Now that Puritanism (Left) is on the backfoot, will we see the return of softcore games?
I fucking love XBV. I played X2 recently and I think XBV is much better. The better framerate and much better camera controls really seal the deal. My Xbox recently started randomly shutting off so I can't play anymore and I'm pissed about it. Here is a website I made:https://zackisland.net
>>730887107All the big Japanese studios have taken ESG pledges with all the strings attached. The most they can do is some safe horny design with a little cleavage. Censoring ports and demakes, toning down women to make it kosher.There is no pivot happening from them. DoA volleyball isn't coming back. Your best hope is new studios/unknowns from China/Korea.The woke movement has won when the hetero male gaze in mainstream games is reduced to this degree.
>>730887621>Your best hope is new studios/unknowns from China/Korea.Am I the only person on this board who knows that China banned pornography and Korea is a feminist country?
>>730887621here is Koei Tecmo in their last Dynasty Warriors Game following the script.Corpo speak for toning down the male gaze (which they did and will contunue to do).
>>730887705Stellar Blade is Korean.Wuchang, Vindictus: Defying Fate and loads of male gaze gacha is Chinese.
>>730887107Only if you make it happen anon
>>730887438>https://zackisland.netSOVLI miss this era of the internet
>>730887789Yes, stellar blade is femoid protagonist slop where the good ending involves basixcally trooning out.There is nothing pornographic about Wuhang or Vindictus: Whatever. The point still stands that the Chinese goverment is watching and ready to jail people once they feel that what they created is "pornographic".
>>730887621>Your best hope is new studios/unknowns from China/KoreaWho make nothing but safe horny gachashit, so it may as well not count. Everyone leans so hard on Stellar Blade when the reality is it's really nothing special, it's something that could have been made by a western studio two decades ago. And even it was censored on release. You haven't won until games like this start releasing outside of mobile/gacha again.
>>730887789Gooks and chinks are so fucking desperate. Literal whores selling their ass.
>>730888103Chinks were like that before woke went 5th gear.
>>730888101>Who make nothing but safe horny gachashitSafe horny is just a little cleavage on mediocre boobs in an otherwise fully/mostly clothed character. Stuff like that.Gacha shit goes further than that adding big boobs, jiggle physics etc. So do these games:WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers (soulslike)The First Descendant (f2p looter shooter)VEIN (not code vein) (in Early Access)Vindictus: Defying Fate (upcoming single player?)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVdKGZdfzJU>Everyone leans so hard on Stellar Blade when the reality is it's really nothing special, it's something that could have been made by a western studio two decades ago. And even it was censored on release.What is your point? Does it count as an example or not?>You haven't won until games like this start releasing outside of mobile/gacha again.That was the point. It's now just China and Korea holding the fort.
>>730888041OP was never about porn games. Please try harder next time.
>>730888101>softcore games are gone, all we have now is [softcore games] retard
>>730888630>Gacha shit goes further than that adding big boobs, jiggle physics etc.That's all you get out of them, too. The only gacha on the wider market that is even remotely comparable to old Japanese ecchi games is Brown Dust 2, and it just had a major censorship controversy it had to walk back.Korean and Chinese games are by and large "safe horny" because they do not include the erotic elements that old Vita console games had. They just overcompensate in specific areas rather than truly pushing boundaries. They're an objective step down from what we used to get, wrapped in gambling skinner boxes at that. Frankly, it feels like a humiliation ritual. Your precious chinks and gooks aren't saving shit. Bombergirl blows any chink/gook gacha out of the water.>What is your point? Does it count as an example or not?No it doesn't, really. All Stellar Blade has going for it is a supemodel "realistic" Asian girl as main protag, when that is not what has been overwhelmingly targeted for censorship over the past decade.>>730888860If Stellar Blade is "softcore" to you, your standards have fallen to rock bottom. All it has is a hot chick with some mildly risque outfits. In all other aspects it's just another AAA action game. Now compare that to fucking Senran Kagura, whose murder by Sony was the opening salvo of the industry's war on fanservice. There's no ecchi aspects, no lighthearted anime humor, no cast of cute girls to interact with. That is what we lost, not this gookshit. You guys really need to stop sucking off Korea and China just because Japan faltered, they are not saviors of any kind.
Be the change you want to see in the world
>>730890236Send me a check for a million dollars and I will. Game dev isn't cheap.
>>730889496>That's all you get out of them, too.That doesn't change the point, they have male gaze, even more in your face with bigger boobs jiggling than DoA beach volleyball.You skipped all those other Chinese games for some reason.>Your precious chinks and gooks aren't saving shit.That was the point if all that's left is them.>No it doesn't, really. All Stellar Blade has going for it is a supemodel "realistic" Asian girl as main protag, when that is not what has been overwhelmingly targeted for censorship over the past decade.So it's not an example of a male gaze game?
>>730891012Go away Xi, I'm not gambling on your predatory skinner boxes.
>>730887438I prefer 2 for the fun English voice acting (actually my favorite Ayane VA)and perky nips on the models but 1's lighting during sunset is superiorAlso a big thing about DOA that's overlooked between pre and post-Itagaki is the fanservice nuance. Post Itagaki stuff like the new VV characters are all kind of generic eastern 3d anime girl hentai styled. The original Xtreme games had quite a unique mix of anime characters with westernised pin-up style sexualisation, the tits were big but they were realistically big and shaped like 90s fake tits and the whole vibe was closer to a playboy shoot than uguuu manager-sannnn
>>730888024Thanks bro. Gotta keep the cool part of the internet alive>>730892258The perky nips are a nice touch, as well as the independently bouncing tits. Looks retarded, but still activates neurons. I never made the connection between the older stuff and Playboy shoots, but I totally see what you mean and I definitely prefer that over the VV shit. The difference in boxart between XBV and X3 says it all.
>>730893172It makes sense when you consider how much of a westaboo Itagaki was. He liked aerosmith and hooters-style big titty bitches, can't fault the man.Also cool website, nice finding another person who's a legit fan of the original Xtreme games themselves
>>730887107No, because the opposite is happening and they now want to criminalize porn because they're christcuck authoriatarians who want an old-school aristocratic government and no civil rights.
>>730894060Good.Praise be.
>>730895131
Half of these girls are children you pedo!
>>730887107Venus Vacation actually dialed back and removed the VPN bypass that lets non-Asians play the game.They also haven't region unlocked Venus Vacation Prism.The Nips are too hardheaded and got buckbroken by SJWs a decade ago that their trauma is still fresh today.
>>730887107>Now that Puritanism (Left) is on the backfoot, will we see the return of softcore games?Puritanism (leftoid) might be, but puritanism (rightoid) isn't.>>730887621>China/Korealol>>730887789What "sexy" that's allowed from chinks and gooks is safe and/or forced and soulless so it wraps around to not being sexy. Also live2d "animation" is unsexy goofy shit.>>730898538Penus Vacation is so soulless. The style is ugly compared to Itagaki era DOA, the newer bitches designs are so bland they look like AI shat them out.>>730887438Based.
>>730887107>Now that Puritanism (Left) is on the backfoot, will we see the return of softcore games?People use softcore and porn where it has no place to be used. Using softcore to describe DoA either points to never having played it or points to a terminal type of religious or feminist puritanism.But yes, games with hot female characters are coming back, if not from western publishers, from chinese/korean/japanese publishers for sure, and that's what was asked for all along. You will not see nudity(softcore) or pornography(PinV penetration) but arguably very few people wanted to see explicit content like that to begin with. With time, there might be some games which push the envelope on what's allowed but the point is that they will have the freedom to show what they want to make instead of being policed by ESG/DEI/feminist retardation wannabe fascism garbage.If the market decides these types of games are profitable, then there will be people who make them, and that's what was important all along. The signs are already here.
>>730895806The best looking video game tits ever and I'm not joking
I wonder is this anti-china and anti-korea sentiment coming from broader anti-china derangement or is it just weeaboos who don't want to admit that japan has fallen behind? all I know is that chinks are putting pole dancing in games while japs took it away.
>>730887107Isn't the christcuck attitude more popular than ever now?
>>730900723I completely agree. I love Tina.
>>730887107It will just get cucked by Puritanism (Right)
>>730901979>cucked by Puritanism (Right)It's a never ending cycle. Leftists get power and then shit the bed, rightists get power and shit the bed as well. >we shouldn't allow our children to be preyed upon or our men to lecherous>think of the young girls seeing bouncing sexist tits and these incels gooningIt's the same shit with repackaged label and because of that, it will get booted again and again because you can't tell people what to do forever, they will vote for your political opponents. In 10 years trannies and homos will make a comeback because rightists will have shat the bed so hard that everybody will want them out of power.
>>730887438I just read your "I use the internet too much" blogpost. You mentioned that smartphone addiction isn't really about maps or camera, so going to a dumbphone might not be necessary. I agree, because I did just that- swapped my smartphone for a dumbphone for a while, and found that it was indeed overkill and that I had thrown the baby out with the bathwater. What I ended up doing was going back to my smartphone but I used a program (adb app control, it's free and there are a few other free programs like this) to disable the browsers, youtube, misc time wasting shit, and app store (so I can't download more time wasting shit). It has been amazing- now I still have all the useful features like maps, camera, banking apps, messaging, etc. but zero access to time wasting bullshit unless I want to hook my phone back to my PC to re-enable everything, which I'm too lazy to do. Every couple of months re-enable the app store to update my apps, then immediately disable it again.
>>730902714I'll check that out. I had something like that installed a long time ago, but bypassing it was extremely easy, making the entire thing pointless. Sometimes I feel like a hypocrite because of that post. Here I still am, on the internet, staring at Tina's tits.
>>730887107Only in Korea.
>>730887107Lick ice cream on the beach with Hitomi.
>>730903284I hear you, I don't use any sort of web blockers or apps or anything like that because it's all too easy to bypass. Using my PC to disable the troublesome parts of a smartphone has worked flawlessly because when the impulse to fuck around on my phone comes up, it is easily ignored because re-enabling all that stuff would be a pain in the ass. Man is like water, we take the path of least resistance. It's the same reason I eat 100% clean- I keep zero processed slop in my house, because I don't have the willpower not to eat it. Controlling your environment is a lot easier than controlling your impulses. Nice photos btw, the square format is really cool.
>>730902536>Leftists get power>rightists get power>they both do anti-consumer thingsYou realize these "two" groups both follow the same orders right?
>>730887621>>730888041>>730888101I think these three anons are all on the same side, politically. I'm guessing they are leftist.
>>730890236>apply to be localizer for MMO>blue hair/male feminists land the jobIn order to save a lewd questline Blade and Soul 10 years ago I would have needed to be on that team over 15 years ago and proceeded to lie through my teeth about having Christian Western values.
>>730904185I thought they just change lines to kosher woke ones.Does a wokealizer really have that power, just delete a quest in a game that cost money to produce. Seems like the tail wagging the dog.
>>730905931her head is yuge.
>>730906024>Does a wokealizer really have that powerXSEED managed to pressure Marvelous to add gay marriage to Rune Factory 5 after it launched without it, then bragged about it on their blog. In general, they're the main English voice that reaches JP ears and the JP suits are inclined to believe them when they say something needs to be changed for the western markets.
>>730903567>You realize these "two" groups both follow the same orders right?Ye but in the interim they play nice, just like leftists were pro sex after they took power and only got retarded after they got complacent. There's a fight for musical chairs going on every decade and the losers have to stand for 10 years, that's why they're nicer for a while after they get to sit again.But the point is that just because the language changes, it doesn't mean the control isn't there anymore. Rightists might call you "men" instead of "incels" but behind the "male" label is disposability, just like behind the "incel" label was "lower class" or "icky", because women were in power back then and their politics are informed by feels. The boss changed but they're still interested in controlling you, but for other purposes, so they will for the moment play nice but turn the screws later, so be prepared for when the inevitable knife comes for your backs because people who virtue signal for power purposes aren't your friends.
>>730887107Left wing Puritans are harmless. All they do is scream on x or reddit. The Puritans who get shit blocked or censored are religious nuts and conversative moms
>>730887107>softcore gamesPicture unrelated. Softcore requires sex and there is not one smidgen of sex anywhere in the DOA games.
>>730906898All game censorship from the past fifteen years has been done by left-wing puritans (under guise of "appealing to new audiences").
>>730906532>leftists were pro sex after they took power and only got retarded after they got complacentLefties are pro sex as long as the one having sex isn't a white male. Browns raping? Guess we need to let them go because they're too retarded to go to prison. Illegal mexican niggers raping toddlers? Guess we need to let them go because ICE is nazi or something.
it's crazy how you can make anything in a video game yet there's hardly anything with hentai bodies and exposed stylized nipples
>>730906898Literally 90% of game censorship in the last decade has been from the fallout of Anita Sarkeesian-style talking points going mainstream and being picked up by people going into the industry itself. Most definitely not "harmless" when they're the ones making calls from inside the house now.
>>730887107Ummmm, no sweetie. Repent, CHRIST IS KANG
>>730907004>>730907285Steam, itch.io, various Japanese websites were all hit by porn game bans. The biggest form of censorship done recently. These were done by right wing moms pressuring visa and mastercard. These people also took out tumblr porn and almost killed onlyfans. Right wingers are also the ones putting ID checks on porn sites. Frankly, I'm more worried about what conversatives are going to do in the future than how #metoo scared off some companies.
both flavors of direction brained retard wants to stop me from gooning to video games
