Anglea is not fat
This is actually just Blooper team having no clue about conveying mental illness in a subtle way.

Is the character depressed? Then they've got to have a sad face and cry.
Angela is a CSA survivor. Eating disorders and insomnia are two symptoms associated with CSA. Angela in the original game does show symptoms of both.

While the huge dark circles and aged appearance are clear signs of her insomnia, she also had more subtle signs of bulimia.

If you look closely at the character model, you could interpret her cheeks as being swollen, but the back of the hands have blemishes caused by self induced vomiting. If you compare the skin on her hands to the other characters, it is very apparent. The game never draws attention to this, and it's really easy to miss.

As seen in this image.

So as previously noted, cheek swelling is another symptom. When someone with bulimia induces vomiting, it causes the parotid salivary glads to swell.

Look familiar?


So this is Blooper trying to make it really, really obvious Angelia has an eating disorder. Ignoring all the artistic subtly of the original game.

the one you clearly have an obsession with?
Seems like you're the on who's obsessed to the point you can't form a coherent argument.
Angela clearly has Russel signs, poor skin and bad hair, and the best thing you can come up with, is rope burns? Keep coping.

"Giraffe neck" seems pretty rude, as a beautiful person myself. Take that concept art and squeeze the aspect ratio slightly and there you have it. There's not a comparison at all to the new one.

The OG models actually all suffer from long neck syndrome. Tho to be fair the remake is suffering from large head syndrome. Like take a decent look at Maria in the remake. Or here lemme just link a side by side comparison of an edit someone did.

And Ultraman has a fin on his head. What syndrome is that since we are labeling everything and attempting to uglify the original source material to promote this trash.

He got that fish head syndrome for real for real Mr. Floridian.

If you cant defend something new without having to try and convince someone the old thing wasnt that good the new thing probably sucks.

Your only angle seems to be saying "So what if she looks bad the old game looked bad too"

You're admitting it

Yeah, that's become the craziest part of some of these takes, implying "it *needs* fixing!", "this is *better*", and now finally they come out and straight up say it, "wasnt that good anyway". So we have people who don't even have an appreciation for the source and whether they know it or not they are in fact shid-talking SH2.

Well Angela doesn't need a radar for her balls or food, clearly, sadly :(

This isn't a defence of anything, it's a critique of Blooper, social justicetards and gamer gatertards.
