Female tastes in romance vs. male tastes in romance.
>>727672231Left seems to be exactly what they want based on the type of books they read
>>727672312At least female tastes are a bit more versatile.
>>727672231Best girls in SWTOR you can't romance and only flirt at best or have a fling, like Darth Lachris.
>>727672526Not really.It all boils down to "rich powerful badboy who looks like a model and acts like an asshole to everyone except her"
>>727672231I see where Blue Archive got inspiration.

>>727673375STEP ASIDE
>>727673375The top female erotic fantasies have been known for decades:>vampire>werewolf>billionaire>surgeon>pirateAnd they all have to look like models.

>>727673595>get bitten by a vampire and a werewolf at the same time>use your powers to raid the high seas until you become billionaire>join med schoolIt's really that easy.
>>727673595>And they all have to look like models.Sometimes they look like monsters, see>>727673548
>>727672231Fuck all that, give me Akaavi
>>727672231Vette my beloved. Also, I'd hardly call Quinn a twink.
>>727672563For me, it was Thana Vesh.
>>727672231Enough time has passed: Kira > VetteNo one cares about the others except maybe evil Jaesa and she's less a waifu and more a fucktoy.>>727675126This bitch was such an obscene girlfailure of a sith that it actually became charming.
>>727675126Yeah, also a primo sithussy BW doesn't allow us to bang.
>>727674957>Akaavi SparMy guy.
>>727672656Which, funnily enough, comes from a man's poemshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byronic_hero
>>727673375???is he going to fuck the panther?
>>727673548Kino
men want to have sex with younger womenwomen want to have sex with literal unironic monsters and murderers guess which of the two interests carries social stigma :^)
>>7276738797 foot tall Gigachad muscle 'monster'
>>727676513>women want to have sex with literal unironic monsters and murderersAnd Skadge isn't romancable... that's proof that men were still the ones making games when the base game was made
>>727676513There are plenty of men who want to have sex with literal unironic monsters and murderers, have you seen this board?
>>727672526The boy interests are versatile>Evil woman that's yandere for you>slave gf with some sado-masochist thing going on>Student gf that can go full Anakin if you don't calm her with the dicketc
>>727677890This board is not a reflection of reality
>>727676338he is the panther
>>727672231The Jedi Consular one is the funniest, because you literally groom your Padawan into being your lover.
>>727672231SWTOR fucking LOVES its spunky, sassy, energetic young woman sidekicks. I think every class besides two gets one, and only because those two have slightly older sidekicks. It's probably the most based part of a deeply flawed game.>Mako>Kira>Albino girl>Agent Ensign>the cunty togruta>Vette (the best one)>smuggler and trooper left out to dry with actual mature women
>>727677890periodic anal maintenance fixes all evil women
>>727672231Many such cases
>>727679220The most popular waifu part looks even less disturbing if you consider that the main audience of anime are highschool-age boys, ie: they want girls of their age.
>>727679414>even less disturbingIt isn't even remotely disturbing regardless. I don't think that's what the meme was going for, either.
>>727672526I honestly thought more guys had similar taste, I played Corruption of Champions as a teen and I'm a guy. The book thing seems tame by comparison, hell the best porn game I ever played was A Dance of Rogues and that was made by a woman.Maybe more women need to write/make romances.
>>727675126>tries to fuck you over every turn>if you don't kill her she sends you moneyShe's so tsundere
>>727672526If they were allowed to be versatile with male tastes it would be way more problematic.
>>727672231>>727672526Left is literally "I can fix him".
>>727680721Women don't actually want to fix him because then they'd get bored. What they really want is for the man to be a psychopath for everyone but them and their children. And even then, just a liiiittle psycho around them to keep them on their toes is nice.
>>727680498zootopia ruined an entire generation of men
>>727681418Furries were a thing way before Zootopia was even a twinkle in Disney's eye.
>>727681516It's still all Disney's fault.
>>727679220>no Boa Hancock>no Noi>no FubukiThis list was made by a faggot or a woman.
>>727672231Who cares?Real question is Bastilla or Handmaiden?
>>727672231I remember everyone drooling for that blonde sit woman that got later introduced in SWTOR. Don't remember her name.
>>727672231I refuse to feel even an ounce of shame over my interests after seeing how thoroughly the media has embraced feminine tastes in romance. The existence of Fionna and Cake alone proves that men can and should be allowed to indulge in their "male fantasies." There is no shame, and you should not feel shame. Women are allowed to indulge every desire with crisp, multi-million dollar productions made by talented animators and directors. Men should not have to satisfy themselves with the (admittedly rich) backlog of back-room deals that comprise commissions and Xitter feeds.Does anything I say make sense? Is what I'm saying make sense? Women are allowed to get away with, "female fantasies" so why should men not be allowed "male fantasies."
>>727678472mako fucking sucks (in a bad way). shes all like "hurr durr im a professional" but a soon as it turns out our target is a good guy she 180 to "omg lets spare him and betray our contract!" (which is 90% of our targets because sith are the bad guys)
>>727679220Was Gojo even that narcissistic, or is it just the fanbase flanderizing him? I mostly remember him being laid back and reasonably down to earth, with him not just killing all the higher ups cause he knew that would actually fix nothing.
>>727678102so baldurs gate 3 really is a game for women
>>727681418actually two
>>727682357I think that no fantasy should be look/frown upon. Its literal coping mechanism, why should anyone bother if you dont hurt anyone with them (because lets, be real, no one should get triggered by other fantasies, single exception that I can think of is maybe if they are about you, like if your friend would write a book where some anthro bull would rape you).Of course we have double standards, but you need to remember that this shit changes every few years, in the 90 male fantasy was all over the place, while females got to enjoy theirs on some obscure fanfic protosites.Lets just hope that this trend will pass so everyone xan enjoy their deviant dreams in pace.
>>727680968We're all slaves to our genetics in the end.
I stopped playing when they got rid of healing lasers and I couldnt shoot my allies to life.
>>727683347Do you think they marketed having sex with a male bear for straight men?>>727682357Honestly just look at their romance movies and shit.I remember a girl telling me to watch The Notebook years ago, it's literally just a story of cheating. The woman cheats on her partner that gives her a good life and treats her well for some retard she met as a kid that threatened to kill himself to be with her after some time apart.Go watch The Notebook and see what is hailed as one of the most romantic stories women love.
Evil romance is just entertaining frankly. Especially if the MC joins them or otherwise becomes complicit rather than fixing.
>>727683896The female equivalent of the "male power fantasy" is unironically the "female failure fantasy." The basic premise is that the woman is a complete fuck up but men will chase after her anyway. That's it. That's the core thread that runs through every popular woman's romance.
>>727681418thank god
>>727685271As if such a thing isn't also a reoccuring theme with men's romance. Just look all the anime with absolute failures for male leads and yet they get the girl anyway.
>>727681671I get the feeling that Robin Hood was ground zero
>>727685450Yes there's a subset of male romance like that which appeals to beta males. Harem anime are usually like that.Then there's the vast majority of male romance where the man has to prove his worth / earn his love interest in some way.
>>727672526That's because men themselves are versatile and women are not
>>727673595Surgeons is mothers fantasizing about the husbands of their daughters rather than for themselves.
>>727685957The decline of damsels in distress and dangerous adventures to rescue them in popular culture has been a disaster.
>>727686126Apparently it was evil because it gave men the impression that they could earn or deserve someone which is super big bad or something. Romance is supposed to be a woman inspecting a selection of guys assumed to all already be after her, trying her down selection, then picking one like in a fashion store.
>>727672231Vaylin was the biggest missed opportunity in the entire game. What the fuck Bioware.
>>727682357you are right, but that doesn't matter. men are hypercucks now and will do anything to please their womengods.
>>727679220Why did you leave out characters like Makima and Esdeath out of the bottom? Asuka is also a depressed narcissist.
>>727683098Are you retarded? Did you somehow miss her being sheltered by Braden from the realities of what their work is? She's been fed a heavily romanticized version of what Bounty Hunting is from Braden and Jory because all she ever did before tagging along with you was stay at base and be tech support.As far as she's concerned, they're vigilantes doing paid justice, and that's how it would have always been for her if she hadn't been forced to see the full spectrum of just what that line of work entails by travelling with you and either seeing it in her peers or through the player if they're particularly inclined to following through with every contract regardless of anything.
>>727686871>Apparently it was evil because it gave men the impression that they could earn or deserve someone which is super big bad or somethingIt is the good old "you should not expect to be rewarded for being a good man doing good things because it should be considered a minimum requirement, chud" mindset.
>>727687628That's the excuse they might give but actions prove even they don't take that seriously. They have zero qualms following their pussy tingles for psychopaths that certainly fail the "minimum", which is almost a ick all other things being equal.
>>727680498You're not a man, you're a pedophile subhuman who should be castrated
>>727688674Go be a moralnigger somewhere else.
>>727680721right has one of those too
>>727688830who said I want to fix her?t. hybristophiliac
>>727688830There ain't no fixing whatever the fuck she got.
I wonder if there are actually any (biological) women on /v/.I know there aren't, but that doesn't stop me from wondering about it.
>>727690246There's at least 3.
>>727679220Senjōgahara fucking sucks, what is there to like about her? She gets mogged by everyone else from the cast
>>727690246Haven't you been keeping up with the times old man? Women aren't real
>>727686986True.
>>727672231Ok, tell me more about the evil twink that will betray me
Is this that gay mmo?
>>727696186It only gotten gay during expansions, before that there were no gay romances.
>>727672231Do women get any alien romances? If not you can tell a real woman was nowhere near the writing room.
>>727685776https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7ewdrHU6to
>>727679220Fake news.
When does Consular get bad? I'm on coruscant and it's pretty good so far.
>>727673548/mooare you happy now ?you can't milk these
>>727679220
>>727686986>one (1) opportunity to flirt with her in Echoes of Oblivion>she calls you pathetic and Arcann and Senya look at you like you're retarded
>>727688830No, you can't. She literally invites random men onto your ship to fuck them and cheats on you during the timeskip.
>>727672231Love interests in SWTOR for lesbiansAnd it's all I need for all my 8 characters, tbqfhwym8
>>727672312You are right.But don't forget, this is a video game.A Star Wars based video game.Almost exclusively played by dudes, including the female avatars, and the few women that do play it only do so due to their questionable taste in boyfriends/husbands
>>727679220Asuka went to college then went back to high school.
>>727673548Does Star Wars have a BVLL alien race?
>>727675126Wish I could recruit her as a slave for all my Imp characters.
>>727675654>>727674957kys
>>727699564Redpill me on her.
>>727672312>type of booksAmateur hour, Fetlife is where you can discover everything your mom told you about women was a lie
>>727700775gets with a black guy during a timeskip after breaking things off to focus on her career
>>727672526Yep. It also shows in other genres like shoujo/josei/smut manga.>handsome rapist>good looking rapist>cool wannabe edgy dangerous guy rapist (actually a virgin)
>>727701052everyone knows women are by far more perverse
>>727672231...what if im a fag, tho?
>>727688830I really wish I could have killed this cunt for committing treason. I get that it's the same thing with Quinn where they didn't want to fuck players over mechanically for RPing their character, but they really should have allowed it because that would make the choice feel more "real" and consequential.
>this is twink
I remember liking the sith empress
>>727700775perfection
>>727676338Funny thing, I remember reading isekai book where guy got teleported into fantasy realm, escaped his captors and ran away into magical Zone with mutants, zombies and anomalies, like in stalker. He lives there for some time and befriends magical panther but leaves her because he without any irony start to find her sexy. I read only two books out of three, but people in the comments (of website where I pirate books) call me a zoophile so I guess he fucked panther.
>>727704020*him, I meant people call mc a zoophileI am done for
>>727701205When all the MCs are indecisive shy virgin self-inserts, the guy being assertive is the only way to move the story forward desuWould-be rapists fear the active MC, but then low IQ people complain they can't self-insert
>>727672231men want one thing and it's very fluffy
>>727682089nobody cares about OPM in 2025 except for 3rdies, the series is most popular for how shit every season after 1 is.
>>727672231>videogames "romance"Incel thread.
is swtor fun
>>727705626it used to be I haven't played in about 10 years because I got permabanned for making fun of one of those gold sellers that used to infest global chat it has probably changed a lot but unless they've gone to cutting quests and shit like other MMOs the OG arcs are all worth playing outside of Smuggler. it is probably the only MMO outside of FFXIV that has a better than passable story.
>>727685957I am a loser of a 30+ year old wizard, but at least my romance escapism requires fictional for it to be satisfying.
>>727672231
>>727685271>The basic premise is that the woman is a complete fuck up but men will chase after her anywaySo literally what happens in real life?
>>727703350'Twink' is just another word that has lost all meaning
>>727673375NOOOO! WHY DO WOMEN'S ROMANCE NOVELS WRITTEN FOR A PARTICULAR AUDIENCE HAVE IDEALIZED MALE FIGURES ON THE COVER!
>>727705626You have to be into star wars just enough for it to be enjoyable beyond forceshitter stories.i can ONLY recommend class stories, Makeb and maaaybe the Shadow of Revan stuff. People will say that only force users make sense for the KOTFE?KOTET expansions but even jedi/sith classes are turned into total jobbers so it's probably less insulting to endure the Arcann humiliation rituals as a techie than anything. Everything beyond is pretty poor.
>>727705304Not the first word that comes to mind when I think of Kris, but you're right, he's fluffy too
>>727679220>bad boy (x8)wow, so much creativeI'd add "tall" too but Levi is a manlet.
>>727672526>beta male with mental health issues>versatile
>>727672231>women want power and men want submissionI see no issue with this image.
>>727672526>no you don't understand, all these psychopath abusers are different!No they aren't. Conversely, if they are, so are all of those students/submissive women men likeRise above you hypocritical, hormonal nature and admit you want the stupid retarded shit you like to be morally right, but you won't tolerate the stupid retarded shit other people like out of sheer pettiness, jealousy and insecurity.
>>727673548I gooned to this
I could never choose between Jaesa and Lana. Fuck why are dark side women so hot?
>>727680498why is she wearing her own panties over the head?
>>727708163That's my point. Are you OK, retard?
>>727680498Gonna have to give props to the furry artist for perfectly mixing furry with anime girl.
>>727709906>That's my point. Are you OK, retard?And my point is, stating the obvious is retarded
>>727708163what are you even trying to say
>>727686986Dropped kotfe and SWTOR all together when I realised kotfe is basically Avatar: Legend of Aang, but Zuko has a dead twin brother for some reason.
>>727711038>OP (the faggot) ask something>give him the correct answer It's called being polite, even with gay retards, retard.
Why don't jedi use the force to curve blaster shots
>>727715192Wrong setting, and blaster shots aren't bullets.
>>727672312>Left seems to be exactly what they want based on the type of books they readI think it's so funny that the sterotype is men are perverts, meanwhile women will just sit there reading smut in a room full of people and see nothing wrong with that.
>>727708163>>727711038>"stating the obvious is retarded" said the guy stating the obvious twiceNow that's a self-own if I ever saw one.
>>727715367Usually men act more perverted. Women are more degenerate about their fetishes and keep it more private.
>>727709652everybody should pick lanai'm not even a lana fag but its obvious that she's the main defacto love interest for now on since they can constantly bring back her VA, she's story relevant, and as far as I know hasn't had a moment where you can kill her off.The biggest red pill was realizing that if the character has a moment that you can kill them off/reject them, their relevancy and appearance going to be in the fucking gutter.
>>727709906I am wood.stoopid.
>>727679220This is not correct. I like middle school girls.
>>727716818
>>727698423Well if we're going back that far, may as well cite Betty Boop, who was originally a poodle or something
