That is my personal opinion, which is just that...other people might like the older character design better. Whether full clothes fits her "better" is up to the opinions of each. Playing the "sexist" card, however, is unwarranted; a double standard at best.

This happens too often nowadays, but I'll leave further examples for a different forum.
I'll leave it at that.


Quoting For Truth.

Fact is women like to feel sexy just as much as men like to feel badass, as such the original art wasn't just pandering to drooling male gamers but also to an assumed "standard" (or "stereotype") which is just as likely to not apply to your specific case for men and women alike (at leas *I* can't identify with mr. Hulk on the cover art).

But for some reason the female case is sexist while the male isn't, double standards much?

* as usual this is imho (unless stated otherwise); feel free to disagree, ignore or try to change my mind. Agreeing with me is ofc also allowed, but makes for much worse flamewarsarguments.

It is a full moon night and ... bèèè! ... the Weresheep are out...
