As someone who still plays this shit it was incredibly jarring to log in and see the gay little avatar I made years ago has turned in to some weird pale thing overnight. I thought they were just meant to make the map look swish.
Ty for coming to my Ted talk
 
It wasn't SBI tho. Have you read the Tweet? It's not SBI but another woke consulting group.
Fair, but honestly SBI vs "another consultant group" isn't a meaningful distinction generally. Its like complaining the crackhead and is digging through the trash again, and someone saying "oh no, its a DIFFERENT crackhead".
This might very well be true, but does it matter?

It happened in realtime, not instantly, but it was pretty disturbing to watch that cute little Mii they made you create in the original Wii Fit slowly balloon up as your weight went up over the years.

Of course, that was intentional. Nintendo wanted to shame you for being a fucking fatass. It worked, too.

I’ll be honest I opened the character creator thing like a single time 5 years ago then never payed any attention to it which I’m presuming is the case for any other man who plays it. This shit is just too ugly to ignore.

I think a lot of the wiifit thing calling people obese was because it’s calibrated solely for little Japanese bugpeople who can’t comprehend a person not being 5”3 with a narrow build.

No, it was recalibrated for American audiences. We're just all really fuckin' fat.

What really stuck in people's craw was the very-carefully hidden fact that the Wii Fit board's maximum weight limit was 250 pounds. Funniest shit in the world to have the thing say "you're too fat for me to weigh, get off the board before you break it."

These people look like they're in touch with reality.

Same. I open up the app for the day and I immediately notice there's a weirdo babyface looking thing staring me down. I now have hotdog body and tits. Good thing I never cared about the avatar customization but I hate looking at this shit
 
I'm not 100% sure on what the point of this post is, but he seems to be saying if people don't like the changes they're bigots. Not my screenshots or I'd have an archive.received_835656881941270.jpeg

I've been playing this game since it came out. Some of the outfits cost actual money and now they all look terrible. Everyone I know who plays it is furious.

They look fucking retarded now lmfao I dont even play it but if I did I would quit 🤣. I love how the only one who like it was the tranny.

Of course the tranny likes it. Now "her" avatar looks just like "she" does irl. Shapeless, big hands and likely wearing a diaper.

It’s a woman's game, they’d have to know appearance and outfits are a huge selling point to the game. They are either incredibly retarded or they want some controversy.

I'd love to know how this got the green light in the first place. An avatar update that makes you into a shapeless blob with broken cosmetics isn't going to encourage players to purchase more pokecoins. I doubt they will be fixing the older clothes. Anything that hasn't been made yet will look even worse on the shapeless torso and poopy diaper pants lower halves. And you will like it and you will buy more pokecoins.

They had to have hired some diversity and inclusivity firm that told them that the avatars needed to be more gender neutral to heal hurt tranny feels.

"Team Rocket adjacent personalities"

Reminds me of those dumbasses on Twitter who compared the Russia/Ukraine war to Marvel movies. Also imagine being retarded enough to shill the update.
 
Supposedly Pokemon Go's twitter replies are a complete mess as there is backlash to recent model changes and removing gender from the game. I don't have Twitter, so I can't see them. If someone wants to screencap them, I'd appreciate it.

As i said in the other one:

Remember that they will not stop until everything you like conforms to their standards and sensibilities.

I'm pretty sure they "modernized" the models by standardizing all of them to a default male design. More feminine is out of the question, more weight is just a matter of choice.

Also never forget that people were paid to do this.. and i don't mean as part of their overall job, but actually brought in (or contracted) specifically to do this to the avatars as designed! Yet it's still "crazy" to suggest that the ugly in gaming is intentional.. "something something complexity with 3d models something.." Even this downgrade won't be enough to save any public noticing in a mainstream place.

GF itself is so completely cucked that they took away all feminine clothing options for PCs and NPCs in newer games. Added ~50 pounds to most female NPCs, aged 90% of them up and imposed a hard ~2-3/10 face limitation on them as well. So OC a western company simply working on the IP was going to do something like this.

Also:

So they were on the list of one of these companies like i thought. Called it.

I'm confused. This can't really appeal to troons either because wouldn't they pick the hot woman character to pretend it's them? Or pooners, since they'd pick the broad shouldered man as their stand in.
No, because by having the amorphous blob be "female", they can feel better about themselves as the "female" character has the same mannish features as they do.

Look, none of this shit makes sense, a lot of double think is required to enjoy any of it, TTD.

They're all just different heads on the same hydra. I woder if it's woke diversity hires recommending these groups to the suits or if the suits themselves want to earn the woke points by inviting the devil to dinner.

I could be wrong because I'm a real woman and therefore don't think like a tranny. But I think deep down a lot of trannies know they are ugly. Outside of the Reddit/Discord hugbox reality hits their brick shaped faces like a brick. They aren't woman shaped and it drives them crazy. For some, seeing a too feminine figure on an avatar might actually take them out of the fantasy because they are constantly thinking "Why can't I look like that?". Therefore normalizing a less feminine figure in games makes trannies feel more "normal" and "feminine". We've seen a lot of this in games in the past few years. They want to erase soft femininity and sexiness. I don't think it's to make fat ugly girls feel better. I think it's to normalize a more troon-like visage.

The utter fear of letting someone see a male/female option on a character creation screen is absurd. I wonder if it's because they know male/female/nonbinary will never be enough. So if they add that third option they will need to add a fourth, fifth, sixth, seventeenth ect... If I was Niantic I'd just add nonbinary as a thrown bone and forget it. But I guess whatever woke consultant they hired had more extreme plans.
