New Ghost Hero?

[hack59]

Personally, I really like the new look. It adds some variety instead of just being a Nova clone; though I'm still wondering what's up with Blizzard and giving every Asian character Anime hair.

Wait, seriously? You are worried about the hair rather than, oh, say, ... that she isn't wearing any bloody clothes?? I mean, jeez, what's going on in those coked-up minds of the developers? Does every game have to pander to the 12-year old idiot demography? Aren't there enough media like that already? StarCraft had been one of the few games that was at least trying to be moderately serious. Really, the depth of the characters and the reward for the emotional investment was one of its great selling points. Why does everything have to be turned into something ridiculous? (I know, I know, we already have arm-tumour Raynor, hilarious-hijinks news team, and the Siege Tank with a hundred retractable wheels for bubble gum machine flair. (And the heels, of course.) But this one is just one too many.) [/vent]

Why should she have bloody clothes?

Are we still talking about the Ghost? She looks like she's wearing usual female Ghost attire to me.

Hehe, sorry, "bloody" was an expletive, I didn't mean she ought to be blood-soaked :-)

"Usual female Ghost attire" being armoured knickers and a +1 belly button? Hmmmm... Maybe you're a fantasy graphics designer at heart? Do you think Jim Raynor looks a bit feeble and should hit the gym more often?

Ghosts are meant to be stealthy.

She's clearly wearing pants. They're just lit weirdly, and thus look similar to her skin in colour.

that's just the usual ghost outfit...Tosh wears something very similar too.

As an aside, fun fact: there are no asian actors in any of the 7 Star Wars movies, barring Neimoidians.

What about Lieutenant Telsij?

Well then, it appears I was lied to.

Still only one Asian though. Not proportionate to real world populations.

StarCraft? Serious? When we have Lester and Sarge, those Marines goofing off on the Amerigo, OBVIOUS propaganda (Moreso in Brood War than Vanilla, but still...) and a guy who clawed his way to the top of a rebel group and won against all adversity, but flies off the broom handle at the slightest hint of criticism?

Yeah, the art direction is slightly different, and I could do without Bayformer Siege Tanks, but I don't think the art direction is any worse than the original.

As for the Ghost in question being naked... you haven't looked at the model very closely, have you? Or any Ghost concept art in the past ten years? I mean, it's kinda obvious that the only part of her skin that's visible is above the neckline.
