please explain why the penis needs to be 2 feet long? penis envy?
Hey. So, I'm not gonna say this in general, because there are exceptions in everything.
I have been studying drawing and 3d art for some months already, and I'm not a specialist, but it seams that there is a "rule" that stands quite often, really often actually. It's the rule to exaggerate proportions.
What it means. This means that in order to do something believable, give drama, and make it looks cool, you need sometimes exaggerate something at the point it turn unrealistic, but it is still believable. Example, if you are doing a gesture drawing or trying to strike a good pose it is almost essential to you to really bend those curves from the human body to imply well what you are trying to show. Let's have a professional artist as example too. Todd Mcfarlane is one of the most famous comic artists of Spider-Man. To make Spider-Man really looks cool in his comics he exaggerated the poses at the point of unrealistic, but still looking believable. With this he could strike some amazing poses back in the 80s and 90s when comics where getting really technical.
I saw this in 3D art too. When you are trying to do a animation, for example, you sometimes need to exaggerate a lot to make something interesting to watch. And this apply from both proportions and unrealistic poses and movement. Try to analyze a scene (if you are able to find) with both man and woman with "normal proportions". Let's say a woman with a normal butt and a man with an average size. Generally you will see that the animations are very limited and you quite don't feel the same movement if you get those two again, and give bigger perks, where the animation, or pic, will start to give the impression of more movement, more action, it will be more believable and cool to see.
Now, I agree that some artists exaggerate some things a lot. I, personally, still like those exaggerated proportions. Here in this game I didn't find weird both the massive prick of the MC and the tits of Nikki (actually I think they combine a lot.
).
Now we can enter on the topic of why so exaggerated big. Isn't a big too much? Well, I think it is quite usual in men to dream about have a massive tool and stamina, this is not a secret. But we just want this to give those poor girls the love they deserve! Think about those poor chicks, brother.
Okay, being more serious now. Some years ago I watched a documentary that was talking about the Venus of Willendorf. It is a really old statue, thousand and thousand years old. It is a statue of a woman (of course) that shows some exaggerated proportions . The main focus there is that she has very big hips and breasts. What the scientists talked about in the documentary is the fact that the human being has the natural instinct to enlarge the proportions of what we think it is more important to us as a way to make it almost "divine" and show others about it. I will try to make this better to understand. Imagine the civilization around the time of Venus. They usually were think about survive, and the survive started, of course, with being born and being raise. Those features showed in Venus are the features that we attribute as perfect to reproduction. A woman with bigger hips would give birth easier and with less chances of both her and the child die. Bigger breasts always were a sign of fertility, and imply that the woman could rise well the child. (You will see that she is considered "fat" in nowadays standards, but if I remember well that represented her healthiness. If I'm not wrong until some centuries ago some people being "fat" was a sign of both healthiness and wealthiness, because it showed that they had enough resources to eat well in a world that it wasn't common)
So, you see. Even with all of us having our tastes, we still are the same old bastards that seek for get bigger and bigger!
. And praise what's is bigger of course.
.
My opinion in general is that I do find interesting bigger proportions and exaggerations, but we need to have in mind the media and the tone of the story you are trying to tell. Take here as example, The Visit is quite unrealistic in its on story. The way it goes you can see it is something casual, almost without consequences. But that prick could be out of place if you do that in a more serious game. I think that in Depraved Awakening, for example, the 35cm dick would took the seriousness of the game.
Well, I tried to converge those two topics, I don't know if it went well, but It was fun to write.
