They all look like concept art from the 80’s. FOH
If you were to take Elena’s design and genderbend it, you’d just get Urien - and vice versa.
What does the artist look like? Lol
Fuck this, and fuck pussies and their “triggers” that make shit like this a thing.
That’s why it’s complete garbage.
That’s the common “cop out” argument. Even though it’s not true.

Male bodies are not sacred. You can show as much of a man’s body as you want, right up to a fucking leaf over his crotch, and nobody gives a shit. It’s got jack shit with the reasoning for the man being dressed down, whether it’s a power fantasy (how lack of clothes equates to fantasies of power are beyond my understanding, personally I’m wearing a trenchcoat in my shower power fantasies but whatever) or whatever other retarded ass logic you can pull out of your ass to qualify and justify your hypocrisy.
Female bodies are sacred. It must be protected and shielded from peasant eyes.
Would’ve been too much to ask them to cover up a character like Sheeva.
Nice to see they gave all those characters her face instead.
if it were an experienced designer with knowledge about anatomy, I’d have respected the effort even if I disagreed. But this? Waste of time.
Fucking ugly. It’s like she tried to turn them all into characters from Daria and failed.
I can do her one better! Not only are these re-designs even more SJW-friendly, but they’re not nearly as hideous, either.
Her designs for Cammy and Morrigan aren’t too bad. Poison’s is nice for a sensible, street clothes type outfit, but this is Poison we’re talking about. She’s a wrestling manager; sensible really isn’t part of who she is.
There’s some decent ideas here, too bad the central one just seems to be “these ladies need to be flatter and cover up more regardless of backstory and characterization”.
Yes they are.
“Durr let’s give a succubus, a mythological beautiful lady-demon WHOSE ENTIRE PURPOSE IS TO SEDUCE MEN AND STEAL THEIR SOULS, a really conservative and unsexy regal outfit that covers up everything.”
These designs suck dog shit, the person who made these should be tied to a chair and have electrodes attached to their genitals.
That would be true had Capcom and other devs had not created characters like B.B.Hood, Makoto, Ibuki, Chun-Li, Hsein-Ko, Jill Valentine, Ruby Heart, Vanessa, King, Shina etc. So kill that noise. If one was to compare the amount of overtly sexualised female characters in fighters to more modest ones it wouldn’t even be close. The sexualised ones just get the most attention. And Sailor Moon’s character designs begin good and appealing to women? The fuck?! Like could those skirts get any shorter? And of course the transformation sequences which borderlines softcore porn.
Female fighting game characters do not cater to women because the fighting game community, even as it pertains to the casual market, is unquestioningly dominated by men.
The people complaining about it are basically saying “oh my god, I’m not being catered to by games that are geared towards a demographic I don’t belong to!!! I HAVE TO CHANGE THIS!!”
It only takes a pair of eyes to complain about breasts and skin color. It takes actual expertise to criticize mechanics, level design etc.
This is why the journalists will never do the latter. They don’t know about games more than you and me. Gamers as a whole should start ignoring any critic who is not a genre expert.
What is even more hilarious than contemporary feminism that is the reaction a lot of men have against it.
Curiously, the transformation sequences were not in the original manga written by Naoko Takeuchi, they were entirely created by the animation studio in order to draw male audience.
From the article, the only redesign I see viable is the one for Elena, the others do ridiculously taboo the female body and ruin the style of the character, make them look generic.
That I-no is killin’ me
