Why does DEI = ugly

[Dehra]

It's like they have to worship ugly people? If they themselves are ugly, making a character ugly doesn't change that. I just don't understand

Not every female game character needs to look like an anime chick, or a drop dead gorgeous super model that you can fap to. It would be too ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boring and cliche if every female character looked "not ugly" all the time. Women come in all shapes and sizes. I would care more about how the female character is written rather than how she looked. She could be ugly as ♥♥♥♥ and still be a really well written character.

Some women have broader shoulders, some have wider chins, hell, some even have a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Adams apple. So ♥♥♥♥ off with your dumb question, and go elsewhere

Just most if not all women from AAA games in the past few years. Stellar Blade controversy and progressives attempt to censor the game excluded of course.

She was just anime chick who happened to exist in real life but never acknowledge not only is the model real, she is in her late 30s. I know that hurts the feels of thirsty male feminists and the women of 5 American cities but they don't drive game sales so why make a game or 10% and that 10% is generous since is only ever been 7% in the highest census data?

Save Democracy!

Wait that means represent the desires of the 93% majority. Guess not then huh, falsehoods since 2010 are so common-place from that 7% I don't fault you for being conned.

Basically its just one step of many towards the destruction of society itself.

Interesting how sure you are that you know the thinking behind every game studio that's attempting to adopt more inclusive design practices.

I'd recommend that you maybe stop listening to angry balding white men on YouTube whose only interest is monetizing your rage. Also, I promise transgender people don't want to hurt you. There are still plenty of games out there starring cis white men (like Silent Hill 2).

I say the same to you in regards to Tampon Tim. Stop letting him rile you up with all his falsehoods.

Just because his partner can't speak dosn't make his rage bait true!

Stop calling ordinary looking people ugly.

Because people who traffic in DEI also tend to be ugly themselves, and of course they MUST be able to "see themselves" on screen too. The logic tracks.

And you plan to show your real face when? Don't be throwing around accusations of ugliness if you're not willing to have your own looks judged by strangers as well. Lead by example champ.

Am I trying to take your money like these DEI activists are? No I am not.

Also, it's not an accusation. These DEI activists ARE ugly people--both inside and out.

Ok but its really just art appreciation, polygon characters were created by artists.

Angela is literally the voice actress face. You can like it or not but the amount of ragebait now is absurd.

Don't worry...they'll move on to another game with similar world-pressing "issues", soon enough :D

[tough baby seal]

it's understandable why the ugly want to be represented in games, it's just not fair for them, see how angry and frustrated Eddie is in this game

It's not about that for them. It's about taking something other people enjoy, and have enjoyed for years, and destroying it. Video games have always sold the best due to attractive characters on screen, ever since it was possible. "But why?" you may ask. Well, it's because beauty sells. What's the first thing you see for a video game? The characters. The artwork of the characters. The design of the characters.

As we have progressed through this "ugly-fication" of characters, we've seen, naturally, a drastic drop in sales for these kinds of games. Why? Well, the characters are simply... ugly. Yes, it is that simple. Of course, then come in the insults from these types of people. "You're a shallow person with unrealistic expectations of women/men.". And to those people I simply say "Absolutely. When it comes to games, yes. I agree, wholeheartedly." Not because I don't want "realistic" characters in a game. There are plenty of real life beautiful people in the world. What I don't want are disgusting, troglodyte, monsters resembling people in video games.

A lot of people are now going to counter with "Well, a lot of these people are scanned into the game and resemble what they actually look like.". And to those people I say... Are you suuuuure about that? Because from what I've seen, and I can give examples if need be, there have been absolutely gorgeous men and women who were intentionally "ugly-fied" to fit a specific agenda.

All in all, I'll end with this. These people don't care about you, or me, or any other "gamer". In fact, they hate you, and me, and every other "gamer". We are disgusting to them. So why give them our money? Well, I for one wont be. And haven't. And never will. Thank you for reading my rant on stupid stuff. I appreciate it.

Uglyfication happens. But it didn't happen in this game, so why are we talking about it?

I gotta say though, the notion that games don't sell because of ugly characters is highly doubtful. The vast majority of people do not need pretty characters to enjoy a game. Just like an excellent TV show like Breaking Bad didn't need any super hot babes either. There is humongous amounts of "material" out there to scratch that itch.

It's also very transparently always the female characters that get bashed.

Eddie is actually cute for a fat person. If only he wasn't so fat.

[Star Rain]

its not real people the actors are just used as a base for the polygon artists to work from.
