Ugly females

[Master_Skywalker]

Is there a reason why females are so unattractive in this game? Maybe it's the radioactivity of space or something. Is it part of the game's lore or something?

Or is it just Bethesda's engine? Anyway, females looked much better in Skyrim.

i think this game has still too good looking people if you compare to real world.
i have seen lot of good looking women in this game, they are not any Barbies or porn stars but good looking ordinary people type.

This. xD I mean I don't remember ever seeing good looking female models in a bethesda game all of that are from mods.

There is ALL UGLY, damn old game engine

Nothing has changed, it's not "current year" issues - Bethesda just don't go in for it historically.

Like I said this is no bad thing: if your RPG dev prefers not to lace the game with sex appeal and is chill about it, you can always mod it in later. Whereas if your RPG dev is cringe and sex-mad and intertwines it with the story and characters, that is a tougher thing to fix.

This is one of the ugliest games and character models i seen in any game...
its ♥♥♥♥♥♥ sad... cause most woke devs are 300 pounds with purple hair and 200 piecings through their fugly face...they feel everyone should be as ugly looking as them and all should equaly suffer

welcome to woke fascist agenda...

Sounds like leftoids to me

That's just Bethesda for ya, wait for the modders to work their magic.

I'm holding off on playing this game for another year or so as i want to mod the crap out of it, charcters, weapons armor etc, i want my first playthrough to be good.

Nah.. just look at this -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffRyPyLcgy8&ab_channel=SkyrimWorld

All vanilla. Also, women looked normal in Skyrim. They looked weird in Oblivion. But that went for everyone.

This game though is intentionally made so that most women are ugly as hell. But what you can expect after the company gets bought by Microsoft and you have EDI quotas to abide by, otherwise your gods will not get that saucy BlackRock munney.

Characters do look "rough" in Skyrim as well (in any modern Bethesda games) it is an engine issue.. that being said, there is a big difference on these two comes.. look below (no mods on Skyrim, just SE)

Another huge difference on the games are that one game is gory and the other one is teen friendly.

Most likely.

One thing people don´t account for is engine limitations and such as well.. It was the same story in The Outer Worlds. People called the females ugly.... infact their biggest argument was that they look liked lesbians and such.. (weird argument)

The fact is for both games, that the engine limits them, a long with the artistical choices. Ie. in this game nobody have long hair (no matter the sex) to avoid clipping issues, in TOW a few select special crafted ones had long hair, the rest was short haired.

Due to our ideals and biased from the real world, some might see those "more rough edged" and "short haired" females as the prototype of a "lesbian" or even just "ugly" because their ideals are "long haired beauty with make up on...

If you look here.
This is how they looked like in TOW

As you might see, not that fair apart from Starfield ones when it comes to hair, but actually Starfield and TOS had two different approaches, in TOS characters look much more rough and edgy, in Starfield most characters (not all, some of the random npcs look like this as well) look round and soft.. This means that one gets the "tough female with short hair vibe or in Starfield, soft short haired girl.. (males look notorious soft in their facial expression due to this artistic approach)

The user in the other thread showcased this. This is some of the females that worked on TOS) Now I actually think this is a rather great screenshot that showcase regular realistic takes on the variety of humans (in this case females) I am sure people can find atleast one they would be attracted to as well.

Sadly it was used as an example of why characters where short haired... but it has nothing to do with the people working on the games... it really just is engine limitations.. people need to understand, that obviously Bethesda would not make every girl look like some anime girl... (if you want that, there is most likely already a mod that does just that) Bethesda wanted a realistic take on things..

Weird or not the screenshots attached show a huge lack of diversity.

I think people don't mind if there are ugly characters, the problem is that there are ONLY ugly characters in the game. And yes their look goes very well hand in hand with what you see with a lot of outspoken lesbians out there. You can like it or not. But if youre making a game that is for a wide audience maybe more diverse looks on the characters would be good?

Something for everyone instead of all for the small minority?

When it comes to the limitations of the engine, you need to look no further than the modding scene to see that you can have very good faces with the TES engine.

At the end of the day all those faces are ... are just polygons. You can arrange them however you want.

its a bit creepy you want digital women to be attracted too.
