Everyone is terminally online and only sees pictures and videos of themselves and others that are full of filters in addition to plastic surgery being super common, so the younger generations literally don't know what human faces actually look like.

Serious question; who the fuck are these games for? 40- to 50 year olds? I can't imagine anyone 13 to 25 being interested in this type of game. And yet these publishers expect the game to hit 20/30 million copies!? They really think there are that many boomer gamers huh?

One thing I notice about all triple AAA studios is that all of them make games for boomers and then they wonder why they can't obtain a younger audience. That also includes Japanese companies infected by western mindsets like Square Enix. Square Enix refuses to make a Final Fantasy game for the 14 - 25 year old audience, meaning edgy/chuuni teenagers going on an adventure with modern day teen fantasy designs. I feel like if you ask a 18 - 25 year old about JRPGs they'd probably prefer something from Falcom since it has anime stylized graphics, Monolithsoft for the same reasons. The ONLY reason they even touch something like FF7Reamke is because.... wait, they didn't touch it. Square lost money making it a Playstation exclusive. And now Square Enix has admitted that they don't know how to obtain a younger audience with their existing games.

TLDR: the younger are on mobile slop because you don't make games for them. Maybe you should start making games for them.

>Zoomers hate new games too on top of not being able to afford them in the first place
some of them are. Zoomers are pushing 30, anon. Many of them now have paying jobs, and I'm fairly sure there's a percentage of them who has at least one gaming console, of a gaming PC. Fucking hell I personally know one or two.

>These games are made exclusively for shareholders and jewish donors like Larry Fink
but anon previously said
>so their only hope is trying to transform 200k a year female project managers into gamers
those two points are contradictory.

What could go wrong in actually trying to appeal to the younger audience?

All modern media is designed by and catered to women. That's why every male character is being replaced by a woman and those women are intentionally ugly - to be unappealing to men and nonthreatening to women. Because women buy ~85% of everything in the economy. Women are the ultimate consoomers.
>but women don't even like video ga-
Doesn't matter. Women are making the decisions at the companies and women are the intended audience.

Majority of men and women do look like shit or average, yes. Faye isn't meant to look like a hot supermodel. That isn't the developer's intention. Her looking like this fits with the realism aesthetic which nu-GoW is known for. Same reason why Kratos also looks like an old warrior. If you made Faye look much younger or prettier it would contrast that and just be weird.

Ugliness aside, it's just lazy marketers thinking that they actually have a captivated audience so they can throw whatever shit at the wall and new players will come and buy it expanding the outreach.

The thing is, they probably do have a captivated audience to some extent considering they aren't 100% bankrupted--someone how to be buying something even if it's just people stuck with a PS5 and are just desperate to buy literally anything new and shiny on that desert of a system. But Sony's failure on Steam has shown they aren't growing their audience at all.

That's the best part, they create the lamest characters possible and then attempt to somehow force them into the mold of a cool protagonist but no matter what they do it just comes off as even more immersion-breakingly lame.

Sure but that's irrelevant to the larger point defenders make. I'm sure they have entire staff meetings to decide on adding visible chin hair is a good idea, but that's all internal stuff.

it's not really about the age. although 30-50 is probably the correct age bracket, that's just by virtue of those people mostly buying brand new AAA games on current hardware. "core" gamers are older, kids are not buying an 80$ game (from a 20+ year old IP, btw) for a 700$ console when their phone does everything and its >free

its just, normies man, what else. they watch every big netflix show, they listen to taylor swift, and they play what is on the front page of PS store - because that is what is marketed to them.

although it says a lot with how much the games industry is failing even when their main demographic has almost no taste or preference beyond what is sold to them as the Next Big Thing. corpos had to go really hard on pithless DEI to achieve that.

i think you make a good point asking if there is really like 10s of millions in this target demographic. i think market research and numberfag investors have really made a comedic misjudgement there. we've all seen that bullshit like "50% of gamers are women", all the growth, records profits etc. when you just see a video game as a product unit, you probably don't understand the difference in audience of, i don't know, a download of candy crush vs. buying yearly call of duty vs. some breakout success like E33. THE MARKET is just huge, right? lets appeal to all of them!

thus they won't buy the game, even if they're the self-insert Mary Sue troon

dude, it's the right wing that financially supports the stuff they like, and has been since the original French Revolution, where Robespierre rallied an entire army around the moral axiom of "gibsmedat for free"
fanatics don't care about money, only about shoving their moral messages in everyone else's face, on pain of death if you disagree with them in any way

these games aren't really "for" anybody. there's a ton of games like this that aren't really made with any target audience in mind, and it's why so many of them seem so weird or boring to people who actually like games and know what they want. this is the result of letting games be lead by people who really don't give a fuck about video games in the first place, and just view their involvement on some project as a stepping stone for them to work in some other industry altogether later

How many female normal fags have traditionally played bloody action games? Without doing it for men.
How many men make a big deal about playing as female characters in bloody action games?
Ugly female characters?

How many normalfag men played TLoU2 and didn't immediately put down the game and never touch another naughty dog game again and openly shit on the poorly cast and written TLoU tv drama?
Anon, look at sales data and the real metrics of humanbeings online.
Not the grifters bots and 1 dollar a week paid shills.

Normal people don't start to masturbate furiously when they see a non ugly women like leftists do. Normal people don't function like you. This actually explain so much, leftists "love" everything ugly, architecture, people, whatever. This is just because they can't stop themselves from masturbating, when they see a women without a moustache, they masturbate, when they see an old building with beautiful ornaments, they masturbate, when they see a cute rabbit, they masturbate. And they think everyone else are missing a couple of chromosomes just as they do.

Maybe its just me and my comment will get drowned out in all the culture war discourse but I am really tired of realistic, facial motion-capture scanning in games. It takes me out when I interact with NPC's all modeled with the bare minimum prospects and then see fucking Keanu Reeves or someone else just pop out of nowhere. You could make them look like ANYTHING. Anything your hearts desire, but you choose to do a 1:1 copy of that person. Thats some Family Guy/Animaniacs tier logic of dated cameos and references people won't get or care for decades down the line. I'm not playing the game to see a celebrity, I'd watch a goddamn movie if I wanted to do that.

Because "better graphics" doesn't mean a better aesthetic.
Beauty peaked over a decade ago. Now it's just a cargoculting process and they don't know what they're doing; we must add more detail, more detail, details!!
Just like on a painting, smooth lines and smoothened strokes are beautiful, whereas spotty splotchy and messy things are not. But we've been able to do the smooth strokes in games for decades, but never before could we splots and splatter so much.

It's shitskin with no understanding of art or aesthetic, going "saaar the engine let us do this thing, we can do more thing, this thing thing-thing, everything, everywhere, here there, things"

there's a huge audience of normies who are just completely ignorant to how fucked the western games industry has become, and will happily consume the slop that's fed to them. the same types who still insist on buying the next playstation console. the last of us, horizon, god of war, ghost of yotei, etc., they are all "cinematic" slop that appeal to the mainstream consumer.
it's the same with a lot of music. you have a team of people produce and write the same slop again and again, have some "celebrity" sing along to this manufactured slop, and the mainstream eat it up. you or i wonder "what is this shit?! the lyrics are so repetitive, 90% of the song is all chorus wtf", but the normie is completely ignorant to that, they are incapable of looking any deeper than the absolute surface level.
