Looks like the 'uglification' of female characters is real.

What do economic and political ideals have to do with how women are portrayed in video games? It's completely irrelevant.

People complain all the time about how women aren't represented in games, or how the media focuses too much on beautiful women, etc. And now people complain that they're too normal? There's really no winning here, is there?

I don't see a point to this article, it's just complaining for the sake of complaining.
