They likely just wanted a certain type of character and the actress is just that, an actress acting that cg character. The intent was clearly not scanning and using her likeness 1:1, it's not intended to be the same approach as death stranding. What a cumbersome discussion.
Let's be honest, most of the people bitching about it aren't going to be able to point to a technical fault or anything, because that's not their problem. They're just pissy they can't get their dicks hard because they're looking at female characters who weren't designed with male gaze at the forefront of their designs. It…
Recommend going through this thread, https://www.neogaf.com/threads/star-wars-outlaws-main-character-already-hit-with-criticism-due-to-ubisoft-changing-actress-apperance.1669385/ While some of the comments may come across as insulting or trolling, its a good way to understand about appeal and why this character isn't quite…
The character doesn't really look a ton like the scan, but I think the character looks fine-- I like the character's vibe, which fits right in with the retro futurism of starwars-- and not really sure how you can "disagree" with a chin cleft. People have them, they exist. It's just a choice. Idk. I try not to read much…
Also that fable screenshot is VERY misleading. Like, the worst possible moment, which definitely doesn't look good, but even in a short trailer, there are moments that look very well done.
Wha?? Am I in the minority in thinking the character looks great!? I especially like her hair. It immediately gave off 70's Farrah Fawcett vibes, which would fit into the era of the original trilogy, but still looks modern and fresh. Don't know if that was intentional on their part, but felt like a cool design detail to…
With Kay and her pet being obvious riffs on the original characters (Hannah Solo and Nibble-bacca? :P) I wouldn't be surprised if it was a way for lucasfilm/ubisoft to have their cake and eat it too. I suspect that disney/lucasfilm would be extremely protective of licensing the Harrison Ford/Han Solo ip (or any of the…
I really feel that this is where they dropped the ball on this one, like people are photoshopping the actors face on the model and asking why didn't you just do this? It would be interesting to learn more about their decision making process. So far Ubisoft hasn't claimed artistic interpretation on Kay, though that is…
Have you ever considered that perhaps the devs simply wanted to make the character this way just because they can? No one ever said they had to make a fictional made-up character an exact or even close likeness to whatever sources they used. Just a thought.
I'm going to try my best and engage with some of the things posed in a good faith manner, even though these conversations tend to be kind of exhausting and go in circles. So just to get it out of the way here is how I generally feel about these conversations: Regarding appeal: It's one of those things that is ultimately…
