Well as director Joel Schumacher once said: people like to see beautiful people. That’s why (lead) actors are usually very beautiful, regardless of gender. I mean sure, sometimes you just need Danny DeVito but you get the point
Although personally I don’t see what’s the problem with the screenshot, just replying to what OP said
Disclaimer: I haven’t heard him saying it myself, Mike from channel RedLetterMedia mentioned he saw an interview with him on this topic. But regardless, it made sense to me
@[email protected] how does one define “beautiful”? By who’s standard? Yours? Mine? It’s subjective and also cultural. Then there’s realness which an abundance of shows & movies also follow, casting the correct person for the mood & vibes.
Beauty is subjective but I’m willing to bet I has distribution or atleast some agreement. There are definitely people who other people tend to find more attractive than others.
I’m not arguing characters shouldnt look normal. I was arguing the idea that there isn’t some consistency to what people generally consider attractive. I’d say across all of humanity, including all races there’s probably some agreement among attractiveness. Even without trying to define what it is. I’d say if you had people rank a group there would be some people that came out above others. I don’t think people’s opinion on attractiveness is fully random.
Even across races. Ofc there would be variance between cultural groups but internally those groups probably have some consistency.

Too true. Sometimes you need beautiful people, but sometimes you need perfection.
Somebody wake up their GIMP, we’re gonna need to see what a perfect Ciri looks like.

In other words… I call bullshit on Schumacher.

@[email protected] by who’s ideals?
White westeners?
East Asians?
Southeast Asians?
The moment you try to define beauty, you just end up a ignorant xenophobe.
Why is it bad to let characters age and look mildly real to the hard life that is these videogames?
