    So…like…did they just scan her ass with lidar and import it into the game? Because that, alone, doesn’t seem like a tremendous asset. Ass libraries must be a dime a dozen. That’s a tradition as old as the copying machine.

    Or did they recycle mocap suit data? That seems much more valuable than a blender rendered rump.

      Possibly dressed her up similar to the character photo scanned then retopologized, touched up, etc. Could be they just made a basic female model and used it as a foundation.

      Possible she did some mocap as well.

      Big thing is it’s easier to make mocap look natural on a model if the model and mocap actor are the same person. Though for a game this stylized I’m not sure it would matter.

      Probably an effect of the angle. Standing erect, the wrist will usually be aligned with the groin. Women tend to have shorter torsos and longer legs compared to men of the same height, so a wrist that goes a bit below the groin line will still look ok. Since the Marvel Rivals character designs are all very stylized, you can bet she has really nice legs

      The pic that gives the biggest impression tho is the first on the left, with the arm stretched back a bit, but again, mostly an angle thing.

    Someone is going to make a long post about how women is being portrayed as sexual objects in games and will absolutely refuse to acknowledge this post.

      So tired of it being 2025 and these posts making it to Lemmy. Have any of you ever actually played some of the queer games out there? I’ve played lesbian games made by women mostly targeting an audience for women that are so spicy they’d set your skin on fire. It’s not the sexuality that’s an issue, it’s a larger cultural conversation about where these things belong, how they’re viewed by the masses, and the impression it creates on children who this is ostensibly for too, I guess? Teens? Still impressionable.

      Grow up and go play an h-game in your own privacy and don’t make it everyone else’s problem. And stop laundering your opinion with “someone is going to make a post”. You made the post, you brought the trash into the house, and the (current) 9 upvotes shows you’re giving it space to breath and quite frankly, it reeks.

      EDIT: no opinion on post, I don’t care how caked she is. If I were that actress, I’d honestly be proud, too.

        I’m genuinely confused as to who or what you’re talking about. I don’t get how this relates to the comment you replied to or the OP…

          Last post and I’m done here, but let me explain the post and my response:

          Someone is going to make a long post about how women is being portrayed as sexual objects in games and will absolutely refuse to acknowledge this post.

          Poster is implying that someone (leftist, feminist, anyone they don’t agree with) will come in here and complain about how sexual this is. Rather than expressing any genuine sentiment or opinion of their own, they assumed one for someone else, a strawman to bat at. It’s a dogwhistle, an attempt to bait out and rehash old Gamergate shit. I mean, I do have to assume because again, I cannot overstate how lazy and insincere it is to make a post like this that does not express your own opinion and implies someone else’s.

          The primary point I was trying to make with the overall post is that it’s not sex or sexuality that is the problem. Didn’t Larian release a mainstream game where you could have sex as a bear? Look, the ORIGINAL Twitter post is the model indicating how proud she is, I think we can very confidently say she does not feel like she’s being treated as a sexual object in this context and most people can see that. OP cannot distinguish the difference between sexuality in videogames and treating women as sexual objects. That’s gross and they need to sit and think on that for a LONG while, preferably before ever talking to a woman again.

            Slight quibble: in BG3 you can have sex with a bear (who is the shape shifted form of an absolutely beefcake elf druid).

            Would, and did.

            Dude, you do realize that that still has nothing to do with the comment you responded to?

            If you had made it as a top level comment of your own, it would make sense. Maybe that’s what you intended; I know I’ve fucked that up many a time.

            Again, my only issue is that what you said wasn’t connected to the comment above it, but the content of your statements.

              I thought the connection to the initial comment was made very clear. The initial comment said:

              Someone is going to make a long post about how women is being portrayed as sexual objects in games and will absolutely refuse to acknowledge this post.

              audaxreik’s initial reaction basically just berated them for saying this, but in the most recent post audaxreik explained this hostility. Loosely speaking, the initial comment was an unprovoked strawman attack against feminism - and audaxreik wanted to push back against that.

              In any case, I think the discussion here has run its course.

      Someone is going to be super triggered about a woman somewhere not liking women being portrayed as sexual objects in games and is going to post about it here

      Well just you make sure and save this post to share in the future since it obviously undermines and refutes all of those concerns from those other broads.

      And simultaneously refuse to acknowledge how men are portrayed the same way.

    I don’t personally like that kinda ass, more into the “fits in one hand” kinda booty (like my wife’s), but I gotta admire. That’s not an everyday ass. She worked hard to shape it like that, got what she wanted and is proud of it. Go girl!

        It actually is pretty fun. I can see this quickly going sour, but currently it is a much better game than Overwatch. No idea what the future holds, but hopefully NetEase can pull through. I loved Super Mecha Champions (2021-2025 RIP, you were gone too soon- Alborada my beloved), so hopefully they keep things going and don’t end this one like some of their other ones (DBD Mobile, for example).

        It does a good job of onboarding people. The general tutorial is relatively short and sweet, and character specific tutorials are even shorter. It also gives each character a rank (in stars) for how complex that character is to use effectively.

        The game itself is pretty chaotic, so it’s easy to convince yourself that your deaths are incidental, and your victories are a result of you playing well. And as long as you’re having fun you’ll be okay with that. But if at any point you start feeling like someone has your foil, just change characters mid-match and try a new tactic. There’s so many characters you can experiment until you find theirs.

        I’m genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed it.
