As a straight guy, does this kinda thing annoy anyone else? She's a strong female character in video games, but just because she's a woman, designers made her a sexualized super model in skin-tight spandex. It feels pandering at best, and sexist at worst

It definitely annoys others, but in this case both characters are the same woman.

Obviously the technology for female armor is for advanced and less bulky.

Could have at least made one of them Master Chief for legit armor and bigger contrast

This guy in the image is almost as ridiculous as the woman: heโ€™s highly visible and mostly protects shoulders and head.

The joke is that both of these pictures are the same video game character. They're both Samus from the Metroid series.

Not a video game, but my personal gripe was when GitS SAC had awesome everything except for the weird out of place (and ugly tbf) outfit on MC Kusanagi.

Yeah, but I would wear skin-tight spandex if I looked like a super model, so it's pandering to me specifically and I'm fine with that.

Can't remember which one it was, but I remember a rumor when I was young, horny boy, that if you completed the game within a certain time she would be revealed naked. I tried so hard to get to that time point, but never could.

Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave has got your back. They've got full on boob window and open stomach options for both Avatars. I think even thigh window, but I can't remember.

Does anyone remember the Easter egg in the original Doom where the dancer would take off her top and bounce a little? 11 year old protist sure remembers. I'm totally failing to find any reference to this on the internet
