Dont know about you but im extremely tired of the stereotypical female companions that lbioware have given us. Its a sign of the times i guess when you see half starved anorexic characters running around your computer screens, its a great image to give the younger and more impressionable parts of this community.

 

I doubt some of these girls would even have the strength to walk let alone carry a blaster or rifle! Vette and Mako are a good example of what i mean. So come on Bioware sort it out! Skinny and Anorexic is not sexy or appealing!

Actually, that is a stated opinion... and it is by all means your right to state it. However, personally I think characters like Mako, Kira, and Sentele are very sexy women in game in my opinion. And this part here: its a great image to give the younger and more impressionable parts of this community., is not true at all because I'm 34 and like what I've seen so far

I'm sorry, being a male, i think the women are attractive (without sounding like a perv). I don't think they're anorexic, i may be wrong, but they look as if they are in perfect health.

I'd have to agree with you. It's BW though so that's what you're gonna get, that's how they see and want women in their games.

So make fat chicks running around?

 

They are fine where they are at.

I have no problem with the current female companions as they are but I would love to see some curvy-er female companions in the future.

I think he has a valid point, put some chubby companions in there just for the hell of it.

Hm... personally I dont like too skinny either... but I do not perceive Mako or Vette as aneurexic... they look perfectly fine to me?

Yeah, chubby chasers have rights too!!

Here's a brainfart:

Make companions 'sizeable': Thin, Normal, Wide. or something like that, maybe worded differently.

Not to mention the ridiculous size of breasts in the "athletic" number 2 option in body types.

 

I give up in Bioware games all along by now.

 

First thing my wife told me when I asked her assistance in creating female character, she said "what are those baloons? Its silly that every female options are pretty faces, and big *** and ****"

 

All I could say was... "its Bioware, remember dragon age?"

Yeah! maybe make a little cutscene in there where you order your companion to eat 5 cakes and see them get fatter, or order them on a diet and give that cutscene the 'eye of the tiger' song.

I have to agree with the sentiments of the OP, and there is room to accommodate his wish - if you look at the companion character sheet, there is room for another customization item already. Just make that one a generic body type selector item and allow people to purchase one of 4 options to apply to your companion. Of course, a Maco with a type 4 body, or a Blizz for that matter, might be a little odd looking in-game.

i actually lol'ed. thanks )

Honestly think they are perfect as is. They are a healthy size.

OP is right, children of today need to know that being large/obese is ok!

 

 

Throw in some supersize companions, and call them curvy

Mako seems to be using the 1st character model which has been called borderline anorexic before. At least she has a perfectly round *** though (I think that's where all her fat is going).

 

And I know sometimes it must be hard to consider from a geek's perspective but there's an uncharted line between both 'fat' and 'skinny'.

The 'large' female model for this game looks and probably would be (if applied in real life) much healthier than the skinny model.

when you see half starved anorexic characters running around

 

Last time I visited my ship, the droid said something like "I've reduced the crew's caloric intake. Some of them were starting to look a bit thick"

 

That's why they are the way they are....

Most of the models (male and female) in SWTOR look fairly athletic, half-starved isn't really how I'd describe them, except maybe body type 1's.

 

 

Fact is if your not fat and athletic you will look like that, that is realism. The reality is most westerners are now seriously overweight.

All we didn't need here is real women from Eddie Murphy show: " What have you done for me lately?" "Half!"

p.s.

Have nothing against more fat on the female models type I and II are look sick , type 3 or 4 looks better but I prefer more round stout girls maybe type 5 or 6 will be fine.

if you think mako looks unhealthy then LMAO.

 

yeah, its better to be overweight. let us further promote the north american obesity problem.

 

mako not a "real woman" as the OP suggests? id probably kill myself if "real women" were chubby fat chicks, thankfully, this is not the case.

Body type IV is sexy.

Well spoke words. There is a MAJOR problem in the USA. If you watched Doctor Oz yesterday would have seen it.

 

The largest character are males. But look at them they are about 250 LBS. That is not a good weight but is the size of Linebacker.

 

Bioware is trying to keep the characters healthy size. Now I do agree that model 1 for male and female is too thin.

Mako and Vette are just "skinny". Which fits, considering the way they lived.
