    I assume they went with malice because since she was releasing with reed They wanted to do the Maker, which is evil. Mr. Fantastic, they found evil invisible woman.

    Great video Nando! Always a pleasure watching.
    A lot of people are misunderstanding/misrepresenting what people are saying about Sue's Malice skin and some of the other alt. skins for female characters in the game. It's not a problem that they're sexy, it's not even really a problem that they're unrealistic -- the only issue is the disproportionality in the sex appeal of the male skins and female skins. Relatively few of the male hero designs/skins seem to appeal to what women find sexually appealing, and instead lean far more into a male power fantasy design philosophy. This isn't an absolute rule in he game of course -- Bast's Chosen Black Panther skin and the MCU Namor skin and a couple of the Winter Soldier skins feel like they better fit that sort of 'female gaze' philosophy. On the flip side, not too many of the female characters feel like they were necessarily designed as a female power fantasy (Wanda, Mantis, and Magik in their base forms might be some of the better examples of a kind of female power fantasy philosophy as opposed to a male sexual gaze philosophy). People enjoy playing as sexy characters, but they don't always enjoy playing as objectified characters. When a player chooses to equip the Malice skin, that isn't Sue Storm herself enjoying her own sexual liberation -- it's a real person dressing up a digital doll to best tickle their sexual curiosities. And that's fine! The only proposed changes I've heard from people talking about the Malice skin or the Psylocke skin are that male characters need comparable sexualization (visible bulges, emphasized buttocks, more diverse body types, etc.) by doing things like implementing more such skins (swimsuit edition comes to mind xD) or to design sexy female costumes with female empowerment in mind, just like how many of the male costumes already in the game are very form-fitting or even revealing while still appealing more to a male power fantasy than a female sexual gaze.
    Again, sexiness is great, the only problem is that currently it's straight male fans getting catered too the most. Is that more economically viable? Perhaps. Is that a valid artistic choice? Of course. Is it what everyone will want? No. Should people be talking about this? Why not, it's a fun and interesting subject that gets people thinking. Should people be complaining? People can and will do whatever they want forever so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    • @stevenhedge2850
      @stevenhedge2850 14 днів тому +1

      It’s a rather dumb argument because skins like malaise and the psylocke weren’t just crated by the devs. They’re actual designs from the comic history. Looks that fans would see and will go “oh my god I want that!” And spend money these skins have a history. Yes there’s another issue that females get skimpy outfits in the costume but that’s a different arguments and besides: the malice costume was actually far worst in the comics. The rivals version actually shows how twisted the moment was by adding the hints of bondage thanks to the wraps around her chest

    • @TheAMVDorf
      @TheAMVDorf 13 днів тому

      I guess, but parts of the argument fall apart when you realize there are a lot of straight women purchasing these more revealing outfits because they like feeling sexy and view it as empowering. Not to mention like you yourself said, the game does have female characters that are empowering to women who don’t find sexy characters empowering, so the game is doing both. The men are also heavily being thirsted over on social media by women, because women like dudes with handsome faces and muscles. Emphasizing the bulge or butt cheeks also isn’t really a comparable trade, since IRL men don’t usually show off their bulge or butt cheeks as opposed to women who do wear clothing that emphasizes their butt or boobs. It would come off as a lot more jarring to both men and women if the dudes start having a super emphasized bulge specifically, which is why in movies and shows made by women that sexualize men, they often highlight the muscles, face, and romantic features of the men, not the butt or bulge.

    If you want an example of a male character dressed kind of risqué, Beast fans get a lot of incidental fan service since most artists keep putting him in what is basically just spandex briefs.

    • @deathcon6261
      @deathcon6261 15 днів тому +19

      Eh while yes the Malice costume was fan service it actually served a purpose in the story. If you go back and read the story it is clear that Sue has some suppressed issues that Psycho Man uses his powers to turn against the Fantastic Four. Two of which is her repressed self esteem (calling back to the early issues of the F4 where Sue gets fan letters that say she can't be a female superhero despite Reed himself thinking of her as the strongest member) and sexual desire (which may have also been heightened by the miscarriage she recently gone through at the time).
      So yes it can provide fan service AND be used to further empathisize the story (though even the Marvel writers seemed to miss this nuance as a later story tries to retcon Malice as something wrong and alien to Susan Storm).

If Sue can have her breast float while she’s sitting and her ass jiggle while she jumps then my (and her) boy Namor should be allowed to be a slut too, give him a thong that exposes 3/4 of those cheeks, pulsating breast and shaped cake with jiggle physics over whatever shorts and square bum that his current skins with less sex appeal than a rock have now. It’s only what is true to his character. And if it makes someone uncomfortable… unpack those feelings or don’t buy it lol

    honestly I find the single hot woman body type in this game (besides the one exception of squirrel girl) to be exceptionally boring. I've had almost no prior exposure to marvel so I don't have any of the context and I'm simply going off of character design. but I like lots of types of women, not every hot woman is wide hips, big boobs and big butt! where's the petite girl love, or the muscle mommies or tall girlies?? hell, I love playing ana because a badass elderly woman who's seen it all and doesn't take any bs is cool as hell. some variety would just go a long way to making the game roster more interesting. overwatch is a great example of this and that game certainly has its share of conventionally attractive women.

    • @Mo-.
      @Mo-. 10 днів тому

      Marvel Rivals has variety though so I don’t know what the issue is. They have petite girls (Peni), girls that don’t have huge busts or butt (Scarlet Witch or Luna Snow), tall women, although not crazy tall (Psylocke). The only ones you mentioned that they don’t have is an elderly woman or a muscle mommy. And guess what? They WILL add the latter because She-Hulk is a popular Marvel character that will not be excluded from the game. And she’s a super tall muscle mommy who stands on business! They have their variety, just because Invisible Woman is a conventional, Marilyn Monroe type woman with a curvy figure, and is almost always portrayed this way in the comics too doesn’t mean that the game lacks variety. And while it is more obscure and less likely to be added in the game, powerful elderly women exist in Marvel comics too, like Madam Web for example. As a matter of fact, there’s MORE diversity for the female characters in this game than the males.
      As a guy, I don’t see anyone complaining about almost EVERY male character being super jacked or handsome, more than 80% of the male cast being so much so that many guys will struggle to achieve that physique EVEN if they used both steroids and years of weight training religiously as well as bulked and slept 10 hours a day. But you know what, I don’t mind because this is gaming and it’s a hero shooter. I’m not bothered about inclusion and I wouldn’t ask for them to try to specifically look for characters who may be very old, skinny or somewhat overweight just for the sake of inclusion. It’s better that they are comic accurate or good looking if that’s how the character is supposed to be. And I have no issue with them being more diverse or going against the trend as long as it makes sense and there’s a reason for it.
      If a character like the Blob gets added to the game, I EXPECT that he should look like an inhumanly large overweight moderator who eats too much and looks like he’s never worked out a day in his life because that’s what that character is. I’d actually be disappointed if he looked all handsome and obviously jacked. But if they make characters look too diverse for the sake of keeping people feeling good about themselves or inclusion specifically, instead of just making characters that people want or like to see, you get something like Concord and no one wants to look at that.
      Both the guys and girls in this game are meant to look hot, why does it have to be an issue for girl characters only? There’s no elderly male badass characters but that’s not an issue.
      The characters look good, there’s diversity, and that’s okay

    • @_ikako_
      @_ikako_ 10 днів тому

      ⁠​⁠​⁠@@Mo-.except that's not really the case though. peni is more mech than anything and is still just hot woman but slightly shorter, Scarlet witch is just hot woman with a bit more clothing, Luna snow is just hot woman with slightly flatter chest and psylocke is literally just another hot woman, you can't even judge her height very well in game but she seems average. my problem is that the "diversity" is just "hot woman with extra feature".
      comparing male and female representations in this type of media is not a valid comparison, men and women have entirely different roles in the patriarchy, one that favours the men and expects women to conform to specific standards and exploits them when it does. men being scantily clad has no where near the level of exploitation because women aren't the ones who are catered for primarily in media, nor are we the ones exploiting male bodies for our own gazes. it's historically been men exploiting women's bodies because men hold the dominant power position in society over women. I don't have a problem with hot women being in video games - I'm bi, I like boobs and butts as much as anyone does - I just don't want there to be one type of hot woman or only hot women.

    ---------------------------------
    She-Hulk (Duelist)
    Primary Fire: Melee combo (Duh)
    Ability 1- Debris Projectile: She-Hulk grabs a couch sized piece of the ground and tosses it at the enemy for big splash damage and slight knock back. Can throw it straight or in a slight arc if the button is held. (Similar to Squirrel Girl's squirrels)
    Ability 2 - Sprint (Short duration similar to Widow, but can cancel it into one of three moves)
    Ability 2A - Super jump
    Ability 2B - Drop Kick: Damage and knock one enemy a big distance backwards. (There's not enough "BOOPS" in this game)
    Ability 2C - Ground Slide: Damage and knock multiple enemies up into the air for follow up attacks.
    Ability 3 - "I Object!": Uses her gamma irradiated blood to sustain herself/shrug off injuries and regen health briefly.
    Ultimate Ability - "Giant Swing" Throw: Similar to Hulk's ability that grabs one character. This would grab one character by the legs and swing them around a few times in a giant arc, hitting other enemies at the same time, then throw the grabbed enemy a great distance.
