(Game here is Parasite Eve 2)
It didn’t happen in every game but often enough that it’s noticeable. They’re usually not shot as straight-up titillation, instead going for a tasteful nudity kind of thing and intended to fulfill some kind of storytelling or characterisation purpose

I will never understand how that guy’s games have unironic fans other than that the bar for video game storytelling was so low his shit was seen as cinematic and mature
I enjoy trash so I have a soft spot for Heavy Rain. When it came out, the idea was new enough and it was polished enough that it worked, even though it fails as a narrative, which is the entire point. I’d say you can still play it for a laugh if you fail all the QTEs.
Now though, we have indie games doing the things his games were supposed to do, except they’re actually good.
Me and my friends got a lot of enjoyment playing through his games and laughing at them throughout, but I have seen people who unironically say they find his games well-written and deeply moving
I can only imagine they played them when they were like, 11
11 is such a great age to be for loving bad media because you know what you like but don’t have a bullshit detector yet. I thought Resident Evil: Apocalypse was the best movie I’d ever seen
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
i also don’t understand how that frenchie fuck somehow made the only major video game about the rich history of the American civil rights movement (by just ripping it off) while also removing all black people and actual historical context from the plot by making them robots.
Like wtf first of all, but also, step the fuck up Amerikkkan game devs & publishers. Enough with the fortnite skins and Minecraft mods. Grow some primary sex characterics and tackle that shit already. There’s so many good stories you can tell there and the inevitable political controversy will just drive sales. Stop being racist cowards
That’s just standard AAA operating procedure. No politics except the neoliberal consensus, anti-communism and fellating the American military
yeah i ought to be careful what I say because the
monkey paw is going to curl and we’ll end up with Bull Connor’s Unleash the Hounds Simulator 2025 (xbox exclusive!)
Ubisoft’s been a pioneer of the style since at least the first Assassin’s Creed. A Muslim order of assassins fighting against Crusaders is a bit too spicy for a Western audience six years after 9/11, better change them to
RELIGIOUSLY UNAFFILIATED PARKOUR NINJAS WHO FIGHT FOR CONTROL OVER ANCIENT ALIEN MCGUFFINSSomeone explained to me once that this sort of stuff isn’t made to actually explore things like the civil rights movement, but are made to make white people pat themselves on the back for “caring” so much about civil rights without actually needing to confront anything shocking or worrying about society.
