Wait, this isn’t lemmy shiitpost?
This is my favorite internet gag lately.
Time to go to work at the shit factory!
A male protagonist should always look like he either just fucked a bear, or got fucked by a bear. The one on the left meets both of these criteria and is passable.
I only see a disco man, as handsome as Hjelmdallerman himself, doing THE EXPRESSION. I bet he is doing the fuck a lot.

My first death in this game came from succumbing to a massive heart attack while trying to acquire/equip said tie.

What the fuck are you talking about you can’t customize your character?
You can customize your starting stats. You can customize your outfit. You can even customize your Police style by saying enough things about communism, or apologizing a lot.
Not enough, I expect the Dark Souls character creator to be in every game I play. If my character has a nose and it doesn’t look like a fucking battleaxe - is the game even worth playing?
(Yes, it is. I love Disco Elysium, I just love making horrific monstrosities too.)
To be fair,
HarryRaphaël Ambrosius Costeau already does have a huge honker. :P
Get up now, grab one from the dresser and tie a full Windsor, one try, no YouTube tutorials.
See why the skill check?
Ok, but I’m pretty sure I won’t die of a heart attack if I fail attempting to put on a tie, even if I am hungover and out of shape.

You’d probably pass the check then. I wouldn’t.
Harry is someone that already exists and has relationships in the world, usually those sorts or RPGs don’t let you customize much. It’s like Geralt or Link. But you do get to develop your personality more through dialogue.
As for the tie skill check, the rest of the game is better about saving skill checks for more difficult tasks. It’s just there at the start to reinforce how much of a mess your character is. You can come back later when the negative modifiers clear and it’s easier.

The funny thing is that conventionally its the left one that was attractive. Todays standards for men are actually more traditionally feminine. I dont really care but its funny to find gaping holes in logic like this.

*giggles in baroque and rococo*
Do you mean like men liking blue, instead of pink? As traditionally blue is a gentle colour, meant for girls, whereas pink is strong and vibrant, and meant for boys.

Hot Harry? 😨
Maybe I should drink less…
That’s what I imagine Raphaël Ambrosius Cousteau looks like.
In my game I got him to stop grinning…
Shaven, Expression-free Harry gives me some early Sam Vimes¹, (and by extension Harry Callahan²) vibes:
There might actually be a good cop under all that pain and damage.
1 — From Sir pTerry Pratchett’s Discworld books. 2 — From the Dirty Harry film series.
I actually thought this kind of degenerate nonsense was someone joking but today I saw a mod for Baldur’s Gate 3 to make Gortash “handsome,” so I’m obviously out of touch.
Gortash actually is supposed to be younger and more attractive, according to the narrator at several points.
Fire Hans lol
Games are fantasy and I fully support whatever you like to see. Want to see skimpy women? Excellent! Want to see Giga Chad dudes? You go girl! Want to see beat down dirty protagonist? That’s a-ok!
This whole fighting and shaming for fantasy role-play needs to stop.
Mr. Cody?
Before and after Corn Cream. (order unknown)
Yes, Harry. It is an expression of pain
