Why do developers think making characters ugly helps them sell games?

Thank Sony for the real tomb raider reboot. Ugly as fuck nu-lara btfo permanently

i know right? Why doesn't she have a chin that could substitute as a arrowhead?

>nu-Lara
>just a generic white bitch design

>Chloe
>exotic indian female

how are they ugly WTF

he is high on anime.

Where are the ugly characters in this pic?

>dev does something just for the hell of it
>"wtf why did they do this, don't they know the game won't sell"
>dev does something to help sell games
>"wtf why did they do this, don't they know their vision matters more appealing to the market"

>Lara
>ugly
kill yourself faggot

>white """"women""""
LMAO

Chloe, a half Indian-Half Australian, is whiter than Lara, a woman of pure English stock. How is that?

Half asians generally turn out good looking don't they?

...

>kill yourself faggot

Even side chick Elena is hotter than nu lara. She's ugloo accept it

The step-mother was hot.

It sells more to ugly women who like to self-insert

I don't get it either

>Dev makes monstrously ugly looking woman for Game X
>Gaming journalists, who are monstrously ugly women themselves, give the game positive light.
>People believe the journalists have no ulterior motives when they say Game X is good.
>Game X gets more sales.

It's not hard, OP.

Chole & even Nadine are not ugly, Nadine looks fine when she dressed up in the Italy level

Naughty Dog just aimed for more realism & tried to make them look "rougher" since they were in a tough environment

It was retarded how Lara looked like a 10/10 super model despite trekking through Siberia & Syria

Not really. It depends on the genetics of the parents, like it does for everyone else.

Wincest

It's just modern games that have ugly females. I personally don't really play or complete much modern these days unless on I'm bored with my 6th gen backlog of games i need to play.

yo crackas aints you sick of tryina get a jobs fo yo moms but they only be hirin black niggas?Sheeeeeit i sposeta get a home of my own and shit you feel me?

>Uncharted 4 ugly females
>10m copies sold already
>Rise of the Tomb Raider beautiful female
>tanked in all consoles

makes you think

Rise of the tomb raider sold like shit and I think has a 85 score on meta.

Explain.

...

Trying too hard

...

Or this

I was reflecting the thread.I thought we we're all shitposting.

But sometimes you get this.

>He thinks Nadine Ross is ugly

looks fine.

qts

>Why do developers think making characters ugly helps them sell games?
Those aren't "ugly" per se, but nothing to write home about either way. It's annoying that they pushed Laura into "meh" territory, but it's still miles better than what others have done...

Petty envious women and their leashed pet dog numales are everywhere these days. What can you do?

mayli asians look nice, you know the type i mean. They have that distinct look, i can't really explain it.

Nice hairline

>You Love You Lose

are you implying you wouldn't fuck the shit out of her if given the chance you sweaty little virgin?

Looks like mine.

right just looks more realistic.
you can't make a character with doll aesthetic you weebs are so fond of in a realistic game.

Post face

This is like when you pair couples in vidya to boost their best strengths.

So, unrelated pic? Even if you wanna be a fag about them, neither of them is below average-looking.

nu-Lara a cute

>it's not a cookie cutter weeb face that every single anime uses
>Sup Forums therefore says it's ugly

At this point I genuinely believe this is a meme, and not honest opinions.

which of these is supposed to be ugly?

It always bothered as to why nu Lauras head looks like a guitar pick.

...

I think Chloe is hot and that ass is the greatest thing in Uncharted. I don't see what's wrong.

it is. same with manlet posting. it's all manlets doing it, because they hate themselves.

She looks like a drag queen

Everything's a meme. You're a meme. I'm a meme.

Don't contribute to cancer

Lara looks like a 50 year old grandma, are you blind man? Look at that sodium face bloat, get some standards man

Man, the Horizon protag looks so goofy. She actually looks like a sorta ugly American teenage boy.

That was microsoft trying to make tomb raider into their uncharted, there was no hype when the ps4 version came out and nobody buys xbones

Where do you live that 50 year old grandmas look like that

Just one glance into /vg/ and the activity would be a real eye opener to you. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they're a majority of the site's activity, but they're incredibly vocal and voracious. Weeaboos will slurp up any old excrement as long as it has an anime aesthetic and fanservice. No matter how shit the game is, how hard it's regurgitated in a single year, they'll buy it without hesitation.

Here is the attention you were so desperately craving

(you)

please tell me where you're finding these legendary GILFs

Because you faggots won't shut the fuck up about it until some of us try it. Well done.

Post face, and i'll jack off

Lara is cute. Cute. CUTE. WTF!

I couldn't finish RotTR cause it in all aspects felt like the reboot. Areas looked pretty much the same, no improvements to gameplay, animations exactly the same. It was a literal copy and paste. It felt more like an expansion than anything.

Ye

>tanked in all consoles
>I pull data out of my ass
It sold 1.6 million on PC, which is usually the platform with the least amount of sales. Who knows how much more it sold on consoles.

Also, Uncharted is shit and people only play that crap either because it's a Sony exclusive or because they wanna identify themselves as games when all they actually wanna do is fuck off and watch netflix for their wonderful "cinematic" experiences.

>Rise of the Tomb Raider sold like 1 million
>The Lost Legacy will undoubtedly sell more than that
Not really proving them wrong here, user.

please post face i want to cum

Because it makes it easier for random fags to self insert.
Not everyone is a waifufag like you.

>that feel when no masochistic fit gf who just wants to be choked and beat up

Why do I even live

>they wanna identify themselves as games

Do you need to sit on a shelf ?

...

I hope you aren't saying Primal girl is good looking. Rebecca wore it better:

I WANT A GF REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

...

check your inbox

I fap to black shemales so this is fine

..

We all hate that dumb article telling us that we MUST LIKE CHLOE NOW, but saying that she isn't attractive is just being contrarian for the sake of it also known as being an edgy cunt. Literally the only flaw is the poointheloo nose.

Cheers user!

The absolute STATE of frogposting scum

not Aryan blonde = ugly

!

true

Here, take this.

Oh shit I'm FEELING IT

I think that's actually too much butt. I sincerely think so. You just turned me into an Irish man with that picture, I hope you're proud.

>that's actually too much butt

leave

>I'm gay
All you had to say

Are u a faggot right?

BRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP.

problem with the left is that it reaks of ninja theory same face

>388296356
>not wanting to be Irish

Also that girl has barely any ass, t. Irish man here

Her nose isn't even bad desu

>tfw no tomb raiding gf to cuddle with

thats a weak ass

these are literally scanned models

Rise is dogshit. The culmination of gameplay degradation. The next logical step is to have a QTE only "game".

That looks fucking awful. She looks like she shat in her pants.

So was Ellen, and i think she turned out great.

punky alt girls make me feel all funny, i prolly shouldn't like em but i du.
