I would say that it's a demoralization attempt in order to condition normal people to be attracted to stuff that we biologically know for a fact it's not attractive at all. lel

Unpopular opinions, I think Minthara has a nice face and voice and Karlach's body is hot. No pun intended.

Agree, I like Minthara. Karlach is nice, aside from the reddit talk and the pegging stuff

It's rather attractive compared to stuff like Abby from TLoU2. Aside from the scarring/ metal parts on Karlach specifically. Or the weird spikes/ wings on Tieflings.

Yeah, atleast Karlach has some resemblance to a woman. She has curves, but Abby looks like a fridge.

So "at least" is enough now? Is this what we're settling down to now? In my mind Karlach should be athletic, but beautiful, with very large breasts. Not this... This... Mediocrity.

Agreed that her body needs a bigger bossom and more curves. Heck I would say that a good chunk of her fanart online looks much better than how she looks in-game. lol

I don't mind non-human females looking alien. That's the point. Just bang Shadowheart instead

But great mod, downloaded it. And I prefer this new hairstyle too. Thank you!

Over the one they went with? :pipe-thinking:

It's less attractive. Doesn't really fit the voice or final character. Too mature & gruff looking. At least it's Caucasian though.

Whoever designed Abby has no idea what women who work out look like. Just because you work out, that doesn't mean your ***, boobs, and hips shrink down to basically nothing. I've heard people say that women bodybuilders are like that (not the hips part), but there's difference between being a bodybuilder and in a military type setting

Would it be possible to add back the rest of Karlach's hair? The half shaved look is so tired and boring now, and it also doesn't fit in a medieval setting. I like the look of her vanilla hair except for that.

Also, modern professional body-builders - both men and women - use controlled anabolic substances like artificial testosterone to beff themselves up beyond their natural limit.

If you want to see what a real natural muscular woman looks like, just look at Lean Beef Patty, she's a natural body builder.

Abby's body was apparently based on a body-builder, but she must look like a roided freak with no pelvis.
Women on roids are basically "FtM," with side effects like clitoromegaly.

It's certainly possible to edit the hair. Although I won't be doing it, I have no idea how to make that style look appealing, and I already strongly prefer the alternative I've proposed.

That's a point people I've seen play the game have joked about. "Where would she find all the steroids she would need to get that body? Is that really so important in a zombie apocalypse?"

I admit I've never played TLOU, certainly would never play TLOU2. Mushroom zombies are a bit weird but father-daughter/father-son relationships in gaming needs to appear more, in my opinion, so that's the only reason I would consider playing it.

Another reason for women not to be masculine, low bodyfat is they cant have children, no periods and etc.

Women are more attractive when they're feminine, not when they're masculine.

Muscles on a woman is not attractive.

2.5/5 - for recent western game this is amazing :toot:
It's honestly impressive how every single female romanceable character except for shadowcute looks like the most dysgenic eldritch abomination possible, almost like it's a humiliation ritual for the male players. The obsession of literally every single western RPG company to make every female character have massive wide foreheads, jaws, and chins is a fascinating thing. Thank god for mods, I would probably quit playing video games if I had to cope looking at these freakshows from vanilla. When I saw minthara's ******* gigachad chin and deep hooker voice the first time I just fell into despair. And curiously they make every single female character into a masculine melee role (Barbarian, Paladin, Fighter) except for Shadowcute. Must be a coincidence.
