If "sex sells" why don't devs make male vidya characters more sexy like they do with female ones?

Women don't get aroused by porn in the same way that men do. A picture of a highly sexualized male as is without any background or fantasy behind it is almost always homosexual in nature. Of course, actual dick sucking male gays are around <0.5% of the population, so they aren't marketed towards.

2000s vidya always felt like it was sexualizing both genders until something happened in the ps3-ps4 era where they just stopped

3% as gay actually and 4% as bisexual
and pretty everyone of them is a gamer for some reason
its almost like one's sexuality doesnt determine your interests, nor do you lose interest in a hobby once you realize that

Japanese definition of sexy men is the FF15 cast
American definition of sexy men is Hobo Ryu

They are lazy. They won't invest effort and money on designing base cute 90's mascot cereal characters, which is what every man and their daddy wants to fondle and reciprocate on these contemporary times.

Have you never ever played a video game in your life? There were sexualized males in vidya before you were even born.

There's already a billion games with anime girls. There aren't as many with furries.

The max sexualization for the the fermale gaze is just some handsome face guy in a elegant outfit.

Not being naked, not being buff, not doing strange poses, all those are a male gay thing.

1. Because "sex sells" isn't actually true, at least for video games. The most profitable video game franchises are either devoid or do not rely on sex appeal, and are actively removing them and still being more profitable than ever. This is likely a byproduct of games being seen as toys for kids, so that reliance on sex was rooted out from the onset.

2. Video games are dominated by the male audience, and obviously gays within that male audience will always be an extreme minority. So sexy males have little appeal and do not appeal to the majority

3. Female sexuality is not as reliant on visual stimuli as male sexuality which is practically all visual. For example female sexuality is more rooted in literary than just visual, hence why so many women are into written erotica instead of porn videos. So just slapping naked men won't really do the trick as much as you'd think anyway because how women engage in sexual content is just fundamentally different from men. This is your reminder that men and women are not the same.

It was already dying down in he PS2 era. I distinctly remember Heavenly Sword earned some risen eyebrows because it has a "sexy" female lead on the cover, and it was a PS3 launch title.

Whatever, the future is chink.

What kind of retarded thread is this?

>>681429832
Because the people buying are males. They should anyway though because straight guys don't give a shit and gay guys need eye candy too.
