Why do all MCs have such punchable faces

[QAJJA]

maybe theres an explanation

 

[Sam]

Many developers are new to 3d posing and rendering, and don't experiment customising the limited selection of models and clothing available, meaning we end up with many MCs having the same face and clothing.

oh like i said maybes theres an explanation cheers

 

[Dragoman]

Well they want us to have deep sympathy towards mc as their girlfriends get stolen away by a fat man so that is why they have dorky and stupid faces.There goes your explanation.

 

[Procrastinator]

So they are ugly on the outside, like they are on the inside

 

[Tokyoman117]

what if MC's look so punchable because we are the chads stealing everyone's women

 

[Voilsh]

Maybe because while there are pretty cool and beautiful female renders around, males don't get that much love?

 

[NotaBullRobo]

Bigger accomplishment maybe. It's not overly hard to seduce women if you have an amazing body.

I really like Chris from Dreaming of Dana - cool guy, sharp looking... Some other great games don't even show PC's face: DMD, DoD, TP, etc...

And (most of them) use (can't stand him!) f****** Max!

Don't forget the single black best friend that's almost always the same character trope

Honestly...

I think that the Asshole Part is caused for a large part in our head because we are Jealous, i know i am....(not at all games i have to specify )
And i admit, that causes a little bit more Negative feelings toward most MC'S for me...
And i honestly believe that's the same for 19 out of 20 people on this site .

And 99% of the people here are not looking for a "good" MC with a good love story (unfortunately), but they are just looking for a quick fix....
And so you get to the point of Question and Demand.... More people are self Emotionless people who are looking for a quick fix so the Developers are giving them just that.... Because if there is even a hint of a story in a game and not naked pictures then the horny people will Riot...
And now were are getting to the point that it's quantity above quality (unfortunately again)..

I am waiting for a Adult(incest)game with a good Love story without any Corruption/Blackmail/Mental Abuse..(Apart from the one that i'm making )..

But i'm drifting away from your question.
Why do we wanna punch the MC's in games?.... Because we are jealous....

The black guy friend bothers me a lot, it might as well be the same guy just a little older or younger in any given game.

I think that tends to be the case with most characters in these games. The over loving Mother, bitchy older sister, preppy little sister, pervy best friend and childhood friend that's into you. Lets not forget the bland MC that tends to go from shy and nerdy introvert to a guy that does whatever and whenever he wants with a devil may care attitude in like a day. Some change would not kill them

You are correct, I guess I just notice the pervy black friend more because usually in those games there are a few black people in general unless they are a random thug/asshole or the friends mom/sister/gf...

 

[verzauberung]

is there a game where the MC is a fat ugly guy? only game i know that has that is supercreep. EVERY game with a female Protagonist there is atleast 1 fat guy (boss) he fucks her and i always ask my self, why cant there be a game where WE Play the fat guy fuckign the hot chicks...

 

[DSSAlex]

Cohabitation has that too.

I don't know if I would want to fantasize about being essentially what I already am.

 

[constantine]

Because it's what inside that counts. And by inside, I mean what's inside their pants.

This is actually why I don't play many games. When I see the main char face and I don't like it, I skip the game.
So for developer who read this, be aware when selecting/creating MC appearance, it decisive to your game impact.
I'm not alone in this.

Depends on the narration IMO : more gameplay and sandbox games are way better usually without giving you the mc face, while visual novel games would have a defined mc.
Though I just hate the below average douchebag looking mc I see around.

Depends on MC. Personally I hate the generic ones that have no eyes and r overly nice. I rather pick rapey fat old man and punch no eyes MC hard in the face. Maybe he'd grow a pair!XD
