Oh, you naughty naughty naughty naughty elf!

So, what does T for Teen mean anyway?

There's this:



Wowsa. Look at all that leg showing!

But that's nothing compared to the drawn version:



From Paragon Studio's email advertising the Holiday Pack.

So, what's being sold in this pic? Look, just like the Give Gift emote, she's giving a present. Only thing is, she's presenting like a baboon in estrus. And she's offering a box. A box by her crotch. A crotch that seems to imply she's not wearing anything over her crotch. Did I mention a *box* by her *crotch*? You know that looks nothing like the Give Gift emote, right?

I expect such a graphic on the cover of Playboy. I've had a less revealing pic removed from the forums for not being "T for Teen."

There's enjoying the beauty of the human form (even if green) and then there's overt sexual pandering. This is the latter. I'd rather have seen this elf nude in just the gloves and boots frolicking in the snow and throwing a snowball then... *this* pose.

I mean, what was even the thought here: That you would get sales by sexualizing fur-lined clothing? Is there a big market for that fetish? "Oh, yeah, jus' like Mrs. Cluas, baby!"

And when you were selling the Gunslinger Pack, where was the drawing of the shirtless cowboy in what appeared to be assless chaps? Oh, that wouldn't have been appropriate? Hmmm....

Yeah, I know, this thread will be full of those saying, "The comic book industry panders to cheap sex all the time." My response, "Yes, but Paragon Studios doesn't have to also."

She's bent over like that because the present weighs so much (as a duplicating gift it's practically a singularity), she doesn't have any upper body strength, and she tried to hold it out and almost fell over! She's in the process of trying to regain her balance. Yeah, that's it.

Oh man to funny

ps. i went to lots of beaches as a kid and teen ya way more skin, with lots of hotties frolicking in the water/wet sand(essentially mud)

pps. teens are just becoming sexual creatures with puberty hitting them seems like the perfect image as a marketing ploy.

ppps. underwear is for old people.

Made me laugh

Looks like a box by her knees to me. Considering how petite the elf is in that pic, I imagine her crotch is about where her belt is. If you want something to be outraged by, look at how she's squeezing her breasts with her elbows.

Personally, I like this pic. It caught me off-guard when I got it in the mail just because it has nothing to do with City of Heroes, but eh. The game can use more pics like that. It looks like a playboy trace? Possibly. I see nothing wrong with that. The more naughty stuff we can slip into a T for Teen game, the better as far as I'm concerned.

Besides, having a sexy green lady is a step up from just having a sexy lady, as far as I'm concerned. At least that's different.

That boat already set sail.

I saw that picture on the updater, and my first response was

No complaints here.

MOAR PLZ.

You know they had to draw that because that character was just too ugly to keep for the picture of the month, right

Also, notice the hair she gets whereas everyone in game is forced to be bald.

Also, notice how they had to photoshop the ingame picture of her so she appears to be looking towards the camera.

I woulda said "No, you draw her, she looks too creepy ingame" too.

Yeah but just look at what the ribbon on her present spells out.

LOOK!

This thread is ridiculous. It must be taken down for the good of the forums.

Zombie's just too old to remember that teenage boys would likely be offended by a lack of "suggestive themes". Given the actual definition of 'T for Teen', and what I recall of teenagers, there is nothing inappropriate about the ad. Thankfully the game isn't rated C for Conservative Old Guys, or there might be an issue.

Just include gratuitous mythical eye candy with unnatural skin pigmentation for those who are interested in men and I'll be ok with this. Until then, clearly sexist.
