Speaking of the goddess in the game, even players who don't play King of Fighters may think of the Fire Dance.

The front convex and backward upturned will also shake, and the clothes are worn less and the value is still high, naturally anyone who looks at it will like it. But for Chunli, the polarization of players is very serious, people who like her think she is surprisingly sexy, but people who don't like her can't help but think of the protein queen in the biology book when they see her.

The cheongsam, black silk, and long legs, in fact, Chun Li's "Gongkou" elements are not many at all, but why can't she be loved like the unknown fire dance? The root cause is in her lap! Chun Li's legs are thicker than many male fighters, especially in the two generations of "Street Fighter 4" and "Street Fighter 5", which is simply too thick to watch.

First of all, we must understand one thing, the game character image related things, in fact, the most important thing is nothing more than two factors, one is the painting style and the other is the human design. The style of painting is determined according to the entire game, what is the style of the game as a whole, and the character image will be designed within the framework of this style.

As for the problem of the personality of the game character, NetEase Game Academy has also studied, and they believe that to set a moving character, one of the indispensable factors is to embellish a special memory point for this character.

The difference between Chunli and Chunli is that her long legs are enough to be remembered at a glance. The reason why Chunli's legs are getting thicker and thicker can be understood as CAPCOM constantly emphasizing Chunli's "memory points", using a thicker form from generation to generation to deepen the players' memory of Chunli's big thick leg image.

In addition, Chunli's leg thickness is also related to the age. Chun Li first appeared in Street Fighter 2, released on CAPCOM's CPS1 substrate in March 1991. "Street Fighter 2" appeared because in early 1989, CAPCOM's North American division "Kombat Whirlwind" market response was good, and it was put back on the agenda.

One of the features of the CPS1 substrate game is the widespread use of the American comic style. However, because of the relationship between the number of hardware color at that time, it was higher than the color saturation of American comics, forming a unique style. For example, the well-known "Dinosaur Kombat", "Kombat Whirlwind", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms 2", the characters of these games are very prominent muscles.

Of course, it is not impossible to think about moving, unless it is to do that kind of thing! Everyone also knows that no matter how grumpy the old brother is, as long as he goes to the "Gentleman's Forum", he will inevitably become polite and easy-going.

In the eyes of players who know how to appreciate beauty, Chunli's big thick legs are actually the same as the big European pie that does not know fire dance. The reason why the legs are getting thicker and thicker, the manufacturers have also moved a lot of careful thinking in private, otherwise do you think that the milk shake of "Street Fighter 5" Chunli is really a BUG?

Many players say that Chunli's legs are getting thicker, but in fact, it is because the main market of the "Street Fighter" series is in the United States to cater to the aesthetics there.
