There is nothing more highly scrutinized in this community than the look of a female fighting game character. Every inch of her will be analyzed in great detail, and if some guy sitting at home on the couch isn’t happy with some particular detail he will rage.
“How dare they make her butt like this? How dare her waist be like this? Omg I don’t like her hair? Wtf were they thinking with her makeup? NRS can’t be serious with her ankles wtf not sexy enough”.
People will break out diagrams, measurements, mathematical equations, and plenty of pictures of ‘token’ women from movies and comic books. They will point out that all women look like
this and can only look like
this and dress like
this. Gotta be showing
this or it’s not womanly.
At the end of the 30-page thread about the female character’s looks, someone will declare that they are done with the franchise because her (insert whatever here) isn’t big enough and her (insert something here) isn’t showing enough and that makes it impossible for them to enjoy the game. Meanwhile Rain is covered head to toe with a generic build but looks cool/fine.
