What a fuck is this ridiculous bullshit?
Isn't she supposed to be in LA....The burning shores? She would die of heat exhaustion in like 2 minutes....imagine how sweaty she is....

You do realize, players can wear anything on the character right? You can have a lot of material on you in the desert as well which is part of the main game. It's a game you know, she doesnt actually feel heat exhaustion my guy.

While that's true, it's worth noting that those were mostly ugly as shit as well.

I don't see any problem, yeah, surely she is stripped off any feminine trait possible but it's a post apocalyptic world, I doubt a character living in that world would likeor care to express their sexuality via casual fashion means.

Mankind had its neckrings and plates in lips, but this looks as useless as boobarmor just colorful artsy fashion without purpose.
The clash between robots and tribal stuff really created a weird unplausible art style.
Some Helghan Samus Aran stuff would have been logical, but even less feminine, so whatever. No idea what sort of mods exist on PC- some actually meaningful protective gear?- but nude mods do, so that "problem" for some was "solved".

I bet her hair all over her body matches the hair on her head, dreadlocks and all so she has to keep it covered!....

It has nothing to do with graphics or engine of the game and more to do with different philosophy of how Japanese developers model their characters and how western developers like to model theirs.
For Japanese developers it doesn't matter if character more realistic or even using face scan they will always try to make characters pleasent to look at.
Meanwhile western developers are different.
Tess and Aloy look fine to me, like I'm not expecting a gorgeous middle aged woman in a Post-Apocalypse
And besides, Mama/Lockne is based on and played by Margaret Qualley who looks like this:

do not tempt fate do not contrain Wonder Woman's thighs do not do not
I take it you are talking about Fashion Hunter.....of which near none of Aloy costumes could make the cut.
Its not that they are ugly, they are just over designed, like the designers could have stopped a month or so earlier and you would have a much more coherent costume.

You'll be glad to know there is a pride faceprint in there (see in some picture in this thread). Not sure if it was in the main game too, but it's nice you can really delve into the 'Aloy is a lesbian' angle if you are that way inclined. Disappointed that we can't change the hair to be short and spiky or shaved though, bit of a missed opportunity they will hopefully correct in the next game.

Hi OP.
Are you a grown man?
Are you a grown man?
My first thought when seeing that bottom outfit is that I feel like I'm burning up just looking at it.
All of the outfits look pretty terrible. I guess the bottom one kinda seems like a ceremonial outfit.

Hey OP, I think you may have some issues to sort out.

I would not say nightmare , but they are certainly not beautiful. They should rehire the guy who did the designs in part 1.
I couldn't take them seriously at all in those costumes. They just look silly.
The right costume. What is that supposed to be? The left one is from part 1.

The thing is this is better than most of these nerds saying Aloy is ugly will end up with in terms of a real life partner, that isn't a body pillowOP, Aloy’s model and the Horizon 3 main armour set just leaked;

Wouldn't call it nightmare fuel, it actually gave me a good laugh. Looks like a clown.

At least the developers realized this and retroactively put an on off switch into the options to remove the headgear if you want to

Is there a Bud Light skin as well?

Because there isn't anything wrong. Some Gaffers are just horny-minded kids that need to see 38 DDD boobs bouncing everywhere on their female characters.

IDK if really paid off for HFW sales, but not only Aloy had the lower usage of all chars in the entire Genshin Impact, but in the meta/abyss(people that look into damage) as well. Was a bad choise to put into an anime game by far.
They should had choise a japanese character from Japan Studios instead of a west one.

Lets see if/when we get 3rd game in the series, how sales gonna look, maybe even we will see that expansion/dlc sales soon, but ofc we all know sex sales, so if u make main character less sexy/more ugly on purpose u can expect sales to get boost from that.
There is a reason we all love/loved tomb raider series, back in the 90s and the reboot too, and lara never looked ugly, less sexy/sexualised in reboot for sure- but not to the point of actually not being attractive
Edit: if u guys wanna have good laugh there is gaf thread about aloy's look after first HFW gameplay https://www.neogaf.com/threads/gaf-throwback-aloy-looks-a-little-off.1607288/page-17 its old/forgotten now but its pure gold ;D

I find it fascinating that several people here think that the criticism has anything to do with sex appeal.
I think it says more about you guys than anything else.
Do you really think that is the reason why people dislike her costumes? For fucks sake, look at what she is wearing.
She's dressed as a broom closet.

I forgot how Mama is beautiful. Kojima really nail.
Not only that, but DS artwork is amazing just like Metal Gear.

This is why I don’t understand why people praise this series’ art direction. It is literally the epitome of taking a bunch of styles that clash and stuffing them together. It is obviously just a technical showcase to say “look how complicated our character models” are. Straight up some of the worst character designs I’ve ever seen.
