Conan in breast outcry

(un)developers feeling a right tit
Wednesday, 4 June 2008, 06:52

FUNCOM HAS HAD more than its fair share of knockers after it used an upgrade to reduce the breast size of some of its female characters, in the 'Age of Conan' game.

Over the weekend Funcom released a patch to fix various boobs in the programming. But geeks were left fuming when some of the characters started to look less like their favourite wet dream and more 'normal'.

Spinners moved to dismiss the storm in a D cup after forums were packed full of complaints .

The somewhat wobbling response was that the virtual reduction mammoplasty was "due to an unintended change" and developers were looking into it.

Apparently a breast increase patch will soon be out for the lads... or maybe not. ยต

Who are we to judge...

if Funcom doesn't want its MMO to be successful?

I say let them shoot themselves in the foot.

Sad

They should just implement a slider control for the cup-size in the setup menu, next to the audio and graphics settings. Perhaps then the nerds (who assume that just because they can form a big group they shouldn't feel ashamed of themselves) would stop complaining. I've no intrinsic objection to breasts in games, I just find it hilarious that it would prompt so much heated discussion.
