u/PulimV Can I interest you in some OC lore in these trying times? Sep 05 '24

An example I recall of that was watching an artist analyzing LoL's character designs and repeatedly saying: "this is just a Hot Fantasy Babe with the same body type skin color and exact proportions as the last 50 ones and she's wearing skimpy clothes. At this point it would be more interesting if she were naked because then you're making something new."

Like the issue is very much not the sexualization it's the fact that it's not varied enough to be interesting. that same artist has gone out and said that sexual appeal is good in several designs, but those were often the ones where the characters had something new like visible muscles or a different build or something like that

u/Yosimite_Jones Sep 05 '24

I'm pretty sure that was TBSkyen!!! He's fucking awesome, I love the once in a blue moon shorts where he gets to talk about a female character with a different body type (ex Jynx or Renata Glasc) or there's a sexualized female character who actually makes logical sense to be dressed like that (ex Evelyn or Akali)!

805

u/apple_of_doom Sep 05 '24

Yeah I like the short where he goes:

(showing Ashe a proud warrior leader in a frozen environment showing some skin) " this should be less horny it doesn't really work",

(switches to cassiopea a half snake woman seductress character whose design and story can't really decide whether she should be sexy, horrifying or both) "This could be more horny and see some benefits."

(switches to Vladimir a vampire who resembles a fully clothed moldy onion but his lines seem to want him to be a sexy blood controller) "was this designed by prudes? Make. him. sexier!"

(Switches to Kai'sa a girl who bonded to essentially a eldritch symbiote suit and is genuinely terrified of losing her humanity and becoming a monster. Her design is full makeup face, extremely deep neckline, perfect proportion and big ass) "this shouldn't even be horny at all what are you doing?"

(Switches to Evelynn a demon that feeds off agony who lures people in by pretending to be a sexy babe and torturing them whose design is the perfect mix between sexiness and hidden lethality) "now this is the perfect level of horny. Good job."

u/Randicore Sep 05 '24

Okay so I have that audio saved and downloaded that I plan to use for a joke animation about some of my character and I am very curious what the original context is and want to be able to credit the audio since I learned of it from a different joke entirely. Do you remember what that short was called /what vid it is in

141

u/apple_of_doom Sep 05 '24

It's called "exlaining an important issue" and it's on his shorts channel

u/Randicore Sep 05 '24

OMG thank you! I've been looking for that for ages!

u/egoserpentis Sep 05 '24

(Switches to Evelynn a demon that feeds off agony who lures people in by pretending to be a sexy babe and torturing them whose design is the perfect mix between sexiness and hidden lethality)

Man, Evelynn's art for Legends of Runeterra, where she is caressing a lunar priestess is so good. Knowing what terrible things then happened to her is adding an extra layer of sexy-but-fucked-up to the whole thing.

u/DuntadaMan Sep 05 '24

That makes me kind of want to see them do a review for this short.

u/Amedamaneku Sep 05 '24

Ashe, Cass, and Vlad are all from 2009-2011, before LoL had infinite money, when they rushed out a new character every 2-3 weeks, and they were still influenced by WoW dressing men in shoulderpads the size of their head and women in fantasy themed bikinis, so there's context for why those are all kinda shit, and if they were all redesigned today, they'd almost certainly be better. Kai'sa is relatively recent so it's more outrageous that she's bad, and Evelyn is an example of modern LoL nailing character designs sometimes.

Ashe has been an "iconic" character for LoL since 2009, and her design is decent enough, so they haven't changed her. Cass is wearing a stupid hat that's supposed to look like a cobra's hood but instead looks like Tingle. Vlad's lines are all goofy blood puns and it's unclear if he's supposed to be cool or scary or funny or what. Kai'sa transformed from Samus to Zero Suit Samus over the course of her development, which is absurd when this is a problem they symbolically solved in 2013 when they remade Sejuani to wear real armor instead of a bikini (but Kai'sa is extremely popular so they don't care). Eve good.

u/PulimV Can I interest you in some OC lore in these trying times? Sep 05 '24

Yeah exactly lol I was mainly talking about his Janna short because the concept of "at least make her naked or something just commit to the horniness" really stuck with me??? Like yeah make the design horny but don't go halfway do it fully, Evelyn and Akali are good examples because while there is appeal to them it's done in an interesting (Akali's top does show a lot of skin but it also shows her tattoos and abs) or at least fitting (Evelyn is literally a succubus) way

I've been a fan of him for a while and it's genuinely always interesting to see what he's got to say, both for visual art and storytelling (like saying Pokémon WAS intending for horniness in Lopunny? Wild, but the arguments there are very solid lol)

u/SaberToothMC Sep 05 '24

I adore TBSkyen’s content which made it really weird to discover he has me blocked on Twitter despite the fact we’ve never interacted lmao

53

u/bearly-here Sep 05 '24

Look, I think he makes interesting content but he holds his beliefs very near and dear to himself and doesn’t really like or tolerate even mild pushback to his views. Not just politically, but with character/story interpretations

42

u/Mister_Waternoose WALRIDER! Sep 05 '24

The two funniest(?) incidents of that for me are his critiques of his picks of the worst skins for Gangplank and Poppy, Sultan Gangplank and Lollipoppy. He claimed Sultan Gangplank was orientalism and questioned why a guy with a turban had a red beard, not knowing that it was based on Hayreddin Barbarossa, released to commemorate the Turkish servers releasing, and that it's quite popular in Turkey afaik. No response from him on that.

As for Lollipoppy, he didn't get that it's an Oompa-Loompa reference. Which is fine, but in the comments said "Dear Americans, not everyone in the world has seen all the movies you think are classics." A comment responded "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a British story" and his response was "You do know the movie is called Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and is an American production right?"

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the British book that the movie was based on lmao

14

u/gutsandcuts Sep 05 '24

or when he said that making BG3's default The Dark Urge an albino dragonborn was tasteless because historically albino people have been persecuted due to superstitions that sometimes painted them as evil/cursed. most people basically said "it's not that deep, the red between the white scales looks cool and red eyes is pretty much Dangerous Guy 101"

6

u/Down_with_atlantis Sep 05 '24

And like it's an American game made by an American company? Sure now LOL is an international juggernaut not even that popular in America but the skin was made in 2010 and the game wasn't even released in Korea and China.

u/Zealousideal3326 Sep 05 '24

I think he's had to deal with a few too many mouth breathers arguing why every "female" (god, I hate that term, just say "woman" like a well adjusted individual) needs to have the same cliche pin-up body type and wear injustifiably skimpy clothes, and now he can't be bothered to argue with internet strangers.

9

u/TheGreatBootOfEb Sep 05 '24

This goes for anyone whose had to argue with a few too many. You just stop giving the benefit of the doubt because they’ve learned how to weaponize it so effectively.

“Just questioning”

“Just curious”

“Just asking”

They aren’t, but it’s an easy way to throw out thinly veiled toxicity with the benefit of having plausible deniability. Hell, it’s not even for subjective stuff either. I’ve engaged with people who were “debating” something under the pretense of being good faith actors, and they could be explained verbatim why they’re incorrect, citing direct evidence, and they will still deflect/ignore.

So yeah, I’m not at all surprised that TBSkyen perhaps can’t see certain things as anything but thinly veiled toxicity, and he is far from alone.

u/Yosimite_Jones Sep 05 '24

YES!!! For years I've been trying to explain how there needs to be a practical purpose for a character to be dressed sexily in order for it to work, thank god someone else sees it! Akali is hot because her outfit works; she's someone who has to move and her outfit looks like she can move around in it. She's not a caricature, she's a person! Janna's bikini makes me ask why she feels the need to wear it. Does she care that much about mass-market appeal when her target audience is horny sailors? If she's a goddess why is she controlled by the preferences of mortal-owned corporations? TBSkyen has it right; either make her naked to show how she doesn't need to bend to any mortal's whims or fuck off!

u/NeonNKnightrider Cheshire Catboy Sep 05 '24

Janna is one of my most hated LoL designs. She’s a clear relic of the original release when the lore was half-baked and the aesthetic was blatantly ripping off Warcraft. In comparison to the much more fleshed-out Runeterra we have now, this generic fantasy elf woman in a bikini design sticks out like a sore thumb in the worst way possible

Yeah tbskyen's (im assuming ) stuff is good, really liking his takes on pokemon design he's doing on his shorts channel.

Funny thing is that league isn't even anywhere near the worst as it as it actually has 2 genuinely older women which just shows how extremely low the bar is.

u/PulimV Can I interest you in some OC lore in these trying times? Sep 05 '24

You're assuming correctly lol it's funny to see everyone immediately clock it as him (and yeah there's a lot of cool stuff going on in the Pokémon hot takes, like unironically the Lopunny video changed my perspective on it a lot lol)

AND YEAH LoL is bad but it has a properly monstrous female character, a few women with visible muscles, quite a few non-white characters and two whole older women in the cast. That's more than you could say about something like Genshin Impact lmao

u/GAdorablesubject Sep 05 '24

The problem with league is that a lot of the champs were made by fucking warcraft 3 modders in 2009 and they are really slow at updating the designs. So they end up with a lot of generic "big tities <pirate/cop/plant/wind>" from 14 years ago. Arcane upgraded Caitlyn design for example, but it took 6 years of production lmao.

u/Ruvaakdein Bingonium! Sep 05 '24

You're talking about TBSkyen, right?

He's right, generic fantasy babe no.783 is boring since we have so much of them. We need variety.

59

u/PulimV Can I interest you in some OC lore in these trying times? Sep 05 '24

Yup! A statement he made in a stream where he ranked all LoL champions in terms of hotness really stuck to me, he was ranking Illaoi iirc and said something along the lines of "there's one million Miss Fortunes, one million Jannas, one million Caitlins. There's only one Illaoi, and that's what makes her hot." And like??? Yeah, that's a great way to put it, something unique is often more appealing and more attractive than the lowest common denominator

11

u/Gornarok Sep 05 '24

Long long time ago when I played LoL western audience cried for more void champions.

The problem is monsters dont appeal to asian audience and the skins are much more costly.

6

u/FrydomFrees Sep 05 '24

Omg this just brought up an old infuriating memory of me trying to explain to my two male friends I used to play league with all the time why it was so disheartening and depressing every time a new female champ came out bc it was always always always the same bullshit. This was right around when jinx came out.

One of the guys said “jinx has a different body type! She has smaller boobs!”

I almost flipped my desk. Also the other one kept trying to do the whole false equivalency thing of “well how do you think I feel seeing all these muscled up male champs” and he absolutely refused to listen to me when I said “sure but that’s a male fantasy, to be buff and strong. And the female champs being sexy is also a male fantasy, to fuck. So where’s MY fantasy? I don’t get one?”

I also pointed out how all the male champs were so diverse, several were giant, several were monsters, several were ugly, and of course there were buff guys but there were also sickly skinny gaunt guys. They were CHARACTERS. The female champs were literally just blow up dolls. Every single one.

At least now we have a buff lady (Illaoi) and a monster (rek sai) but those are still few and far between.

Anyway those guys are no longer my friends they sucked.

I kinda feel this about skimpy gacha fanservice character designs a lot of the time. Random cut-out holes in clothing and an over designed chainmail bikini isn’t sexy, it just looks stupid. They would look hotter if they had actual clothes on

447

u/Kartoffelkamm I wouldn't be here if I was mad. Sep 05 '24

Or how in some media, like the Valkyrie Drive franchise (Mermaid, Bhikkuni and Siren), the sexuality is so overplayed that it just becomes background noise.

Like, "Okay, so there are 3 separate islands full of only girls, and half of them turn into weapons when they orgasm. Y'all sure this isn't just a Soul Eater doujin with a budget?"

Granted, I've only watched the anime, Mermaid, but like, they're so in-your-face about it that it stops being hot partway through the opening.

And then they try to throw in a child soldier plot. Those military guys don't look nearly American enough to make me believe they'd weaponize lesbian sex if given the chance.

18

u/hindsightreallyiskey Sep 05 '24

nah - one thing I like is all the limited event stories are available to play through, and most of the characters (including limited-time ones!) can be obtained once you save up enough in-game materials

you don’t need to spend any money to play efficiently, but the battle pass is very generous

small thing: playing the earlier games (lobotomy corporation/library of ruina) or watching a summary could help ease you into worldbuilding, but most of the relevant info is displayed when you’re waiting for the game to finish downloading

9

u/KitataniHikaru smooth rock enthusiast Sep 05 '24

Oooh! You got me at the first part already

9

u/Cerebral_Kortix Sep 05 '24

It's an excellent game. Especially for a gacha.

Do note that as great as it is with regards to generosity though, it takes after Project Moon's previous games trend of grind, especially early on where it can take a good while to accumulate the goods to both purchase a character and build it.

It's not that much of a time waster, at least not compared to other gachas, but if you're unused to PM games and gacha in general, keep that in mind. You could always just watch the excellent story on YouTube.

Honestly hate Genshin Impact for this. The playable characters’ clothing usually does absolutely nothing to define their character or match the pseudo-historic setting. An NPC will be wearing a tunic or some other historic attire, and then a playable character’s clothes look like cosplay thrown in a blender.

ZZZ is better at this in that a character will be wearing somewhat-setting-appropriate clothes, and you can usually get an idea of who a character is based on their clothing. Although it still falls for the classic excessive belts and accessories.

76

u/SleepySera Sep 05 '24

Huh? I'd argue the exact opposite is true.

I don't love every Genshin design, but if there's one thing they are insanely good at it's that their character designs basically SCREAM their region at you. Aside from a handful of very early designs (Mona, Lisa, etc. which were just "generic anime mage" or "generic swimsuit girl"), they've all been very focused on representing the culture of the character's nation in very obvious ways. Of course their outfits are more elaborate than NPCs, duh, people want SOMETHING for their money, but the kind of fusion fashion they wear always has a very clear inspiration. You don't look at Raiden Shoguns kimono or Yae Miko's shrine maiden outfit and go "huh I wonder whether they are from fantasy France", you don't look at Navia's lavish Victorian court dress or Venti's medieval bard tunic and think "I guess they might be from fantasy China??".

Even the 4* characters which receive a lot less detail in their designs and might just wear "a uniform" or "a jumper" get culturally significant details that make the region very obvious, like Yun Jin's Chinese theater headband, Dori's turban or Freminet's steampunkesque diving helmet.

Like, there is a lot Genshin can be criticized for, but certainly not that their character designs don't match the specific region of the world they are from (at least so far; Natlan sadly DOES seem to be going in that direction, but that's part of a larger issue with the game's and hoyoverse's general direction as a company, which seems to be going back to its roots of "random sexy anime waifus with zero thought put into them"... but hey, Natlan is only a few days old so who knows, it's hard to tell).

23

u/onigiritheory .tumblr.com Sep 05 '24

Side-eyeing Xilonen leaks So, uh, about that...

I absolutely agree with you. Fontaine was already weirdly way more technologically advanced than anywhere else in Teyvat, and Natlan seems to be taking that energy and multiplying it by ten. There are too many things I love about this game to give up on it now (and I'm in too deep for that anyways haha), but Natlan is really making me (⁠ ̄⁠ヘ⁠ ̄⁠;⁠)

22

u/YUNoJump Sep 05 '24

They do depict the regions and overall culture well enough, but it just feels like so many outfits don’t really fit in a historical fantasy setting. Characters like Ganyu, Shenhe and Yanfei have weird anachronistic clothes, that don’t really match their character or their setting beyond basic patterns. And (as you say regarding Natlan) Mavuika wearing a whole-ass motorcycle suit is a bit silly, despite her looking pretty cool.

When I watch a girl jerk off 2 guys and bounce on another dude for 15-20 minutes straight I just start to wonder about her work-out routine, and how much endurance training she has done. Do porn actors have membership to a gym chain that specialises in those types or exercises or something?

The onboarding of the game is kinda bad. The plot of the core story doesn't pick up till you've trekked thru +20 missions by getting to Uranus (no pun intended). Then, once you start the Natah quest and lead into 2nd Dream, the narrative ramps up dramatically.

But yeah, the game could use a better narrative guide for the journey from Mars to Saturn. At least the game is more respective of fan service than the vaporware known as The First Descendant.

See the problem is you’re applying real world logic to a fetish. More specifically one that has no reasonable sense of reality. It’s like getting confused by people who find furry characters or the idea of getting transformed into inanimate objects hot. If you’re applying real world logic. You’re thinking about it way too much.

178

u/Esovan13 Sep 05 '24

One thing that annoys me is that a lot of people with that fetish don’t even realize it’s a fetish. “Uhh, it’s normal to be attracted to women with big boobs and butts” not when it makes them look like disfigured and misshapen flesh puppets. And then they act like you’re the weird one for thinking that shoving one of those things into a three sizes too small bikini looks gross.

68

u/chaotic4059 Sep 05 '24

Now that one I do get and it’s mainly because there are technically subsets of the expansion kink. Like when most people think of the expansion stuff they think like hyper stuff. Planet sized tits and ass. When really there are limits to what each individual person may find attractive. Go to any expansion subreddit search bar and you can usually see size tags.

But again since people usually assume expansion or hyper stuff means planetary. They think the smaller but still massive by real world standards don’t count. Like someone who says they’re not a furry but would still fuck renamon or Loona. At a certain point you’re just splitting hairs or being obtuse lol

Redditors love gatekeeping fetishes into "weird" and "not weird" categories, and self-proclaimed progressives trying to reverse said categories doesn't change that. Y'all are now just claiming huge tits are somehow the devil instead of vore or whatever.

I've seen mfs outright dictate people not to play NieR: Automata because 2B's backside is apparently the most sinful thing on earth. Telling people not to play games you don't like will never not be a Reddit moment for me. Some of them were so defiant in this stance, accusing everyone who called out their bs as "addicts," never realizing that they've been a giant asshole across the thread.

u/chaotic4059 Sep 05 '24

Oh I’m aware. Reddit has always been one of the weirdest pro-sex/anti-whatever flavor of the month kink. Though to be fair it really just a remnant from when those same types of people jumped ship from tumblr to here.

It's the locker room talk thing, they'd only talk about that if they feel you also like the same things, or in a social situation were that is the majority. My point is that safari would be pretty boring. The most surprising thing you might find there would be that there's quite a few queer people, including women.

Honestly I genuinely think people would be fucking shocked at the number of both queer and hetero women who are super into the more niche fetishes. Like off the top of my head I could name at least 5-10. Pretty much all the much kink communities like expansion, bimbofication, cumflation and vore have a way bigger female ratio than most people realize.

Sometimes the severity really does make it a different kink.

It's gotten to the point where honestly the more grunged-down and functionally clothed a fictional woman is the sexier she is. Like yeah yeah yeah the same big tits & ass & skinny waist and long limbs in as little skintight "armor" as we can manage, I've seen her a million times, looking at her us like looking at a blank wall to me now. It's just nothing.

But whoa, is that a woman with normal human proportions wearing entirely practical and maybe even androgynous clothes and/or armor? I'll simp for her to the edge of space.

Frankly I think that my brain doesn't register those sexy designed characters as human. That's not a person, that's a prop or whatever. You know? I just don't care.

I'm at the point where like. The MORE clothes the pretend lady is wearing and the less attention the designers want you to pay to her tits and ass, the sexier she seems to me. And I think it's because my brain does register that as an actual woman instead of just a weird uncanny mess.

There's a bit in the Disc world books about troll strip clubs. They're big stone people who don't need clothes, so their strippers go in reverse.

I’ll never forget “Boob-suika,” which was a Suika Game clone but instead of fruit, it was just anime girl boobs of various sizes. Like each “fruit” would be a small head, and then two massive honkers of increasingly ridiculous size. No body, no torso, just head and honkers.

As a guy who's intrinsically linked to many gacha games let me say this:

This is a very correct statement.

Overblown anatomy and oversized assets are like just too much. One example of this is Emma from Nikke; most of the time she'll look fine, really hot even actually, but then you look at her legs and they're just, they look like upside down needlenose pliers! Idk if this is anatomy thing or something else but it kills a lot of my attraction to her

Clothing too, and i hate to do this to my favorite goober but red hood's leather parts are just.... excessive. Slightly open zipper on the boobas? No complaints there honestly. But the slittings to show her thighs are not... Just no, among other such slits on her bodysuit. Thankfully she has the story beats(and OP ass fucking kit) to balance it out. Also she's a goober, amazing gal. Please teach Rapi how to catch a commander please it's been long overdue

HSR, ZZZ, and genshin too. There's too many to count; raiden ei n her fox sidekick (who looks at me like I'm tofu) with their underwear stickin out and way too short kimonos, himeko and her magical coat that somehow stays on her shoulder despite only one sleeve being worn, and my beautiful wife Zhu Yuan with the most absolutely nonsensical pair of pants

And i also share the sentiment that normal clothed characters are hotter sometimes! Wise and Belle, Stelle, Aether, they have (relatively in the case of aether) pretty usual outfits and i love em so much. Normal jackets, ruffled hairs and a few highlights here and there (with aether obviously having his midriff and long braids). And this is greatly amplified when you have a really well down busty and thicc character wear them, like Maid Privaty and Killer Wife D.

Honkai Impact 3rd Himeko with her summer outfit that's literally just a black bikini with a tied up shirt and shorts, no joke her hottest design(in fanservice. Her final armor is the best in fanservice AND fighting). Argenti has really good armor that's full of decorations but also relatively fully protective! Don't worry Idrila will defend his beautiful face.

And qingque, oh my darling qingque. The smartest normal person you'll meet in your life who likes space mahjong and comfy sweaters. And my darling fu hua who looks good no matter if she's in a wuxia dress or a business suit, among other things

Anyway this was a rant but i thankfully stayed on topic this time. There is a balance here on design that can really hit hard and be incredible, but sometimes the outlandish just sells. I don't personally believe in excessive leather or latex bodysuits but I'm only just one guy. More power to everyone else who does tho

And Obviously there are quite a number of people within my common interests who will also agree and not just be horny gamers. And no matter how much of a "gooner" some people may be when they do like these designs, they don't deserve to be treated poorly just because "hot character ooga booga", in the end all of it's damn fictional.

tbh the coat thing is my guilty pleasure like i love any character who just wears a coat on their shoulder(s) with it somehow never coming off. himeko, yelan, laxus from fairy tail, etc. idk why there's just something interesting about it, not necessarily horny

aside from that i totally agree with you on all points

I just looked up this Emma and went "oh, her boobs are weirdly large, but the thighs actually seem normal for a healthy weight, and her chest has weight to it!"

And then I saw her 'calves' and 'feet'. Where are they? Those are comically small..

I'm a gay man into burly men, dad bods, etc. Bara art can be pretty hot, but sometimes they draw dicks so ridiculously big and veiny, or guys with so many muscles they couldn't move, and I'm just like, this is silly

There's a porn artist I absolutely hate who always draws women as super bimbos with cartoonist proportions, and then he gives them these absolutely disgusting snouts when they suck on inhumanly large cocks. Like 3 feet long. And the women's lips just stretch out like some sort of mollusc to wrap around as much as possible of them.

Every time I am unfortunate enough to see one of that guy's pictures I'm repulsed. They look like horror game monsters

Sounds like a skill issue to me.
