    I’m glad they went with the more realistic and less sexified version. Aloy is an absolute gem of a character, and having her be less of a normal person wouldn’t have fit nearly as well with the overall vibe.

    (That said I’m not sure how to feel about the Lego version…)

      This is hardly sexified. The game simply went photorealistic instead of stylized.

      The only difference here IMO is a thinner build and cartoony cutesyness. The Aloy we got was given the prerequisite build of a rock-climber, and was definitely made more stoic in demeanor.

      The armors are basically one to one.

        You say stylized, but it’s the same thing. The posture on the right isn’t even possible for humans.

        I stand by what I said tho, the realism did a lot more for the series than “stylized” would have.
