    Finear, you probably need to NSFW that shit, man.
    What's the verdict on Luna's skin-tight bodysuit?

    Stupid as hell, but she isn't used as a poster child for PLAY THIS GAME, YOU WILL SEE ALMOST-NAKED WOMEN like some of the others.

    Mirana's probably the worst of them. Her outfit doesn't even make sense. It's like... this weird skirt-meets-dress... thing. It's like three feet long in the back but there's basically nothing in the front. It looks fine because she's mounted on her cat the entire time, but I have a hard time imagining anyone walking around in something like that.

    And TA isn't sexualized? She's basically wearing a push-up bra.

    anyway, large bosoms are hardly a problem.
    UGLY BOSOMS are problem indeed.
    but not these ones.

    Dota has a way higher entry skill level than lol, it is a huge jump to go from a mediocre lol player to a mediocre dota player. You should try it for a little longer

    If they give up before this point it's best they stay out.

    I played lol first, and every single friend I have had that played lol and tried Dota 2, hated it at first, then became accustomed to it - and then never loaded lol again.

    LoL would only appeal to those looking for a watered down - simpler experience. Hell I would even consider LoL to be like the first stage of a tutorial level for Dota2.

    It's entirely possible to have a female character be sexy without looking like she's a fucking stripper or wearing fetish gear.
    Women wearing skimpy armor is pornography now? oh lord, lets ban women's tennis, swimming and any other sport that requires them to wear skimpy outfits oh wait it guess its ok there cause they call them uniforms or something right?

    How about if every female in every game from now on is either dressed as a nun or as Joan of Arc depending on her class

    I cant believe it has come to the point where people have to defend breasts from men that don't want to see them, end of the world indeed.

    perhaps its not what he meant.
    Maybe he wanted to say he thinks that those (eye-candy) breasts are brought in such a way that is used to attract young adults, psychotic on gormones.

    to which I may agree, yet I dont find anything criminal in that.

    It's not that I don't want to see them, it's that I don't see any point to it and it makes us all look like overgrown children to anyone on the outside, it says that we aren't mature enough to have female characters that aren't dolled up as sex icons.

    Crystal Maiden would be just as dubiously effective if she were wearing normal clothing, and unless they're trying to make a joke out of it, the way she's dressed is pretty risque for a "maiden."

    It's the same stupid shit with bikini plate and boob-contoured ballistic vests in other games - it makes zero sense and just looks fucking stupid.

    yes, because people criticizing games for whatever reasons are actually taking time to check how womens are presented in particular titles (im not talking about feminist)
    if someone is against gaming as immature entertainment it is caused by stupid stereotypes not by "boobs"

    majority of the games audience is male
    males like sexy looking game characters
    i dont see a problem here (obviously im talking about proper games not farmville where females are probably majority)

    This "sexually appealing women" heroes are inherited from Warcraft 3. No one can deny nelf and belf women are hot . Men like watching/looking sexy women. It's a fact.

    Point 1.
    Valve are either uncreative and incompetent or they are just scared to take the risk and make women more like women instead of walking sexual bimbos.

    Point 2.
    Proper games? I mean really, what are you sitting on a throne and waving your mouse and labeling what game is worthy of being called a real game....

    I'm not exactly sure what the issue is. The greatest influence for Dota 2 character design is in the design of their corresponding WC3 characters - not abiding by them for the most iconic heroes Valve would already be disappointing a lot of players. And turning every female hero either to a Broodmother or Brienne of Tarth would still be disappointing to a lot of players who don't know anything about WC3 DotA. There's little to gain and much to lose for Valve for not abiding their players' wishes, and Dota 2 doesn't really sound like a game that would make a great stand for whatever they'd want to achieve in undoing the current hero designs.

    The truth is, much like their predecessors, Dota 2 heroes don't take themselves very seriously between their pun-riddled lines and extravagant characters. I don't exactly approve of sexism, but I see no reason to get worked up about half a dozen heroes showing some cleavage or lots of male characters being hilariously overmasculine. And realistically, if you can't stand how female characters look like in a game like dota, you're probably in a very small minority and not exactly in the demographic.

    And just to bring some numbers to the post, it looks like to me that the almost-human, scantily clad female heroes have a lower than 1:1 ratio to the rest of the female heroes. Puck, Spectre, (old?) Venge, Broodmother and Death Prophet at least are pretty far from being overly sexualized. And I kind of have a feeling Medusa won't be too cute. Looking at LoL chumpions, particularly their version of Brood, that's quite a lot.
