    I’ll never forget when people lost their shit over the Horizon Zero Dawn protagonist having peach fuzz on her face.

      And mocap actress was so pretty they had to tone down the alloy model, and make it uglier, in TLoU2 Abby’s man body model, when they could have used a women’s body model.

      it’s truly a artistic choice? Or it’s the devs badly disguised fetish?

        What fetish are you suggesting the employees of these companies in the chain of approval for these decisions all coincidentally had in common for it to make it out to a public audience unchallenged?

        You don’t think the mocap actress being in the 40s had anything to do with it?

        You mean the people who are getting paid loads of money to model characters all day? I wonder why they bothered too. /s

          Well I mean, they’re coming out with a new Assassin’s Creed game, right? Have they individually modeled every whisker on Jumpy Stabby Man’s face?

          The extremes of graphics like that just don’t interest me. Exhibit A: I’ve been replaying West of Loathing this week.
