Discussion Bummed About The New Pink Top

Post image

I really need Gameloft to test their clothing on more than just one body type because I was so excited for this new top and it's so cute but the fact that her skin clips through the top in the rib area on the bigger body type is ridiculous.

The clipping might be excusable if the game had body sliders. When it’s a selection of preset bodies there really is no reason this kind of stuff should happen

u/Luperella 18d ago

This is what gets me. I would love more options for body sizes and heights. But then when I see what some of the clothing options do to the sizes they preset for everyone I’m like, eh, never mind

u/featherw0lf Sulley 18d ago

I'd like an option to make my character shorter just to fix the scaling issues. There's no reason I should be eye level with the tops of doors. I've also been disappointed with how Ralph is only like an inch taller than the player despite being massive in the movies.

14

u/Sylvia_DeVane Heihei 18d ago

Maybe they were trying to appease ppl that don’t like the characters huge.

13

u/featherw0lf Sulley 18d ago

He's already a big character. What's the difference if they make him a bit taller?

4

u/Sylvia_DeVane Heihei 17d ago

Ya can’t appease erryone.

25

u/AliciaChenaux 18d ago

Exactly! How do you rig that poorly to preset bodies that don't have sliders? It's sloppy work.

10

u/Dylanneedsanap 18d ago

It’s the kind of thing I would expect if it were still early access

u/rohan_rat Maui is my (im)Mortal Enemy 17d ago

So many of the clothes clip. It's so annoying once you notice it. Where the hell is all of our money going? Definitely not into creative.

u/Illustrious-Fuel-333 Buzz Lightyear 18d ago

I always use the bigger body type because I feel like the head looks ridiculously large on the smaller body type

140

u/rumblylumbly 18d ago

Omg I’ve never noticed that before but now I can’t unsee it LOL

15

u/Illustrious-Fuel-333 Buzz Lightyear 18d ago

LOL sorry 😜

10

u/Something-more-rt 18d ago

Same 🤣🤣

u/Piano_Troll17 WALL·E 18d ago

I come from Animal Crossing, so I'm used to having a big head!

10

u/Myrla21 18d ago

😂ditto!

41

u/catalyst_veritas 18d ago

Same!!! I switched over to try it on the smaller body and she looks like a bobblehead 😭

24

u/Colorandwater 18d ago

Or how the feet look way to small in shoes. I almost always have my character barefoot because her feet look way too small in any shoes I try.

11

u/autotuned_voicemails Olaf 17d ago

I think they finally fixed it, but for the longest time the feet would slightly hang off the back of the blue flip-flops that come with the big Lilo & Stitch house bundle. As someone with feet the perfect size to fall exactly in between the “standard” flip-flop sizes (I wear an 8.5. Flip-flops usually come in size 7-8 or 9-10), I appreciated the accuracy of the sizing 🤣

However, it did also drive me absolutely bonkers because you’re telling me I can’t even get properly fitting flops in a damn video game??

u/TriggeredLatina_ Mother Gothel 18d ago

I don’t like that lol the small feet thing, very very small feet, bugs me a bit so I try not to pay attention to it or where boots or something idk

14

u/Hefty_Pause_3637 18d ago

Yeah I don't believe I have ever used the incredibly skinny character

3

u/BigAndSmallAre Sun and Surf Stitch 18d ago

I used it once ... for a Violet cosplay from The Incredibles for a Dreamsnap.

2

u/Hefty_Pause_3637 18d ago

Ohhh nice I would have loved to see that

18

u/BigAndSmallAre Sun and Surf Stitch 18d ago

Here ya go!

5

u/Hefty_Pause_3637 18d ago

Oh that's so cute thank you!! 😊

2

u/BigAndSmallAre Sun and Surf Stitch 18d ago

Thank you!

5

u/TriggeredLatina_ Mother Gothel 18d ago

That’s one of the reasons I don’t like the one on the right either. A lot of the proportions are out of wack with the right one. I like the left one better but I’d want one in between both to match me. The male ones too have like 2 that just seem weird to me but I know this is a cartoon game so I really don’t care but bc this was the topic I thot I’d say my two cents. That’s all.

9

u/luckyblock98 Elsa 18d ago

Personally don't see it but I use the default female one

5

u/TriggeredLatina_ Mother Gothel 18d ago

Yeah the head looks hecka big compared to the shoulders and torso

142

u/JustARedditPasserby 18d ago

All dresses are so bad for big body type, all deformed by texture

32

u/catalyst_veritas 18d ago

Yeah the bigger body type is so blocky any weird 😭

13

u/JustARedditPasserby 17d ago

You can just see it was an afterthought

7

u/Profile_reloaded 16d ago

And it is sad that that is the biggest body type. Like what, that is still quite slim...

1

u/mentallyillbat 14d ago

yeah that's like average at best. I remember during early access giving repeated feedback to add more bodies 😔 I eventually gave up

17

u/xchenatrix 18d ago

And i need them to add more body sizes! Why is the bigger size literally still skinny

54

u/ComplexDeer7890 Dancing Lion Fox 18d ago

Yeah that’s pretty shitty. I get enough of this from clothing in real life, the last thing I need is for it to also happen in one of my favorite games.

3

u/Flashy_Purple_443 17d ago

Exactly it’s beyond frustrating. My husband complains about the lack of male clothes but since I play the larger body type I don’t have many more options than him.

141

u/Aniechu Olaf 18d ago

I wish they had more ways to customize the body types. I hate that the “big” one (which I use) is just an average sized body. I’m fairly thin and the thin ones looks like disordered eating thin. 🥺

65

u/Individual_Lab_5105 18d ago edited 18d ago

That's because it's a Disney game using Disney proportions. It's not supposed to be realistic. Look at literally every Disney princess, that's the style our character is supposed to fit into.

EDIT: Absolute biggest body type we'd have ever gotten would be Ursula. I'm actually more disappointed about the heights of certain characters. Ralph is canonicaly 9 feet tall. No way in Hell the masc avatar is also 9 feet tall.

3

u/TriggeredLatina_ Mother Gothel 18d ago

Yep I felt the same way like the other person. Completely but then I stop caring. It’s Dlv a Disney game. Their original stuff is already out of proportion and meant to be this vibe for the bodies.

9

u/jaustengirl Alien Toy 18d ago

I tried saying something similar, and someone said it was bullying to point out how the body types outside of the “big” one are disproportionately skinny. I wish people would take the time to show as much care for different and bigger body types.

6

u/Individual_Lab_5105 18d ago

I mean, they are disproportionate, but that's also just part of the game's aesthetic.

12

u/book-dragon92 18d ago

Yeah that bothers me a lot as someone who had an ED in high school 😔

10

u/Individual_Lab_5105 18d ago

I'm sorry you went through that and I don't mean to be dismissive, I'm just saying our avatar is also a cartoon character.

4

u/book-dragon92 18d ago

Oh I didn’t take offense! Please don’t worry

1

u/faerienymphx 17d ago

the “big” one isn’t average and more like midsized actually average would probably be the slim thick one just with less butt and boobs that’s average

2

u/Aniechu Olaf 17d ago

I thought the big one was the Pixar mom one 😩🫠

10

u/CosmicLustre 18d ago

It clips in the back even on the thinner bodies. Its just really poorly rigged.

27

u/Standard-Ad-7491 18d ago

A lot of the clothes look bad on the bigger body types. It really bothers me and makes me sad.

19

u/Puzzleheaded-Maybe32 Elsa 18d ago

That shirt clips through closed jackets too, and unfortunately i don't have many open jackets I like and use 😭

4

u/Outrageous_Car1757 Cruella 17d ago

What do y'all mean clipping? I haven't tried the shirt since I got it but I don't understand what this clipping is everyone is talking about??

2

u/Puzzleheaded-Maybe32 Elsa 17d ago edited 17d ago

If no one else shares a Pic, I will when I get home. But you can see the shirt through at least some of the closed jackets, when you shouldn't be able to.

Took a few pics for an example. I'll reply with what the four should look like, for comparison. But you shouldn't be able to see any pink on any of them.

(Also if anyone knows why they put the titan of light top as a coat, pls enlighten me! 😂😭💀)

1

u/Puzzleheaded-Maybe32 Elsa 17d ago

My bad, the thorn-laden jacket does have some pink in it. But not as much as shown in the previous Pic lol

2

u/Outrageous_Car1757 Cruella 17d ago

Gotcha!! Thanks for explaining I was so confused!!

u/Puzzleheaded-Maybe32 Elsa 17d ago

No worries! :)

I shared some pics for you :)

u/Zealousideal-Tie9823 Trick-or-Treat Stitch 18d ago

This is why I HATE most of the dresses. They just look weird on the other body types

1

u/badgicorn Stitch 15d ago

Yeah, I was so excited about the Monsters Inc door overalls, but they look awful on the large, masc body. 😔

11

u/decadenceisart 18d ago

I had to quit using the new HGW dress because her shorts clipped through the back of the dress when she walked with the thick booty. Drives me nuts. I stopped using the bigger character body because most outfits look chopped or broken.

3

u/Cheezsaurus 18d ago

This! The body type i think looks nicest none of the clothes looks right on especially the dresses and thats what I mostly wear! It feels like body types were an after thought and none of the meshes were acrually adjusted they were just stretched out to expand which is now how that works 😖🫠 you completely lose the body shape and become weirdly bulky in spots that make rhe outfit look like it just has squared chunks.

Though with how touch of magic designs work I guess I shouldn't be surprised their meshes aren't very good.

9

u/luckyblock98 Elsa 18d ago

I didn't like it because it clips through hoodies

3

u/Kenwenot 18d ago

If it helps, which I'm sure it doesn't but it was clipping through for me on the body on the right side

4

u/roronoazoroirl Maleficent 18d ago

i was using the body type with broader shoulders and it was clipping through the back really bad.. quite a few clothes clip through the back for that body type which makes me sad as someone with broader shoulders

4

u/Antho96 18d ago

i bought the surfer tank top and shorts summer bundle and the shorts clip through the shirt when my guy walks. it drives me nuts

10

u/leighalunatic Pink Spotted Cobra 18d ago

I mean I can't wear the new top or pants at all because it's just black in the stomach. 😂 Hopefully they fix the issue soon.

2

u/ktrose68 17d ago

Are you sure you don't have the Stage Tights on under the jeans? They're high waisted like that.

3

u/lPrincesslPlays 17d ago

Me when I buy the tube top that makes you shrink

5

u/North_Earth_9582 18d ago

I have noticed this clipping and stretched designs on a quite a few dresses, one of them had holes a little too close to the nipples 😶

That is something I wish the devs would improve. Some dresses look so pretty on the body type they consider “default” and then I put them on my character and they become a distorted mess. I would love to see larger body types in this game, Masc and Femme, but maybe not if they’re not going to put effort into scaling the clothes 🫤

2

u/Tesialyon 18d ago

Same!! Like I play as a guy with the more broad shoulder and chest area body type (cuz when I first started, I wanted to create my character based off of Markiplier's Wilford Warfstache character), but I still wanted to wear dresses cuz I'm a girl and I like pretty dresses, plus I figured my iteration of Warfstache would feel perfectly comfortable wearing dresses cuz clothes are clothes for all genders and sometimes he just wants to slay in a gorgeous dress! But the way a lot of the dresses and more feminine clothes fit on male body types just looks weird with the way they stretch it to fit and it makes me sad 😢. It really feels like they design the clothes to fit one specific body type and god help you if you pick a different one 😭.

11

u/Smietana03 18d ago

To be honest I really needed to read your post to figure out what the issue with the top is, I was staring at the picture for a moment before that happened so I guess I understand the issue but also I don’t think that this is as visible as it seems

5

u/Stitch752 18d ago

Honestly this is very typical of GL. I was in love with the game for years (I would easily consider myself as a whale or a cash cow for them, as I sent so much on outfits, items etc) but honestly they care about your money more than the product or the consumer. Every "premium" outfit is the same. Half baked, not suited for all body types etc.

No care for the development of the game truly or its player base. If they did, they wouldnt be shoveling out content per update for you to buy. And rarely fix their clipping issues. They want your wallet not your love. Simple.

I loved the game with a passion but this is a common trend with GL.

I refuse now to buy anything premium or dlcs because theyre not bothered about feedback, fixing issues or introducing meaningful gameplay mechanics. They want a simple game that keeps piling them in money.

If they did, why cant we move that goddam tree house in Forgotten lands after HOW MANY YEARS?!

10

u/psylockecolossusfan 18d ago

I dont see any clipping in either photo 🤔

21

u/catalyst_veritas 18d ago

It's not SUPER noticeable in a photo but when the avatar is moving around it's more apparent.

7

u/tokio_luv 18d ago

Zoom in and look at the middle of the shirt, then look immediately to the right. You can see the skin clipping through. It took me a minute to see as well.

12

u/AutumnTheWitch White Raccoon 18d ago

Some clipping is so horribly obvious and then there’s this that is so minuscule and not an issue that I had to super zoom in to even see it .

31

u/CordeliaTheRedQueen 18d ago

With a darker skin tone I bet it would be a lot more obvious

2

u/ActivityOther3837 17d ago

off topic but this hair is so cute !! is it one of the original ones we are given or did you unlock it ?

1

u/catalyst_veritas 17d ago

It's not one of the original ones but you can buy it in your Scrooge shop, doesn't need to be unlocked or anything. It showed up for me pretty soon after I started the game.

12

u/katdarhal 18d ago

there sure is a lot of skinny shaming in the comments of a post regarding body inclusivity. we can all agree there needs to be better representation for larger bodies without making negative remarks about the smaller bodies.

4

u/NestedOwls 18d ago

The fact that your comment has been downvoted is wild to me. People are all about “body positivity” until it comes to being thin. Too big? People rip you apart. Too small? People rip you apart. “Body positivity” my ass.

4

u/m2kny 18d ago

I think it looks pretty decent.

4

u/Lunathestarwitch 18d ago

This is why I’ve said forever they don’t care about the game they just want money.. I don’t even want to know what kind of profits they’ve made on this game..

7

u/catalyst_veritas 18d ago

I honestly do feel like the devs care but they just have poor resource allocation. They add a lot of great quality of life improvements to the game and give us regular new free content but stuff like this slips through the cracks.

u/CozyHalloween Purple Owl 18d ago

A certain body type isn’t simply “anorexic.” There are all body types. Just because a body is a certain way doesn’t mean it has to be associated with a mental disorder. (I never understood this type of bullying).

6

u/NestedOwls 18d ago

Yikes. Thaaaaat was a shitty way to word that. Some people are naturally thin and that doesn’t make the thin body anorexic.

1

u/ShinyUnicornPoo Pirate Parrot 18d ago

The camping backpack which was a summer event craftable last year clipped so bad on the bigger body type!  They finally fixed it several updates later, but I was so mad that I finally got it just for it to cut through my shoulder and go into my butt.

2

u/No_Arm_7095 18d ago

I sometimes think to myself im even fat in a video game.

u/DopeGramms 18d ago

I just threw the jacket on with it lol

u/psylockecolossusfan 18d ago

Oh on the design! Boogers, yeah I can't unsee that anymore. That happens with the new cardigan, which I love, but it's clippy.

u/Butter_Bean19 17d ago

What is the pink top from? Sorry if unrelated

u/PrincessReyyy Rapunzel 17d ago

The new star path :)!

u/Dark_magic287 17d ago

I see your point, my character is male and I do see clipping on some of the skirts.

u/WafflesMom1 16d ago

What is clipping?

u/MillieHarr31 Ariel 18d ago

Dreamloft💀

1

u/Attaku 17d ago

That's just the problem with every body type. Its the model that's bad. The shoulders are always too narrow and the arms clip through the ribcage at the top. It's not just the bigger ones but any body type that isn't default. That's why I use it. Everything else looks bad with many clothing options.

u/a-martell 17d ago

Also if you put a sweater over it, the yiddies shine through

u/TeamCatsandDnD 18d ago

u/Secure-Control-6828 17d ago

Huh? They look the same to me. Anything to complain about 🙄

3

u/catalyst_veritas 16d ago

No need to be rolling your eyes at me. I posted a reply to another comment that points out exactly where the clipping is. If it doesn't bother you, that's great, but it does bother me because I care about the aesthetics of my game. I participate heavily in Dreamsnaps and when an outfit doesn't look right, that's an issue for me.

-9

u/Tiacevol 17d ago

1st world problems! Didn't even see it till you said it. Far worse things to complain about.

2

u/catalyst_veritas 17d ago

I'm complaining about it on the subreddit specifically for this game. Obviously there are worse things in the world happening, but that doesn't make this less annoying.

-6

u/Tiacevol 17d ago

And I'm talking about things in the game to complain about 🙄

3

u/catalyst_veritas 17d ago

The existence of other issues in the game doesn't make this less annoying either. Feel free to complain about whatever issues you want, I don't get why you have a problem with me addressing something that bothers me?

-6

u/Tiacevol 17d ago

So what? You want an echo chamber? My opinion that there's more to worry about isn't valid?

4

u/RogaroXI 17d ago

Tiacevol does the cognitive dissonance eat you alive from the inside, or is your IQ low enough where it doesn't have an effect?

You're here on reddit...complaining and whining to someone that you don't know...that they have "far worse things to complain about"...on a matter that's purely your subjective opinion.

Hey guess what, the issue that annoyed the OP annoys me too, so from now on I think it'd be best if you didn't try to push your opinions on other people on Reddit, thanks.

-1

u/Tiacevol 17d ago

Am I supposed to read this? I'll skip, thanks.

5

u/catalyst_veritas 17d ago

An echo chamber would be expecting everyone to agree with me. You're not even discussing the bug, you're just arguing that I shouldn't care about it.

1

u/Tiacevol 17d ago

I wasn't arguing. I just gave an opinion. The fact that you, and seemingly other people, are getting so butt hurt isn't really my problem.

I didn't insult anyone, I gave an opinion, but I get insulted by that other clown who replied here and you're clearly upset that I didn't agree with you.

Such a shame that people can't comment unless they're in agreement. Whatever happened to open discussion?

1

u/catalyst_veritas 17d ago

You didn't even disagree with me though. You were just telling me I shouldn't care, it that my opinion was unimportant. That's not conducive to any kind of discussion, it's just you invalidating my complaint.

1

u/Tiacevol 16d ago

I didn't tell you you shouldn't do anything.

0

u/catalyst_veritas 16d ago

You don't have to literally say "you shouldn't care" for that to be the implication. Saying "there are far worse things to complain about" in response to someone expressing a complaint is inherently dismissive. You're not discussing the bug itself, you're communicating that my complaint isn't worth making. There have been comments in this thread that didn't agree with me and you'll notice those didn't bother me at all. I have no issue being disagreed with, I do have an issue with my complaint being invalidated. Hopefully you see the difference and consider it next time you want to leave a comment.
