Time for another make over with stupid poofy pants. Also, it's amusing how she still thinks the sleeves are too short. Can't have those sinful elbows showing.

At least the poofy pants don't look completely out of place. It's the baggy-ass top that doesn't fit. What girl wears a top with that much sag around the back? Either that or she's got lats so huge they would put Terry Crews to shame.

Also note that there are a lot more golden frills scattered about that have nothing to do with how practical her outfit looks. Basically, this is them going "I CAN TOTALLY DO IT BETTER THAN THIS PROFESSIONAL CHARACTER DESIGNER!"

(Oh, and of course she gets a slightly more sullen expression. Because the original one wasn't sullen enough.)

The obsession with poofy pants is so ironic considering how many characters these people shit on with them (e.g. Shantae). Once again, these people aren't looking for creative solutions to their problems. They want everyone to follow the same bland template.

Let's talk about some choice quotes:

"Can you tell that this gal is a forest witch? Cause neither can I. She’s also a princess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I really want to see the art lead’s notes on this design, just to see what their “reasoning” was for this. “The gold jewels under her breasts are symbolic of her ties to the royal family, but she can’t see them because of her breasts obscuring them, just like she lost sight of her family!!” I don’t know. "

Do you know how many RPGs/video games/media has the "forest witch/princess" aesthetic? It's so overused that I honestly like a change of pace considering the artist decided not to plaster green/flowers on her design and call it a day. Instead, they tried to do something new. Now, the artist could have something else to show her connection with nature but give credit where it's due, they didn't go in stereotypical forest witch stuff you see so much of in media.

As for the princess comment:

This is a princess:

This is a princess too!

Anyone can be a princess and where the most conservative/outlandish outfit possible. It's fiction. It can be ANYTHING you want! The fact that these people seem to believe the most conservative outfit is the best one is crazy to me.

Who said the reasoning was there to begin with anyways. Why does every design need to have some sort of bigger meaning in terms of sexuality or gender? Some people like boobs and they draw them. Some people like thighs. They draw them. Some people like t and a. They draw them. You don't need a reason for that attraction in terms of design. You can just make it and it exists....That's the beauty of it, you can make anything you want. I doubt the artists of these works appreciate it when people edit over their efforts for some asinine reason. You aren't any better, smarter, or more fulfilled from trying to "take away" elements you find bad. With all the time to create new characters that fulfill your needs, this once again, solves nothing.
 
I was watching some old Bar Rescue episodes and I couldn't help thinking of something one of the female bar owners told John Taffer (the main guy of the show) that women are intimidated by beautiful women. While John thought that was stupid, I have to wonder if SJWs and/or modern feminists are the exception. Why else would they try to make conventionally attractive women look ugly (or at least really cover them up)? Get mad when men admire said women (blame the creepy marketing guy or cheer when sex doesn't sell)? This site would be a good example of this theory.

They've already covered Nier a few times. Queen's Blade would annoy them a lot given how you can strip the fighters as well. I remember there being something on Queen's Blade before the Tumblr adult images purge and they deleted a bunch of stuff.

Seeing that pic again I just realize, what the fuck is that sword? There's no hilt.

Good thing too since there's already a character that fits that aesthetic.

They'd still hate this design because her poof-bootyshorts don't cover at least half of the legs. Even though she's got small breasts, there's exposed flesh on her chest.

Also, she's a battle dancer. Those stupid puffy pants would hinder her movement

Unfortunately, the concept of a battle dancer is completely beyond these people. They're too hung-up on their own definitions of "realism". By which I mean, being triggered by anything that could be considered sexy, cute or coy.

That is all, of course, ignoring that 90% of those characters do not come from settings where realism was ever stated to be a goal, or even tangential element to the design.

This is their response to such comments: "We don’t. But we expect it to be consistent and to use good communication practices. Making sexy the top priority hurts design and insults the audience. "(See their rhetoric bingo.)

EDIT:
I was playing Heart's Medicine and I can't help thinking that the main character (Allison Heart's) look would be too skimpy/sexual for them.

This pondering came at work today. It's interesting how feminists/SJWs will be for slut walks, be against slut-shaming, and care for the agentcy of fictional women (don't make their designs sexy because it hurts their dignity), but then do the slut-shaming of sexy/scantly-clad women characters they claim to despise. Like how BABD refers to Melena (Mortal Kombat series) as a titty ninja and look down on her or say that a female medic with knee pads uses them to give out blowjobs. Also the character agency never applies to men.

Same as always: "It's okay when we do it."

The medic knee pads thing is bringing back memories of why I can see this group as spergy. Out of all the things to complain about a character design and they go for something that actually could have both a sense of protection and not looking like something skimpy. Then again, I should also remember what you said before: they'll make an issue out of the smallest thing, such as face paint on a barbarian even though one can work that with a barbarian that wouldn't come from a Frazetta cover of Red Sonja.

There are ancient warriors like the Picts and the vikings who wore face paint so I don't see the big deal with a female character having it when in battle.

Lady, your standards aren't barely-mid-tier. Your standards are "sexy = baaaaaaaad". Just own up to you being a petty moral guardian and yell "BAN THIS SICK FILTH!" like you've been wanting to for years now.

They like to claim that they don't mind sexy designs of women under the right circumstances, but I don't believe it.
