I pre-emptively didn't like Sydney based on the voice actor alone (terrible Final Fantasy 13 flashbacks) but after seeing the actual character and the whining about looking like a feminist on the steam forums, I may have to replace Jimmy when stoving.

Isn't this a repeat of the same poo poo that was thrown at Clover and Bonny when they came out? I hope they play up her Australian accent a bit more since her natural voice has a weak accent from the sampling I seen.

For a while there was that inexplicable hate for John Wick.

Jimmy was a little bit of a missed opportunity not having him go full South African, but they needed to stay in line with Hardcore Henry not District 9 or Elysium.

We don't need to have that dialogue because it's obvious, trivial, and has already been had a thousand times.
The Zoë Sarkeesian character pack. 7.99, all proceeds to women's crisis services.

I can report that Facepunch is losing their poo poo, with about 60% of people complaining exactly along the anticipated lines. Enjoy:

Ugly isn't the right word, but it's kind of unusual how almost every single one of the female heisters are very.. 'Colorful'? Flamboyant? Nothing inherently wrong with that, but I figure in a game about robbery and being a career criminal, you'd want to keep your appearance on the down low so nobody notices you before the thing even starts. The only male heisters that really stand out are the Crossover ones like Jacket, and Jimmy, because Jimmy's got bloodstains, and cocaine stains all over his suit on top of his freaky hair, and Jacket just doesn't fit in because of his namesakes jacket.

It's like Overkill doesn't want to create a female that doesn't stick out like a sore thumb whenever they're not wearing masks. Even Clover sticks out a little with her highlights and nose piercing. Most of the male heisters are rather unassuming in appearance, but once you get the women it's like this presence in the room you can't ignore.

kibbleknight;50268806 posted:

I don't really mean to be that guy or anything, but is it really impossible for us to have one regular, kinda okay looking, female character in this game?

They're either weird looking with decent hair or okay looking with bad hair.

For instance, Bonnie's preview picture where she had a full head of hair instead of her Jim Sterling haircut looked pretty okay, but the in-game hairstyle was just weird lookin'. Almost none of the male characters aside from Jimmy have seriously questionable hair or faces, barring how weird faces are in a game that doesn't have facial animations.

And of course the only AR with a drum mag will be part of a paid DLC.
Even though we know they can properly implement drum mag.

What's the point of not leaving fingerprints when everyone can see your tatoo,your awful haircut and maybe your face?

Dallas is generic as gently caress imo

those things will absorb your powers and power her tattoos

I like how we're playing a game where you can walk around with a minigun and rocket launcher and still be considered incognito, yet a nose piercing and highlights are considered over the line.

I mean Chains is an adrenaline junkie who pursues crime because he's convinced he's invincible and also has probably done war crimes (before the war crime dlc) and Dallas had a mid-life crisis and decided to get back into shooting cops to deal with it so it's not like the man heisters we fawn over are exactly well-adjusted and stable individuals, but that's not gonna stop anyone from loving Crimedad and his stupid sexy salt-and-pepper beard.

I like that one dude who Vox quoted who said OVK could implement drum mags but chose not to for some reason. It's not that the reason why they don't have them as mods is because the engine can't give weapons different animations based on what mods they have, no. They had those finished assets just waiting for the proper time to monetize them.
