Gaming When your fav has the worst design ever...
Context: Dia Elias - The First Descendant
[SPOILERS]
She and her mother were both kidnapped and tortured. Her mom escaped captivity, but she became a brainwashed killing machine for the main villain. She gets rescued by her mom, she goes into a coma. She awakens, slowly regains her lost memories, and undergoes training to become a descendant - where it's revealed she's a clone, and she mercy kills her original self.
[SPOILERS]
I waited for her to be playable since the game's launch. I even pondered how her Descendant outfit would look - maybe a knight in sci-fi armor motif, it would've fit her gameplay style, and her protective nature towards her mother. And then, they revealed how her default base design looked...
-The entire back half of the outfit is just a bare thong, and the legs are cut all the way down to the back of the calves...
-It has a thigh and hip widow gap for no reason, and the top and bottom are separated weirdly just to show off her side/under breast and back...
-The top half has a useless hoodie and mask you can't even wear...
Her Arche powers are ice based, and she's ment to be a melee Gunlancer, but has no protection on her whatsoever... It's not even sexy, its just dumb... š

Imagine trying to be a knock off warframe for gooners only to be less sexy than Warframe's biomechanical demigods, while also being the worse game gameplay-wise.

It's actually funny when the design is SO bad and SO sexualized that it wraps back around to being unattractive

Yeah, this is why I got bored and quit TFD myself. The gameplay got super boring, and the characters left nothing to the imagination. They forgot that sometimes less is more...

Aa someone who had over 1k hours on this game this is partially why I quit. I literally felt embarrassed to be in my mid twenties playing something with no substance and was all tittilation for gooners. Between that and the lackluster ass story I just took my ass back to warframe im glad I didn't look back.

u/AshamedIncrease6942 23h ago
I meanā¦Warframe is also super horny. But it also has substance, so I get what you mean.

u/Front_Confection_487 21h ago
Thats fair but the first descendant as a whole really lacks any form of visual identity, if you showed stock footage of it you'd never be able to tell what game it is, its super pervasive from the art style of the descendants to even the vulgus.

u/Schwarzkapuze 16h ago
To be fair, the horny in Warframe is optional for the most part. And even stuff like wisp you can just slap a cape on her and not be distracted.

u/ninjaraider12 1d ago
what is going on here? they tried so hard to make her look sexy by removing fabric from random parts of her body in her design. first descendant must be really fucking desperate because i've never seen a more desperate call for people to buy this character or whatever.
the design is genuinely ass(also for an ice based character there's a lack of anything in her design that tells you she controls ice)

I always āloveā these designs because the moment you think about them is the moment you realize āwho in their right mind would think this outfit is a remotely good ideaā. Iām sure there is some bullshit explanation as always as to why they canāt be harmed by bullets, anything with a sharp edge, butter knives, and a handful of rusty nails tied to a baseball bat but in practicality who in-universe went,
āThis is a great idea! We made sure that the latex was the cheapest on the market! So cheap we forgot to make the rest of the outfit. Youāll be fine.ā

u/Junior_Ground6590 22h ago
I don't mind it.
Like where there is skin I'd rather it just be an alternating color to be more visually appealing. It looks like they tried to cater too hard to gooners, but I wouldn't put this in hated design territory.
Definitely not saying its a good design, but like not in my hate category. Solid D-

Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.

Iāve been seeing this design everywhere. What is this supposed to be?
1
u/BambiLesbiEnban 1d ago
That's Ashley Graves from the game The Coffin of Andy and Leyley: one of the most top-rated games on Steam. It's description is as follows:
Walk-n-talk adventure with light puzzling. Brother and sister practice cannibalism after witnessing a botched satanic ritual.

u/Your_Average_Haunter 1d ago
Are we forgetting the fact that the whole game is one big incest party?
1
u/BambiLesbiEnban 23h ago edited 23h ago
But no, it isn't. There's just one ending where incest happens, so far, and it's extremely abusive and you're meant to hate that ending. But yeah the point of the game isn't that
1
u/AntiqueBrick7490 17h ago
Except it is the whole point of the game, which is a good thing. I will always praise media like tcoaal for taking risky, taboo things and using it to create meaningful messages. The game is about toxic family dynamics first and foremost, and it uses incest as a very powerful way of conveying it.
1
u/AntiqueBrick7490 17h ago
TCOAAL is first and foremost, a story about toxic family dynamics. Incest is a very powerful plot device the game uses to explore that theme.
Simply reducing the game to just "oh ma god freaky inzezt" is pretty disingenous, especially if you never played the game. I highly recommend you try it out.

u/ArmandoLOG777 1d ago
Isnāt there incest in that game though? Thatās what Iāve read in reviews
0
u/BambiLesbiEnban 1d ago
In the very abusive ending, yes. Though there may be a more healthy incestual dynamic in one of the endings that's currently under development. One ending of episode 2 points towards its version of episode 3 being a healthier incest at least

u/ArmandoLOG777 23h ago
Iām sorry but I just donāt really find myself messing with that type of incest stuff, I donāt know if Iāll be playing that

u/BambiLesbiEnban 23h ago
That's okay. There are a few endings without any incest! Not that I'm saying you must play it you know. It's up to you ofc ^_^

Bro I thought that was skin colored pants and thought "yeah, kinda weird" but then I realized that that's her actual skin š I don't mind characters made for groomers, but can they at least make it look good?? This doesn't even look sexy, it looks absolutely ridiculous.

As a guy that genuinely enjoyed playing First Descendant, I had to stop because of the absurd amount of recent skins released to draw in the gooner crowd. The recent contest skin that got disqualified was the worst offender, and everyone wanted it

u/Virus-900 14h ago
I keep saying it, that when you design an outfit to be sexy, there's a point it becomes so sexualized and impractical it becomes unsexy.
