    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    While I would love some diversity in character looks and silhouette especially, that photo do not show what some people think it shows. These is just a picture that tells us that athletes in different fields and competing in different weight classes do indeed look different. Sure, long distrance...

    DOA 6: Ultimate/DOA 7 wishlist

    Because it's two different issues: - TN removing fan service because some vocal, American, political minority don't like "sexy" just to get recognition -> betrayal of actual fans and gamers for opinions of people who never even buy or play games. Even for those fans who would like moderation it...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    Most adults wouldn't care about fighting games or loved playing those (we had people in the dojo who loved good fighter like DOA and Tekken) and parents probably would wonder why I don't study or if I want to punch things, why I don't just go and train instead of being such a nerd. So you...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    And nobody here seems to despise or hate DOA as a series. Not for some woke reasons and or in search of realism, dear god how did you even make that straw man?! Sure, this is mostly what I said and ment. DOA is realistic on the VF <-> MK scale, not the UFC <-> Candy Crash or whatever else you...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    First: If you don't like this thread or my arguments maybe you should just leave or create your own thread... hope you agree that this kind or argument (if you don't like it don't watch/play/read AND if you have complaint make a better game/movie/thread) is lazy and not really productive. I can...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    As a Russian living most of my life in Sweden I can at least tell you that they don't look neither Russian or Swedish because I said so. That is it, because they just don't. The template are phenotypes most usual in the country of origin. You can continue with your speil but nobody cares, just...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    @candynarwhal Well, actually I am more of the "ryssen" in this case but after a couple of decades in the country and since I have taken the Stockholm subway, you can count me as one of Swedes. Haven't heard of specifically about "ryssen kommer" but the Swedish Russian scare is known in the north...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    Because those clones are already here so it's too late to complain now. Or maybe because people didn't know what it would lead to. Also, who are "you guys"? Well, everyone thinks different things about what is the problem: some may find the lack of robots and animals as a reason for...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    While reading this thread and about the new characters like Marie Rose (she is not in my vanilla DOA 5 on ps3 as far as I know, probably DLC or FR character) I suddenly realize that TN put much more thought than I give credit for, specially if I take "jab at Sweden" that @candynarwhal mentioned...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    @human013 I will stop my insane wall of text and instead condense my points, if that is ok with you: Body types, like ethnicities, are simple tools to get more diver... more variation in a fighting game roster so it would fill more alive and fun. There is a reason why people complain about...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    I don't really like necroing a thread and then spamming it with mostly OffT replies but it does irk me how today the fighting games, which always have been very diverse with their "fighters from all over the world compete against each other", are drag in to this polarized debate about diversity...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    Ok, so you got nothing against different nationalities in fighting games. What about ethnicities? Because otherwise I can't really see how you have a problem with an Iranian character, other than it having bad design and shoved in just for some misguided representation. DOA is certainly not SF...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    While CURRENT_YEAR is certainly full of forced, empty diversity where changes do nothing for gameplay and story, are you really telling that nationality has no place in fighting games? One of the most memorable things about SF2 was the world map with fighters from exotic places using exotic...

    Do you want to see more diversity in DoA's character designs?

    Well, technically Rose-Marie, Ros-Marie, Rosemarie and Rosmarie are names used in Sweden although usually from much older generation. So you could claim that her actual name is one of those but she changed it/use a stage name because her original is not cool enough. Same for her persona which...
