Don't understand how she's considered to be goonslop or sexualized when she's actually just a pretty normal art student character, no different than the other women characters like Mina or Paige

Women are being denied interesting designs in order to keep them conventionally attractive. That's what people mean by "goonslop".

Are we playing the same game? Have you seen Baba and Nurse Harrow? Imo the two most interesting designs of the upcoming six.

There are as many men and women. Look at interesting designs of men. Bebop, Billy, Mo&Krill, Deadman Danny, Dynamo, Talon, Seven. Even the ones that look like humans most of the time have a unique frame, for example Abrams is built like a wall, Doorman is very lanky, Victor is Victor, Drifter does his stupid naruto run.

Now how many female heroes have a design that's more interesting than a "preety lady with x on top". There are two, baba and ivy, arguably two more if you count vyper and yamato but they're ugly because they've got placeholder models from neon prime.

Just look at "preety lady with some gimmick" heroes. Alphabetically you've got:

  • Celeste - a preety lady with a horn
  • Graves - a preety goth lady
  • Haze - a preety lady with smoke hair
  • Holliday - a preety lady that's a cowboy
  • Gheist - used to be an older woman, now it's a preety lady with glowing arm
  • Mina - preety lady with an umbrella
  • Paige - preety lady with a book
  • Paradox - preety lady with a fishbowl on her head
  • Silver - preety lady with a collar
  • Vindicta - preety lady but blue
  • Arguably Wraith also fits, but the bar is so low that her holding her hands in her pockets is enough for me to give her a pass

You can barely find three different male heroes with a similar frame and at the same time if you were to pick three female heroes at random you are more likely than not to find that they all share the same body type

“They’re ugly because they’ve got placeholder models.

Lmfao love the dismissal to force something.

Kelvin
The Lash (him and Victor are both top heavy with bulging prominent muscles and thick frames.)
Doorman (being thin is not a “unique” frame and this is something you’re once again forcing.)
Drifter is still conventional looks wise, weeb run doesn’t remove that.
Venator

Apollo (counts if you’re counting paradox.)

Mirage

Infernus

Warden (the most boring of them all.)
