Still weird that in Tomb Raider Underground, a game that Toby worked on, the camera is fixed on Lara’s butt instead of the normal behind her shoulders.
So many games have a “we don’t condone being horny for this character (especially when it’s a teenager and/or the daughter figure of the protagonist) but the camera is horny for the character” thing going on. The pandering to gross nerds is so fucking obvious.
The thing is, the camera really fucking sucks and makes playing the game worse. Sometimes you can’t jump right because of it. No idea who thought doing this was a good idea, if horny gamers wanted something, they can already just make Lara wear a swimsuit or whatever and look at it on the main menu.
As I’ve said for decades regarding bad game ideas or bad gameplay ideas and the treat hogs that oink for them: “JUST WATCH PORN.”
Smearing tacky horniness into bideo bames that are ostensibly there to be played as games first is like dumping sugar into everything, including where it really screws with the present flavors.
I think there can be horny scenes in a game, but mainly if it’s for humor or for some story reason. Some games really feel like porn and it’s bad when you just want to play a game and that shit pops up. I recently said that when I played the weird pseudo-Gacha Metal Slug game (you can’t use real money), they made all the characters, except the main ones, with really horny designs that have nothing to do with the Metal Slug art style.
I’m not anti-sex or anti-sexuality in bideo bames if it feels thematically relevant or at least doesn’t detract/distract from the rest of the game. Silent Hill having sexual body horror enemies and themes is a running recurring theme, but the chud demand to have a sick and dying character look Hollywood hot while sick and dying in bed is fucking clownish.
Know how chuds whine about “gayness being rammed down their throats?” It’s rich because they demand cishet bland horniness with dubious underaged characteristics to forced upon everyone else.

The original sprite characters were cute and attractive in their own way, yes that goes for the male ones too. Regarding the gacha trash weeb/otaku pandering additions: what the fuck, game devs? Does everything have to be a Konami style thirst bait delivery system?

The pixel art is pretty good and it does look mostly ok (a lot of reused and edited art), but the art that appears when theres dialogue it’s fucking weird. (Fio, Iri and that two other girls, Nadia and Leona look normal) They also sexualized the two girls that give you items (I remember that she had a pretty funny role in Metal Slug 3D)
What is worse is that they had less horny designs that they changed to hornier ones. Madoka (Support Npc that gives you items in the original games) before and after. Besides these having nothing to do with the Metal Slug art style, I think theres one that is legit a basically naked catgirl.
Madoka went from “attractive woman I’d ask out on a date if I was single” to “more doe-eyed le sexualized but le innocent waifu slop for the weeb slop hogs” in that art direction pass.
Earth Defense Force - a B-Movie in game form - has a big problem with the Wing Divers. Their civilian outfit is great, a nice practical flightsuit. Then… their combat outfit is hotpants, and their future-warfare outfit is vertical hotpants. I can accept that it represents a great leap in cyberpunk clothing technology, but…
Anyway, to get back on track, the Ranger’s biggest problem is that when he sprints the camera zooms right in on his butt and you can’t see anything else.

Good gravy. The pandering is so universal and lacking in thematic consistency that it’s just le monster girl fetish fuel there.
May as well have a slime girl with weapons stored inside her slime body too, just to hit all the fetish checkboxes.
