You cropped out her best feature!

[–] ramble81@lemmy.zip 26 points 4 days ago (6 children)

Yeah she’s thicc, but she shows it off with how powerful her legs are, so it actually fits her in more than just a sexual manner. The fact she could crush a watermelon with her thighs is just a perk.

Golden Axe was how I learned at the age of six that I was attracted to women. Used to squint at the CRT a lot to get a better view of that low res ass in that red and silver thong.

I was convinced, until the end of the game, there had to be some way to bring her back.

[–] mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

There was actually a method discovered relatively recently, which allows you to skip her death sequence entirely. Or rather, you force the death sequence to happen out of order, so she isn’t actually removed from your party when she should be. It’s obviously not intended, but it is possible to keep her alive. She doesn’t have any dialogue or cutscenes for the rest of the game, but it’s interesting that it’s possible.

I'm a little embarased to say--I mean I was a preteen boy at the time--but I spent way too many hours fantasizing and lusting over the picture of the Rogue class in the Diablo 1 manual.

Those pixelated succubus titties in the Hell stages were really something too. Kids today just don't know how desperate we were for even a hint of nudity.

See also, the other love of my young life, Samus Aran.

Those are the two little me was staring at quite often. Not quite a crush more of an attraction

[–] Deconceptualist@leminal.space 31 points 4 days ago (6 children)

For me, maybe Razor from Maniac Mansion, even though I never made it more than ~30 mins into that game. My kid brain didn't understand the funny tingly feeling but years later I realized, "oh duh, hot punk babe".

There was also Princess What's-Her-Name, though she wasn't much of a character.

In terms of characters with actual detailed personality, the first big one was probably Rinoa from FF VIII. I was the same age as her when I played it.
