My favorite Skullgirl is the one made specifically to masturbate over, she fits extremely well with my basement decor and Cheeto-themed furniture. In all seriousness, I think I'd want to play the game a lot more if it wasn't as ridiculous as it seems based on those character profiles.

big duck equals goose posted:This is my problem too. Don't get me wrong, I love a good fighting game and I'm sure the mechanics are really fun and all that, but really, who enjoys watching pantry shots every five seconds and a cast of all hip anime women with gigantic tits? I can understand if you are a five hundred pound virgin with autism, but with MVC3 I can be like "Oh poo poo! (Insert random hero here)?! I ALWAYS wanted to see him/her fight!" It's not even an issue of "I don't want to play a woman" or something stupid like that, I'd be perfectly fine with any of these characters if the focus weren't on their T&A. It's just that their portrayal and the way they're treated weirds me out, and I don't want my fighter to be 99% panty shots. Variety is the spice of life, dammit.

big duck equals goose posted:Mmm? I wasn't saying that having an all female fighting cast is bad. Nor am I, just that the panty shot stuff is the video game equivalent to eating a whole can of cinnamon.

Cat Machine posted:But so often it's simply used as a launchpad to talking about sexism in fighting games and video games in general. It very rarely focuses on the game itself. Every time this debate has erupted, people almost immediately go off topic and start personally attacking each other/accusing each other of being paedophiles. That last one's only a problem if you don't believe that everyone is a pedophile. Because they are. Everyone is. Even your mother. Even you. But not me. I'm not. Cause I'm the only not-crazy one. I'm not crazy. Why are you calling me crazy? I'm not crazy.

I will say that between the characters' personalities and the fact that it seems to give a drat about newbies in fighting, this might be the first fighter I actually pick up.
