I got temp banned from their discord for saying that we should get equally sexy male outfits, like Hideki naked with a wet towel covering his animated bulge while he blushes. It's exactly the same shit they do with Sawako and many others, but I got insulted, told I was making everyone uncomfortable, and that "this isn't a game for such sexual things!!" lol men are such cowards

>>37135

>one of the few universal taboos
Year old post but worth noting that historically it cannot be considered universal. Egypt around 1st-3rd century AD featured 15%-20% marriages in the general population (not just elite) being brother-sister marriages, most of them between full siblings. This was in a social context where women's independence was very high for the time, too: property was split equally between sons and daughters, women held property to their own name, and they could divorce husbands at will. Ancient Iran also saw sibling incest as holy and their religion encouraged it until Islam took over.

At present, it is looked down everywhere to a greater or lesser extent. Only difference is whether the law punishes it or not. But it's not an ironclad rule of nature, as the past shows.

Every pre-Abrahamic society celebrated sibling incest

It just skirts a bit too close to the ‘video games cause violence’ school of thought for my taste. I reject the mentality outright.
While true that someone could develop healthy interests from a fictional character, I don’t think social engineering should be the focus of entertainment.

>>37197
"How it should be" and "how it is" are very different things. Entertainment has been used for social engineering since time immemorial.

It's a conflation of "Game is bad" with "female leads". Unfortunately, a lot of devs put female main characters in games without making them either good gameplay-wise of story-wise, and use it as a shield for criticism. The same problem with movies.
Women leads are generally the face of those writers/devs so they associate subconciously girl lead = shit

I do have my own "bad take" regarding the visual elements of new Marathon.

Original Marathon was for its time at a normal level of gore, but by today standards it was very gory. Far moreso than a lot of retro shooter games, though less than the modern Doom games.

People did not just bleed a little, grab their chest and fall over. The game used different death animations dependent on cause of death. They were turned into red mulch and finished their explosion animation dozens or hundreds of meters away from the point where they were explode-shot. They had entrails and offal and bone and their death screams were recorded by a man who was also a lead singer in a band. People would kill civilians with the flamethrower just to hear the unique flame death scream. The video documentary of the college boys who coded the game showed them high fiving after triggering a mass explosion of a bunch of different people with a grenade shot, and the word "carnage" was very prominent both in game and in marketing for it.

If you've only played Doom (original, unmodded, when it only had 1 death animation per enemy), or haven't played any boomer shooters before, and are interested in trying Marathon out–pay some attention to how people die. The humans have two or three different death animations depending on whether a weapon made an enemy (or innocent citizen) bleed, burn, or burst apart–this is more attention than was paid to some of the alien enemies, and in Marathon 2 the multiplayer human enemy death animations are really very good. The means of violence generated a specific visual consequence, and human blood is specifically an important visual and gameplay element because if anyone bleeds anything other than red then they are bombs in human form and will run up to you and explode in a shower of entrails that will also take away half of your health and kill anyone nearby.

Original Marathon had zero (0) female sprites, only an omnipresent disembodied feminine artificial intelligence character with no associated image at all. There was a retro style game whose creator said he wanted to carry over the visual language and gameplay of Original Marathon, but used primarily female-presenting (mostly femboy) sprites–it was called "Citadel" and most of its reviews in English mention how deeply uncomfortable, ero-guro-esque and stomach churning the introduction of female characters to the charnel house of a Marathon-stylPost too long.

With a little consideration I think what made Marathon gore hit different was really that it was very "readable." Especially in the context of four-or-more multiplayer matches. So it's not really any closer to Citadel than to New Marathon.

Marathon had a physics engine such that characters would be thrown in a direction by any projectile that hit them–not just special explosives–and their sprite death would face a specific direction, it would not be an animation that was always facing the player as happened in many contemporary games. If someone else killed another person and you only saw the death, then you saw enough to know the direction of the killer. And if you saw the dead body from a death that you didn't quite get to see, then you saw what kind of weaponry the killer was equipped with, and this was enough to make some playstyle decisions. Bullets in Marathon were dodge-able moving particles, not hitscans, but they are the fastest slow-moving particles in game. You'd want to remain around some obstacles if you were dealing with a bullet death since the weapons that can reasonably cause bullet deaths have mid- and long- range advantage that makes open ground a bad option. If they were explosion deaths, then you would want to try to get to open ground and if you were using the AR you'd want to switch to something orientated more towards mid and long range, or an explosive weapon if you can keep eyes on the points of egress. And if it was a flame death then you'd probably want either higher ground with an explosive weapon or open ground with a shorter range one, but would want to avoid cover and enclosed spaces.

It does seem odd that both of the culturally significant modernized successors to Marathon would receive twitter hate specifically for their handling of deliberately female and androgynous-male character forms. Citadel for being far, far, far too anime and Marathon for being not quite anime enough. Citadel is gorier, by a lot, but the gore has a very different feel to it. Marathon and its weapons and death animations were designed and balanced around the multiplayer deathmatches the dev team had gotten caught up in, so the readability of the deaths was probably intentional and a deliberate way to keep the game flowing when you had anything above a two player match. Citadel was single player only, and every videPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Maybe the anime doesnt have fanservice but im only a manga reader
Theres a lot of awesome works that hasnt been influenced by mainstream otaku culture and these are my most recent favorites

>>37068
Fumiko Fumi is a shoujo fan though, but still has a pretty genuine writing

Asobi Asobase doesn't have any fanservice, it also happens to be the funniest anime I've ever watched

>>36747
late but love you anon

>>37137
I think Asobi is like the funniest anime ever so I tried watching it with some friends but they all thought it was too weird and perverted like the water scene that the principal mistakes for piss in episode 1

>>36554
I would date Melia.

>>36629
Can I be your scissor sister too?

>>36554
All of the Xenoblade 1 men are extremely dateable. I prefer DILF Shulk to 1 Shulk though.

>>36554
I love him…and all those guys!

>>37136
Daddy Dunban for me please

>>36939
so sick of DEI crap

>>37047
lol wut

1 draws more attention to the face which is probably what you're going for here? the hair in 2 is just far more detailed than anything else so it automatically brings attention to it first.
also stop saying gay panic it's lame lol.

>>37080
Both are cute but I like aspects from both like the subtle blush on the right one as wel as the more detailed hair (even though thats all you changed lol)

I see you broke up the silhouette of the hair on the right, probably don't do that because it makes it much more cluttered and hard to look at. I would also suggest adding more detail to just the bangs so the piece doesn't feel unfinished and the transition from less to more detailed isn't so jarring

but idk I migh tbe talking out my ass

>>37080
Left looks more aggressively gay.

troon thread

I don’t know what gay panic inducing means.
