Ok my first serious and only criticism....the wonderbra effect.

[EntityofDesire]

I'm not sure if this is truly a criticism or not (lol), but I can't help but notice all the female character model bust lines are aiming "up" rather then naturally hanging on their body.

As if all the women in this game are wearing wonderbras (hence wonderbra effect) in this game.

Seriously not trying to be weird or trying to start a mature conversation but simply pointing out a slight criticism of the female character models being a little too...perky, across the board from a artistic/designers point of view.

Or AM I the only person that noticed this lol...

[jabbywocks]

Oh, I've definitely noticed this. It makes me uncomfortable out of empathy. Larger boobs is fine, but they shouldn't look like they are trying to fly away from the women's chests.

[Dimensional Traveler]

Phyllis is definitely wearing a pushup something along with that slit to the waist skirt, stockings and high heels!

[Wanderer Bobbi]

I agree ~~ Nora's ready for take off. The jumping up & down for a gift they like/ love is rather... something...

ROFL I just actually gave Phyllis a gift and she jumped up and down. That was a sight!

Those bounce physics though are very typical though for games now, their meant to add realism XD

Maybe for men smmfh

I try to tap Ms. Phyllis on the shoulder (unfortunating our arms don't work ~~ only in a cutscreen) to inform her, I have not seen any paparazzi today, yesterday & it appears they may not come. I think you've practiced your poses & they're most perfect in everyway. You can stop now.
Just continue to do the nursing profession proud ~~ not.

The sad part is they aren't realistic; Boobs don't bounce like that or defy gravity like that. Most of the female characters in this game are obviously designed for the "male gaze" and not to look normal.

I was referring to the industry standard for breast bounce physics although I would argue your wrong about how breasts bounce or move on the human body.

Unless your wearing a sports bra even a b cup will bounce if a girl jumps up and down like the girls do when they receive gifts in this game. So I don't find that unrealistic at all, especially for larger breasts. I'd think breasts that DON'T move would be more unrealistic and unnatural unless that character/person is flat chested.

edit:

Now thats not to say the industry hasn't gone crazy at times with breasts physics like older Dead or Alive games where if a girl jumped her boob bounced off her face...because thats just...silly lol...

I'm not saying they wouldn't bounce at all, just not "like that", in that I-Just-Stuffed-Water-Balloons-In-My-Bra kind of way. Boobs bounce, just like any other sack of flesh and tissue on a human being; Gravity and physics are involved and too much bouncing will be painful. If your breasts fly up and slap you in the eye, it's time to get a new bra.

"Male gaze"

Ok "feminist"

[Jakuzi]

everyone has twig bodies and massive anime eyes

but I'll agree, Nora looks really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ unnatural and weird

[mskitty]

And big heads on the twig bodies.

[EntityofDesire]

Honestly this was less a comment about the art design overall and more a critique of bad modelling I felt for the chest of females. I think the size and movement are fine, but I've literally never seen a game make character boobs look like they are about to launch up into space before lol.

[Dragorn421]

Yeah it striked me at first. Especially Nora.
I guess it was done unconsciously on the designers' part, because the game feels like (from some characters lines) it's been made by people aware of many IRL issues

[OpusDee]

I'm far more bothered by some of the characters having eyes so far apart that they look like they have Down Syndrome, than I am by gravity defying boobs. But eh, whatever.
