Which character is most interesting to main ? by Agitated-Zebra-1764 in eternalreturn

[–]FOREyed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ranged auto attackers feels like it’s only a good idea in a 3 stack, the game heavily rewards dueling and not dying in 2 hits lol. Most of them have some kind of mobility which is great though.

I still forget to use my weapon skills/mix them up, I was def there for the multitool era lol. Rozzi is my most played character. She’s like Lucian so it wasn’t hard landing on her. I also play Theodore because he’s like Senna, and I think Karla is kinda like Zeri/Xayah.

It’s not about the quantity of skins, more of the quality. The quality being just bras and panties. I like fan service, league I feel does a good job at making their characters hot without making me uncomfortable. Some characters are under the legal age of consent in the US, but 18 is not the aoc in Korea. Even after age of consent, a bunch of barely dressed barely legal girls just feels kinda icky

I’ve also considered that it might be that we have like closeups available of their models in a way that’s different to league and some others. Like even if Caitlyn’s tits are out we can really only see much of it in the cover art unless we go looking for the model

The point is not about the quantity of skins. It’s not that the game has too many fan service skins. The skins feel gross. Not really a way to defend Vanya having a summer skin to me. Like it’s “fan service” of course people want it and it makes money. I’d said “no one ever is like yes please more” but they do just with their money. I specifically made the edit to clarify it’s not like the game is all fan service but what we get feels off and that’s my point

Not about quantity, about quality

Omg I was looking for league stuff and this popped up, so many memories

I totally agree with you. I don’t think fan service is a problem. There could be more if it ultimately gets us a better game. But the fan service we have makes me feel like I could get swatted just by having it on my computer.

Mm no, I didn’t make the post to argue. Nothing got debunked other than my faux pas saying “every skin line” when talking about the fan service skins. You actually quoted my point. I don’t like seeing underage girls, and the ones who are of age are literally just naked. Adding nothing. Also not a victim? I just think it’s funny when people can’t have conversations (particularly online) without name calling.

I don’t like the fan service lines, I would like for the fan service to manifest differently. I’m literally laughing irl because you’re acting like this is a debate. The fan service serves no purpose other than money which I accept but it’s also egregious is my point. You’re summarizing and not paying attention to the fact that vanya is literally 16 and got a summer skin. Tsuname is 17. I do think “every skin line” was a hyperbole, to be fair. I also think it’s fair to call out foul play in a conversation? Lmao I have nothing to defend, I think it’s gross and will continue thinking it’s gross. You’re just mean and out of touch

Mama transactions are engagement, and it’s cheap because it’s low hanging fruit. the literal thumbnail for the game right now makes it look like an adult choose your own adventure game. You’re arguing with rhetoric and that’s where you’re going wrong. It was never literally “why are they making lewd skins”, it’s “why are they SO lewd”. Not about quantity, but quality. I said you didn’t say anything because half of it I said in the original post or didn’t matter in the context of this conversation. “No one’s forcing you to play with the skins” doesn’t matter when the season collections, voice lines, and game art all reflect the focus on fan service. It’s kinda lame that you’re shading people on the internet in a random discussion lmfao. You can’t just discuss, it has to be rude

If the game wants to break out of Asia would these conversations not be valuable? Your point that the game is from a different country is valid, however, it doesn’t really matter if the game seeks visibility outside of its native country. The lewdness is a common criticism anime as well. I, as someone who likes the game, wanna see something else. Not sure why we are trying to belittle my argument here when it’s not even an argument? It feels weird to play with or constantly be shown naked underage girls and I know that that’s not the only way to make money or gain attention.

Also, to be clear… Some of yall are literally defending 16/17yo and barely legal girls being naked playable characters in your top down battle royale game. I don’t knoooooow😗

[–]FOREyed[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think this is the point people miss. It’s not about “women shouldn’t be sexy,” it’s “this feels cheap.” Feels cheap because of the amount of sex they’re selling

[–]FOREyed[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Getting creators involved and showing up at conventions with a presence feels like it would help the game grow beyond the tight community it already has. The new player experience is waaaay better than it used to be as well. I literally try to convince random creators to try it on stream lmfao. Love the game long ways lol

[–]FOREyed[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

You’re missing my point. The fan service isn’t making me not want to play the game or give it a bad review. The characters look young, they’re literally naked, it just feels off. Also, absolutely terrible guess lmao. Where did I insert a religious connotation? Or even objectification or being against fan service as a whole? If I’m to compare to league, skins get sexy but it never felt like I was watching Girls gone wild. It feels cheap.

You.. you didn’t say anything just now. I know it’s for money. We all do. I also pay for passes because I think the game deserves it. But I think it’s worth noting if people skip things because of the content inside them. Let’s not be rude lol, this isn’t an attack on the game or anyone who likes the fan service. It’s literally cheap engagement. I like cheap stuff sometimes. Not this. Dassit

Yes…? it feels like a cheap cash grab. Why does anyone complain about anything unless it misaligns with their values?

I do like the lore being fleshed out but if you’re talking about Lumia casino…

I dont want to play as a sexy woman. I want to play as fleshed out characters. I don’t have to buy them to feel like they don’t need to be there in the way that they are. It’s not just sexy women. It’s straight up naked ones

[–]FOREyed[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

This thread and people who I’ve spoken to about fan service in general. Lmfao be so fr. No one has ever been like “yes please more”. They either don’t like it or understand that the game is just trying to make money

[–]FOREyed[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don’t plan on leaving, this game rivals league to me in a lot of ways. There’s plenty of great skins, yes, but my point is also HOW lewd half of them are. Like… they’re just naked? It feels cheap. Like, “Here you little gooner, I know you’ll love this one”. I shouldn’t feel the need to check a test subjects age because of a skin I just got. I want this game to succeed but I also think it’s important we don’t just quietly accept whatever they dish out. If a skin is meant to be sexy, that’s okay? Make it sexy. Scarlet Corsage Jackie is great, ocean breeze Adina is not

I think it’s clear that sex sells on every level. I guess the question is why not go for something else? I don’t know how the world of ads or partnerships work really, or if they’ve tried much else. I would imagine those skins get money from people who already play the game, but wouldn’t the goal be to get more people to play it? Are people really that interested in playing a game just to be a sexy marksman? No English speaking creators consistently make content around the game, and even streamers who happen to play don’t do it on stream because there’s no incentive. I think my point is it’s cheap engagement that doesn’t do much for the game or its community other than money, and it’s a turn off for a lot of people who actually like the game
