Female form appreciation

[Gengisgame]

Beyond that though...
Liked to be able to choose gender in Dragon age and Mass effect, but the form had little to do with my choices there. Heck, went for Merrill and Tali in those two (most memorable romances for me) and neither was exactly chosen for their form, so theat didn't enhance gameplay.

I think a large part of Talis appeal was her voice and attitude but just in case you forgot

how she looked didn't hurt either

Hear hear.
There is plenty of barbie-like models in gaming, but proper looking bossomy female characters? Not so much.

People act like every other female character is stacked like mid series Tomb Raider, that would probably be the ratio if I could get away with it, I like variety but personnel preference is personnel preference.

Injustice did Justice to the dynamic design of heroes/villains

Injustice, and NetherRealm in general, have some of the most awful, uncanny valley-dwelling "sexy" characters of recent years, imo.

Personally, I'm a big fan of sexy designs when they fit the character in question. Example:

Spoiler: Awful, Awful, Fantastic

I can appreciate good art with bad design, which seems to sum up a lot of entries in this thread. Characters can be sexy without looking like they just survived an explosion in a lace factory.

Obligatory:

Personally, I'm a big fan of sexy designs when they fit the character in question. Example:

Obviously that works, sexy as personality along with the look but sexy can work well with different things, superheroes for example are suppose to be dynamic and powerful, artists use dynamite bodies to bring that across, Kevin Sorbo and Lucy Lawless where the leads over there smaller sidekicks for a reason.

Always feel like I'm obligated to post a pic when i reply in this thread.

Upcoming game Sacrilegium I just heard about recently, hope it's good, anyway here's the female protagonist.

Guilty Gear XRD has amazing graphics, and everyone looks great, but my favorite char(design wise) is Millia Rage, i really like the yellow/orange and black color palette, and i really like the new design she got for Xrd

Spoiler: in-game Gif

This one's not in-game, but i really like her design

In terms of just ladies from games?
I think most of the ones I find worth mentioning aren't especially new.

Elizabeth (BioShock Infinite)

Sodina Dawnfried (Thousand Arms)

Iris (MegaMan X4)

Elhaym "Elly" Van Houten (Xenogears)

Zoey (Left 4 Dead)

Lara Croft (modern 2013 version)

^You can probably spot a pattern there.

Runemistress Jeane (Suikoden series, Suikoden IV especially)

Morrigan Aensland (Darkstalkers)

Outside video games:

Felicia Hardy - the Black Cat (Marvel Comics)

Like half the main cast of The Legend Of Korra....
Asami Sato:

Opal Beifong & Jinora:

Avatar Korra herself:

Quorra (Tron Legacy):

Was going to post just post a pic of the new Overwatch character but I say a link on the page for this game called Scarlet Blade so they go up as well.

She's got big guns

When it comes to appreciating the female form, very few games come close to the perfection that is X-Com: Enemy Unknown.

Partially because of hilariously bulky the males are, but more importantly because women in X-Com are feminine, without being eye candy.

 

[Paragon Fury]

I do love me some Helena Douglas though. And that accent.

 

[aozgolo]

Runemistress Jean (Suikoden series, Suikoden II especially)

You sir, Win the thread! Runemistress Jean for President!

 

[Ieyke]

Jeane FTW.
Yea, it's hard not to win with Jeane in any of her forms.

Hard to beat a seemingly immortal Rune Sage who bears what appears to be the universe's only Charm Rune...

Also, you made me realize I forgot the 'e' at the end of "Jeane", and put "II" instead of "IV". >_<
Derp.

No but seriously guys, I'm disappointed at the very few mentions of this character:

Morrigan Aensland (Darkstalkers)

LOOK OUT MISS! YOU HAVE A BAT ON YOUR HEAD! *whack*

No but seriously guys, I'm disappointed at the very few mentions of this character:

...that's because there's nothing really attractive about her.


I'd love to contribute, but I can't find any official art of Katt from Breath of Fire II.

Smh at this. So much shit taste.

"Not attracted to deformed women in ugly gimp suits" is not "Shit taste"

 

[Olympion]

it seems Xenoblade Chronicles X by Monolith Soft will certainly feature its fair share of fanservice:

I normally wouldn't post in a thread like this but I do like the female form and think they do have their place in the medium.

Here's what most of you missed by not buying Anarchy Reigns/Max Anarchy (and why a PC port would be a good idea) For new games I can only think of Overwatch characters which have already been posted.
