Overwatch Tracer Pose Controversy

(1/5) > >>

Chernobyl Trash:
Not trying to start a fire but do you think Muse would cave like Blizzard did if someone complained about the female models in Guns of Icarus?

Yes, Muse would defiantly respond if a section of their player base felt a part of their game was offensive. Heck if you send an email to feedback@musegames.com just saying hi a developer would respond with in a day or two. Once I loudly complained that the women in GOI were getting better hat models than the men and a few months later the hats in question were made available for the male character models. I don't think muse would do something so stupid as the over the shoulder butt shot in their game. Their development staff has a fairly even woman to man ratio, and this sort of crap would be call out long before it got to deployment.

Of course they would. This community has a decent number of female players in it. Ones who get harassed just about anytime they open their mouths. The pose isn't an artsy piece, it's geared towards sex appeal. Hence the well defined butt crack. If it wasn't so well defined, it probably wouldn't be much of an issue. This is just a problem of Tracer's character design calling for skin tight pants. Yet frankly, even with skin tights, the butt crack shouldn't be that pronounced. The fabric should be stretching across it. Thus the crack should be partially covered. Likely the character designers wanted that sex appeal in there so they went baby got back all over it.

Blizzard knows Overwatch will likely have a rather large female population. Especially because the female fighters in it are so freaken awesome in design.

Aayra:
If I had an ass like that in goio I would play in 3rd person
