Butter face women leverage it to get attention from basement dwellers by dressing up as video game characters.
Simple answer?
Weird, as poster above said.
Although saying thatm some of the cosplays i've seen where they have clearly put LOADS of effort into I can kind of respect the work ethic.

Really? There are some amazing examples.

Cosplay is people dressing up as their favourite characters. Stuff like Final Fantasy, Marvel, Disney, Doctor Who, Batman villains, anime characters etc.
There are cosplay conventions e.g. Comic Con. Big events and they have a huge following.
In most senses, I don't think it's weird as I've known about it since pre-internet era, although the first time I saw the word "cosplay" was around 1998. That's still over 20 years ago.
The only bit that is weird though is the so-called "furry" scene. That's where people dress up as animals, and there seems to be a fetish sub-culture going on in that community.

Damn can't believe someone beat me to it (literally).
Cosplay is simply dressing up. We already do it at halloween, themed events, etc.
It is focused on sex appeal and sexually suggestive so the folk finding it weird are obviously incels.

To be honest the kinds of guys following this stuff and jerking to video game characters are more likely to be the virgins.
I mean we only need to look at any cosplay event to see what they all look like.

All I remember is one of Blizzards cosplay events I saw on youtube, where they looked really good.
Edit: It was a part of blizzcon though so like a proper show not a random convention. I think also had cash prizes.

I suppose it depends on the cosplay really.
Adam Savage takes pride in extremely detailed costumes, such as his recent Mk1 Iron Man suit, or the Nasa space suits, or his Chewbacca costume etc.
I suppose at the same time, if you want to knock those who enjoy cosplay, I guess you could also say that those who wear football shirts, are all just wannabe's too
