Can someone explain to me why western games are so averse to long hairstyles for women?

Can someone explain to me why western games are so averse to long hairstyles for women?

Clipping.

Shitty animators

They're probably afraid it might clip through the clothes.
Plus all the programming involved to make it wavy and shit.

westerners are so dependent on "realism" for immersion that they get triggered by clipping

Western devs have awoken and realized that short hair is the superior hairstyle.

Laziness, the game your image is from doesn't even have beards for men.

give me games that allow me to have pig tails

This

It's laziness mostly

Females that look like females are prohibited.

But then again the only females in the army are short haired lesbians so whatever.

Because short hair is superior.

also it actually takes effort to animate and avoid clipping and we can't have that in a AAA game

Dykes.

This and hair physics.

It takes a ton of time and effort to program and animate long hair, or else you get clipping everywhere.

Long hair is only practical if it's going on a pre-baked model, any game with a character creator is going to be a shit-ton of work to get every long hair variant working properly.

That being said, devs could still do it, they are mostly just lazy.

Yeah, Madness Returns is still one of the only games I can think of with quality hair physics.

But a lot of times it's not cute short hair.

It would make the character look feminine when men and women are actually the same #smashpatriarchy

>video game is centered around fast paced combat
>expecting women to have long hair
???

Shame all the short-haired shit in western games is disgusting shit like pic related.
>Destiny 2
>Fast paced
Is that a joke?

Probably because it looks shit and long hair is a sign of immaturity

>not wanting long hair and anime scarves with cool physics in your fast-paced combat games

???

>females only look like females if they have long hair

how old are you, 6?

Long hair is more feminine. You're either retarded or being willfully obtuse.

Any woman in combat should never have long hair, applies to men as well.

>Long hair is more feminine

you think thats bad?
take a look at the dauntless female character creation

t. roasty

He's right. Both in males and females, longer hair is more feminine.

If you don't inherently think this, you must be a fag.

Take your sjw rhetoric and fuck off tumblrtard

Clippings fine with me though, I'd very much prefer it over half buzz cuts and bowl cuts.

Clipping doesn't benefit any art style aside from intentionally shitty ones ala Crypt Worlds.

>shit is fine with me
Good thing you're not in charge of making games

Who gives a fuck? It's a video game about space wizards.

Fuck off Pete

Pandering to mental illness

Clipping is an acceptable occurrence, when the alternative is dreadful hair styles all the time.
Even more so considering the fact that clipping hair has basically zero negative effects on the game itself.
Using your lame analogy, shit that looks good only while stationary beats out shit that doesn't ever look good.

>i pick reaper

>playimg lootcratewatch

???

Boys with long hair are cute.
So naturally it would look better one women also.

You'll hear a western game dev, programmer/ animator say.. "Long hair is EXPENSIVE"

>hair that looks good sometimes is better than hair that looks shit all the time.

can't argue with that.

Futureproofing against physics glitches and poor clipping. Wouldn't want to have the jigglebones on someone's long hair to glitch out and obstruct another player's vision, after all. Better to save yourself the effort now as a lazy AAA western dev.
