>Where are all the penis mods? One simple answer is that PC gaming, ground zero for modding, still suffers under the misconception that men (specifically cisgender, heterosexual ones) are the majority, when studies have shown that women actually make up half the audience. Game development still fights to retain people of marginalized genders, an effect mirrored in the modding community which requires many of the same skills. The mods they create reflect the interests of the creators and assumptions about the people playing them—but as I learned, that's not the only reason they're so pitifully rare. >#freethedong
What do you think of the state of penis modding in gaming?
i love cocks, but this article is rather embarrassing and unprofessional. why does this even need an article?
Liam Harris
>when studies have shown that women actually make up half the audience So this means that women are fucking lazy and can't make their own dick mods right? That's what I'm getting from the journobloggers words.
Wyatt Long
make them? if there's so much demand someone can/will make one. its almost like people do what they want or something
Hudson Hill
Holy shit what an insane passage.
Zachary Campbell

So get women and fags to make mods. You have people making horse asshole mods, surely there's a woman out there who knows how to code and gives a shit.
Ayden Thompson
I mean have you seen how women act?
Jacob Myers
But Skyrim has the best penis mods you could find in any game?
Cooper Gomez
all skyrim penis mods were coded by homos
Michael Garcia
Didnt you read the article? It's really hard. Theres nothing to go from thanks to games not including them, when compare to breasts you can get into it by re texturing. You have to deal with complex physics, expansion of material, coordinates, clipping etc.

No you missed the point, its white males fault that the women don't make the mods, all our misogyny and sexism scare the poor minorities away from the scene.
You can't argue with these people, even if they admit a flaw or fault, they find a way to play the evil white male for their faults.
Jason Williams
Is this guy suffering under the misconception that men don't want to mod their guy to have a big dick?

>when studies have shown that women actually make up half the audience I don't understand the correlation. Mods are made by people who use them. If someone wanted a penis mod, they would make it. Why would someone make mods for other people first? Why don't women make the mods if they want them? How can this fucking retard ask other people to do what he wants for virtually nothing?
how long will this bullshit mobile games 50% statistic be regurgitated when discussing non-mobile game markets? its been addressed every time it comes up and it still gets slung around

When a gaming journo says women make up half the gaming audience, what they really mean is that if you expand the definition of gaming to include soccer moms playing Candy Crush on Facebook, then suddenly the statistics seem 50/50.
When in reality, there's probably 90/10 male to female ratio in a game like Skyrim.
Jayden Gonzalez

Skyrim modding has literally any combinations of "gender" and genitals you can think of. What the fuck are they even talking about?

What do you think the idpol-progressive politics is for? It's literally the class ideology for parasites.

Who would have thought that adding a rigged mesh to a skeleton and simulating physics on it would be harder than drawing nipples on a skin texture?
Luke Moore
They pretend to be safe for work or some shit. Same as lovers lab being filled with moral fags.
Christopher Jackson
Skyrim has excellent dick mods.
Lincoln Fisher
Reading the archive still allows the journo's article to gain traffic in your mind and occupy your thoughts. Stealing away a click still gives them victory over your consciousness.

Elijah Ward
Skyrim has excellent penis mods though. And any game with an audience of degenerate perverts making sex mods for it is gonna have at LEAST a few who want dickgirls, there's no way that the barrier is desire.
Penises are just more complicated than vaginas to mod into games.
Jack Gutierrez
SL vendor here. It's a lucrative business if you can model and texture items. The prices are misleading in this picture. L$1000 = 5.44 USD

Justin Cruz
I think DAO had same thing where all nude males were erect. Thus proving we need better dick mods.
Xavier Howard
Almost al the people making mods are straight men.
Most men don't want to take 20-30 hours making a penis.
If you want gay modders, goto xcom.
Connor Barnes
I agree, and that's why Loverslab is based. Even the dogs and horses get raging erections.
Henry Young
>thinks the name means anything when it's a journoblogger
Nathaniel Gutierrez
so just like normal titty mods? or armor mods? or weapon mods?
I think they consider emasculated cucks as a separate gender from normal men
Blake Russell
The thing that annoys me about this article is that it was made purely to annoy people to go there and give them ad-revenue.
They know the 50% thing is a lie, they know almost all modders are men but they say this to get you to click is to they can get PAID.
Jason Scott
But a lot of women don't WANT to see flopping dongs everywhere
Asher Evans

Jacob Reyes
>suffers under the misconception that men (specifically cisgender, heterosexual ones) are the majority, when studies have shown that women actually make up half the audience. This is such a lie. The data this is based on is absolutely ridiculous. You know where it's from? A 2017 study that (obviously) put phone games in the same bag, and put some of the more popular mobile titles as "strategy". So now they think the majority of gamers are female and that females play vastly more strategy titles than guys.
On the other hand, industry insiders like Adrian Chmielarz say that from his data, probably the actual size of females who we'd call gamers is closer to around 12%, but no one wants to talk about that, when he mentioned this, people went fucking apeshit on him.
Armor mods can typically be done with mesh replacement, and even then rigging them tends to be a nightmare; usually the heavily-deforming parts are just retextures, and you switch out mesh parts. Weapon mods are also pretty easy for this reason, they're basically static meshes.
Penises aren't just mesh add-ons; you have to find a way to blend the texture to avoid super-obvious seams, and you have to rig them up to have physics when limp and also be able to get erect which means proper deformation parameters that don't exist AT ALL in the game's code.
Chase Smith
>A journo quotes gender figures and a pdf talking about marginalized genders in an article about penis mods. Does no one think it's a joke?
no shit all the gay people/women are working in the game industry already, of course they're not going to make mods that's a straight man's job
Carter Gonzalez
neither do titty jiggle but that didn't stop modders from doing it
Leo Stewart
you really can't tell these days
Charles Morales
>and you have to rig them up to have physics when limp and also be able to get erect which means proper deformation parameters that don't exist AT ALL in the game's code. Cant you have a model for erect and a model for relaxed to skip the deformation part?
Tyler Garcia
>How can this fucking retard ask other people to do what he wants for virtually nothing? Because people like that earnestly believe that they are the pinnacle of human enlightenment and we can have a perfect society if only us proles follow their orders without question.

The absolute state of pcgamer in 2019
Hudson Watson
I swear to god if someone quotes that stat at me in real life I will use their head as a soccer ball.
I mean, yeah, I guess you can, but once you've done the work of making the limp penis behave like a limp penis instead of an erect penis that's pointing down, you're most of the way there.
For some games, but again, comparatively few, and for the same reasons. There are a lot more "look, nipples!" mods than "we added boob jiggle to a game that didn't have it" mods.
Bear in mind a lot of games already have boob jiggle, too, it's just very subdued. Even Dragon's Dogma had innate titty jiggle, it was just rarely visible unless you whipped your character in a 360 and barely saw it.
Schlongs of Skyrim is an older mod than the 3D animated pussy mod. This guy is retarded and only latched onto this to bitch about it because he knows no one will bother fact checking him.

Bentley Gray
none of that stops you from doing your own penis mods when clearly the same principles used to making jiggle titties already exist and can be used for penis mods, supply and demand and all that, if a girl is that thirsty for dick mods she can learn and make them herself.

Women represent 50.2 percent of PC gamers across all genres, including social (Facebook, Kongregate), versus 49.9 percent for men. So Facebook games

what a fucking retarded article
women only make up like 10% of the audience for non-mobile games
also the people who usually mod dongs, detailed abs and nipples on male characters are not women but gay men. In fact, women watch more lesbian porn than vanilla. Seeing simple male nudity literally does less for them than seeing female nudity.
Nude mods are made by men who want to see tits and ass. If the few women that played these games wanted to badly enough, they'd make the dick mods themselves.

What are some half-decent sources of videogame information? Weebs have their sources, I use RPGCodex for the autist crpg niche, and mostly glance around Yea Forums otherwise (Used to use RPS, as they'd occasionally feature interesting indie but not stupid hipster shit games, but they've been worse than ever for most of a year now).
Gabriel Gutierrez
It gets clicks and certainly got more than a few from this thread.
Jordan Miller
It's because white people (and westernized Asians) are all closeted faggots and hate any and all depictions of the female form, so all porn is bad unless it's gay shit, then it's amazing. And a survey straight from Nintendo themselves showed that 90% of console-owners in Nintendo households were men.
Andrew Watson
Woman if asked in a safe relaxed setting for a survey, if she is a gamer: >teehee, well i play a little bit of The Siiiims~ I guess i am a GAMER GIRL, rawr XD Woman if asked by someone she wants to impress, if she plays games: >ew no way, i just play some stuff on my phone, i'm not one of those nasty sweaty gamers
Adrian Nguyen
Walking sims and "games" (cutscene collections with quicktime events) like Telltale. TWD S1 and TWAU were the only halfway good ones of that bunch, but even those hardly qualify as games.

It doesn't need an article. However, pcgamer needed some clickbait content and the writer needed $10, so now we have this irrelevant shit.
James Diaz
Wrong, it showed that 42% of women surveyed owned consoles while 37% of men surveyed owned consoles. More men could have been surveyed, and the margin of error is enough that they could be practically equal anyway across a larger population.
That was an unweighted survey with a likely skewed sample (men may be more likely to reply to a request for a survey) and is practically worthless as an examination of demographics across the whole console consumerbase.
Aiden Edwards
>when studies have shown that women actually make up half the audience The same kind of number jostling they use to perpetuate a massive gender wage gap.
Juan Anderson
I hate this kind of articles most - with some truth hidden underneath truckload of bullshit that invalidates whole thing and anyone who tries to agree with at least 10% of things said in it. It's true, games have difficulties with soft things - dongs, boobs, butts, clothes, pillows, fur, plants and so on. You can argue that games oppress nature, because there's fuck all vidya where trees are not invulnerable immovable objects able to take nuke explosion without a flinch. And tech is there, for at least some sort of semi-realistic simulation, it's just not used, because all resources go into high-res textures and high-res models which then act like granite statues no matter what they are made of.
Ryan Sullivan
So the white males are responsible for every horrible thing in the universe? Serious question. Someone answer if they think so.
Adam Jones
>men may be more likely to reply to a request for a survey As someone who worked as a faggot who rang people up to get them to do surveys this is definitely false women love doing surveys. At least in Australia.
Christian Reyes
Actually, the gender wage gap myth comes from the fact that the numbers WEREN'T jostled. They're looking at raw, unweighted data. When you actually weigh the data and compare it with other governmental sources, you see that the wage gap comes from the fact that a higher proportion of men take jobs that pay more and negotiate for higher salaries and raises.
