So unrealistic it hurts, so wrong it blinds. I don't know what Soul Caliber creators were thinking... oh yes I do; "Our main audience is people who just hit puberty."

I like the concept of selecting body types... I'd love to see a pear shaped bald monk. Friar Tuck FTW!

Big tits make you fit, eh?

Anyway, yeah. Being able to select a unique body would be nice as it would set characters apart a bit more. /vote

Becoming physically ill due to nudity of anyone shows an instability that needs to be looked at by a leading physician. Or an over-exageration...

Todd McFarlane FTMFW lol

The demon slayer ninja Taki was never my favorite in the Soul series (I'm more of a Rock/Astaroth smash and ring out player) but i do love some of her character designs, particularly the player 2 blue outfit in Soul Calibur for DC.

But i digress...Taki bounces around way too much to be really effective, and her upgrade from Soul Calibur to Soul Calibur 2 with the 20lbs of fat on the chest didn't really impress me much.

Oh well....when one of your primary competitors (Dead or Alive) INVENTED the bouncing breasts physics in video games, i guess you need to match to stay or compete properly.

If Anet's Assassin looked like Taki, i think there would be a whole lot less complaints from the male demographic, sadly.

my Taki is a killer...stalker rolls ftw!!...especially against n00bs who go all verticle attacks....can't hit what you can't catch...

Asty's a badd man too, though...gotta love the ability to 3-hit kill someone...

Todd McFarlane, eh?...u a Spawn Boarder?...

I kinda think the assassins are hot, maybe I'm the only one that thinks small boobs are more attractive than big ones.

Lady Lozza · Apr 07, 2006, 06:53 AM // 06:53

OMG. It is evident to me from all the "bouncing breasts" comments that the majority of you are male. I've always thought that was the case, but you have all just confirmed it.

FYI: Breasts bouncing around HURTS, the bigger they are the more it HURTS. I've not much in the way of curves myself (10+ years of competitive gymnastics does that to you) and even I won't get on a treadmill or go for a run without a supportive bra.

As I said previously, the assassins could do with a little more meat, especially in the upperbody - muscle development ONLY - and maybe a little on the legs. However even then I've nothing against it. A lot of you obviously have no idea precisely what a chronic anorexic looks like, so I suggest you google the term and check out the images. Since I'm NOT seeing a bones drapped in skin when I look at the assassin, and I'm even seeing (OMG) muscle definition, I honestly think there is nothing wrong with the assassin, except for the hairstyles

BTW can Anet fix the male characters. I don't get turned on by pixels, but even by general standards the male characters aren't eye-candy, and I say its about time that the myself and the rest of the ladies who play this game got some eye-candy.

I know what happened, the female ritualists they have the portion of extra fat in their upper body the assassins miss

This is a fallacy in logic.

Please excuse the assasin for having a high basal metabolic rate, an exercise regime and the lifestyle of a physical fighter for burning off all the fat that men find so attractive.

its a game character, it does not have any metabolic rate or exercise regime, pointless arguement

Basically what I've learned from this thread is, a bunch of dudes and a few self concious girls want asssassins to be like rangers; heck you guys probably want some kinda of grind dance to boot too. Seriously based off of the way people in this thread act; I can only imagine how you are in real life seeing a not so curvey women walking infront of you "Holy crap she has no hips, I can't look at her, TURN AWAY!!!!"

P.S. that Elektra looks more like a porn star then an assassin.

Are you serious?!

I don't even know if you've bothered to read the thread because I'm pretty sure that I stated that being 5'6 and 105 lbs - people have always thought I AM anorexic - and the assassin is pretty much how I've looked for years until recently. She DOES look way too skinny and thats not some "self conscious, OMG look away!!!!" opinion that you seem to think people here have. As other people said, we DO have to play these characters if we'd like to when the games come out and happen to want to be able to look at the characters without thinking they need to eat a pack of chocolate donuts! No matter what her profession, she shouldnt look like she eats once a day - the ritualist SURE doesnt look skinny and underfed like the assassin does.
Most here just want her to have SOME sort of definition that makes her LOOK like a female - in my opinion, she looks asexual and barely different than the male, which would NOT be the purpose of having two genders. No, not by giving her "big breasts" and a bigger butt or what not - like others have said, some upper body definition would be nice and so would a bit of curves.

I also agree allience that the assassin does have a rigid movement but she is supposed to be an assassin - swift and stealth movement, so she might walk a little funny. Honestly, seeing her run made me laugh.

Thank you lady kesha. Nevin seems to think that we all want all the female characters to look like a strippers and porn stars. That's not the case. We just don't want them to look like underfed 12 year old boys.

I know that I don't want that type of girl in my games, but I do want a little bit (little bit) more curves in the assassin model
