people being sexy in fighting games is more then just masturbation material (although that's cool too) but it's also because people of all sexes want to be insanely physically attractive but can't in real life because they eat at applebees too much or something. zero G tits are the exact same as guiles biceps the size of his head. this is my essay on gender politics and fighting games, ty for reading.

anyway urien probably has a suit because they want a way to give him alternate colors without just changing his skin tone and so they can sell the speedo as DLC

i don't really care what the characters look like because my eyes generally just glass over as i take my losses buut they probably should put some fat and old ladies in the game like sim/birdie counterparts though because they generally just have skinny girl and skinny girl with T&A. if there was more of a range of body types people wouldn't care that some were fan service.

Didn't Feng Shui Ultra allow her to cancel normals into other normals? It might just be a copy and paste of that rather than Chun's, which just gives her extra hits and hitstun to make certain links possible?

I'd be cautiously optimistic about Balrog but you just know his normals will have no range and nothing will link into anything and blah blah gently caress

The CapcomFighters Twitch channel'll supposedly show off Balrog during their WSO session in about 10 minutes from now (3:30PM EST).

VVV That's kinda sweet; they really want people to know you can combo into it. Maybe it doesn't have I-frames on startup but does a fuckton of damage?

Not with that attitude :colbert:

Look, I don't think there's anything inherently terrible about ridiculous cartoon boobs in fighting games. I just also don't expect people to not pass an immediate judgement about my character if I'm involved with them. Sometimes you main Karin, sometimes you main your girlfriend asking you if you have a pleated skirt fetish and then calling you a weeb.

Male characters are made dumb muscular to be cool male wish fulfilment. Girl characters are made sexy and scantily clad also for dudes to look at, not because (most) girls want to imagine their heroines looking like that. It's not really the same thing.

There's a difference between idealised body image

(yes i know nina's had/has costumes with much less clothes)

and blatant TnA


But any ways this is a dumb derail that happens once a month and has the same usual arguments rehashed, and Capcom isn't interested in talking about their gameplay issues let alone the nuances of gender politics that Japan's never really been into so it's pretty much a moot point.
