Girls and fan service is great when it's natural not, when it's forced in to fit an agenda

The only type of game where it wouldnt be natural, would be a game whith gay men as primary target audience, so with them being dunno 2-3% of population, barely any game should make them as a target.
We can assume in 99,999% of games(at least when it comes to AA and especially AAA) its natural to have beautiful sexy females and only other way around is pushing agenda.

Personaly, I want more Panam, Judy and Tris and less anime girl in heels fighting monsters while using underware.

Shit is so cringe. Calling it "fan service" makes it even worse.

Whatever float your boat tho, let the market decide. But I couldnt cringe harder from watching the "Swords & Slippers" trailer.

I dislike a lot of the anime girls that most Japanese companies do where they look like underage girls and they’ll give them big assets and call them adults. Which is why Final Fantasy games are the only Jrpg which I actually like the female characters.

Personally think Korean and Chinese games do female characters way better than most Japanese companies since most of them actually got adult porportions.

Western characters would be my favorite by far cause a good looking Wonder Woman, Black Canary, Big Barda, Hawk Girl, Black Cat, Huntress, Psylocke, Red Sonja, Sheena, Bat Girl, and countless other DC/Marvel/western comic beats all those anime big titty girls easily.

This is a Patreon game? Oh well, there goes most of my interest. Those usually seem to get stuck in development and never finish (no pun intended, but I know what you're thinking).

Butt physics are on point

edginess should extend to the game-design, and that's always where western devs fail miserably

back in the days Ninja Gaiden or Dead or Alive earned the "extreme" chara-design, because those were hardcore games, i miss this synergy, nowadays we have opportunistic bland stuff like Stellar Blade

 

[seething left]

I never understood the current trend. I see enough fat and ugly people IRL, why should I have any interest in seeing them in games as well?

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

That's what it takes... Not that idiot Trump or Druckmann doesn't prioritize that.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

Rock on. Devs should be free to make the games they want. Nothing wrong with sexy.

It's even about motivating girls to look pretty and healthy... Not with the feminist thinking of the Druckmann woman and the nonsense of fat women or single mothers.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

All that I care about is that the fan-service come with well implemented gameplay.

I'll never buy a game just for fan-service, but if you wanna make sexy and great to play ala Nier Automata/Bayonetta I'm all for it.

Yeah while I do like Stellar Blade cause that’s about the best we got currently but Eve doesn’t even act sexy or edgy like the good old days when the characters actually got attitude while being sexy at the same time. Wish we have today’s graphical tech during the 90s/early 2000s.

I can’t believe some people would put so much trust on him just because he’s against woke stuff. I don’t trust any of those people in power not to mention the conspiracy side of me already knows he ain’t good but won’t say any more of that.

 

[Hawk The Slayer]

It looks nice and high quality but personally not a game I would be into since I need games to have some story or cool enemies or a legit story at least with enemies.

Dude, it's a joke.

Well, it's partly real .


Just do a good job and get some pretty girls back...

 

[Hypereides]

Neat. "Sexy" and "fanservice" is all fine and dandy, but what about bringing back some "hyper masculinity"? I'm still baffled we haven't gotten a John Wick TPS-action hybrid game. Its something that should've been put into a development pipeline a while ago.

Yup, nice looking females in games are good. But we shouldn't have every game be a Bayonetta, Stellar Blade or Nier Automata. Those games are needed mind you, I'm eagerly awaiting Tides of Annihilation.

But back in my day, it was called a verity.

Masculine games like OG God of War, Splinter Cell. Thief.

Shooters like Doom. Dark Ages will be glorious.

Edgy hack'n'slash games like OG Devil May Cry.

All masculine just different flavours and genres.

It's funny Asian Devs can give us those games.

Actually ProjectTH looks like a mix of Splinter Cell, John Wick and Metal Gear Solid. And it's a Korean game.





Bosses look very Kojima like

The people who complain are not the same people who buy the products.

You would think companies should understand that; but no exec is going to stick his neck out to prove it. You’re wrong - you lost you job. You are right - everybody hates you because you were right and went against the orthodoxy. So unless you are at a very top there is very little potential upside.

 

[Sharius]

Keep voting with your wallets. 10+ years ago I was buying games from western studios left and right and the asian titles for me were in the vast minority. Now if I spend money on a day1 release it's usually an asian game and I pretty much abandoned the western AAA market (or at least until the deep sale phase).

i don't think i buy any western game a whole 2024, and still keep going for 2025
