It honestly makes me uncomfortable when people (usually men) dress up every female character in the most lewd and risqué outfit they can find.

I’d see the same shit in SWTOR all the time with guys with their self-insert characters parading around their waifu companions in slave girl outfits.

    yea

    there’s nothing wrong with sexy but G#mers dont know what that means and instead turn outfits into “G#mer Sexy” completely devoid of actual sexy which isnt even porn level, it’s honestly even worse

      Sex and sensuality is a cool and good part of life.

      Perpetual gooner shit feels plastic, even toxic, and I argue it saturates whatever it’s dumped into to the point of making the game/movie/show’s plot and themes less enjoyable while at the same time making it less sexy overall.

      Ever see that famous “pottery” scene in the 1990 movie Ghost? That was sensual and sexy. If the movie was gooning in every scene with bikinis and bondage wear (or even dubiously aged cartoon characters going “NYAAAAH SENPAI”) it’d have been garbage.
