She's a decent lady, just in functional practical armor instead of a fanservice chainmail bikini.

Now I'm worried about Gela, what if they strip him of the BDSM black latex from the original too.

Hi. I went to "Two Ovens" on your advice. They just opened a second location.

Well, overall it's fine, but I still thought "Kuba" was better.

What are you even talking about and how is that related to my words about the outfits of the people from the third Heroes?

I meant pizza.

Nothing to do with Heroes, I just hit quote on your message so it's clear I'm addressing you.

Heroes of Might and Magic III Remake

🤪

I'm more curious why Catherine looks so unattractive in the remake.

There you have it, modern double standards in action:

A hot fap-worthy queen becomes just a plain lady — "that's right, now she looks like a real warrior woman"

Gela gets dressed in regular attire — "nooo, don't take away his BDSM outfit with practically half his body exposed 😭"

No double standards here. A billion media with naked women already exists and properly dressed ones are in short supply, while naked men have to be gathered bit by bit. Once representation of both in mass culture is equal, happiness will follow.

Did I even advise you anything?

Because for the last 10 years or so, it's been the norm to make female characters in games ugly. Although what I see in pictures when searching for a remake of the third game is quite pretty. Just plain without cosmetics.

I'd like to argue, it doesn't hold up against common sense.

Where is this "the norm"? Thousands of games come out. They just won't sell well with ugly female characters.

Especially the "ugly" ones:

Stellar Blade

Nier: Automata

The First Descendant

Horizon Zero Dawn

Cyberpunk 2077

Even if you think of Genshin, everyone there is beautiful.

And I'm sure Revan can name a couple dozen more gachas made entirely of beautiful characters.

Well, personally, I'd be fine with a version where everyone is aesthetic, beautiful, and looks like they just stepped off a magazine cover.

And yes, I'm exactly one of those people who would be perfectly happy with the last option of chainmail panties for everyone without exception.

Yes, I later checked with you in the DB, and you replied.

I was honestly a bit taken aback that you called the generic-looking woman ugly. She's, well, perfectly ordinary. There's nothing wrong with characters who don't look like fashion models. 95% of Earth's population looks like that, and they're doing just fine.

Overall, I think there should be variety. If everyone is a stunningly handsome beauty in chainmail panties, it'll get old fast. We need all kinds of folks — pretty ones, generic ones, and sketchy ones. Then, first of all, you can appreciate characters not for their cute face but for an interesting story, and secondly, against the contrast of ordinary people, the hot hunks and beauties will stand out better.
Though I'm a terrible person — I play Bethesda games with slightly file-polished vanilla NPCs rather than fully overhauled ones; in Fallout 4, the vanilla appearance suits me completely. But Fallout 4 is great precisely because, for once, Bethesda made incredibly charismatic companions (Nicky ❤).

In general, I think there should be variety. If everyone is a stunningly handsome hunk in chainmail rags, it'll get old fast. We need all kinds of folks — pretty ones, generic ones, and sketchy ones.

I didn't say that properly dressed characters aren't needed. In Jackson's Lord of the Rings, no one is flashing tits and asses, yet in my understanding, that trilogy is beautiful in every way.

As for Catherine, it's just that the character's image has been shaped over the years — even Ubisoft themselves drew her cute for some online Heroes wank-fest. And here she's not a freak, but she just doesn't look like the familiar Katya. It's like drawing Roland or Archibald Ironfist without their little mustaches. Something's just off.

Who needs the Olden era when there are new games like Diablo 2?

Yesterday I beat the Ancients on Nightmare with my sorceress and didn't die once. Neyra, already level 68.
