Here's an idea. Just don't put her in Bikini's and fanservice outfits and you won't have to worry about whether or not you're a pedophile. There is nothing forcing you to do this, and is easily avoidable.

Downloaded these with flashgot, not going to re-upload them elsewhere so here's the site I got them from. Edit: That didn't work at all http://music.163.com/#/djradio?id=1060004 Songs 16 to 21 on the playlist are new. 16: Oblivia (day) 17: Caves 18: Primordia (night) 19: Noctilum (day, not new but different recording) 20: Manon Ship (night) 21: Sylvalum / Continent of White Ash (day) Dastardly fucked around with this message at 15:04 on May 1, 2015 |

Imagine scooping yourself a delicious dish of ice cream, but you have to be careful because there's a turd in the ice cream tub. The turd is Literal Pedophilia. You're really blowing this out of proportion it's impossible to actually have an anime character look 13 because anime character body proportions are not realistically human. Like you can't even tell she's 13 in any sort of character line-up or hell compare it to other series. You have to be verbally told she's 13 because other than that there's really no other indicator that she's 13. Like hell she could pass for the same age as Fiona. All animes look the same. Like for reference this is what a fully grown adult anime looks like

I mean, if the developers created the character and made her 13 year old, then she's 13 years old. Y'know? If NOA/NOE force the localisation team to change the number to '18' then it doesn't make it any less creepy to people aware of that fact, because we'll know. We'll know.

But if that's the case I'll just rush for the Dunban titan armor speedo and be the best character anyway.

I think it's plenty creepy but it also isn't anything new and probably will not have a large impact on sales. Xenoblade probably sold more poorly than Persona 4 and literally the first thing in Persona 4 is a teenage girl in a bikini.

I'd say just get all the skimpy armors and edit a property on them so you can't equip them to Lyn. Boom. 13 year old is herself except you can't put her in creepy outfits so people can stop whining about how they can't stop themselves from doing so.

Yeah that sounds great, restricting her from using a whole bunch of armor with useful stats that you can also change the looks of if you desperately want to because changing her age is apparently not easy enough. By the way this discussion is loving dumb and I can't wait for it to happen over and over until release and then some more.

I watched a video of some dudes playing Smash U for the first time and some dude picked Shulk in underwear and another dude was appalled that the game had an almost naked thirteen year old.

The original Persona 4 did sell significantly more in Japan than Xenoblade Chronicles, but not as well in the US(we don't have exact US sales numbers of Xenoblade Chronicles because Nintendo didn't release them, but they did say it sold more copies than it did in Japan). Persona 4 Golden, however, completely trounced Xenoblade's Wii + New 3DS sales combined on its own in every region.

I mean I am seriously not defending this stuff and wouldn't be an iota sad if it was changed or removed but for an audience the size of Xenoblade it probably ain't gonna matter much.

The cosmetic armor option is locked behind NG+ (or DLC), for some bizarre reason.

It's funny how all the adult men in this game manage to look like adult men. Pretty wild how "anime style" makes that possible for dudes, but only dudes. Wonder what's going on there. Hey, I can tell you're invested in the game being good, which is why you're defending the pedophilia in it. I am also invested in the game being good, which is why I would prefer for pedophilia not to be in it. Different mindsets, different ways of managing one's hype. Honestly, although Sex Children are not something you should have to put effort into avoiding, the people saying "well you can AVOID IT" are still not as bad as trying to pretend that Lyn could ever pass for an adult woman and therefore it's not gross.

I'm pretty sure you don't need to avoid it, more you need to actually look for it. It's there if you put on armour with lovely defense, but Lyn's your tank so why would you equip that armour on her unless you want to stare at her tatas?

This is assuming the bikini and the nude harness are the only examples of sexual armor Lyn can wear, which is not a safe assumption. The first Xenoblade had a lot of racy high-defense heavy armor, and I'm sure this one does too.

Also if you think anime moefication of female characters to look younger and cuter is child porn I guess you outed yourself as a pedo if you played the original Xenoblade or consumed any big eye media ever?
