Message: [QUOTE="Tonberry, post: 82810, member: 124861"] I like attractive characters as much as the next person, but I think insisting on having every character in a game be conventionally hot/beautiful/sexy is often boring and safe. My favorite series is probably Final Fantasy, but I've always found it kind of boring how the main party usually just consists of "a gang of lean, beautiful humans". I hate how the Scions in FFXIV are almost all white-haired and only the hot "normal" races. It becomes homogenous and dull. Xenoblade 2 is probably the worst offender of this in recent memory. I love the characters in Baldur's Gate 3, but I think it's boring there too how they feel so superficially samey because of this, until you get to know them of course. For the first, like, at least 40-ish hours of the game you have the hot vampire elf, the hot girl elf, the hot white guy, the hot black guy, the hot frog chick and the hot demon chick, and they're almost all the same height and physique. Then when you're finally able to get your first new companion, I've run into people on more than one occasion who complain that he looks ugly because he looks "too wrinkly" or "too old". Again, I'm not against those kinds of character designs at all, I just think it's boring when designers rely on it too much, regardless of gender, and it's more fun when character designs are more varied because it makes them and the entire party stand out more [I]immediately[/I], and almost always in a good way.
