Even if that particular post was for some reason not real, that was a very common complaint about Aloy’s design.

Bizarre. Even from their perspective, they should like it, because it makes her look more real.

These people goon to stellar blade. Velma is right though, basically any gaming sub was full of perpetual virgins bitching about ugly man Aloy. And holy shit when the dlc came out and Aloy is gay? They lost their shit.

Spoilers! I haven’t played Forbidden West yet. 😖

It’s ok, I already assumed she was gay. She wasn’t interested in any of the guys, and she had chemistry with that Oseram woman who made the grenade launcher.

It's not a plot point, Aloy just meets a girl in the dlc and is so obviously adorably flustered, and clearly has no idea how to flirt. It wasn't even like a properly implemented romance. But boy howdy were the chuds upset.

Incels don't typically like real women. They live in a fantasy/nightmare world.

These are the types of guys that prefer women completely hairless I’d wager.

That and they haven’t been around enough women in real life to realize that women are also covered in hair just like men.
