Why are the female characters in Japanese games overly attractive?

What if the women outside are also sexy, what do I do?

You are living a very sheltered life if you think any of the images in the OP are larger-than-life attractive. They would be 8/10s in reality, the bottom one a 7.

They are to be executed on the spot.

Because no one actually wants to look at ugly people and Japan hasn't succumbed to the destructive Jewish miasma like the west has

Talk to them. Go be happy about it.

Avoid interaction as well as you can. If forced into talking with them, don't look at them. Like at any part of them, just face other direction while speaking. Maintain a calm and emotionless voice and attempt to end the interaction as quickly as possible.

Tony Taka is the name of the artist, not sure of the characters name though. Like that other user said it's from the Shining series.
His art is kind of same face-y, but I love how soft and cute his girls look.

Because appealing to people who buy videogames is a good thing

The east appreciates beauty, so they try to recreate it to the highest quality.
The west envies beauty, so they try to degrade it to the lowest quality.

But I like it when devs appeal to people who don't buy video games

There's market research that goes into it, no one likes ugly female characters, neither male players of any age group, nor female players of any age group. Infact a lot of games take a hit when their female characters are ugly.
The only people who want ugly characters are people who don't play or care for videogames.
It''s ok for male characters to be ugly, there's no correlation for them.

No they don’t lol. Their point is that the roles that women get in games typically reduce down to sexy lingerie and window dressing. Like a dude in games can be clothed or unclothed and still be a protagonist, but women’s clothing and armor has to be sexy for her to get attention. Even if you disagree with their problem with it, this much is fact. If you’re gonna criticize it, at least represent it accurately. I’m tired of manchildren on Yea Forums fucking passing down their stupid understanding of left wing positions to the clear youth on this board who take it on good faith.

The thing is that it’s not a beautiful - ugly dichotomy. There are attractive vidya characters that aren’t sexy in a way that’s completely body centric.

God insects are so fucking ugly..

fucking Amen. If the game is some kind of fapbait where its all tits and asses then sure go nuts, but when I'm playing a modern game where every guy is dressed like normal people and then the only female character walks in wearing fishnets and a dress that cuts off 75% of the way up her thighs, why the fuck is there such a stark difference?
I don't care if its fappable, give me a real reason games need to do that shit.

But most of the games with sexy women make them important and capable as any man though?
Get your shit together

This is all complete bullshit. When they say that the roles that women take in video games are typically reduced to sexy lingerie, they are ignorant and are talking about shit they don't know. They just get all fucking buthurt about some scene ore some stupid poster they saw on the street and judge the whole game based on an ad. They don't play video games at all. They are activists, and are just like the conservatives that think video games are satanic. I remember some of them calling pikachu the devil.

>give me a real reason games need to do that shit
The women breath through their skin.

Attached: Plant.jpg (1920x1080, 954K)

Sure, I’ve seen some that do, but the point is that they have to be made explicitly sexual in a way that sells their design as fapbait. I don’t care about ada Wong - she is sexy and capable and clothed, which is totally fine. The problem is that a lot of games either relegate women to secondary roles as window dressing (less of that happens now), or when they’re a protag, they’re suddenly also eye candy necessarily. This is a far cry from bayonetta, whose character is entrenched in sexuality so it makes sense. The problem when every jrpg girl has to be a titcow with boob windows or else people complain.
You don’t have to be remotely left to even see this is a thing. Usually I find this adherence to all women being sexy something that cumbrayns or younger teens do to defend some idea of sexuality. No one is against sexuality - but when all characters of a certain type sexual, all the time, it’s not good
Sexy isn’t even bad, but there’s no contrast

Lol

>Buzzwords
opinion discarded

Dude I’ve been playing games all my life and it’s easy to see. Look at the fucking myriad of SF costumes. That’s a game where it’s okay for characters to be sexual since it’s about physicality and all, but notice how the default costumes for the women characters are way more scantily clad than for women - ryu has to get a skin to get his shirt off

>buzzwords
Which ones? I’ve used none in recent circulation.

List the games that let me see female characters wearing fishnets and a dress that cuts off 75% of the way up her thighs and I'll tell you if it's a problem or not.

I don't see any insects, just a cute anime girl cosplay

You got one example down, but do you even play street fighter?

Balance out ugly western characters

>tfw into shorter women
>tfw American diets make them into fucking hambeasts easier than it does for average height women
Life sucks.

lol yes, I've been playing since 3 alpha. SF was less pronounced in fan service way back when.
Like, we all see the fan service and we all see that women's image in games is filtered through being sexy in vidya. This is just a basic fact. If you're telling me that women aren't disproportionally designed for sexuality on the male audience than men (and keep in mind, your Conan type shirtless dudes aren't even a full example because that's not exactly what women find sexy in characters - look at the difference between fujoshit vs what you fap to). If you argue otherwise, you're literally blind to industry forces.

Why can't you equallity bitches just understand that men and women have different tastes. I mean, you even said it yourself when you referenced conan and other half naked dudes in video games. I don't understand why can't the game industry just divide itself so some games are made for men and some games are made for women and some are made for all ages?

Larxene? She had about the same number of appearances in Chain of Memories and 3, but Chain of Memories is probably the shorter game.

"Just work out and get a haircut" wont fix ugly.

But it isn't lol. What counterpoint do you have? Beefcake isn't typically sexy for women in media. Most of them find fantasy through men who have traditional notions of power such as social status, fancy clothing, social grace, sharp features that aren't just a square jaw, etc.
>So you fags just basically want women to do whatever they want while restricting men in doing what they want?
No, first and foremost I'm here to highlight the forces that drive the market and how they reinforce this stuff. Men REEE when women develop for series they subscribe to or criticize their view of women filtered through video games. Men then tell women and SJWs to make their own IPs...and then they do, and then men REE that such games exist on platforms like steam. This was exactly what I saw when a night in the woods threads.
Different games will have different characters that look attractive or not, men or women. The important part is that they look attractive in different ways, so that we can actually have games that represent more different types of characters. We already have a lot of male characters like this, from wimpy protags like shinji to kenshiro - anime, I know, but bear with me. I like characters like bayo, and I like playing dead or alive sometimes. The problem is that men on Yea Forums push back on other people making games that simply don't have characters that don't comply with their idea that women should always be sexy in games. Why do you REE when your point is that "hurr leave us alone?" This place was the number one critic and reactionary, not the "okay let them make their games, we'll just ignore them"
Also most of you fail to realize the market forces for why Japanese characters are sexy. They're sexy because it's a cheap sell, not because they appreciate women more lol. Look at the yaoi there. Sex in general is just commodified more openly than in the US. The problem is that it gets exploitative - the real problem

>Beefcake isn't typically sexy for women in media

Why females overly attractive?

>overly attractive

>SJWs to make their own IPs...and then they do
They do, and they also spread their gospel to big AAA developers. They don't just create indy games, they are completely invasive to the whole medium.

>beefcake isn't typically sexy for women in media
LMFAO. Women don't like seeing ugly, fat, scrawny, hideous dudes on tv. they don't flock to their shows or buy their posters. they eye chad-looking actors, not beta male faggots with dildos hanging out of their assholes, you stupid retard.

>overly

Kill yourself.

the 3DS version is actually a remake of AC2 and has nothing to do with Ass Horizon and yes, it's really good

Also, it's patronizing that you guys are selling sexy women as "it's game for men, I'm a man, what, this is for me." I like sexy shit from time to time, and hell, I'll play something absurdly sexy with my gf from time to time, but men are allowed to like women that aren't constantly sexy or are cool in their own right. I'm sure you like the sexual imagery for various reasons, but it's annoying when all the media all enforces one single ideal under the guise of preferences.

Also before you fags get on me with the "hurr durr, are you saying violent games cause people to shoot people" - no dumbfuck, violent media is a way to safely explore intense reflex challenges and conflict in a safe way. Obviously the game is about attractive conflict. But when everything pertaining to women is sexy in games, the idea is that women can be nothing but sexual while men can be either depending on the character. That's the problem that the left is arguing.

>user I'm sorry but you have gone full retard for sure this time
Still no counterpoint. Dude, talk to a woman who plays games and ask her why Adam Jensen and Leon S Kennedy are more attractive BJ Blazcowiz

Yes, but video games are media, and numerous studies show that media reinforces specific cultural roles between men and women.

Most don't. Again, these people who express their ideas in games do so because creative directors. Nobody is being "forced." Even though games are a product on the market, they are also pieces of entertainment made by the tastes of their developers.
Also, what exactly is the problem with diverse characters? People say they're forced, but exactly what diversity isn't forced to you? It seems that just the presence of nonwhite or women characters sets this board off.

Depends on what you mean by diversity. I'm a straight white dude and I like playing as straight white dudes in my videogames, and games that won't let me play as a straight white dude are inherently inferior to the ones that do.

Think a dude who's well dressed, has a face that registers slightly more model / metrosexual, well groomed, and is a smooth talker. Abs aren't the gold standard - they're a bonus, but the physicality of abs aren't the draw to what's attractive to them. I even said:
>Dude, talk to a woman who plays games and ask her why Adam Jensen and Leon S Kennedy are more attractive BJ Blazcowiz
in another post. A lot of people found young Leon without abs, sorta unsure of himself but confident nonetheless, just as attractive as Chad RE4 Leon.
This isn't anti sex at all. There's nothing about "real life" that diminishes fantasy here - it's about
how games reinforce our ideas about women. Numerous studies have been made on this. You can have women, you can even have sexy women, but the problem is when it's *nothing but* sexy women who can only be a character in their own right if they're sexy.

This is more believable, but you started with the inherently absurd statement first and that gave the game away.

Which all suck compared to just making them all attractive. Characters in videogames exist for my entertainment, if said characters are not appealing to me, then I am not entertained and I am not going to pay for your game.

What about it? It's a shitty game that sucks and it's general was a straight dose of tumblr when it was on /vg/. That really was a game that was only good for the porn, Lobotomy Corporation and Touhou games have plenty of appeal other then sexiness, it's just that the sexiness is part of the appeal.

Humans (both male and female humans) like seeing attractive female characters and also like seeing attractive male characters, that's what attractive means. No one cares about what specifically (you) find attractive you niggerfaggot.
Diminishing the experience of video game players by making characters less appealing is not a sensible course of action. Although it may please a couple subhumans like yourself, you don't play video games so you don't affect the profits of video game developers. Therefore japanese video game developers choose to make visually appealing characters, leading to what you see in the OP.

I thought filling your games with attractive women got you millions of sales? That's the argument I keep hearing.

Holy fuck, the iq level is below freezing. What a total moron. Newsflash, you hideously ugly motherfucker, people like looking and playing good looking things that have an aesthetic which appeals to them. Game aesthetics shouldn't be universalized to appeal to asexual faggot bitches like you.
