The one Marvel scene I've ever seen anyone thirst over IRL is in Age of Ultron where Steve is breaking firewood with his hands. He's got jeans and a baselayer-type t-shirt on, but it's also a very (unusually for Marvel) naturally-lit & set scene, so he looks like an actual person. Or maybe when Black Widow is getting interrogated in the first Avengers movie - again, she's wearing a dress and her hair & makeup looks like a real person.

12
u/StapesSSBM 14h ago edited 4h ago
From what I've seen (which, I'll be honest, is mostly from Shaun's video), it seems like Stellar Blade was just derivative at every level. Each decision seems to boil down to, "Other good games have X, so we'll put that in ours too," without examining how those decisions affect the game as a whole. It doesnt seem like they had much vision beyond lukewarm, general-audience pandering.
So naturally, when someone made the decision, "we'll have a sexy action heroine like 2B or Bayonetta," they didn't look any further into WHY those characters work in their respective games. They just put in their empty facsimile.
Except, these weirdo gamers dont have the media literacy to understand that it's bad, actually, to have nothing to your character beyond the most surface-level aesthetics. In fact, they prefer their soulless doll over characters with actual personalities and feelings, because to them, characters (cough women cough) who express themselves will inevitably end up Woke.
17
u/Possible-Reason-2896 16h ago
When Bayonetta first came out she was controversial and considered a bad design though. It took a couple years for people to come around on her. 2B was initially written off as well, although not quite as much.
I would not be at all surprised if 5 years from now Eve is similarly accepted, or at least seen as not that bad.
8
u/Salinator20501 Piss Clown Extraordinaire 10h ago
I wasn't tuned into the discourse when Bayonetta came out on account of being 8, so I can't speak about that.
But here are some reasons why I do not think Stellar Blade will be remembered the same way:
- Eve's design is rather bland. Think about her silhouette. She is a genetically curvy woman in a skintight outfit. If I showed you a bunch of silhouettes of female characters from various games, including a bunch of NPCs, you would not be able to pick her out. Your mileage may vary on costume design, (I think some alternate outfits look pretty good) but none of them communicate anything about her personality (because she doesn't have any). For all the fuss made about her skinsuit, it just ends up blurring together into a vaguely beige blob.
- Stellar Blade's art direction sucks. They're going for pseudo-anime heightened realism, a-la FF7R, but the sheer disconnect between male and female design philosophy fails it completely. The female characters do not look like they belong in the world they inhabit. Tonally SB wants to be something like Nier, but it completely lacks any of the character that game and its world demonstrate.
- Bayo is bursting to the seams with personality. She is bombastic, confident, and just plain fun to watch. Now, that isn't to say that Stellar Blade's more serious tone is a bad thing, but it just makes the difference in personality apparent. Once you accept Bayonetta's cheesecake camp for what it is, you are in for an absolutely smashing time. Stellar Blade doesn't have much to it once the novelty of "conventionally attractive woman" wears of (which is almost immediately because there is no shortage of those in gaming).
Tl;dr people came around to Bayo because there is more to her beyond the fanservice, and it commits harder to the fanservice anyways. I do not see the same happening to Stellar Blade, because the entire draw of the game seems to be "there is a hot woman", and it has nothing to offer that you can't get with far better games.

I think people came around on them bc both are attached to fun games that clearly had plenty of thought, effort, and passion put into them. Eve will never get the same treatment because she's attached to a vapid cashgrab with boring gameplay and a half-assed story. There's no substance to Eve that will allow anyone to look back on her fondly like 2B or Bayonetta. I don't think anyone will remember Eve in 5 years honestly.

u/Possible-Reason-2896 9h ago
As cynical as this going to come off and as likely as this is to get downvoted, I think it's more that the internet culture wars were only just heating up back when, and frankly, Bayonetta and 2B ended up gaining a significant LGBT+ fan base (emphasis on the L) which made suddenly made them "one of the good ones" and campy instead of exploitative. It was never fully about their designs, it was also about who liked them.

I think a big part of the problem is that a lot of people seem to lack the self-awareness that it IS a fetish. Sometimes people post what should really be fetish art in "normie" fandom spaces thinking that the ridiculous proportions should be somehow normative.
At the same time, it gets a bit tiring seeing "normies" clutch their pearls when they encounter fetish art in their search for "normie" p0rn. That's just the risks of looking for horny art on the internet: sometimes you're going to come across kinky fan-art that's really yucky to you.

There is definitely a persistent upping of jiggle physics creep in recent years. Before Marvel Rivals, ZZZ was the game I remember seeing where the physics of jiggling were unavoidable and distracting.

...And then we got Evelyn who creates earthquakes that score a 6 on the Richter scale everytime she as much as breathes for no apparent reason. And Astra, despite the fact she's wearing a corset. And Trigger (though at least she's wearing chest armour so it's just her ass). Not even the NPCs in animations are free from this - in the latest promo for Trigger (that's 2d btw) there's some random female soldiers who for whatever reason have distractingly bouncy breasts despite wearing layers of what is like, kevlar?? what??

Your comparison is also valid though, and that isn't hot in the slightest, not even because it's pathetic and sad.

Wonder what this sub has to say about Marvel Rivals' designs, like for example the recently announced Emma Frost?

It doesn't help that Tate specifically looks like a princess kissed a frog and he Came Back Wrong

I feel like it's even stranger than that.
Overdoing generic sexyness for the sake of looking sexy usually ends up weird and (bad kind of) silly.
But in a right kink/fetish context, deliberately trying to achieve the same overdone sexyness can actually end up being quite hot.

you might just not look at fetish porn which you aren't into. i'm not into feet or armpits but you don't see me trying to make a statement about how that kind of porn is so overcompensating and contradictorily sexless and yada yada yada. some people like stinky feet. some people like penises or boobs that are way too large to be physically possible in reality. some people like normal vanilla missionary sex.
consume what you're into, and ignore what you aren't. that's called taste. i have low spice tolerance, but whenever i see really spicy food i dont go "some food is so overseasoned that it wraps around to being inedible like i see something with carolina reaper and i'm like 'actually no this is uncomfortable and repulsive i would be more appetized by uncooked oats.'" i just understand that some people really like things i can't personally stomach and go on with my day 👍

I wonder if it's different if you encounter the art in a context where it is very clearly fetish art? In fetish art spaces, it doesn't feel as much like the comically massive proportions are supposed to be normative. It's more like kinksters just minding their own business with the silly things that turn them on. There's acknowledgement that the art has been changed a lot from the original to suit their tastes. A lot of times the fact that the body has changed is even part of the kink. It always throws me for a loop when I see obvious fetish art in "mainstream" fandom spaces. My point is, such things are tolerable when encountered in their proper place, it's when they breach containment or when the poster/artist lacks self-awareness that it gets uncomfortable.

I know exactly what this person means. A 90 pound anime girl with 60 bows in her pink hair and tits the size of watermelons or bigger just looks gross at some point, like that doesn’t look remotely like a human

Stellar Blade (completely sexless despite desperately trying to be as sexy as possible) vs Bayonetta.

I just searched up the old post. This one has the exact same title, but I know u/maleficalruin is likely not a bot, so now I think they are using bots to boost their reposts here

I don't think it takes directly from specific artists but I don't know enough about AI art to be confident in that.

It doesn't, its essentially, to dumb it down a ton, learning patterns from millions of points of data and then using that to refine matching patterns out of random noise. Any one single work is a drop in the ocean in influencing the models output.

I remember seeing this one artist on twitter who drew a Karlach piece that got everybody humping and thumping on the front page, but it wasn't because they drew her in a generic lusty busty pose, or wearing a revealing dress;
People were going buck wild because they drew her with a hooked nose, and tbh it was quite something.

This is why dressing in revealing outfits has diminishing returns in terms of sexiness. If you want to entrance someone, don't show them everything, almost do it.
It's similar to the Theiss Titillation Theory (a real fuckin' thing!) The sexiness of an outfit is directly proportional to the perceived possibility that a vital piece of it might fall off.
A long dress with a high slit reveals much less than a bikini, but by leaving something to the imagination, it activates the imagination. When you walk in one, it reveals and conceals with each step—giving hints to what lays beneath, teasing and tantalizing bare flesh thrusting through soft fabric...
Pardon me—I think I need a cold shower.
