The Volleyball Spinoff games already did the credibility damage years ago.

Doesn't matter if the fighting gameplay is legit, to the uninformed bystander DoA is whack off material so no difference if boobs on "OMG" or "Natural" at this point. Just hope there are less drone minded people in the future is all we can do.

Which always confused me. Tekken and soul calibur are are far worse offenders when it comes to sex appeal.

I think what d3v is trying to say is that there's a time and place for everything. If you want to make a video showing off the ladies' candystores in seashell bikinis with OMG mode then great go right on ahead. But if you're trying to help newcomers with a character tutorial or show off a really intense and enjoyable match just maybe be cognizant of the fact that having OMG mode on or fighting in a thong bikini may actually be detrimental and takes away from your hard work.

Look at Momiji's new outfit, then spin around and tell me that again with a straight face.

"New" outfit?

First, Mileena in MK already did.that outfit. While revealing more.

Secondly, in Sc4, ivy alone shows more skin than that, while having a curvier body and being blatantly sexual, with taki being nude with what amounts to red bodypaint, with visible nipples and cameltoe. Doa ain't got shit on other.fighters. its tame in comparison.

Other.fighters.can't do a beach game because it would be a blatant orgy. The DOA girls just kick back and play games.

Because DOA did it's best to actually point that shit out ever since the home ports of DOA1 featured the option for breast physics.

Well, DoA was the front runner, when it came to sexualisation in video games. And I always thought, they did a very good job with that and it was done classy. Which changed with DoA Xtreme 2. That game was Xtremely dumb and Xtremely slutty at the same time. The girls pole dancing in basicly tooth floss, really?!
Soul Calibur soon jumped on the bandwagon and it too did it really well (did you know that Astaroth's man boobs jiggled in the original Soul Calibur game? XD) and it was still classy. But with Soul Calibur 4 it surpassed even DoA Xtreme in gratuitous sexualisation. Ivy, what did they do to her?! She reminded me of rolled roast, the extremely jiggly, fat kind... In Soul Calibur 5 they fortunately toned down everything and they equally made the guys to sex objects. I think, they should get an award for that! The Nobel Peace Price! XDDD I think, that is the way to go. The right amount of sexy and that equally distributed.
Tekken, well...I always thought, the guys looked like gorillas and the girls like men, maybe good looking men... XD So I never really responded to Tekken's kind of sexiness. Even now. I don't think the Tekken girls look sexy in their DLC bikinis... :/

I think what it boils down to is how subtle you are about it. 70% of your marketing campaign should not be "Look at the sexy, sexy women." Soulcalibur (minus those SCV Ivy ads) typically never said all that much about it. You could ogle if you wanted, but that never seemed like the point. Even less so with Tekken. DOA has always often gone "out of its way" to make the sexy women the point of everything when there's still a fun fighting game underneath.

oh god...are people on a doa forum really complaining about "sexualisation" in videogames? What kind of twisted morality are you people coming from where nudity and "bewbs" is more offensive than VIOLENCE. If you want to bring morals into the picture with a straight face, then complain about the fact that the game is a shrine to physical assault and hired killers (yano.... ughhh what ninjas are) THEENNNNN you can get high and mighty and complain about tits and ass.

I mean really... have any of you guys been to a night club recently? A lot of girls go out in public dressed just as provocatively as they do in DOA.

Honestly DOAX2 was a fun game. I played alot of waverace 64 as a kid and it was nice to have it in HD with hot girls and the difficulty really got up there as you progressed in the game. And the pole dance sequence was a hidden feature in the game that you really really really had to go out of your way to get and unlock so its not like it was all in your face about it, it was there if you wanted it. Just like the endless tits and ass in that game was basically only there if you wanted it as well. Tina could wear a Tshirt and granny panty bikini bottoms and tennis shoes SO MUCH easier than she could wear electra or mirfac. If you wanted Tits and ass all over then that was your choice, the game just gave you options but it never forced it down your throat.

Also historically for basically all of human history, women have always been the objects of visual sexual attention far more so than men. For men the sexual selling point (to women in general) is typically status based (think marilyn monroe + JFK) and what do we have in DOA... the greatest wrestler of all time, a ripped rich kid (rig), the greatest most manly pro killer of all time Hayabusa, the leader of a clan hayate, a professional race car driver, a dude who owned his own island, and brad and eliot pick up on the physical side, and jann is based on the most famous rich movie star martial artist of all time. So doa does just as much for men albeit via a parallel facet of sexual objectification.

On another note: The newest TN Twitter pic confirms, that the bottommost floor is included in the Lorelei remake. You can clearly make out the rain gutter, running through that floor. Some where worried, it might have been left out.

I think it's hard coming up with something tomboyish for Halloween so they went with a pumpkin outfit for Mila.

Then again, I question the elegance on a succubus outfit that they gave to Helena. Sure there's lots of lace and Helena had always been the type to wear such but in all honesty, it's a complete reverse with her personality. Being sultry isn't her forte, elegance is. She could have had a better Halloween outfit which could either be:
a) Goddess - the most logical costume she should have had in the first place.
b) Fairy - Honestly, Ayane's Halloween costume fits Helena more in my opinion but probably with a longer skirt.
c) Queen - Probably some frilly Rococo ball gown with an overdecorated powdered wig. (Marie Antoinette)
d) Valkyrie - It's stereotypical but a classic. It fits portraying her previous life as an opera singer.

Yeh wish she switched costumes with tina, red riding hood for helena and succubus for tina :/

yeh and your character kicked an innocent guy out of a moving train after an accident due to a sudden stop but I guess that is not as bad as boobs right. People like you have twisted morality o_0

Looks like this conversation is in dire need of some logic!

It's not about morality. I'm not playing DOA for morality. It's about fighting (hence, why the genre is called "fighting game"). It's about violence. That's why you play it. To be violent. There are games that are focused on sex, too, and there's nothing wrong with that. But agian, the point of a fighting game is to fight, not to jerk off. This has absolutely nothing to do with morals.

I mean really... have any of you guys been to a night club recently? A lot of girls go out in public dressed just as provocatively as they do in DOA.
Not sure I'd consider a night-club "public" since you can be topless in a nightclub but not in public.

Honestly DOAX2 was a fun game.
lol

Looking at historical western cultures such as the Greeks, I'm not seeing that.

A scene that only results from TN perving out on, ironically, boobs.

You are right it is about fighting, and the large size and display of the girls chests does nothing to diminish the fighting aspect of the game. No one said you had to jerk off to DOA, there are clearly better options for that if one has that intention.

Nude beach, and women can be topless in public in many european countries. Lol ever been to Barcelona spain?

lol
Opinions,

The trojan war, zeus banging everything in sight, zeus vs aphrodite.

still no reason to talk down about tinas chest.

Ripped men were naked quite a bit to show off the male form back then. The Olympics (nude,) training gymnasiums (nude,) lots of public bath houses (obviously nude.) You can find a ttooonnnn of Ancient Greek art depicting naked guys.

This doesn't make any sense, how does that = twisted morality
