Dragons Crown got critically ripped apart for having exaggerated proprotions to acccentuate the human form. Worth noting, not just on females but also on males.

 

Metal Gear Solid 4 has females dressed in BDSM gear and an entire game section dedicted to having them in erotic posses so young adults (who most likely watch anime) can oggle them.

Hideo Kojima has stated he will have Metal Gear Solid 5 have woman dress even more like hookers to encurage woman irl to dress like hookers and sell figures. This is openly exploititive. With a character who is more or less wearing a bikni.

Now, ignoring the double standard when it comes to Metal Gear Solids terrible writing and story-telling, is it wrong that games like Dragons Crown get spiffy reviews attacking it for this but somehow, with magic, it's ok with Metal Gear Solid?

If you didn't care, you wouldn't post. Instead you care about getting cool points to appear hip to other internet fellows, so caring, you post, pretending not to care. No cool points. None at all.

THE biggest source of butthurt on this forum has to be the AAAAE MGS IV.

Nobody watches your youtube videos and you seem to think you are a comedian without wit or being funny (like most youtube lets plays) yet you still do it.

Why bash me? Where is the love?

I don't understand why you are still trying to attack me. If we talk about youtube, you have less than 200 views. my youtube videos sit with 100 thousand views. So, good for you? Also matey, no one is forcing you to click and respond to my award winning threads. If it causes so much emotional pain, go have a drink of water and watch some cartoon network.

I have Dragon's Crown, and although I'm not as easily offended, there are some very suggestive positions that the female characters are placed in, blatantly so. MGS series knows how to teter along the line, while this game deliberately crosses it.

Some people just need to grow a fvcking spine... I'm tired of hearing how the video game indusrty gets so much flak over sexualism when other forms of media use it all the time in movies or advertising.

mark1982

There's a HUGE influx over these topics in the last year for some reason. Every game seems to be sexist, homophobic or has some sort of "hot topic" agenda behind them.

So, big muscles = more sexist? Cause thats the only real diffrent here. Musclular woman. Also this art style is universal across the board.

Yet, regardless for the all the "mature" Witchering, it always seems to be woman being showed off fully naked, never men. Again, Dragons Crown has both men and woman with highly exagurated muscles wearing very little, not just the females.

And they always go after popular, or heavily discussed games. Ken's Rage 2: [spoiler]   [/spoiler] And to add some fuel to the sexism fire. The fella in the 2nd gif rips her clothes off because the woman said she was a warrior. Only males can be warriors, so if she's a "warrior" she doesn't need to cover up herself.

dragon's crown is an overly sexualized game that focuses on sexual exploits of npcs at times. shoot, half of them are almost naked. mgs5 does not do that.

lol...

 

One thing is normal women wearing skimpy clothes (ever turned on the Tv?) the other is having women with ridiculously huge breasts and rears...

Not that i think that GS is correct by criticizing Dragon's Crown (especially when it comes from Japan...) but to compare one thing to another makes no sense op...

Sorry it does and most of the votes agree with me. As mentioned twice (third time) it's not just the woman in dragons crown, it's everyone, regardless of sex.
