Xenogears and eating disorders?
I think Xenogears is setting a bad example for the more gullible kids and teenagers playing the game.
For example, look at Elly. She's eighteen years old, a grown woman. She's 5'6". And she's 101 lbs. That's around 44.something kg, kids. How is that even possible? Especially considering that she fights, she must have some muscle mass in there. I'd say that this is highly improbable, if not impossible.
My point is, what is Square trying to tell the kids, through Xenogears? That they, too, must be 5'6" and 101 lbs? The increasing amount of eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia, to name a few, are largely due to television and games and models, etc. Do you think that video gaming companies should be setting a better example by making more plausible characters, for their easily influenced audience?
