@khs511 28 күн бұрын

@@freddyvorace9990 you can and can't. In Fable you have either a singular protagonist. Or a choice between male and female. What you can do is do some customization like change their hairstyles, makeup, tattoos. But the heroes are set and they morph according to your choices in the game. So it's definitely 100% not a character creator game but a light customization game with the added bonus of the game doing fun things with your decisions.

What is the purpose of the DF Clips channel? I subscribed when it started because I thought it would have interesting bite-sized videos about whatever piqued the interest of individual team members but was not worth a longer video for the main channel. However, as far as I can tell, the content comes only from segments of the longer DF Direct Weekly videos. That's fine, but if that's all DF Clips is, and I watch DF Direct Weekly, is there any reason for me to be subscribed to DF Clips? Does it have anything for the DF Direct Weekly viewer that the DF Direct Weekly viewer has not already enjoyed?

It's true that there was not dynamic gameplay like combat or dialogue choices featured here, but at Digital Foundry they generally focus on graphical performance, so there is actually a fair amount that they can glean even from a short clip of the character walking through different environments. If this were any other KZfaq channel I might agree with you.

Calling it now; the character begins to look 'better' in a more hollywood style of 'better looking' when they do bad things and looks worse (they they do in the trailers) when they do good. This is a reverse of the character looking evil when bad and looking good when good and is a modern political approach to say not all people who look healthy are nice people.

No, just that the character is purposely ugly. There's a lot of middle ground between this monstrosity and eve. They're uglifying things, just to mess with people at this point. It's a trend that is seen in just about everything, not just vidya and is the result of moral and cultural decay. Plus, It gets rage clicks/engagement.

What I don't understand is why it always has to be an extreme? Either extremely hyper sexualized unrealistic beauty or extremely ugly on purpose. To me it seems that there are only two movements people want you to agree on, either extreme bigoted blind right or unquestionable, no room for reason and critical thinking left.

What’s with the art direction in so many modern games? They make the characters look so androgynous. It’s unrealistic. I’m not saying everyone has to be a supermodel, as I’m not saying it’s about beauty, but the ambiguity of these modern character designs is jarring.
