The new Gears of War game doesn't have main characters that look like garbage cans with limbs and a head any more. Vegan bashing and hipster claims start rolling in.

The gears guys were huge chunky men with shit faces, some of the only normal looking people in video games. Walking trashcan? Here's the comparison .

Ugly faces, yes, chunky? NOPE. They were jacked. They were a wall of meat in a shape of a box. Which is fine, I had no problems being a wall of meat. I'm fighting underground aliens with chainsaw guns. I accepted the wall of meat. You should too.

Most of the weight and bigness was implicitly stated as being armor. The girl will look huge and chunky too.

bro, did you even look at their torse or thighs? They were big people. The armor was min. at best.

Their dumb vegan bashing is all valid criticism

Ayy lamo. I guess you don't know any healthy looking vegans. The new character designs are actually really safe looking. By safe, I mean, genetic. They just have some interesting colors. It's not all browns, gray, and black. They have some personality now.

never mind about the girl her design makes no sense if she's a soldier. But the their armor is much less built up, so it's likely they're not military, per se.

Bro, don't make "she breathes through her skin" argument. They had to keep her sex appeal. It's the same reason why there is no female super saiyans in DBZ.

Marcus flint wasn't really a traditional male power fantasy btw

I can't breath. I'm laughing too hard. So I guess you don't know what male power fantasy is? They don't have to be literally superman to be a male power fantasy.

There was a lot of characterization to him,

Are you shitting me? I played 1 and 2. I couldn't tell you anything about the character besides he is genetic badass. I been playing video games for literally 20 years now.

His drive was (the admittedly flawed damsel in distress) getting his wife back.

Genetic and boring. Also using a female character as plot device to make the character grow. Nice.

I'm so fucking worried at the state of left. This lack of discussion and echo box is what killed neocon ideology. Now you're ruining the leftist equality movements. Disgusting.

What does this have to do with ANYTHING with the left? We're not talking politics. We're talking about video game character designs.

You have to be brain dead or a child to find the original GoW characters better looking. The original characters are just boxy, gray, and look alike. They're genetic as genetic can be.

The new characters are kinda genetic themselves, but at least I can't tell the difference at glance. And they're using more than 3 colors. They look so much better now.
