MM both me and my wife are pagan, moreso my wife.

personally clothes on women that others see as sexual , i don't , i see them as asthetically pleasing, being an artist myself i think i can see above the sexual in an artfrom if it involves skimpy clothes etc. i do see you point and i do agree with it in many respects, but also my tastes in aesthetics do mean i quite like to see a small amount of skimp :) of course over the top just leads to gratuity and is neither tasteful nor asthetically pleasing.

but the OP is correct most cg artists in games dont seem to have the simplest grasp of human anatomy, they either do over the top anime style boobies, or they ruin the female form in more hideous ways :S what is thier problem?

Issues...
However, if you detest of women being portayed as aluminiumbikini clad heroines, that's cool too.

But please spare us your phony arguments that a female showing skin is not "family friendly". Apparently the wholesale slaughter of creatures (humans included), the thousands of slain npc's you need under your belt to get anywhere and which permeates the genre is more "family friendly"? Right.

So even an orgy of violence and death passes under your moral radar unchallenged, but any even remotely and far fetched "sexual" content raises your alarm? I sure don't wish to live or even play in your world.

And, oh, on Tolkien, Feist, Salvatore, etc. being "classical" fantasy, one could argue that too. Authors like Robert E. Howard predate these by decades, and the worlds of Conan and his likes are filled with women who are all  (monotonously, granted) described as having firm breasts, enticing hips, flashing green eyes, cascades of red hair and seductive lips and who of course wear clothes which emphasize all that.
As far as fantasy authors are concerned you may prefer the new kids on the block, but that alone is not sufficient to make them "classic".

In closing, If skin is incompatible with your ideas of high fantasy, fine. It's perfectly in line with me, and I dare say, I'm with the majority on that one. So we all basically want, as you wrote, porn. Why, thank you, how nice of you to say that. Rest assured, I don't think I like you very much either.

Excuses are refuge of the weak.

God, Americans are so sheltered. (I am one so I can say this) The slightest glimpse of  boobies and people get on their high horse, but killing is perfectly fine. (unless your Jack Thompson) If society accepted that these things are a part of life the world would be a better place. Hell if something even hinted to sex... Be-careful! Cause it didn't actually say anything like that, but was an innuendo. I can't tell you how many times I showed something to people and then them getting so upset that there were boobies spouting off "OMG! PORNZORZ! take it away."

Personally people need to grow up. It really is that simple.

Siehst du mich
Erkennst du mich
Ganz tief in meinem Herz
ist noch ein Platz f?r dich
Ich suche dich
Ich sehne mich
nach dem was ich geliebt hab
doch ich find es nicht

I did a google fight with killing and sex as the search terms. Sex ftw! We're only hypocites in public.

Woudln't that leave just a little too much exposed skin for said critters and things you were slaying to, I dunno, cut you?
Not to mention how cold it would be in the cooler climates.


If you can convince more girls / women to play video games you might start to see that... as long as it remains an overwhelmingly male audience, the skin is going to show.

I have to agree with Salvtoris.  I play female toons on occasion because I like the view.

Untill the male vs. female players is more 50/50 then the artwork will be geared toward the "guys" that play the games.  And we like to see skin.

As for the original topic here, the characters we create in the games are either our ideals, or joke toons.  As most people make "ideal" toons then the mammaries should also be in the ideal position.  A slider for size is just fine.
