How did my wanting some fanservice on the female skins turn into this

Because when you have an approximate 1:3 female:male ratio in your game, people are gonna run out of options soon.

Also, the women of DB are dressed rather well, other than Proxy with that hazardous tank top and socks-as-sleeves thing.

Now for that Obsidian Kira Bikini Summer Edition skin.

You mean Obsidian Rhino Bikini Summer Edition skin.

Obsidion Rhino has a helmet, and only a helmet.

Finally we get to see those rhino abs. I bet he has a 12 pack

I would think more like a keg :stuck_out_tongue:

When you run out of options you ask for new options, you don’t turn to the non-options.

And the issue is exactly that they are dressed too well. Their clothing is probably the only realistic thing in the whole game - and only really to a point, since women dressing sexy isn’t some sort of made up male fantasy, but something plenty of women do and love doing.

Well, the mercs in DB are not part of those women (if you don’t consider the current in-game outfit’s sexy) The only character I can imagine running around almost naked is Phoenix.
So showing plenty of skin wouldn’t fit the general art-style of the game, nor would it fit the character of the mercanaries

Wouldn’t complain though…

The mercs don’t fit the character of mercenaries. They fight for two sides that pay basically the same, in mysterious “credits” you can only use to buy cards that dictate what weapons you can use in any mission, and who are so whimsical that after 10 minutes of an operation declare “this is taking too long, mission is a failure” like spoiled brats who got bored of their toys. Let’s not even get into having access to air strikes and orbital satellites, but never using that on the single chopper that comes do any pick up.

Meanwhile the whole female cast is made of over-covered hot young women that, aside from Nader, are likely too young to have combat experience with one gun, let alone all available in all loadouts. Yet here they are. All of them coincidentally being “not part of those women” who enjoy flaunting their appearance is just a bullshit excuse and I’m pretty sure you know that.

Finally, about it not fitting the general art style, neither Turtle or the upcoming Phantom Obsidians fit with the rest either, so if anything they are open for the style to change and evolve over into different themes.

In decisions regarding gameplay, the only thing that should be considered, is what is better to play. So the same mercs on both sides is, or 15 minute matches, etc. are not e viable argument about lore. (Why not complain then about playing the same missions over and over again? Is Jackal completely retarded to steal the same cores millions of times?) They could’ve implemented different mercs to the opposing sides with different characters but the exact same combat stats, but that would be almost twice the work, and it’s totally not worth that amount of effort.

Nobody in this entire game is over-covered. It’s not f*cking Miami beach, it’s an irradiated war-zone! Wouldn’t you wear as much protective gear as possible in a similar situation?

About everyone being sexy: Why wouldn’t they be? Y’know killing people requires much effort, so weak or fat people are not going to be good at it. It just happens that western beauty standard is to be fit. And there is no reason put in the effort to make them look realistic, but facially unattractive (from a dev perspective)

I have absolutely no idea, what your problem is with Turtle, and yes, the Obsidian Operative skins have a rather Cyber-Punk feeling to them. They look cool, and does not break immersion for me (for other people it might), and they fit with each other. As I said, I wouldn’t mind, if some more revealing skins were implemented, if done correctly, but it certainly would break immersion for lots of people, and that’s why I’m saying, we need to be very careful about it.

And revealing female outfits wouldn’t affect gameplay in any way - unless you’d get distracted staring - making all your other points irrelevant.

You’re either incredibly stupid, or simply trolling me. Either way, you’re not worth my time.

People complaining about female fanservice mercs (which frankly aren’t fanservice at all) but ignoring the fact that there are fanservice male mercs too. Just look at fletcher, lol.

It’s a game, people play it to escape reality. If you wanted realistic representations of characters, you’d just leave your computer and walk around outside. People want something that looks good while they play.

I hope such fanservice never actually makes it into the game. There’s a ton of FPS out there who caters to that kind of thing, Dirty Bomb shouldn’t be one of them. I don’t care whether you are a person who:
-whacks it to cartoons, 3D, animals, furries, MLP, anime, video game, or whatever the fuck weird stuff you weird fookers watch
-hasn’t lost their virginity, your ass-&-tits scanner in public are on a scale level of over 9000, and will be one of the greatest virgin wizards on Earth
-are both of what I just described^
-can relate to some of the things I described^

but that shit doesn’t need to be in every fucking video game there is.


(imLegal) #36

There’s already a huge market which appeals to your needs, quit forcing that kind of stuff down every other game’s throat.

Oh look, it’s another “if you disagree with me, mommy says you’re ugly” sort. So easy to make they come out of the bushes.
