Online game uses cleavage to promote… what exactly?

Published by dan_doll at 2:53 pm under PC Edit This

EVONYBrowse a few articles here at http://videogamer.today.com and you’ll no doubt notice the ad for the free, web-based PC game called EVONY. Or, at least, you’ll notice the smiling lady and her bountiful cleavage.

EVONY
Spend any amount of time browsing this site and… hell, you’ve probably already gawked at this ad, haven’t you?

Forget compelling footage and innovative gameplay talking points, EVONY is being marketed solely on the power of the female form. Don’t believe me? Browse on over to http://www.nintendoworldreport.com and you might chance upon not one, but two different EVONY banner ads featuring the same boobs and the same lack of information.

It’s a shameless marketing tactic to be sure, especially when the bulk of the online gaming population is likely to salivate at the imagery like Pavlov’s dogs and the dinner bell.

EVONY
In this banner ad, the breasts are seen lying down. This and the tall banner on the right of this blog are from ads at Nintendo World Report (and probably countless other sites).

So what is EVONY? Damned if I know. I clicked the ad to see the official website and learned that it’s a free, online game, probably set in some kind of fantasy, medieval world and it may or may not star an enormous pair of exposed breasts.

If the ads within this article aren’t enough to sate your lust, you can check out yet another cleavage pic at the game’s website and try to figure it out for yourself. But, if you do click, know that you’ve shamelessly fallen for bosom-based marketing twice. Once to see the game and once - admit it - when you clicked to read this article.

    Most of the EVONY ads are CGI characters, so that’s what I’m thinking. Still, I’m sure she was drawn by lovely female artists with even bigger breasts and deeper chin dimples.

    Lol oh she’s a real person…or at least parts of her are. I went to high school with her, although she wasn’t quite so voluptuous then. Perhaps she’s been digitally enhanced?

    Admittedly she is +3 on a standard deviation (bell curve), but she doesn’t look like a CGI. Besides, anyone going to that trouble would have given her a smaller nose.

    I’ve been in photography for almost 30 years and can testify that these women do exist (albeit in small numbers).

    Barring digital enhancement, I would also guess that her breasts are natural, and that she has never gone through child birth. REASON: Why go to the expense and pain of implants with the end result only being a “C” cup?

    Meli could clear up the uncertainty by providing the woman’s name. Fashion models are easy to find via the Web.

    Bizarro Addendum:

    Yahoo Answers has a post from “Evony” that claims she is just a CGI creation.

    [Interestingly, this non-existent girl is apparently based on an actual person, so I’m not sure if that counts…]

    The model’s name is Natalie Gauvreau. If you go to her website (www.sexynatg.com/index1.htm) you’ll see the Evony ad, and her acknowledgement of being the girl in it.

    When you look through her portfolio you can definitely see the resemblance in many photos.
