Flabby ass physics

[oskar-det]

I don't really know how to start this topic, I'll just let you in on three prime examples of flabby ass physics:

Halo Reach

P.N.03

Lost Planet 2

Are you disturbed by the amount of flab jiggle on these three, or do you think it's a realistic touch to in-game physics?

I don't know. Butts shouldn't jiggle and shake like that unless the girl is jumping or spanked... or unless she has a flabby ass.

But of course, they're videogames! But still... some people dedicated hours of work to put that in.

Not as many hours as you dedicated to observing their work it seems . . .

LOL, I think that gif is more famous than the game itself.

So why do developers care to put this in? Do some people find flabby ass physics hot?

[Darkmoon]

Pretty much, yeah. I don't, but they'll likely have sold copies with that gif, and really, that's the most important thing to a games developer.

Haha, I concur!

But think about it. No developer makes up his mind on a lunch break about something like this. "Oh yeah, let's make her ass jiggle" and then implements it in the game in one hour. Oh no, that's not how it goes.

Teams are making decisions to make butts look flabby. Of course, every decision is based on how to sell more games. So why give the girls flabby butts?

The interesting thing is also that this spans from blockbuster hits like Halo Reach to obscure bombas like P.N.03. P.N.03 is particular intresting:

P.N.03 is all about Vanessa's ass. Yeah, there is a shooter game, but admit, all of you (yes, you two guys over there) who played this game enough to unlock the infamous Papillon suit only did so because of her ass.

So one would think that her butt is supposed to look as good as possible, right? Then why does it jiggle when she spins backwards like that? I could understand Capcom's intention of making it realistic if it jiggled when she jumped etc, but a little spin backwards should not be enough to make your booty jiggle like jello. This makes it looks like poor Vanessa has a flabby ass.

SO, Capcom could've done this for two reasons:

1) Some people get turned on by flabby, jiggling asses. Yeah, each to their own.

2) They actually WANTED to make her butt a bit flabby. Like an imperfection to her otherwise so perfect body. Like the mole in Samus's face in Other M.

I've yet to find people who fits into the first category though, so my guess is that it's the second.
