Male to female ratio for season 3 [POLL]

[shadowdemon006]

Ki mostly consists of monsters; so in gender it really doesn’t matter much if some of them happens to be female

[TheBrakum]

I don’t really care about the gender but it would be bad if we only get 1-2 females nd the rest all males, there would be a certain ratio but not necessarily 50-50. I’m more worried about the type of character, I don’t want 5-6 humans. Kim Wu, Tusk and maybe one more would be enough.

@xCrimsonLegendx

I’m more concerned with the creature/human/cybernetic ratio. Gender doesn’t matter in this game.

I dunno. They made Aria noticeably female (Chest plates anyone). Fulgore and Glacious are a bit more ambiguous and I’d say Sabrewulf has a lot of masculine markers.

These things might not be super obvious but they’re there.

I actually had a really good and lengthy discussion on the old forums regarding the gender of Aganos and whether the golem should be considered a “he” or an “it” - it was a rather enlightening converstation, I think.

That sounds like an awesome thread. I’ll have to try and find it once the archives are put up.

I actually just searched for ‘poll’ in the forums and found the thread where Oxygen explained how to set one up. Might not hurt to sticky that just in case others are looking for it.

I made this thread if you ever need to access it again. Thanks.

How-To: Add a Poll to your Topic

Here’s how it works Single (default) The simplest poll you can make is a single choice poll. You just need a list surrounded by the [poll] BBCode tag [/poll]. [poll] - Option A - Option B - Option C [/poll] This will produce the following poll: poll Multiple If you want to allow multiple choices, you only need to add "type=multiple" to the tag, like so: [poll type=multiple] - Option A - Option B - Option C [/poll] This will produce the following poll (note…

More women!!!

I definitely think we should even out the cast.

Women are amazing! We all love women

KI’s has the coolest female characters in any fighting game that I’ve played but I do feel that male characters do tend to be cooler looking in general. Doesn’t matter too much as long as the character has good gameplay but the majority of characters I play as are male except for Aria who’s my secondary.

[GalacticGeek]

While there may still not be an even spread among the 2 genders, I do believe that KI does a better job of representing the female side than other fighting games.

Best example: Hisako, the ghost girl herself

[UncannySilk]

Fulgore’s Eagle, so he’s a male obviously. Masculine AI as a compliment to ARIA’s feminine AI.
Glacius could be an unidentifiable gender, sure.
Spinal’s a dude. He’s got dude bones.

I want more girl characters. More well designed characters too. Hisako and Maya’s redesign are breaths of fresh air. Yes, KI has mostly monsters but some of them are identifiable as male/female. Which isn’t bad at all!

I completely forgot about Fulgore being Eagle. Guess my initial ratio still stands.

Looks like most people care about characters that are well designed over what gender they are but more than a quarter want more female characters. It’s interesting results (even though the voting number is low).

I do hope they throw some more monsters into the mix since they’re always fun to see and play. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

[AnewHALOspartan]

We unanimously refer to Glacius as a “he” so maybe he’s male

[Archon879]

@Sciencejoe

Also, pretty sure Omen’s considered male. I think he’s been referred to in-canon with male pronouns, so yeah.

Next time you see Omen win, take a long, hard look at his junk. He’s so clearly male it’s borderline inappropriate.

Not too surprising. Other research I’ve seen suggests that men don’t tend to care about playable character gender, whereas women usually want female characters. I’m not sure how many women have voted in this thread (and please don’t start one of those gender polling threads on my behalf), but popular opinion favouring more female characters is business as usual. Hopefully the devs are on it.

[Sanguithal]

Don’t want to sound like a boring old ■■■■, but I don’t mind the mix of sexes, I just want it to be about the fighting and not the skimpy outfits and suggestive animations. You youngins can find your spank material elsewhere, KI doesn’t need the bouncy chests or the stereotype looking hentai victim.

Leave that stuff for DoA and Soul Calibur, don’t bring it into KI.

[Filemoncio]

what’s important is the ratio of humans vs monsters. Monsters can be female too.

In fact, I’d want to see a non-anthropomorphic fighter. A blob, a puddle, a cloudy entity…

[fenrisulvur4932]

I don’t think you have to worry too much about that. Occasionally these forums get some sort of “bikini costumes in KI pls” thread, and the OP quickly discovers that they’re not in plentiful company on the matter. I think this thread is about female characters for representation and general diversity’s sake.

[SteelFantasy]

I wouldn’t mind seeing more females than males in season 3 IG did a really good job creating female characters in season 2 I’d especially like to see more non human female characters in the KI universe like an alien or a vampire ect.

[TheAuxKing]

Gender doesn’t matter much to me but I do like that KI isn’t always just boring human characters so I hope that they keep up that trend by adding a good mix of male, female and monsters/ mythical creatures.
