the answer to most "why don't corporations do X with vidya?" boils down to "market research is the gospel"

plus I would imagine there's a shortage of animators versed in animating quadrupeds

devs are too afraid to let us play as children
what makes you think they'll let you play as shai hulud?

It would sell like hotcakes though, theres literally no triple A game that lets you play as non-humanoids in a true 3D environment.
Spore was literally the last one and it was temporary.

imagine for the last fight you are really playing demon or midir, wouldn't be kino as fucking fuck?

>zombies are all the same in resident evil
>still no people on whellchairs
>or old people
>or kids
>or babys
the only close to a whellchair guy was that game from around 2001 , with a house , it was kind of skoopy but i can't remember the name

that one half life spook mod, afraid of monsters had a wheelchair monster

also there WAS going to be a zombie kid in outbreak but he got canned

>no RPG where you control a monster and have to kill an increasingly intelligent, mass evolving species. Progressing through vast alien jungles composed of world trees, giant bioactive caves, cloud mountains and other crazy environments.

Because furfags like you are a monority

>muh monster girls
>muh anthro
>muh humans boring

People with functioning brains subconsciously relate to actual humans more and this games stating that hem sell better, it's simple business but I wouldn't expect a low IQ denegerate to know that

It is the gospel you dumb fag, otherwise it would have no reason to exist.

>See that species?
>You can exterminate it

>muh you're just a furfag defense
And you have the gall to call OP low IQ
You don't even see the irony

>People with functioning brains
People with functioning brains would know how to type,ESL tard.

>FURFAGS, FURFAGS
obsessed and rent free

>monority

anthro and monster girls are humanoid you fucking brain sink

i really, really like the idea != It would sell like hotcakes

yes i considered this game to be good

we need market research because all the successful companies have market research, so sayeth market research

Theres some cool looking indie game coming out which name I dont remember, but I guess it was devolver whos releasing it. You play as this weird looking mass of flesh, bones and teeth. You move across walls and air ducts and devour people

Paarl is humanoid, he just walks on all fours

Yeah its called Carrion
devolverdigital.com/games/carrion

Just the ability to progress a world as something totally inhuman would get attention

As close to a human as a gorilla is.
Structurally he's completely different and his skeleton, disregarding the skull is totally closer to a bear or cat than human

> he thinks humanoid = human

i guess that goose game is getting attention
and there's that platformer with the snake

but executing the idea is a different story, and i think AAA studios would rather not take the risk

you can play as bladewolf in the metal gear rising dlc.

It's just a fucked up human skeleton as is the case with the majority of the beasts in Bloodborne
I can see the resemblance though

Humanoid is largely defined as bipedal with the upper arms being used mostly for tools and general non-movement related purposes. Generally associated with higher level intelligence, and non-primitive behavior.
Pearl is clearly (again, disregarding the skull) a beast, his proportions are also far closer to a standard quadruped than a humans.
