Guys, David is a fellow poster here on GAF
and is things that easy in a work place. have you ever tried changing something you dislike in a work place and had to fight with upper mangement/people above you ? on your own aswell ?
If he doesn't have the balls (oh, I am so sexist for using that expression) to criticize their own colleagues, he should shout up about everyone else who does "sexist character designs". It makes him look hypocritical.
There's nothing "worse" about it. In MGS there were always sexy ladies, it's like complaining there are Bond girls in James Bond movies. The Halo series changed devs and they could change the design if they wanted.
Has this guy ever played a MGS game? This is so fucking annoying, they are man babies themselves. Or is he also on the Anita Sarkeesian train?
I thought the girl in MGS has her clothes taken away from her when she was captured. Does she remain in a bikini throughout the game?
Yeah, holy shit.I didn't realise there was so much Cortana "adult content" out there. Thanks big fun.
As much as the Cortana design speaks for itself, and I like both Quiet and Cortana , he is right.
This industry is really trying to be progressive now, sometimes a bit reactionary at that, but Kojima's comments like that don't fly these days. In fact I'm surprised we didn't hear anyone say anything before now.
and based on real women that he gets to hang aroundHe is just jealous because Kojima`s girls are way hotter.
Agreed, hopefully they'll fix that with DLC.The pantyhose for one.
With all the gear and belts and straps worn against bare skin it's basically a parody of "female character designs in videogames" - all it's missing is high heels.
Don't post that gif man, it's pointless.
Quiet is a beauty with out the beast.nope
He has a point though. Industry has a big problem with sexualised representations of women. It's pretty out of control...
its not like David outright designed cortana, you know he probably has has no say in what she looks like in game. and if he had his way going by what hes saying she would more than likely look different.

The problem with that line of thinking is that one developer is being upfront while the other has taken part in similar actions but is still attempting to ostracize that first developer for something they both do. It's hypocritical as fuck and he should be ashamed.As I said in the other thread
First we need to solve the problem of so much emphasis on violence then we can move over to the depiction of women. And as it stands I have no problem with Kojima making his characters more erotic or not.
Just like that tweet and this thread.
Ugh.
I am so sick of these moralist slams against niche games.
Newsflash: these aren't "representative of your (precious) industry", they are the rare viewpoint of a bizzare little game for a bizzare little audience.
Let people enjoy what they want... Stop policing video game content under the guise of "furthering the medium" as you decree it.
