But I'm sorry, Humberly González should be annoyed with how the character looks. They turned a glamorous woman into yet another generic whitewashed freckled face greaseball. Using skin issues as a fake means of supposed graphical fidelity. Though at least this time she doesn't look like a trailer trash redneck and/or a cavewoman. (When I say cavewoman, I literally mean just that and not anything about "masculinity" or whatever. It's a face value criticism and that's it.)
All they needed to do for Kay Vess is literally just give Humberly González "Farrah Fawcett hair" and she'd have fit just fine into the neverending late '70s/early '80s of the Star Wars Original Trilogy era. (Even as a "scoundrel" or whatever.) By doing what they did to the character, they also arguably muted her Latina background (not just her femininity). Which is in itself a shame, cause that sorta more clear representation for Latinas would've been great in the game.
The character herself as a person seems great though. All the more reason why this is troubling. The fact that male characters aren't drastically changed either just adds fuel to the fire of the idiots too. My criticism of the character and others like her has nothing to do with objectification. I don't want Dead or Alive girls in all games. My criticism is legit disappointment and/or disgust. Not just cause of poor artistic direction either, but also cause of what I honestly think feels like the "uncanny valley" at times with them as well.
