Mokinokaro posted:Well, I meant more if they want to have sections where you lose the armor powerups you could use something styled closer to that rather than the fanservice suit. It makes far more sense for Samus to be wearing something like that (sans helmet when in the armor) underneath than the zero suit. i think what you are trying to want is something like her armor in fusion. which she was more mobile in then the normal power armor.

Ultimately it doesn't matter. Metroid is going the way of Castlevania. Their parent companies just don't give a poo poo about it any more. In the case of Metroid, I wouldn't even trust it in the hands of Sakamoto who has gotten more insane with age.

It makes Samus go from "badass bounty hunter with the most badass gear around" to "Samus is literally a magical girl" which ruins so much of her character.

Mokinokaro posted:The big exception I was really discussing was stuff like bomb blast suits (and I suppose bear/dog armor as they follow similar principles) that are quite cumbersome and harder to move in because they're designed around taking a heavy impact over fast movement. They're basically an extreme version of full-body hockey goalie pads. I love Bear Suit Man. Shine on, you crazy fucker.

I also mentioned things like feminist debate over Twilight and 50 Shades of Grey but sure single out a section of a sentence that was one part about the broadness of a political and cultural philosophy the debates contained with in because the idea that someone can loving disagree with you is loving mindboggling. Please actually find context from multiple sex positive feminists that slut shaming and expression of female sexuality is only expressed through real people and not consummation of media, but I will quote everyone from Naomi Wolf to bloggers on the internet.

While I don't disagree about the Zero Suit having some issues, I always found myself slightly more irked at how they settled on a perfectly nice, realistic look for Samus in Prime 1 and then went full blown anime waifu in everything afterwards.

IronicDongz posted:There is no logic behind it besides "make her look sexy". So? It doesn't not overemphasize her sexuality or reduce the action her's doing solely, primarily, mostly, or even significantly for fanservice. Hell the fact when it was revealed the suit furthered the idea that the player was "naked" in the sense they didn't have their upgrades or special weapons, with her wearing a leotard not bulky safe/powerful looking armor. We are going to argue around circles here because you seem to think any minunate level of this is bad, while quite frankly I don't in the slightest.

I think the zero suit is kind of dumb but I don't think it's some horrible abomination. Unnecessary really but I see nothing wrong with making appealing characters.

Are you legitimately this clueless? Is a pornographic magazine inherently nonsexual because print is incapable of panning an image for emphasis? And "It follows an internal logic" is never ever a justification for anything, because you can dream up literally any in-universe justification for anything. EDIT: I'm just gonna stop at this point, because like I already said, you're either a moron or a troll, so nothing good can come of this.

Okay, I'm confused now. Is the thread coming down in favor of the zero suit or against it? Because I'm still not sure if the guy responding to me being annoyed that more people focused on Samus's tits than her personality was arguing against me or supporting me. Personally I've really got nothing against the Zero suit and just think its kinda dumb, my issue was more with how the reception of samus by the gaming media has everything to do with "dude she's hot" and not "she's a stone cold bounty hunter".

IronicDongz posted:I think most people minus NutritiousSnack in here think it's kinda dumb as well, probably not as strongly as me? There's definitely an element of truth to Samus often getting talked about more as "hot woman" than "badass" but I think the reasons why that happens are pretty obvious(ZSS+gamers just gravitating towards that reaction whenever they see a woman) It's just a case of the enthusiast press catering (pandering?) to the male demographic. Most of the people who played those games were male so they throw up these dumb top 10 lists. It's sleazy, sure, but they're doing things that they think will appeal to their audience and get their site traffic. Times are changing and stuff that like isn't generally looked upon favorably but you can hardly blame male writers pandering to a male demographic and even less so blame the developers for how people discuss their work.
