I just hope they make her buffer. From the preview art it bothers me how scrawny she is compared to how strong she must be to wield that weapon. Or some buff/beefy female champs in the future.

Leona actually looks pretty buff and isn't sexed up for the purpose of fanservice.

boobs sell rp.

People know what they like and Riot knows it too and we don't need you to tell us we are wrong on this. The lack of some other body types simply means very few female body types attractive when compared directly to "the most popular type". Human tastes in what is sexy have become refined and that will look limited an unjust until you realize that this is not a doctrine imposed by a government but rather a desire pulled from viewer choice. Riot cannot be blamed for this to make money they have to be slaves to the tastes of their player base they are hardly the trend setters to any degree. Advertising is so competitive that even good messages are quickly over crowded by the best ones and highly effective advertising 10 years ago is considered ineffective or even counter productive today vs more and more savie consumers.

Games that do not give the public what they want get none of those little green ballots we call money. Your complaining about the dominant tastes of humanity not the artistic policy of a company. Riot is the prisoner of those who choose to give them money. Your argument carries no weight because Riot has no evil and forceful power to tax as governments do indeed it must please those it seeks money from so it must play to their highest aspirations. The ideal human form for women is one springing from evolution even if the ideal male is nearly always an ideal from culture. Both are bottom up forces and downsizing those forces is like trying to command the surf and tide to recede at night instead of rise you just look foolish like the king in that old fable.

Yes they do indeed and its wonderful to know men still lust after women. Reassures me their will still be new children born. If men all became as proper as the most radical feminists wanted no mating would occur at all. The drive to have *** tends to originate from the emotional gratification needs of men. Women may want to reproduce but they lack a s e x d r i ve instead women have a sail that can be pushed by the sexual advances of men if those advances are seen to be clever or new or even breaks up boring routine or alivates a lack of desired funds at any given time.

I'm sorry but I can't relate to this thread because I'm a hot girl and do look like the female champions that come out every week. Also I get treated like **** by other woman for looking hot so I know the true underlying message of this thread is based in insecurity, if you are happy with yourself you should not be threatened by a digital drawing of a girl you consider to be hotter then yourself!

This thread is like a PETA article, it is focusing on the wrong part of the issue. I mean why don't you rant and rave about how woman are portrayed in porn rather then in a freaking "T" rated video game?

Well come on when was the last hot champ they put out before ahri? dont get me wrong riven is adorable but its been a fairly long dry spell between busty attractive female champions. not since caitlyn i think?

Riot has released very warmly dressed skins that show little flesh for many female characters and thus de-sexualizing the female skins is a money looser for Riot. They pay the artist and the programmer to insert the art in their client and get a poor return for investment. On the other hand skins that show more female flesh sell better. Nothing wrong with that at all. Gentlemen never let ANYBODY make you feel guilty for enjoying naked or near naked women its a wonderful thing.

There is a logic explanation for this, in their world there is only busty women.

Best post of the thread. Diatribes against sexual choice stem from insecurity. A fact few of us were able to read between the lines to discern. Indeed not being sexy can make one insecure because then they have to either spend a lot of time and effort compensating by upgrading their speaking skills, or tamping down their sadness and finding other things to do with themselves when their first choice might have been trying to find an attractive person to spend their time with.

Since the quality of your thoughts seems to cut through to the true heart of things I have a question. How best to diffuse and sooth the emotions of those who make these female objectification threads so they might stop making them and just enjoy the game rather then oblige those who are un-threatened by un-forced s e xual choices if consenting teens and adults or just more understanding about why some things seem unfair. This may be a far better way to short circuit the more destructive aspects of social feminism while keeping all those useful attitudes that have allowed women more freedom to choose from a wider range of roles then their grand mothers could have expected in their time.
