’s not worth trying to understand their logic, you’ll only be driving yourself mad. Haters gonna hate as they say, and the guy is obviously just trying to find anything wrong with it, and he can’t find any gameplay reasons why he shouldn’t like the game so he sticks with what he believes is an easy thing to talk and argue about that will get people on the other side of the argument mad. Just don’t bother trying to reason with them. Just ignore it.

There’s no such thing as sexism.

There’s no such thing as haters.

Everything is wonderful. Wonderful.

This words so fit your avatar…

Beeeeeee happy!.. ^____________________^

So…ignoring my opinion of most fan art, that Peacock picture is gorgeous. I would hang a print if it were a physical thing.

In other news, I’m not opening any dialogue about sexism one way or the other. Things I draw are so terrible you can’t tell what gender they may be.

Hey. Hey. Dat white lady. She have those plants coming from her back. Is it her doing or was she just pictured that way?.. O_o

angry rant on why le haters are hypocrites

[details=Spoiler]Wuuhuhuu Well if I should be completely frank, what really bothers me is that the haters are barking up the wrong tree and they seriously cannot see it. Whereas other games have females who really are nothing but eye candy or useless baggage to be swept away by dashing men, Skullgirls’ characters have tons of personality.

They’re strong, they aren’t the types who instantly become useless the moment the guys step onto the playing field. Their motivations are varied and they don’t revolve around men (with the exception of Cerebella, but even in her case it’s less of an “I am trying to please a man” as “I want recognition from my parental figure”). They aren’t submissive objects.

That’s what grinds my gears. What’s really sexist are the haters themselves-- assuming that just because a woman is beautiful, sexy, shows off her assets means that any of her achievements or her personality are rendered moot. Yes, it is possible to have your cheesecake and eat it too, where eating is recognizing that these characters are more than fanservice via allll of the other god damn stuff they do. They’re supposed to be over-the-top, this is a cartoony game after all. The fact that they can’t see the sexism they themselves are displaying is so frustrating > . < Hypocrisy at its finest.[/details]

On the next episode of “LK makes a tl;dr post”: Smear Frames are a Thing of Beauty

If you look to the right, the other figure has the same noodle like plants behind her as well… but regardless, there is ANCIENT concept art of Parasoul’s super mode and it was plant based with what looked like a plant stalk coming out of the eye behind her hair. (This was back when the game was going to have super modes, which it doesn’t now, so I swear to God if someone asks about super modes I will find you, I will hunt you down, and I will tear off your fingers one by one. It’s hard enough keeping my sanity seeing the same question asked on the facebook page every day over and over and over rant rant rant)

It’s not like they want to be less sexist. They just saying “Yo, this game sucks, so devs draw some tits to sell it lol”. All sexist stuff is actually quite irrelevant >_>

How can it be?! There is something besides “releasedate releasedate releasedate releasedate releasedate releasedate releasedate releasedate releasedate releasedate releasedate” shit on the FB? o_O
You must be kidding…

No it’s : Release date? Release date? Release date? PS Vita? 3DS? PC? Cross-platform multiplayer? Release date? Release date? PC? PC? Release date? Cross platform multiplayer?

I try to answer as many as I can so Peter doesn’t kill himself.

Reading that Maximillian is interested in doing SG when it comes out soothe my rage from all the misinformed posts on Giantbomb.
