    Those people confuse me. GTA6 protag is realistic but still at model level of conventional beauty.

    It’s not like Sarah Rider (Mass Effect Andromeda) or Jesse Faden (Control), who aren’t as “conventionally” attractive. Although after writing that, Jesse is super hot, and I’m not sure if I’ve been gaslit by the internet into thinking she’s not “conventionally” attractive.

    Being charitable and taking these people at their word, I feel like with the more divisive examples it’s a problem with modern lighting being softer and more dynamic? Leading to more “bad” angles and softer looking features. Most professional photoshoots have very contrasty and deliberate lighting, so maybe they’re too used to that?
