    How is that out of context? I 100% agree there's room for both. The issue is that they are outright refusing and losing their minds of girls are even remotely beautiful. All because they hate straight men...despite a LOT of straight women who love beautiful characters. It's bewildering.
    This guy is so scared to have an opinion that is objectively correct, because it's not the opinion of his friends. Craig, if you're reading this. The game devs at Volition studios, now closed, confirmed that they make games for other developers and not gamers. It becomes obvious if you think about it.

    If Capcom can make their characters look like the original model so can western devs. They blatantly choose not too because they are too scared of getting media blasted and "canceled" a la what they are trying to do with Game Science. Hopefully Black Myth ends up being the start of the healing process. If studios see that despite all the negative press the game still ends up being highly successful, then maybe more companies will start taking the risk of making games the way they want them to be made and not the way this nose ring mafia dictates they be made.

    Odd tidbit here: not all the removed marble "bits" were thrown away. When the Vatican censored their statues by removing things and placing artful stone leaves instead, the church officials actually kept the removed "bits" and stored them for posterity. One of my college professors was infinitely jealous of a colleague who spent six months at the Vatican cataloguing them and attempting to identify which one belonged to which statue.
    My professor thought it sounded like an absurdist's dream job. Just unabashedly spending hours upon hours each day scrutinizing marble phalluses while priests and nuns amble by. "I missed out. I'll never forgive myself."
    Edit addition: this is real, by the way. He had proof to back up his lifelong regret. I miss that man.

    If characters like what Walker pitched were put in the games instead of the androgynous creeps they end up going with, people would probably be 100% ok with the game because the character is attractive. The personality of the character may need work, man hating commie women aren't attractive either but that's their entire ideology in a nutshell at this point.
