The one on the left isn’t attractive ‽
Not with that DEI chin of his.
That was my genuine first reaction as well. That’s a handsome older man. I could only hope to age half as well as that guy.
It’s a joke. They’re taking a dig at middle aged men who talk about dei in games.
Yikes
Do that same thing to Abby’s character and you’ll get her live action actress.
What’s a DEI chin?
The Jimquisition did a video about that ridiculous mess
Satire
Whatever you want it to mean!
If I understand correctly, DEI is a dog whistle for N-word.
No one knows. I honestly can’t believe the original post isn’t intended to point out the absurdity of these anti-DEI assholes.
The “fixed” version also looks transmasc, not that that’s a bad thing, just ironic if the post wasn’t intended to be a caricature.
what does ‘looks transmasc’ even mean
every attractive man that looks young is trans and nobody has any proof that they’re not
The “fixed” version also looks transmasc
??? Explain
I’m 95% sure it’s satire, like it’s making fun of those guys that edit pictures of female characters because they’re upset when their video game has women who look like actual people.
Yeah, I think it’s satire, likely referencing that infamous post where someone “fixed” Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn:
listerine commercial looking mf lmao
I mean, I don’t find the one on the left attractive or anything (she’s not unattractive or ugly either), but she also doesn’t have to be. She looks like a person and I can focus on what the game is trying to tell or show me. Every female character doesn’t have to be a blow-up doll or something.
Also, the one on the right looks bad. That face doesn’t fit at all. People are weird.
Exactly. But alas, the incel brain can’t comprehend that women, be they fictional or real, are people and not sex objects.
Seriously. I don’t mind attractive characters, but they’re not essential. Also, if you want attractive or sexual, go find some porn and sort yourself out. Or some adult game if it has to be a game.
I do think the one on the left looks a bit ugly, or maybe “below average” is a better way to phrase it; but why would that be a problem?
Like, your main character can look kinda meh and that OK she doesn’t need to be good-looking.
Pretty much exactly my opinion as well.
yes it is intended to point out the absurdity of anti-DEI, though its mostly intended to point out the absurdity of people thinking its woke to have real-looking people
also what does it mean to look transmasc
In this context, I believe it means ‘non-white.’
Oh you sweet sweet summer child!
“Anyone who doesn’t look like someone I’d want to fuck is ‘woke’. That’s how that word is used, right?”
and “anyone who doesn’t care about my issues but issues of some minority is woke”
That’s not Pedro.
Why do so many people here in the comments take this seriously? This is clearly satire. Joel is already good looking and the people who unironically say shit like this usually say this kind of shit about female or androgynous characters. Imo Joel also looks way better than the “non-woke” version of Joel they created.
did you know most people find people close to their own age more attractive?
anyhow i agree that that’s clearly satire
so true
Woke culture is trying to cancel handsome squidward. Don’t let them.
No DEI chin here anymore:
He’s so handsome now <3
and dont forget about being more less woke :3
2003 Josh Hartnett
Fuck I can’t tell what is satire anymore
Many such cases.
It’s satire:
It’s satire, but the ones with female characters aren’t
I mean it’s obviously satire… right?
justin shapiro is that you
That’s just Matt Bomer
