Love/hate relationship with Character Design
I’m a character designer and there’s a lot of things i absolutely love about the rivals roster but how they design the female characters just irks me especially with the newest release of the Invisible Woman. How can any of their rib cages or organs function in their absurdly exaggerated slender but big in bust/butt bodies? Would they not have back-breaking pain??
I understand that they’re superheroes or mutants— but I don’t think it’s an excuse. it’s not at all important to gameplay and doesn’t affect it, but it leaves me feeling distaste for how the designers view women. It also creates such a lack of diversity in Rivals design having all your female roster be only distinguishable by choice of outfit and skin/hair color.
