Trust me, if I was originally Tigress of Wu it really would have helped xD It doesn't bother me though, it tickles me, it's just called carrying on a joke ;P

To clarify though, I have no problem with her having a tiny head. That's a very small part of why this game makes me sick. It's what it represents. Gameplay wise it's a large step back from DMC (unless if whoever released the demo was completely retarded, but 99% of the time demos are accurate enough gameplay wise so I'll trust it since it coincides with what I've heard from reviews and previews and whatnot) even though it's meant to be it's successor. Story wise, it's a freaking disgrace unless if there's some major twist they've kept from absolutely everyone (including the people who've played through the whole game) which is, of course, nigh on impossible. Yeah, it looks good graphically but that doesn't matter anywhere near as much as the other two meaning the only thing this game has going for it is the sex appeal. If sex appeal can sell a game on the level this is set to be at and already is at, then it's just a massive reminder of how shit the gaming industry is and, more importantly, it's an example retards are going to follow on with.

FPSs became popular: we were swamped with FPSs. The Wii sold like a chocolate vibrator: Sony and Microsoft start working on their own waggle peripherals. Bayonetta sells like a bitch for the only reason that it's slutty (no, it isn't sexy. Sexiness has subtlety and class, things this game has none of): people are going to follow suit.

Simple. As. That.

Some have valid reasons for disliking the game, sure. The head proportion though -- what the hell, people?! It's a video game. -__- I don't see why people aren't scrambling to redo Lara Croft's waistline, every DMC female character's leg proportions, male leads' biceps, Peach's stick arms, etc.

I mean, is Bayonetta supposed to be a realistic game? Guess I missed THAT memo.

Disclaimer: Comments are not directed as you nor meant to be taken as arguments. Just my thoughts on the whole "BAYONETTA IS DEFORMED WAAAAH" trend.

Well the primary 'thing' of the game is the woman and the fact she's meant to be this perfect, sexy person, thus if people are shallow enough to care about the game to the point where they want to focus on it this much then they're obviously going to be the type of shallow person who cares about that kind of thing.

Think about the target audience for this game: People who were told she was perfect and want to watch her wiggle her fanny around the place.

What else can we expect from these people?

Lol, true. I think one of the devs said Bayonetta was the Perfect Woman?

Of course, I think he was talking mostly about the perfect woman for him personally, and meant a lot about the personality and not just how she looked.

and there is your problem. People comparing the looks of video game characters to human beings and not other video game characters.

I'm pretty sure he meant the models and designs of other video game characters.

Yes. I realise that. Read through the comments again carefully.

...who compares VG characters to human beings? You're going off in your own train of thought, as everyone here already expects stuff like this from Japanese developers.

I believe, Euphoric, it is you who needs to read the comments again carefully [/British smack talk]

Nobody has compared her to real life people. That was the point.

Though, it should probably be stated, Bayonetta isn't overdone because of how she dresses; it's everything else that makes her much worse than the rest of them.

I said people were complaining about her proportions being off and Seeker then brought up other Jap video game characters, clearly insinuating that she is the same as all of them. Draw whatever conclusion you want from that, but what he said meant people should be remembering that all Jap video game characters have funny proportions; To which I replied the problem is they aren't and think she should look like a perfectly proportioned person, which is, as you've both already agreed with, pretty ridiculous in this instance.

Correction. I was replying to th overblown reaction to such a trivial issue and how it's nothing (subtle), (especially compared to other oversexed characters (DoA chicks? NG's Rachel??? Anyone??????), then YOU come along and try to convince me how it's actually a big deal.

...where you came up with this whole "comparing characters to actual people" is beyond me.

which is, as you've both already agreed with, pretty ridiculous in this instance.

...eh, no I didn't? In fact, this whole thing you're desperately trying to convince ME of couldn't be any more trivial.

I think people are mostly complaining/lol'ing at the fact that the devs are trying so hard to convince gamers that Bayonetta is this perfect, sexy, desirable woman (Bayonetta's scantily clad outfits, stripping her naked during gameplay, the multiple in-game crotch shots, her innuendo-filled talk, etc) when she's actually kinda weird to look at.
The devs have intentionally made Bayonetta's appearance over the top, while at the same time trying to prove that she's the epitome of sex appeal. Which makes her bizarre to look at.

And seeker, not once have I said it's a big deal.

Of course, you're not "most people" since you're not overusing the word "disproportioned" and have been going on about how incredibly ridiculous she looks. Actually I think that was pretty much the reason why you went off rail with my comment. Here I am talking about her being half naked and you come in with the head thing again. And you keep pushing the subject over and over even though I clearly don't care about any of it.

Nothing. If she had tiny breasts and a tiny ass her head would still be stupid because of how tall she is. Stop being dense

Stop trying to turn around what I said to suit your own argument

the main problem is she is so tall. if she was normal height of a woman, it wouldnt stick out as bad, but as is her legs and torso are stretched which makes her head look smaller.

It's like talking to Final Blade, only there's no fanboy in there, just complete and utter dense stupidity.

Enjoy your ignorance.

Read Miss Razz's post above this. See where she mentions the devs trying to pass the character off as representative of the perfect woman. There's your comparison to real people. That's the problem and why people are making a big deal about it. How being able to understand that makes a person dense or ignorant is a little beyond me. It's a pretty simple concept that you two have convoluted and confused beyond recognition.

You talking about me??? Seriously??????? Didn't I make myself clear the last couple of times that I was not even talking about that????

i think he meant me and Tiger. which is funny considering she is STILL taller than an average woman.
