You can't "lock" something that doesn't exist.

[Joven]

K. Whatever you say Mister throws assumptions.



You miss the point. The problem is where we could have diversity, we have none. The absence of male viera and female hrothgar is the absence of diversity.

It's not necessarily about them being viera, hrothgar or anything. It's about how the playable genders look. There are no elegant, slender and sexy males. There are no large, imposing and muscular bestial females.

I'm tired of being pigeonholed into being a cutesy or sexy race if I want to play a female with bestial features. And I know others are tired of masculinity always equating to being larger and stronger than comparitively smaller women.

It's boring to see this over and over again.

None of your statements presents any evidence that what you say is taken as fact. So tell me again how I'm throwing assumptions around.

If you have a problem with being 'cutesy' or 'sexy' and find the concept boring then maybe this game isn't for you. This game doesn't need more diversity as there's plenty of it already. If you want to play as a beefy woman pick fem-roes or hyur highlanders, both of which can be pretty muscular. You claim you're tired of being cutesy yet you chose to play as a catgirl, yeah, ok.

If you have a problem with being 'cutesy' or 'sexy' and find the concept boring then maybe this game isn't for you.

You haven't really been paying attention. Female characters getting pigeonholed into looking cute and/or sexy happens all the time. It can be very difficult to escape it AND find a game with mechanics you like.

This game doesn't need more diversity as there's plenty of it already. If you want to play as a beefy woman pick fem-roes or hyur highlanders, both of which can be pretty muscular. You claim you're tired of being cutesy yet you chose to play as a catgirl, yeah, ok.

But I didn't say I wanted to be beefy. I said bestial. Roes and highlanders don't qualify as that. So not only do you not pay attention to how females are usually represented in games in general, you also do not read.

It's not necessarily about them being viera, hrothgar or anything. It's about how the playable genders look. There are no elegant, slender and sexy males. There are no large, imposing and muscular bestial females.

I play a moon catgirl because I like the ears, the lion tail and the fangs. You know, bestial features.
