It's a Japanese game. There's always a booby edit for character customization in Japanese games. Japan is still under the impression that only boys play games, and well to be fair, I guess Nintendo's eShop data that they released last year supports that impression.
90% of Wii U owners online.
70% have used the eShop. 93% of eShop users are male.
And let's be honest here, the booby edit isn't just for men. Women are going to want to edit the boobs too.
Exactly!!!

With all the booby, butt, and crotch talk you guys have been discussing about this game lately you would think this game is titled Xenoblade Chronicles XXX.

Wonder if the character builder has all the settings needed to remake Shulk, Reyn, Dunban, Mario, Luigi, ect
Maybe.... Amiibo might have a hand in that.
I'm really hoping they have the Amiibo implimented. Wouldn't it be cool to see like, Link, Mario, Pikachu and Kirby as party members fighting alongside you for your quests? It would be so awesome! Unlikely, but still awesome!
Never take anything I say seriously. S'all you buddy. ;)
Mainly play on my Switch but I have 3DS, Wii U and PS4 as well.
Fave game series include: Pokemon, Smash Bros, Splatoon, Disgaea, Bayonetta, Dragons Dogma, Phantasy Star & Arena of Valor.

Sorry to dial the discussion back, but is anyone else a little disappointed there's a booby edit but no related sexuality edit for the guys? I mean, boobs aren't solely a sexual thing, as some people pointed out earlier, and a bulge edit would serve hardly any purpose other than over the top sex (saints row), but maybe an overall muscle edit or something to alter your guy's body type.
Really, it should be applied to both sexes.
Dunno, just thoughts for discussion.
I seriously wouldn't mind a bulge or just a "hunk" editor

...
I'm pretty sure nobody but you said that it'd be just for men.
I think we're all aware that women who like women exist.
That's not what I meant. Even perfectly straight women are probably going to tinker with the booby edit, because you know, it actually has a significant impact on the body shape. A bulge edit for male characters wouldn't serve much purpose beyond a quick giggle for everyone involved, but a chest editor would actually get used by most people.
I don't know if there is a male equivalent, though both genders should also have a muscle tone editor.

That would be funny if they had presets with labels...would probably cause an uproar, though.

I was going to make a post, but then CaviarMeths pretty much summed up exactly what I wanted to say.
I'm afraid there really isn't a male equivalent to a boob-slider. And honestly, does it really matter?
I find it funny how with aaaall the new info coming out, the one thing that sparks discussion is a boob-slider. A very miniscule detail in a very small portion of the game. lol

If you don't understand why the boob slider sparked controversy then welcome to planet earth, I hope you come in peace.
Anyway, It might make it a bit more equitable if there was some sort of equivalent pandering to the ladies. Speaking as a man, I don't know exactly what that would be. Muscly arm slider?

And here we see a prime example of misusing statistics. The implicit assumptions being here being that men all want hawt vidja game boob bars, which is far from the truth. Just because 70-something percent of console gamers are male doesn't mean a corresponding percentage of games should be Lolipop Chainsaw.
And how is there 'always' a breast slider in Japanese character creators? I haven't played any Japanese or Korean MMOs, but I just got Monster Hunter 4 U yesterday and my female customizable character had no such sex-appeal-setting.
I'm personally not a huge supporter of the recent crusade to cleanse the world of anything that's politically incorrect. But even I wasn't that happy to see that boob slider. It just seems completely out of place in this game. I thought this was supposed to be a serious game. It's fine having that stuff in Dead or Alive or Senran Kagura where that's almost part of the premise, but please stop giving people ammunition to write off all gaming as adolescent silliness.

What about girls trying to make a character that looks like them? Something like that affects how you look and can be important. If they're really gonna have a great character creator, it should be included. It's not some sexual thing that's fanservice; it serves a legitamite purpose.

Sure, if it's a character creator where you can change absolutely everything about the body, it should be included. But I thought people had said that that wasn't the case with this one? But when they're adding boob-bouncing to resident evil games still, I would've thought it was safe to assume it was just to be raunchy or however you'd phrase it (especially when you combine with the demographics that are mostly male)
Although I'm not really the best person to have an opinion on that sort of stuff. I've never once in my entire gaming history customised a character. I just go straight through with the default every time.
I've been wanting to come back to this thread, but then I noticed that the last three pages are just arguing over a breast slider. I'll just wait this out then...
