So because she has superhuman abilities that means it's okay that the game totally objectifies her in the worst ways possible? That's some logic you got there! Please explain to me why her abilities or her condition cause her to shove her ass in Snake's face while on the ACC while you're at it.
I believe women have the right to do whatever they wish with their own bodies, by the way. If a woman is proud of her looks and wants to show off a bit, who are you to tell her 'no, she can't'? You can say that it's just pandering, but the game tells another story. Whether you agree with the fiction's 'excuses' is irrelevant; the storyline dictates a character's function.
It's fine to have a conservative opinion on women's sexuality, but to preach your opinion as divine fact seems misguided at best. We understand oni, you think Quiet showing off to flirt with Big Boss is gross and disgusting - we get it already. But sorry to say you don't speak for all women, sir. Some women will think Quiet showing off her butt is a cute move. Some women will roll their eyes at it, but that's the thing with humanity; we all have our own set of standards.
Quiet isn't real. She was designed by people, and the argument is that these people specifically designed her to show off as much skin as possible while still keeping the game's rating. The storyline isn't set in stone, it was also created by people. Saying that "well the story requires her to do X so this makes sense" doesn't work, because the story could have been anything before it was created. Everything about her and the game was a choice by people, and the argument is that it was a bad and gross choice those people made.
Arguments about the personal agencies of people to choose their appearance don't apply to this fictional character inside the fictional story of a video game.
Sheesh. Quiet would be so much more awesome if she wasn't wearing that stupid fucking outfit. Everything she does is great, but it and that leering camera just ruins everything.
