What are you even talking? "Modern" games as normies know it, aka the "modern audience", already have ZERO fanservice. Do you see any fanservice in Wolverine? Any at all? No.
Fanservice already only exists in mobile games. You got what you wanted already. You ruined video games by ensuring that on women in them could ever be sexy again unless it was from some Chink or Gook gacha.
No kindly fuck off from the hobby and die.

Kill yourself cuck. Not buying any modern games without EXPLICIT fanservice btw. I'm not going to be researching whether your shit is pozzed or not anymore, I'm done with that. Now faggot devs have to prove to me their shit doesn't stink. Oh, you have 9/11 gameplay? Well too bad you didn't put some tits, ass or loli in the trailer. You remade an old game I like? Looks like you made a character's cleavage 5% smaller so now I don't have to do any more research and no sale for you. No second chances either. You censored a game before? Guess I'm not buying anything from you ever again. I can play any game ever made, your shit isn't special.

it's really just on the decline because of gacha desu.
it used to be that you always had a fanbase even if christfags screeched about it because titty lovers were a huge market, but nowadays putting boobs in your game doesn't guarantee shit because gacha has consumed 99% of said market.
so now not only are you competing with gacha, you're also having to deal with moralfags losing their shit over your game. setting out to make a tittygame is a really, really bad idea, and an existing property throwing the fans a bone isn't worth the bad PR.

>>748076206
yeah gacha won because a lot of sex-brained humans are incredibly susceptible to becoming paypiggies when you jingle keys in front of them
why spend years making a game to sell it for $30-60 when you can make gacha slop for a miniscule fraction of the effort and get endless whales who spend $1000+ a month until EOS and then just make another gacha to trick the same whales into coming back? the only people still doing this are in it for the love of the game, not for profit, which is why only small studios do it these days

relative lewdness doesn't really mean anything in this instance, dude. it's not a matter of competing with gacha in the sense that player A is going to play the current FOTM gacha instead of your niche game, it's about how if you want to make a game that makes money, you make a gacha because it's easy and the potential for astronomical returns is extremely high. at the end of the day people want to make money.

Again, the ones making the most money aren't lewd and don't bank on fanservice so why would fanservice making devs try to move to that? They wouldn't, because actual lewd and fanservice heavy gacha isn't making that kind of bank and hasn't for the 14 years it has been around.
So if things worked the way you try to imply then it would actually be all the non lewd and non fanservice games moving to the gacha model but that isn't the case now is it.

The difference is that Google and Apple give gacha games way, way more leeway for some reason, to the point that as of last year they can now proudly boast to have a game that even Steam pussied out over and banned (Brown Dust 2). Meanwhile Sony and Nintendo have extensive and oppressive anti fanservice policies that they rigorously enforce on anything released on their systems. Even Neptunia is not safe from modern Nintendo. Even the tamer gacha games would be at risk of censorship if released on consoles let alone the more risque ones like Snowbreak or Bombergirl.

You're only proving my point. You're not seeing Falcom and Complie Heart drop console games and move into making only gacha because it would be suicide.

I wasn’t trying to disprove your point. I was just saying the reason gachas seem get away with more is indeed because Google and Apple do not police them to nearly the same extent that consoles + Steam do. If the Japanese government was actually useful for something it would open an audit into Sony and Nintendo over this. There is no reason a Vita game that isn’t even among Compile Heart’s most risque should be considered so objectionable that it has to release on a fucking USB stick just to evade storefront censorship from multiple angles.

you seem really dead set on blaming it on the western boogeyman. if western standards were absolute we never would've gotten a big seller like stellar blade. the reality is that fanservice games are dying because the studios that make them are drying up. small studios close and their devs get absorbed into big corporations, and new studios don't fill that open niche because it's just not profitable any more when you could make a gacha.

If just seeing up a girl's skirt qualifies (and pantyshots have been linked to the term fanservice since time immemorial, so why not) then loads and loads of games and even some western games. If it's not just a game with fanservice, but a "fanservice game" then not too many that come to my mind. The SoulCalibur franchise is some weird in-between limbo. Back in the day it wouldn't be called a fanservice game, the fact that 95% of its female cast is sexy as hell and you can see up all their dresses AND the new ones having a mechanic where you can burst all their clothes off would make it count with this pansy ass audience. In MY day that was just normal.

, so you end up with kind of chilling effect where the games get toned down and so less fans buy it which causes less budget to put towards the devs of the games but they are still under pressure to tone things down, and this cycle causes these games to die slowly.

sony forced the stellar blade devs to censor a bunch of outfits on release and people were turned off by that
luckly they ended still selling enough and pushed out more fanservice later on when sony was more lax with them because they were the only thing bringing in money at the time

>low effort
Too complex for you I guess.
That's called "virtue signaling", and some dev use it as an excuse for making cheap ugly game.

And it's not our fault you are uneducated on basic fact, you really should learn that sex&violence do sell.

always love to see the doublethink where coomerslop games are simultaneously this normal, natural thing that everybody loves but also the little guy eternally oppressed by the outrage target of the week

>you could make a gacha
And I'm telling you the lewd and fanservice heavy gacha market is 14 years over saturated, you're not breaking into thatt market and making a lot of cash if you're not already a big player with a lot of money to spend creating the game and constant content after launch. More than the normal niche game cycle takes. And you have a very low chance of having a big success.

Literally only exists because a gacha (nikke) was able to fund it, would've likely been stuck in dev hell otherwise. Also ironically has less fanservice than said gacha

you can say "you're not breaking into that market", i can agree with you, but it doesn't stop anyone from trying because if you DO hit it big you're set for life. same reason sony is chasing its tail making endless live service flops nobody wants.

Red herring. Stellar blade sold well.

>if you do
Unlike the live service that Sony is chasing there are already 100s of established and long lived lewd and fanservice focused gacha games, ones willing to be R18 too unlike what most of these niche console devs made in the past.
