Fucking disastrous thread.
hope there's mod to only have the breast growth part
We won.
>>750636170Why is she chunky? That's actually an really funny idea for a cosmetic.
I don't want to play as a girl though.
>>750636170All video games should come with this mechanic by default. Also does her running become slower and more laboured the fatter she gets?
>>750636984from the video, it looks like it does. or at the very least her animation changes when she is fat, her actual speed may not be different
as usual japan moves the overtone window so far to the extreme that they become prescient to audience taste about 30 years too early
>>750637296Thickness has been popular in the west for about a decade now. It’s just that this is the first time they’ve done weight gain related fanservice in a non-fetish game.
>>750636170I'm done with Japanese games.
>>750636969>>750636170
me rushing to Gamestop to preorder the next Atelier
>>750637469It's great. They were smart enough to not just make it a booby slider, so now feminists can't hate the game prematurely.
What happened to "No Fat Chicks"?
>>750638185It's been 20 years, unc.
>>750636487This but the exact opposite.
>>750636170Make her fart once and I'm fully sold. I'll even settle on a fart joke.
>>750638113They can't hate it because of the body positivity movement they themselves created. It's checkmate.
>>750638380Nah, belches are the answer
>>750636629>Why is she chunky?Her whole thing is she is a big foodie and she has a mechanic where she gets powers and transformations depending on what she eats. Weight gain was just a natural next step after settling on a protagonist who loves to eat a lot and eats just about anything.
It was funny at first but why the hell are they focusing so fucking much on this shitty useless mechanic?
Does she burp....
>>750636170I wonder if speedrunning this game will have weight gain catalogories.
So this is bad…But THIS >>750636170 is good?
>>750638460Only if her seiyuu rips bigger belches the fatter you make her
>>750638516>funnyYou don't understand.
>>750638516Because of the survey they did that was the most amount of buzz the Atelier franchise has gotten since Ryza.

>>750638185Chubby belly is hot if it complements an hourglass figure. There are degrees of fatfuckery.
>>750636969It just doesn't look right.The one of the left feels like the "intended" design. The one on the right looks as if it was made by a modder.
It won't be received well in the west. Among women, weight fluctuations are seen as an indicator of mental health issues.
>>750639205That's why they included the option to lock in a specific size. They got to include their weight gain mechanic on the condition that people who want to engage with it can just set it to max at all times, and people that don't can just turn it off. Very few people are going to use the mechanic as intended.
>>750636170I love when japan keep making things like this because it makes even easier to show they are now pozzed as americansThey will complain about immigrants or foreigners IRL while they slurp shit like this not knowing they are already culturally enriched
>>750639154Left is obviously the intended deisgn. I think the issue is that some elements on the right are distorted. See the star on her skirt. Think they just stretched it. The other issue is the Japs are never as good at drawing fatties. All the best BBW artist are from the West
>>750638185Fat chicks can 100% still be carried by the right bodyshape and in some cases even be a improvement.A friend of mine went from sticc to gigastacy just by gaining weight and growing her hair out during the lockdown period.
>>750636170>no full body fat physics>not even any jiggle bones on the belly
>>750636170AWOOOOOOOOOGA
>>750639957>pandering to a fetish is pozzedThere’s a difference between including fat content as sexualised fanservice and including it to make some kind of lame political statement. Pozzed works do the latter, not the former.
