Welcome to Gaia! ::

I understand that Rath.

All I'm saying is that it does bother me when females are portrayed as sex objects just because they're evil. If they were fun and interesting characters that's one thing, but if it leads up to nothing it then why should I care at all?

That's all. I referenced Yuzuki Kozaki because since when has the Dark Mages unit had revealing clothes before Awakening came out? I understand that it's a style and most people seem to like it fine I guess, but I dunno I'm kind of indifferent towards it.

They were either Shamans in the GBA games, Lopto mages in the judgral series, and there was only one playable dark magic user in Radiant Dawn. And looking through the majority of the series, there wasn't all that many dark users prior to Tharja, Henry, and Aversa. There's Salem, Sophia, Niime, Ray, Canas, Knoll, Palleas. And that's honestly it.


But yeah... you're right just referencing only Yusuke Kozaki doesn't prove anything And again like I said, he's not too bad of a designer. I personally find his work interesting. I really dig Sachiko Wada's art style in particular though. He's the one that did DLC Leif's art in awakening along with other stuff especially Path of Radiance. Senri Kita's pretty awesome too. I mean how about Nephenee? She's the only female soldier in the series(Which I'd love to see more of that class in general) and she's pretty attractive and not to mention she has really cool looking armor design too.

Or heck, even Titania is an absolutely gorgeous, strong woman on her own with those wonderful colors, and she was a pretty excelllent character in Path of Radiance too.

Oh you meant Archolite? Whoops, looks like I jumped the gun. My mistake, Rath. sweatdrop

Ah I see, I guess can understand that point of view. It is interesting that the artist is drawing up from egyptian culture. Whether or not you agree with their beliefs, the myths and stories are farily interesting stuff. And they have a very different way of life, heck all cultures throughout the world do.

I felt like that it would've been very interesting had they gone more into the character's backgrounds just a bit more. Some of the supports does go over it sometimes... but that's not always the case. Like heck, the country of Chon Sin is rarely talked about all that often. All we can tell from Say'ri's supports is that the land is very much an asian type of culture. But I could never really get invested into Yen Fay's and Say'ri's as actual characters because there is so little to work with. The designs are cool, but is it enough to back it up?

Maybe it's a two piece? (shrugs)

Hopefully, with so much focus on the two countries and how you need to choose between them, we might finally get more information on the countries themselves.

ーScreams-　I AM EXCITED FOR ALL THESE THINGS.
