So you're playing a game and suddenly the female character is randomly framed or dressed in a sexual way and...what? Am I supposed to suddenly start jerking it? Take a screenshot to save to my fap folder? What is the purpose of having this happen? Why devote resources to this aspect of the game over more important parts?
>>730792583Why do you refuse to make up your minds whether to scapegoat video games for gooning or violence despite how niche the dudebro games and the rights to gun in other countries outside of the US?
>>730792714Unc can't stop thinking about martmerishart politics :skull:
>Can someone explain the purpose of fanservice in games to me? Sure.The purpose of entertainment is to excite, intrigue, and interest the audience.As the thing-oriented sex, men are naturally the most enthusiastic about media and generally make up the majority of the revenue.Men like idealized girls sexually appealing to them.
>>730792583>What is the purpose of having this happen? Why devote resources to this aspect of the game over more important parts?It sounds like you have super autism if you need to ask. You're actually questioning why attractive characters exist, and I will tell you: It's because they're one of or maybe the only motivation to play the game. How many games in existence? A million? Why did I play game A or game B? The gameplay, possibly, or maybe I liked the characters. >Am I supposed to suddenly start jerking it?Yes, you can if you want, but the entire purpose a woman would dress like a whore is for attention. >oh look, she's a whore>but she's my whore>i like her more now :)I'm trying to say that the suggestion of sex implies ownership. If the video game bitch doesn't flirt, and doesn't show skin, what reason would you have to care about her? You play something like The Last of Us, and you may think there's no fan service, but the fan service was the fact that the girl you're protecting is attractive. If she was ugly, you would wonder why you even care.
>>730792791So men are shallow?
We need to stop violent games.Call of Duty and GTA has caused gunviolence and murders.
>>730792583No it's just nice. Don't be so disgusting anon
>>730792950>You play something like The Last of Us, and you may think there's no fan service, but the fan service was the fact that the girl you're protecting is attractive.Sociopathic diddy-ahh behavior. Do better.
>>730792770Thanks for the admission that you have no reason to host GOTY awards after not winning it for 5 years straight.
>>730792993Saying "men are shallow" is the most low IQ woman shit I've ever heard. HUMANS are shallow. If a person is attractive, everyone either consciously or subconsciously believes that they have more right to exist. I'll assume you're unattractive as well as unintelligent, and that's why you don't believe in might is right and beauty is right.
>>730792583>Am I supposed to suddenly start jerking it?This is such a tranny take>ERM, JUST LOOK AT PORN, SWEATY!Do you think you can bully straight men into being ashamed of their interests? That's just how you operate on a day-to-day level, isn't it? I will be titillated by every aspect of a game, and you can just cope by keeping on popping your hormone chewables while I indulge in what a man is supposed to like.
>>730792583You are supposed to experience a mix of aestetic joy and sexual arousal, that will mix with the aestetic part and thus add more sides to the enjoyable experience.However, some people are either too perverted (so normally sexy things don't affect them), some are faggots (just like OP), and some are schizo women, who instead of good-looking view see direct competition (as opposed to guys, who in other guys see cool things to achieve and embrace - although men in general have different values of "looks good" for men and for women - and those values differ from those of women's views, hence why making media "for everyone simultaneously" is retarded - developer would just end up either adding so many things, that most groups of audience will be inevitably pissed off by something, or cut so much, that the media piece will end up bland, boring and without things liked by at least somebody).
>>730792993Do you really think you operate on a different level? When YOUR motivation is merely "How can I use this to virtue signal?"
>>730792583Media is simply inherently worse when its characters are incapable of romantic intrigue.Sexlessness is inherently bad.It is a perferable alternative to objectify women than to leave a void of sensuality.
So why is is suddenly bad and political when fanservice appeals to women?
>>730792583Pretty things are nice to look at.I swap the girl to the bikini outfit and go "wowwie look at the pair on that dame!" and then I immediately go back to killing dragons. And overall I have a better experience than if I just killed dragons or "looked at porn."Despite what gameplay only fags might say, the "fun" of a video game is made up of a dozen little good things that add up to more than the sum of their parts. Hot girls can be one of them.
>>730793117Guess super Mario 1 would have sold more if mario was some voluptuous Latina chick huh?
>>730793520Because fanservice for women is faggots. It is disgusting and ugly - thus has no place in entertainment outside of its containment designated fujoshi content or occasional joke in niche 18+ content.
>>730792583>So you're playing a game and suddenly the female character is randomly framed or dressed in a sexual way and...what?And theres a sexy woman on the screen, what more do you need? Most people are not surrounded by hot women 24/7 so having a sexy female friend is a form of escapism for lot of people. And escapism is what entertainment is supposed to sell.
>>730793624>Guess super Mario 1 would have sold more if mario was some voluptuous Latina chick huh?Uh, no, because Mario would then be>ethnic instead of White>a female protagonistThat's two bullets into the head of your game. I was going to say give the bitch to Mario, but he has Peach. Looks like even Super Mario is an example of fan service.
I'll never understand the people who think it's taking resources away from something else just to make a character attractive.Saying "good gameplay > hot characters" is the falsest of dichotomies. I'll take both.
>>730793520Because video games are played by men.
>>730792993Behold the high art literature consumed by women.
>>730793737>>ethnic instead of White>>a female protagonistNTA, but there are Shantae games. Almost Mario. But in in general guys prefer to be cool guys, even through characters by embracing them during playing games.
>>730792583>why make things people would enjoyHuge mystery! Lol
>>730794292Shantae has never done Mario numbers, anon. Not even close. It floats Wayforward well enough and it's probably more popular than their other modest releases. So yes... Shantae found a niche and a fanbase. But I'd hardly declare that proof that her formula is a mold for the rest of the industry to follow.
