I'm starting to think the woman running BABD has a secret fetish for clown pants.

Really, how is that any more practical than Widowmaker's normal attire?

The funny part is that it really isn't. In this case it's actually worse.

From a quick google search (and her overall design) you can tell she's most likely based off a black widow spider. They're completely dark but have very bright red markings like on her headpiece. It's a clever way to show that influence as the headpiece can act like spider eyes. Bright, bold colors in nature tend to come off as "wrong" to humans because we've evolved to see these as potential threats. The appeal of the design is that she's dangerous, somewhat imhuman, and most of all something to be feared. Something looks off about her in her original design and it makes it somewhat compelling. One of the better ones I would say.

Now compare this to BABD's redesign. They couldn't even stick to the color scheme. Instead, they gave her this ugly camo green that completely clashes with her original aesthetic and makes her ENTIRE MOTIF POINTLESS. Now her red headpiece that was a nice incorporation of multiple glowing eyes staring at you in the dark to scare off opponents just looks like an eyesore.

Her original outfit isn't even that much to begin with. I agree with the notion she has that weird sleeve thing, but you could justify it for ammo. The baggy pants just make it harder for her to move in ironically as she now has to deal with it being caught on something. At least the original was a skintight suit.

Also, the comment, "Purple isn't a very spidery color". Has BABD seen nature? One quick google search will show plenty of spiders in all shapes, sizes and colors. Try going to the Caribbean and saying multi-colored insects don't exist. You'll get a lovely surprise.

BABD is outdated in thinking people still dislike buff Amazons like it was 10 years ago.

Not to be horny, but I think that muscle girls can be pretty hot. Of course, I also like them to look like women, and preferably have good assets rather than the tranny-but-not that is Abby Arms-are-Way-Too-Strong. As a quick demonstration, here's Rinkah, a Fire Emblem girl who is absolutely shredded.

True, I should've clarified that people like muscle girls that still look like women. Classical Amazons and the like rather than rams dressed like ewes.

The dumbest part is using an orb weaver as a reference for a character inspired by a black widow.

They don’t want good looking female characters, they want them to look uglier than them.

BTW Rinkah is an excellent character from FE.

If I had a dollar for every time we’ve reiterated that BABD hates beautiful women, I’d have enough money to buy tumblr and shut them down myself.

As for Rinkah, she is a reasonably good in both appearance and personality, though her stats were a little lacking in Fates. Feh made her the strength and defense beast she should’ve always been.

I know I just repeated what everyone else says, but Tumblr is just proof positive of the point.

I played the Japanese and the English versions, you can make her a beast every time

She may be fully armored, but her skin is the wrong color and she's too "Disney-fied".

These people do not understand how lighting works. They had 5 examples (all with wildly different artstyles) and of those 5 there only one had her be some sort of moderately dark she-monster, and that was with an incredibly bright light source that was basically directly behind her so her face was in shadow, and where her face was lit it was about the same tone as her skin in the rest of the pictures.

Now onto other things I noticed while reading the thread. I play Fighting games, I like fighting games. I remember talk about Eliza from Tekken having a bikini custom outfit, and the funny thing is that it's almost certainly more practical for combat than her default, and is definitely more practical than the suit and long coat that multiple male characters wear, or the gi with a ton of fabric hanging off it that Heihachi wears, or whatever the fuck Ganryu wears, and this is also ignoring that every character has ridiculous customs. I'm pretty sure most of the male characters have some sort of swimsuit or fundoshi custom as well.

Yeah, it all depends on how the character looks. Plus even if the "gamers tm" were thirsting over Abby, one could expect BBAD or some other group to twist around the narrative to make that group look like they're all worse than just being a group of thirsty spergs.

If Gamers:tm: actually loved Abby, I'm sure BABD would argue she's got too much skin on display. Clearly, everybody living in a zombie apocalypse would cover up as much as possible!

Completely correct, Widowmaker is supposed to dangerous and inhuman (and sexy, she is the femme fatale character after all). She's an assassin/sniper and clearly based on the Black Widow spider, something made even more obvious by her backstory of killing her husband after being brainwashed. Said brainwashing process also messed with her biologically, hence her skin being purple and the unnatural part about her.

That weird sleeve thing is one of her tools as an assassin. It contains a small throwable mine that can stick on walls and ceilings and releases a poisonous gas when people get close to it. So it's not there for no reason, it serves a function.

Overwatch autism over.

They only... changed the clothes and left the silhouette and the color scheme alone? And didn't add extraneous bullshit except a little bit of jewelry?

Hey, BABD... is everything okay? Are you alright? You don't seem like you anymore.

This is just wishful thinking on my part but maybe they’re finally getting tired of doing this shit.
