for dragon's dogma 2, turns out you can't make characters that are deemed "too flat" or "too short" so that sucks. imagine being a 5ft petite woman who wants to make herself in games but you can't these days because retards think you look like a child. the height floor is 160cm for fred fuchs' sake. that's the height of damaris, my phantasy star character. i can JUST BARELY make her. i don't think that's very short at all for a woman tbh.

you could make just straight up child characters in dragon's dogma, the original game. the steam discussion boards are going at it rn.

and damn.... how far we've fallen in terms of puritanism man. it used to be Fox News and the conservative rightoids that were all against video games, fun, and fiction... now it's seemingly EVERYONE including the people who used to hate this kind of censorship bullshit. like, we can't even have children that look normal, they have to look like these weird fucked up midgets like in cyberpunk because the devs are too worried people will want to fuck them or something. as if that would even be their issue to deal with.

i hate it here.

@beardalaxy I haven't checked DD2 out yet myself. Sounds like bullshit though even from someone who generally hates "child-like" races in MMORPGs. I can understand the reasoning that making models and textures is easier when have locked down body dimensions to work with, but it should be just that and nothing to do with... whatever this reasoning is.

Like heck, not every adult has massive boobs... Or are taller than 160cm. It's very easy to make characters look like adults without those features. I hope no one gets confused between elementary school children and adults in real life either... The facial features etc. are very different.

All of this doesn't break or make a game of course. Still annoying that people think boobs=age. Girls can grow breasts at an early age too, that doesn't make them at age. I guess guys only have bodybuilder or dad bod body types too? Otherwise they would clearly look like children (according to this reasoning).

@susie i was kind of disappointed by the lack of boob sizing options in cyberpunk and bg3 too.
