I think there's an easy medium here, in actuality I don't really like the battle bikinis either but I don't think they've gotta go in the completely opposite direction liiek they have. Sonya Blade in MK9 is a great example of a character that looked good and was an absolute badass. Then they went all anti-sex and we got what we got in MKX. You can have both, there's more to good character design than just fan service but it is an integral part of making characters that people want to play as, and I think that NR just doesn't seem to understand it. But also, it's lopsided censorship because the men are bare chested and Goro doesn't wear anything other than a speedo. Then you have SF6 and the way it treats it's character design and it just feels like night and day. I just wish NR wouldn't creatively limit their artists like this.
