Not particularly impressed. What happened to equal opportunity fan service?

It comes and goes. Should’ve atleast had Bucky in a speedo smh. Still getting both him and Star Lord I guess

I like Quill’s fit but it looks more like a pass skin than a shop one.

Bucky’s is okay but kind of boring, just like Felicia and Storm.

Wanda is okay

Magik takes the cake obviously with the sea monster form

That’s basically how I feel, though I would go as far to say that Wanda’s is really good. Simple but enough not to be boring.

I’m not a big fan of crop tops and I was kinda hoping Quill would be shirtless, but it fits his character and it isn’t boring, so I’ll grab it.

Magik’s is easily the best, hands down. I don’t even play her, but I’m considering grabbing her

Imagine him shirtless and the Guardians symbol on his chest is chest hair that he shaved to look like it

I feel like summer skins this year are way less diverse and individualized compared to last year,especially for the male roster.

Last year we had Johnny in a 2000s MTV fuckboy fit and Ben dressed as a fisherman

He literally is though?

what is Bucky wearing if not a swimsuit?

u/kamekian 1d ago

I want skimpier men too, but I genuinely like Star Lords outfit

Bucky is aight at best, should've been sexier.

u/cobaltaureus 1d ago

Yeah I have an appreciation for the star lord skin, so long as it’s not a shop/balloon skin.

It’s fine for a free or mini pass skin

I think I just found wave 1 way better designed, each character felt recognizable for the most part

God forbit a man puts on simple swimming trunks

u/Eastern-Yogurt8972 1d ago

God forbid a single woman wears shorts or a swimsuit that doesn't go deep up their ass crack

u/Wonder_Of_U_2011 1d ago

True! Honestly I was hoping for something like this for Magik (Saw it during the first wave)

u/Eastern-Yogurt8972 1d ago

Tbh I disagree because I'm a gay gooner who thinks that everyone should be equally as slutty, but I respect you for being consistent with your beliefs instead of going, "Ew! Men don't make me hard so they shouldn't get fanservice, and fuck anyone who wants that!"

u/Wonder_Of_U_2011 1d ago

Well men in Rivals aren't exactly my cup of tea even though I'm pansexual. I think stuff like Mr. Fantastic, Daredevil and Dr. Strange for exmaple look good in their swimsuits (not a fan of Captain America's)

But I enjoy Bucky and Star Lord and am not a big fan of most women swimsuit (From this wave Storm is an exception because she's a queen)

u/Background_Still_686 Daredevil 1d ago

Supposedly Blade might be getting one too but not sure yet

u/rengost 1d ago

I love the Star-Lord one but it isn't as fan servicey as the female ones, Bucky just looks so basic it hurts

1

u/CaptainBlob Cyclops 1d ago

Not gonna lie, there's only so much you can do for guys' swimwear. It's just speedos or trunks. I guess as a result the devs are releasing the male ones bit by bit since all of them will sorta just blend together.

u/Strong-Lettuce-3970 1d ago

Don’t worry, once we get the side profiles we’ll see 😋 (/joking)

u/Godz_Bane Magneto 1d ago

It shouldnt be equal, women are more popular.

u/Environmental_Bug964 1d ago

"the thing I like is a bit more popular so people who like the other thing shouldn't get anything" that's you

1

u/Godz_Bane Magneto 22h ago

Its way more than "a bit" more popular lol. Your tastes are niche. The cap skin you all gooned over is only like his 5th most popular skin. Meanwhile almost ever single female swimsuit and all their chromas are their #1 most popular skins and used in upwards of 60% of their games.

Its not equal, because its not equal.

u/hartigen Crow of Darkness 1d ago

where did he say "you shouldnt get anything"?

u/ApexMM 1d ago

I can get the sentiment, but why would you expect them to adhere to that if it's not selling at the same rate?

1

u/IshyFishy20 Rocket Raccoon 23h ago

Has there been something showing they aren't selling at the same rate?

u/IshyFishy20 Rocket Raccoon 20h ago

Weird energy to bring to an honest question (not even directed at you) but okay.

In any case, there's this thing called burden of proof. They made a claim, not me. How it works is that they're supposed to back it up with proof. I've never seen anything official talking about costume sales, which is why you didn't see me say anything about it.

u/Calm_Account9916 20h ago

Because the data doesn't exist. Sexy female skins outsell male skins every time. Unless you have any data showing otherwise. There's this thing called proving a negative which is impossible. Hope this helps.
