my pfp is whenever i'm in this thread

anywho. I've never seen any complaints about Hoyo not releasing fat characters, but for skin tones it's more like they don't like how Hoyo gets away with taking inspiration from their cultures but not give them some proper representation in return. much understandable.

why would you want fat playable characters anyway. buff, i get it. but fat? in a game where you explore the world by constantly running and climbing cliffs? come on. you want fat characters, go to tokyo summoners or something

Oh no, someone revived the thread! I'd say that the fat they want is not in the belly but elsewhere... people call them BBC. And probably they read Ratata (the author, not the Pokemon).

No, it's exactly what you're thinking, but fatty black buttocks is another kink of normies. Just type some celebrities names and see where goes the praise.

yeah, from what I've seen the "fat" they want is the chubby kind you'd see on plus sized elf.


its also pretty funny to know that aparently the western block/servers most of that boycott took place in was by far one of the least profitable region in which the game operates aparently.

Seems relevant
the fact they don't even like having to make these controversial changes to appeal to a bigger market is kinda funny (like dude, if you don't like it, just accept a bigger age rating, it's not like in "the west" it's ever been a problem, COD being rated 18 + but being full of 8 yo anyone ?)

I think it's really slimy of them to make said changes AFTER (especially relatively soon) toriyama's death, cause he was the one who designed alot of those characters.

kinda funny how they self censor woman/man with type A/B as well to not get slapped by a lawsuit.

but considering how japanese culture in general is trying as hard as possible to avoid confrontation, I can understand why they choose a more "cowardly" approach.

Higher age ratings reduce sales, in agregate, and they don't want less profits. There is the same for films, where a R15+ rating can kill a movie.

And they have to same problem in Japan with the CERO (the ESRB or PEGI equivalent in Japan) : the CERO-rating is very important for profits. And some games have made tough decisions just to have a lower rating.
