Sex appeaI is one of the main contributing factors to high sales and longterm loyalty for games yet most developers not only took it away but actively work to suppress it in all forms of artistry expression.

100% true.
You can se how there is not modern iconic character. People still mention Bayonetta and the real Lara Croft, because nothing worth looking at has been designed since then.

Plenty of games flopped even though they had attractive women as the main character or on the cover.

Somehow Lara had staying power.

Yes but porn doesn't come with all the emotional baggage that a real relationship comes with, plus it also provides me with a ton of great sexual fantasies that real life can't replicate. Plus, with AI robowives on the way, there's really no need for a real relationship anymore. Besides, real relationships nowadays are only realistically possible if you're Chad.
>>
>>724855410
Even Alpha Chad becomes beta bucks in a relationship
Why do you think most Chads avoid relationships?
All the power in a relationship is in women,you must dedicate your Life and well being to make her Happy otherwise its over.
Its way easier and more beneficial for a man to go from woman to woman if you are able to.
The only reason men stay in relationships and eat the shit of woman in a relationship is because they cant easily get another women(that is not an uggo or obese etc)
>>
>>724850889
Sex appeal primarily indicates who the game is aimed for.

The phrase 'sex sells' has been tested a few times and found that it's only true when relevant to sex and creates a negative association otherwise.

Or 'sex sells sex'

Irrelevant/overblown sex markers are called an Ad Stuprum Fallacy

Ignoring for a moment the big tits=sexualization/porn incelspeak, you can't even define sexualization or explain why it's supposed to be bad. What kind of brainwashed idiot told you that?

None of them were sold on fanservice except for Dead or Alive which was explicit, intentional, and is (in)famous industry-wide for this fact. Bayonetta is the only other such game but as the series went on they toned it down.

Isn't the whole point of Factorio setting up automation so you don't actually have to do anything?

The automation needs to be built first and it has to be maintained constantly. Meanwhile, in a JRPG.

...except troons like you interpet it as games needing to center around porn and fetishes, because you missed the part where "sex sells" was always followed by "tastefully, and it shouldn't overshadow the product". Because once a man gets full on horny he doesn't give a shit about anything else, which can be seen in estrogen-soaked threads for Stellar Blade or shitty korean garbage.
Example of what I mean: Lara Croft is sexy but people played her games because they were cool third person adventure games and Lara Croft was an actual character.

While it's true that some prudes are overly uptight about appropriately sexualized characters (obviously femme fatales are supposed to be hot) and this trend became somewhat prevalent in the 2010s, it's way more common for coomers to lack any and all restraint/shame when indulging in fap bait. Fan service is an easy cheat way to make up for the lack of positive qualities elsewhere so it's annoying when hordes of horny incels keep falling for it.

It's also much worse now because coomers have become inexplicably self-righteous about it. In the 2000s everyone acknowledged eye candy for what it was and were open and honest about their lustful impulses. No one denied they were there for the sex. They would still participate in the broader discussion about gameplay and everything else that makes games good.

Now in the 2020s this new breed of coomer >>724854870 is bizarrely awkward about anything too explicit and also completely in denial about what is essentially softcore porn. Moreover, they're completely subsumed by their parasocial dependency on gacha gooning and have nothing to contribute to the broader games discussion beyond fapping to their waifus.
