You want to see the hot lady (or less regularly, the hot dude) in a sexy outfit, or naked, or whatever. I can understand that, but then you have people modding the characters' proportions to such preposterous extremes they're clearly just going to clip through their arms or equipment constantly. You'd think that at that point you'd achieve some kind of post-clip clarity and stop to question if you'd maybe gone a bit too far somewhere
holy shit you just reminded me of that completely ludicrous HL2 mod. It was called something like "cinematic mod" and the guy who made it upped the texture resolution (it looked pretty bad), fiddled with lighting (also in a bad way), remade some levels (aaand we're three in the hole for bad) then spent the rest of his effort replacing all female characters' models with ones that have huge boobs and skimpy outfits, it was hilarious.
And apparently some people dug into the files and the Alyx model even had a fully modeled cervix for whatever reason
