Many people here don't know the difference between cute and loli (least that's what i think)i. i guess you can blame their amaricanized minds (or whatever).

Though it can go with both, but cute does not always equal loli.

Well yeah, cultural differences blahblach etc. How about weeaboos? Think they know the difference between disturbing and what is just cute in Japanese pop culture? Sure, American / Western culture has sickening double standards, but some things are, IMO, alright to counter the effects of "japanization". Absolutely ridiculous plots in video games being one example. I can honestly say that MGS4 overloaded my tolerance when it comes to some of the aspects of the Japanese way of storytelling.

Point being that just cuz some people spend their days watching Sailor Moon or whatnot, they think they're qualified to call people ignorant for staying alert when it comes to childish characters. Especially when it comes from a country whose women do their darndest to appear childish to attract men  :-\

Wasn't directed especially at anyone. And I don't consider that CV character loli. But I can kind of understand how someone might mistake it for one.

the reason MGS4 Failed in my book was the over-complication of events and Constant feed of useless information JUST to tell the story.
(IMO MGS3 did everything right)

MGS4 didn't really bug me until the end. Maybe my brain is too numb from the Kingdom Hearts story.  :-\ I never understood why they try to make these extravagant plots.

i don't know. the title of this thread obviously reads "kokoro belmondo", not "metal gear solid 4's story is crap". But it seems they're talking about the latter rather than the titled subject.

Kokoro Belmont. My personal feelings on the subject as to why many of us are so biased towards her is probably due to the fact that she is a unknown who suddenly popped up out of nowhere to represent a franchise in a parody shoot 'em up game. Maybe it would've been better if the CV series' representative was one of the Belmonts we already know and is vastly popular. Say Simon, Trevor or even Richter.

You know, it'd be easy to put Simon or Richter in the game if it wasn't an all female cast. Which is why they just created Kokoro to represent the castlevania series. The same could be said about the fuuma girl.

I find it hilarious that people are freaking out over under-aged Ink on paper.

People freak out from the simplest things. They're just mad because its not american enough.
If they want that kind of artwork then they should just go back to the 90's where most games that had anime-ish artstyles were americanized.

BTW, not everyone on here might be American.

Also, I liked the 90's D:
