@RoomWithaMoose Lmao, no you're virtue signaling, gaslighting and throwing strawman arguments out there as an objective fact while trying to take some passive aggressive moral stance.

I don't need to "enlighten" myself to your vague claim that fictional media is somehow harmful to you. Everyone outside a tiny, heavily moderated echo chamber knows you're full of sh*t.

If boobs and butts in a game is so offending and "problematic" for you, don't play it. Trust me, you'll be ok. Not everything is the societal dilemma that you think it is.

@RoomWithaMoose Ditto.

@RoomWithaMoose also, no one has ever claimed games “need sex” to be successful. And other than the ACTUAL Gooner games in the adult only section of Steam, I can barely think of any games ever made that have sex in them. What are you on about?

@RoomWithaMoose

How is what I said trite? You literally just agreed with me.

You’re being incredibly obtuse by pretending the people saying “sex sells” are simply meaning “put boobs and butt in a game and it will fly off the shelf”. No. No one means that.

They mean that making attractive characters that people like to look at is a bonus that most people prefer, instead of the intentionally ugly, masculine female characters that were the norm a few years ago. This has been the case with media since its inception, which is why the beautiful people have always been prioritized in casting positions.

This is just the reality. People like looking at sexy things. There is nothing inherently wrong with that. I know insecure people hate to accept this.

@RoomWithaMoose

Sex does sell, but only in addition to a good game otherwise people will simply watch pron.

One broken, overpriced, boring game doesn't mean that people don't prefer looking at attractive protagonists in their games and other media (male or female).

Or are we still doing that prudish 2020 thing where we pretend all females have to be unattractive to appease that 3% of people that don't actually even enjoy games in the first place?

@Impossibilium Not everything is a reflection of reality.

@MBII Yes they are, no one plays Assassins Creed games for the half assed uninteresting storyline. Which is why it makes up such a small portion of the game. Honestly, look around... everyone hates Layla and the modern day crap.

@kyleforrester87 It's silly to compare launch titles to potential next gen titles. Obviously this game was primarily developed around older hardware in order to run on the PS4. They wouldn't limit their audience by releasing this game exclusively on the PS5 and Xbox whatever. Give the PS5 a year and you'll start seeing a lot better looking stuff coming out for it.
