lol this thread still going? What more have we got left to say about Jora's boobs? Are they big? You bet. Are they soft? I have no idea. Will they bouce up and down? Perhaps. Will she let them out for the lads? I highly doubt it.

Like the above poster said, Boobs = sell, Boobs in game = more sell. Denied it however you want. You know it and I know it, you like big boobs and you cannot lie!

You know what made that REALLY funny?

Underneath the commic there was a Darkfall banner that had one of them barbarian looking women with the two-peice animal skins that fit on tight.

They didn't tailor it for you, they tailored it for the vast majority of their customers--who tend to be young adult males. While it's true that that particular demographic is more susceptible to this sort of marketing, that doesn't make breasts themselves an awful and shameful thing, and it's not bad to draw attention to them, either.

I'm sorry that you're offended by a very basic part of human anatomy, but it's honestly not something to be offended over--they're just breasts.

Someone already said it but I thought of it before I read that post so I might as well post one like it too.

People are complaining that Jora's...attributes? She's to tall, boobs are too big, wtf why is she 9ft. Get some more girls on this team..well...Norn ARN'T HUMAN!

Omg look at my dog. His legs are so short! Why arnt his legs like mine! *RANTS TO GOD*

They arnt human. So guess what? When Anet puts double D's on the char no ones going to say a damn thing. Y'know why? Because char are ugly as hell! Anyway my point is, Norn arnt human, her attributes can be whatever they want. Elfs have longer ears, Asura are really small, Trolls are really mean, Norns have gigantic boobies.

Thats just the way it is

Ehh, but it is still pretty softcore compared to most fantasy games.







Now there are some boobs.

I think the people who like the concept art version just wouldn't mind seeing a giant and muscular, nearly-topless Cate Blanchett (Galadriel in the Lord of the Rings movies) running around fighting stuff, which would admittedly work for me.
, , and funnily,
In sum, the in-game hero looks better to me than does the marketing art, though.

I wonder if this is what they mean by being able to "customize your existing character's look."

Im sorry that you misunderstood me. The breasts themselves dont offend me. Its what they are masking.
