Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Probably wasn't clear on that. I meant the 150% thing being a joke, not the jiggle physics. People having a problem with the inclusion of realistic jiggle physics is something that I didn't even consider tbh...
Yeah, I got that the 150% was a joke. But I think the meat of the uproar wasn't the joke, but the whole situation of posting this for the community as if it's an important thing to decide. The joke didn't help, either, as it shows they weren't taking this seriously, further enraging people.
Sweeping it under the rug then rubbed everyone the wrong way.
Done well, I think "jiggle-physics" actually call less attention the chest, as it doesn't look unnatural. The games that get noticed aren't implementing it that way, though, so it gets a bad rap.
Anytime I see unrealistic boob physics I just point out that they need a sports bra, because that usually fixes the issue in real life. It is distracting but I don't care.
The amount of fucking hate and vitriol that appearance and shit like this gets from everyone involved on social media is the literal definition of "pointless squabble" and people can act like, well, people are passionate about games like any other media. No they aren't. Gamers are dumbasses, and they're being played like fiddles by someone. If you don't like it, you can play so many other games.
