well to be fair as a man i find it uncomfortable to play love and deepspace Edit:holy hell so many likes? do ya all want me to write a essay xd Alright i gotcha: "Love and Deep Space," a role-playing game that blends romance and science fiction, invites players to explore intricate relationships in a cosmic setting. While the game offers a rich tapestry of narratives and character interactions, it can be uncomfortable for male players for several reasons, including societal expectations, gender dynamics, and emotional vulnerability. Societal Expectations From an early age, men are often conditioned to embody ideals of stoicism, independence, and emotional restraint. These societal expectations can create a disconnect when engaging with a game that emphasizes emotional depth and intimate relationships. Male players may find themselves grappling with the tension between wanting to immerse themselves in the narrative and feeling constrained by the fear of not conforming to traditional masculine norms. This internal conflict can lead to discomfort, as players may worry about how their engagement with the game might be perceived by others, fearing judgment for expressing vulnerability or affection. Gender Dynamics in Gaming The gaming community has historically been male-dominated, and many games have perpetuated stereotypes surrounding gender roles. In "Love and Deep Space," the exploration of romance and emotional connection can challenge these norms. Male players may feel uncomfortable stepping into roles that require them to be more emotionally open or nurturing, especially if they are not accustomed to navigating such dynamics in their everyday lives. This discomfort can be amplified if players encounter other participants who reinforce traditional views of masculinity, creating a challenging environment for authentic engagement. Emotional Vulnerability The game’s emphasis on romantic relationships and emotional storytelling requires players to engage with their characters' feelings and experiences on a deeper level. For many men, this level of emotional vulnerability can be daunting. The fear of exposing one's feelings or appearing too sensitive can inhibit full participation in the game, leading to a superficial experience that misses the richness of the narrative. This struggle is further compounded by the pressure to perform masculinity in a space where vulnerability is encouraged, creating a conflicting dynamic that can detract from the enjoyment of the game. Navigating Romantic Interactions The game's focus on romance introduces additional layers of complexity. Male players may feel apprehensive about how to portray their characters in romantic scenarios, balancing between being assertive and respectful. This anxiety can stem from concerns about crossing boundaries or misrepresenting the experiences of others, particularly in a diverse gaming environment. The potential for misunderstanding or offending fellow players can heighten discomfort, leading to a hesitance in fully engaging with the romantic elements of the game.
Good fucking bait, you're incredible at this. That very thin layer of heterophobia and misandry is the cherry on top, I have no doubt someone could unironically say that shit, to which we would just respond "No thanks, I'm straight, I love women. It's that simple"
The hell I want to link up with dudes in a game for, I skimed through this essay and all I find is leftist/soy yap. Bro every one in my family is more open than I am, no society or family made me the way I am as a man. If you grow up in the real world being a "straight" man comes natural. Must be a Us citizen writing all that drivel and going to a woke college no less
As a woman, I do not feel this at all. [But my bisexuality might be a factor here too] I can enjoy sexy characters, no matter their gender. And even for Zenzero, this is on tame level. I feel like people are very very sensitive about anything even slightly sexual, so much that something like a bit of exposed skin is deemed as "gooner bait". Though, if the game makes you feel genuinely uncomfortable, imo just stop playing and find something else to play.
I have heard a similar critique of other games like Azur Lane and Nikke, really just that the fan service slider is too high for some people. That said, I haven't seen people make it the devs problem in the other games like they do in ZZZ. Guess Genshin was so crazy popular it attracted people who just aren't familiar with the space.
@@senu. And I couldn't care less either way. Fictional characters are playthings, fragments of imagination. They don't have any rights like real humans do. They are quite literally objects to be consumed. Also I heavily disagree that Zenzero designs are extremely sexual. This game is nowhere close to the likes of Nikke or Azur Lane for example, who literally sell their characters on extremely obvious sexualisation. Anything Hoyo presents is extremely tame in comparison, even in visuals.
@@Evegurumithe bar is hell to compare a hoyo game to the likes of nikke and azur lane..... if someone told me we were going to put hoyo games in that level a few years ago I would've laughed but here we are ig. not even honkai 3rd was this blunt, they focused on the male audience without being porn bait 🙄
@@senu.that’s the thing. They aren’t anywhere near the same level. That’s the point of the comparison. ZZZ is extremely tame. The only thing “sexual” about ZZZ is that the female characters are very attractive. They’re not sexualized or objectified, they just have really well designed animations and physics. Genshin and Honkai aren’t lacking in sexy designs, it’s just that the animations in those games are not as good as ZZZ. They’re much stiffer and less expressive. That’s what makes ZZZ characters feel more real. ZZZ characters body proportions and outfits are all very practical with reasonable coverage that you wouldn’t bat an eye over if you saw someone wearing it in real life. If anything, ZZZ outfit designs are even less sexual than some of the ridiculous, impractical designs in Genshin and Honakai.
Heavy of lusting over the male characters. Sexualize the males the same way and you'll see them suddenly be quitet. Some of them won't complain at all if you do a lot of gay males too.
While I do find love in deepspace too fanservicy, I'd say at least the characters there all look like ADULTS ZZZ has too many child looking characeters that hoyo tries to portray as adults, that's the real problem. When in zzz I find a player ignoring Zhuyuan, Jane doe, Grace, Burnice and Caesar and instead looking at piper, I can't help but wanna ask questions.
@@ahlemlora1452 The truth is none of the characters in ZZZ looks like a child. They look anime, and anime has always tried to portray an unrealistic degree of human anatomy. It has only been recently that tourist want to blur the line between human rights, and fiction. Point is, no one will petition against Tanjiro, "a minor", getting physically abused by adults because that's just anime. But then sexualize a 100 year-old loli, now that's where I draw the line. Westerners must realize that they have an obtuse judgement in regards to fictional violence and sexualization in media, that may stem from their Religious societal upbringing.
As a man, I am not able to play ZZZ at all. Every time I try to play the game, most of my blood flows somewhere else and not enough to my brain thus I am not able to focus properly. The direction of the game the devs chose makes it really.. hard for me. I try to play the for as long as possible but I always keep coming close to the edge, it drives me nuts I almost end up fainting. I'm afraid if I accept my fate and embrace the game, I will never be able to escape the cave 😭😭
In her defence, as I recall, some ZZZ ads are, such as Jane and Burnice. Other chars are not so introduced in such sexualised, but Jane and Burnice are the current META of the game, alongside Caesar, who is not the problem, here, I suppose. I can agree that only Jane and Burnice are overly sexualised, but since they are only two chars, I can skip them. From her post, I witnessed people being offended from my remark which I believe nothing of offending someone since that particular woman (not the one who posted but the one whom I accidentally "offended") already made a hungry comment, to begin with.
From my POV, that girl exposed her POV, and that's it. She has a political side that goes towards the opposite side of the ZZZ style. So, I'll suggest her to keep playing baldurs gate and oblivion, because it is totally another style. To compare those games against each other you clearly have to have a problem to distinguish between styles. Another suggestion will be to watch anime with her eyes closed. That would be a good experience.
As a SEA bro, this is a good content for Guitar Rock bro. However this person's opinion is probably from a Toxic political correctness person not from a gamer. The gamer wouldn't play them if it is uncomfortable for them and not talk about it. And not so surprise this person mention playing Genshin Impact (probably to attack the commu). Gamers only just want to play games.
Love and deep space is 2nd in revenue world wide it’s a game about over sexualisation of men no one complains, girls salivate for Lycaon, Lighter, Anton, Seth etc so what this game has a target audience, don’t like it don’t play 😭 Also there is only one character who’s a minor Corin is 16 or 17 and not that sexualised, everyone else is 18+ and most are in their mid 20’s
Dudes its ok, honestly if you are just gona be thirsty admit it and dont try to convincente everyone that this isnt thirsty thats it, no one cares about love and deepspace for example because we are men, but please stop thinking that women tend to think as Men.... i mean we dont think as women
"Most of the time, we've been relinquished to waifu-bait and chainmail bikinis, nothing more than goner-fodder for the primarily male gaming market" At this point I think that woman lost its point, first and foremost this are just Fictional characters, Real women and 2d/3d anime characters are VERY two different things as a male I think its fair for us male to have this kind fanservice I highly believe as an intelligent being, quote on quote, "real women can never be anime characters and never equal, women should never think that they are equal to an anime character, PLEASE STOP IT". Because males will never think anime characters and Real women the same, and most of us will never ever call real women waifu, God just thinking it is disgusting. We males never even make drama out of Love and Deepspace, reality speaking whatever is depicted on LaDS is never reality, you will never find a man with that kind of character.
I think this type of people just wants attention, because I can bet the girl that posted this essay probably was simping hard about Sunday, and that's not bad, but the problem is when they want to do certain things but then If others do it they think it's bad, such hypocrite people doesn't deserve attention lmao
I wonder if these people get upset when they see women sexualize themselves, looking sexy in their outfits, or even cosplaying these same characters they complain about. If anyone compares themselves to fictional characters like that, they already lost the plot.
As a man zzz is less gooner than most games, nikke and azur lane are up there. I literally play this game for the challenges it gives me, that and the art and music is top notch.
Why are games supposed to represent anyone? Aren't they supposed to create characters people want to either play as or to see what they do and what their stories are? If I wanted representation I would look into the mirror.
I don't get why some people cry too much about fictional things, when someone say "I feel uncomfortable about this game because It have boobas😭😭" I just feel like that type of people have some mental issues, because how the hell some pixels can make u feel that bad? Also, If you really don't like the game then stop playing, nobody's is forcing you to do it, so stop playing and go to Love and Deepspace or some other games for dood lovers
Some people can't differentiate between fiction and reality to understand games are just for entertainment and isn't real life. They're also usually hypocrites because they will have something that they they enjoy like love and deep space, will not complain about that but complain when something doesn't appeal to them. I disagree with "mental issues" because some people don't have a sexual bone at all and aren't fans of sexual content what so ever, and that's fine. People are allowed to not like fan service personally, the problem is when they villianize something that they don't like because simply they don't like it.
"Same company doesn't have to have the same games" Exactly. I don't see FIFA players going to Battlefield and complaining that they can't kick a ball around, or that the players there don't run around in jerseys and shorts and vice versa. I don't see Blizzard people jumping between WoW and Diablo and complaining that Diablo is isometric instead of 3rd person. Some people just need to learn that different teams have different game directors and therefor follow different design philosophies. Also, I disagree with the serious poster about "insane jiggle physics". There's been clips of VTubers IRL (Sinder is the one I'm thinking of rn) with "insane jiggle physics" that would put even Nicole's to shame. Breasts are fat tissue and aren't densely tied to the torso. They hang. They will bounce around if they aren't held in place. That's why bras are a thing in the first place. It's why women use sports bras when doing sports (especially running or anything else that makes your body go up and down rapidly and repeatedly). I thought a "serious woman" would know such a basic thing about her own anatomy. The fact that she's even comparing ZZZ to an actual H-game like Last Origin and even calling it worse at times, even though ZZZ characters are actually clothed, is hilarious. And then she glazes BG3 for the characters "being allowed to just be", even though your companions are literally throwing themselves at you is the cherry on top. I like how she's also completely ignoring the Bi and Lesbian women who are gooning over female characters. I guess they're not allowed to have sexy women in their games because this VERY "serious" poster feels VERY uncomfortable with having attractive looking women in her game.
The moment they said zzz is worse with coomer bait than friggin NIKKE??? that right there lost me. Man this was gold I gotta ask kimiie how she feels when she streams next
I don't remember genshin or hsr having any fan service. Also alot of people are acting like purist's. I understand if you don't like a type of game but if you don't like it don't play it or avoid it. I don't like Solo leveling arise but i don't complain, i just left the game.
Well there is fan service on genshin and hsr with quite the amount of chest and bum shots on certain scenes. Just isn't that eye catching compared to zzz.
Ain't no way in hell you can be a purist during this day and age, we got grown ass women out here advertising only fans to children yet no one speaks up about it
The fact that Genshin is known for its children is wild. That's some crazy tourist level. It's like they can't see the absurd amount of milf in the game, like come on
Genshin and hsr doesn't have fan service?. You know gacha games make characters to appeal to people right? That by itself is fan service trying to appeal to sell you characters. Further more, just one example, Lisa. You're gonna look at that character, the design, voice lines, and not see the fan service?. You know fan service isn't just shots of ass and giggle physics right?. Some default outfits are made to be sexy, same with outfits that they sell, made to be sexy to a degree to sell. Raiden and Miko are based on traditional Japanese clothing but have cleavage, with the characters being incredibly busty. If you want to sit there live in the fantasy world that those two games doesn't have fan service, then go ahead.
At the end of the video someone wrote something about Houkai Gakuen 2. I just skimmed over the chars, now what's the problem? Of course I didn't click on everyone to see their age, but come on. What is really the problem again? I just think that women like to talk to each other about problems that don't exist in real life. You are never to blame, it is always someone else! That's how it is in real life too xD Oh and if I'm wrong, please enlighten me, but even when I searched on Google for skins, nothing bad came up for me xd. no idea where the problem is.
This is the kind of person that gets hired by sweet baby inc. and bankrupts game companies. If the game is not liked by these types of people then that's a good thing.
what modern gaming has shown us, we need to gatekeep gaming harder than ever before, nearly everything is lame and gay for the sake of the mythical "modern audience"
The whole gooner shit is hilarious from these normies, if these people think ZZZ is gooner bait they're gonna faint the moment they find ot about nikke,BD2, Azur lane and snowbreak just to name a few.
The funniest part is, those people can't even define the word gooner. When you actually know the definition of that word or porn, there's zero correlation to these games. Just another internet buzzword.
Ayo as a man, this are fiction, theres 2 reason here body shame in real life and overthinking of s*xu*lity, bro not all game are p*rn this are fiction and blame to the devs that designed this lmao me as a man I see muscles man in games I be like oh wow maybe I can do that too then I start training workouts gym, got motivation body goals my guy, if you don't workout you won't be fit 🤣 this girl needs to log out ans uninstall this game now😂 I'm serious but it seems lmao to me🤦 its fiction ITS FREAKING FICTIONS☠️ Extra: And maybe they see some fanart that find too much s*x*ality BLAME THE FREAKING CREATOR of that art, lol I can't take this buffon mindset man these people... go out the freaking internet 🤣
If it makes her uncomfortable she can play something else. Also "the male gaze" is just a way of trying to shame men for the way their brain is hardwired, she only hates it because she doesn't get that type of attention.
"The male glaze" and it's just men liking to look at sexy women, and that the video game market is mostly made up of men. Remember people tend to villianize things they don't like and the people who like those things because it's not their cup of tea, therefore it is bad.
Reddit just needs to be deleted off the net. "GirlGamers".. what a silly term. You don't see dudes calling themselves "BoyGamers" or "MaleGamers". We are just gamers, period. And I swear, it's always a woman or confused individual complaining about some shit regarding gaming. Can we just go back to the days when gaming was majority focused on us guys? The tourists can find another hobby.
Lol I wish you scrolled down a little more to my comment. I saw that reddit post a few days ago, and I posted my own extremely long reply. I tried to explain to the OP why she shoulnt be bothered by ZZZ, and why there is nothing wrong with the male gaze.
A lot of the women in that thread views the "male glaze" to be the worse thing on planet earth. You know, because men making something that other men would like is oh so terrible. Did you also look at the op's profile? Lesbian, feminist, and complains constantly about sexualization in games (i have a feeling in real life too hating women for looking sexy) as if it's the worse thing to happen to the world.
My damm i can only imagine what this person will think of girls in Tower of fantasy, Snowbrake and First descendant. Like i understand that some may not be into the fanservice but if thats the case then just dont play that game or that specific character.
Isn't grace the technical person of the group as in she mainly work on and fix the machines and not actually on the site itself doing rhe heavy lifting, maybe it more comfortable to do her work in it. You gotta go understuff alot
If you feel uncomfortable to play the game as a woman then dont play it, I dont understand the point of that post at all.. (Good lord just pulled Burnice today I guess my little speech from earlier granted me some good luck) 😁😆🤣
If you dont like it dont play it simple. Ever since this game came out people complain and nit pick over EVERY little thing. Just dont play the game. The game simply isnt meant for you stop complaining and go play something else.
yeah that whole post just seems very contradicting and insecure. offended at the sight of a fictional character, pixels on a screen. lol, lmao even. now to be fair i do think the jiggle physics can be a bit much sometimes but it's just a video game, i can differentiate from reality.
i can relate to an extent frm guy perspective. The game itself is fun and addictive but there is so many times where I am basically forced to look at parts of women in a sexual manner cuz its so boasted in my face, i find myself looking at almost all the female cast in a way i dont with other games because of the blatent and strategized way of blasting sexual features and desires in my face any time im not blitzing enemies to oblivion.
this video is so ass and the comment section is even more ass that i had to pause and absorb the fact real people wrote them and it wasn't an ai or something
I know where she's coming from and I would agree with her if I couldn't find anything but fan service type games. (Ie imagine if all visual novels were BL stories). That said, when you have Genshen and both Honkais, why can't hoyo also have ZZZ too? Play the other three games and leave ZZZ alone, you dont have to like everything. Also I would be careful about the "go woke go broke" narrative because rarely do those woke media actually fail financially which means ppl saying it did just don't like the content and are doing the same thing this redditor is just from the other aisle.
As a woman, I'm ok with the fanservice in zzz, as long as the characters LOOK LIKE ADULTS. I don't like the lolicon agenda that hoyo is pushing in zzz, it has significatly more child looking girls than hoyo's other games and hoyo enables the weirdos of the community to sexualise them by pretending like they'r adults, THAT is what makes me uncomfortable with this game. The release of the idol faction is probably gonna make things worst because the amount of lolicons I saw in the zzz reddit is already too high for my liking. I'm fine with Corin and Soukakou who are obvious children and the game treats them as such, I'm fine with Qingyi who's clrealy an adult but is just short, I'd give a pass to Nekomata and Koleda since they'r probably young adults, even Lucy can pass for an 18 year old but piper is such a weird case, she looks 9 and the game tries to make you think she's 40. The idols also dress like 9 year old girls but I know people are still gonna be weird about them When it comes to personality, I'd say all the female characters in the game have enough complexity, except Burnice, you could sum up he character to "dumb and panty shot". Hoyo dodged every chance they have to show any serious side to her or any backstory aspect and turned her into a tiktok meme. I actually saw leaks about her backstory and It's actually interesting but I guess hoyo judged the players don't need to find out Burnice has an actual brain and an aloof side.
I don’t get it at all. There’s plenty of games and media I would understand feeling that way about, but ZZZ? There’s nothing to be annoyed about unless you’re just extremely insecure about yourself in real life. There’s nothing over the top about these characters. They’re attractive, have practical outifits designs, they have very good animations and physics (in a very real to life sort of way not a fan service kind of way), and they game does not go out of its way at all to sexualized or objectify any of the characters outside of Jane who’s seductive personality is well within her character. These characters have all received a great amount of love from the creators by making them more than just their appearance, yet it’s these people who are criticizing it who are the worst offenders of sexualizing and objectifying these characters and CHOOSING to ignore the layers that these characters possess under the surface once you allow yourself the opportunity to get to know them.
People are allowed to not be a fan of it, man or woman. It's not "annoying" these people are insecure about themselves and don't know how to differentiate fiction from reality. Nobody is forced to like the fan service, you're valid to not like it, to not be a fan of sexualization. You shouldn't however villianize something because it isn't in your taste.
sorry but I agree with that post. I dropped zzz because the difference between male and female characters is ridiculous to a comical level. also I don't personally fw furry stuff. I wouldn't write something as serious because the game itself is hilarious in their porn inspired designs I almost applaude hoyo for lowering their class this much to get a new audience but then looking at other hoyo games even genshin is becoming a female character only game. hsr is still alright for now. also the men mentioning LDS lmao that's an otome game goofy 😭 literally made for girls only or men who aren't uncomfortable but the target is very clearly women. zzz on the other hand is marketed at a mainstream audience so of course if they cater to a side more the other is going to frown at it, it's only natural.
Absolutely nothing “porn” inspired about ZZZ’s character designs. There’s also nothing wrong with the imbalance in female to male characters not having characters with animal features or full on animals. And it’s funny that it’s usually women who complain that games don’t have enough female characters to play as, yet now when it’s the opposite it’s men’s fault. Either way if a game has far more men than women or far more women than men, it’s apparently misogynistic and catered to men only. A game either hates women or loves them too much and there’s apparently nothing in between. Believe it or not, women also love attractive female characters that’s why there’s toms of female fans and players of ZZZ because they aren’t overly sexualized and the game treats them like real people with personalities.
Otome games can’t be mainstream are u serious ? Mainstream only means popularity that’s it . Otome is not just made for just women the fanbase is mostly women because it gives otaku women what they want sexy men harem power fantasy . Yaoi is not just for homosexuals And Most their fanbase is probably females .
It really isn’t… it’s so tame. And that’s not just me saying “it’s not as bad as this”, like seriously ZZZ just has good animations and physics. The body proportions and physics are all realistic, the outfit designs are all practical and not overly sexual, and the game treats them like real people with layers and a real personality. They’re not just shallow objectified female characters. You can tell that the creators put a lot of love into these characters.
@@BuddyChy that's what these people would never acknowledge. Upset about fan service but the women characters are written to be the hero's, the strongest with wonderful personalities but let's ignore all of that because the harmless fan service hurts me.
I mean I understand that ZZZ has a target demographic but holy shit every limited character that has come out has been hardcore gooner bait in one way or another. Its not asking for much to just have less sexy and more cool woman character. The first non gooner character thats going to come out is Lighter, everyone else just had massive boobs or was loli bait. My favorite limited character is easily Jane Doe because of how cool she is in the story while also being a badass fem fatale but its super annoying that ALL the girl characters are gooner bait. At least through in a muscular woman, it wouldn't be hard to make her appealing to the "primary" demographic either. It wouldn't take much to make both groups happy.
@@emergencita9472 There are a trillion waifu gacha games ZZZ can have some husbandos too. At least if they release some dudes you can save up more for your waifus so I don't know why people are complaining so much.
.....=_= jane is "gooner bait" too, the jiggle, the stocking rips, the intro, that thing she does during skill menu. Bro just play the game it's really not that deep i assure you.
@@joshuajackson5203 not only she is gooner bait, she is the central example of gooner marketing. Remember when her trailer recommended users to use headphones? But she is also really really cool, wich brings up my issues with the argument. People act like this is a binary state where characters are either gooner bait or you are cool, when they can be several things at the same time. Now while i dissagree with OPs framing i do agree that more male characters would be benefitial. Constaly milking your whales is not sustainable for the long term, while low expender waifu havers might grow frustrated, this way let one side of your audience rest while monetizing another one. Then again we are at just patch 1.2, plenty of gachas strugle with character ratios in the first months, ZZZ has the bigger issues of having a imbalance in the ratio of A ranks to S ranks and still are trying to figure out what the fuck they do with TV mode. I think post 1.4 marketing will be what actually tells us what we can expect long term.
@@joshuajackson5203 I never said she was wasn't gooner bait but she is an amazing character in addition to that. My issue is the sheer quantity of gooner bait. I'd like more characters along the Lycaon, Billy, and Soldier 11. We don't need Nikke ass jiggle girls as every banner.
well to be fair as a man i find it uncomfortable to play love and deepspace
Edit:holy hell so many likes? do ya all want me to write a essay xd
Alright i gotcha:
"Love and Deep Space," a role-playing game that blends romance and science fiction, invites players to explore intricate relationships in a cosmic setting. While the game offers a rich tapestry of narratives and character interactions, it can be uncomfortable for male players for several reasons, including societal expectations, gender dynamics, and emotional vulnerability.
Societal Expectations
From an early age, men are often conditioned to embody ideals of stoicism, independence, and emotional restraint. These societal expectations can create a disconnect when engaging with a game that emphasizes emotional depth and intimate relationships. Male players may find themselves grappling with the tension between wanting to immerse themselves in the narrative and feeling constrained by the fear of not conforming to traditional masculine norms. This internal conflict can lead to discomfort, as players may worry about how their engagement with the game might be perceived by others, fearing judgment for expressing vulnerability or affection.
Gender Dynamics in Gaming
The gaming community has historically been male-dominated, and many games have perpetuated stereotypes surrounding gender roles. In "Love and Deep Space," the exploration of romance and emotional connection can challenge these norms. Male players may feel uncomfortable stepping into roles that require them to be more emotionally open or nurturing, especially if they are not accustomed to navigating such dynamics in their everyday lives. This discomfort can be amplified if players encounter other participants who reinforce traditional views of masculinity, creating a challenging environment for authentic engagement.
Emotional Vulnerability
The game’s emphasis on romantic relationships and emotional storytelling requires players to engage with their characters' feelings and experiences on a deeper level. For many men, this level of emotional vulnerability can be daunting. The fear of exposing one's feelings or appearing too sensitive can inhibit full participation in the game, leading to a superficial experience that misses the richness of the narrative. This struggle is further compounded by the pressure to perform masculinity in a space where vulnerability is encouraged, creating a conflicting dynamic that can detract from the enjoyment of the game.
Navigating Romantic Interactions
The game's focus on romance introduces additional layers of complexity. Male players may feel apprehensive about how to portray their characters in romantic scenarios, balancing between being assertive and respectful. This anxiety can stem from concerns about crossing boundaries or misrepresenting the experiences of others, particularly in a diverse gaming environment. The potential for misunderstanding or offending fellow players can heighten discomfort, leading to a hesitance in fully engaging with the romantic elements of the game.
Bravo 😂. Savage response 😂😂😂
Good fucking bait, you're incredible at this. That very thin layer of heterophobia and misandry is the cherry on top, I have no doubt someone could unironically say that shit, to which we would just respond "No thanks, I'm straight, I love women. It's that simple"

The hell I want to link up with dudes in a game for, I skimed through this essay and all I find is leftist/soy yap.

Must be a Us citizen writing all that drivel and going to a woke college no less
As a woman, I do not feel this at all. [But my bisexuality might be a factor here too] I can enjoy sexy characters, no matter their gender. And even for Zenzero, this is on tame level. I feel like people are very very sensitive about anything even slightly sexual, so much that something like a bit of exposed skin is deemed as "gooner bait". Though, if the game makes you feel genuinely uncomfortable, imo just stop playing and find something else to play.
I have heard a similar critique of other games like Azur Lane and Nikke, really just that the fan service slider is too high for some people. That said, I haven't seen people make it the devs problem in the other games like they do in ZZZ. Guess Genshin was so crazy popular it attracted people who just aren't familiar with the space.
don't use being bi to justify a game where girl characters are sexualized to a ridiculous degree and male characters are rare or animals 😂
@@senu. And I couldn't care less either way. Fictional characters are playthings, fragments of imagination. They don't have any rights like real humans do. They are quite literally objects to be consumed.

@@senu.that’s the thing. They aren’t anywhere near the same level. That’s the point of the comparison. ZZZ is extremely tame. The only thing “sexual” about ZZZ is that the female characters are very attractive. They’re not sexualized or objectified, they just have really well designed animations and physics. Genshin and Honkai aren’t lacking in sexy designs, it’s just that the animations in those games are not as good as ZZZ. They’re much stiffer and less expressive. That’s what makes ZZZ characters feel more real. ZZZ characters body proportions and outfits are all very practical with reasonable coverage that you wouldn’t bat an eye over if you saw someone wearing it in real life. If anything, ZZZ outfit designs are even less sexual than some of the ridiculous, impractical designs in Genshin and Honakai.
Love and Deepspace is incredibly uncomfortable to play as a man.
Why are there so many sexualized men.
there's saying "if you try to please everyone you'll ended up pleasing no one"
These are gonna be the same people lusting over the male characters in Love and Deepspace, absolute hypocrites lmao.
Heavy of lusting over the male characters. Sexualize the males the same way and you'll see them suddenly be quitet. Some of them won't complain at all if you do a lot of gay males too.
While I do find love in deepspace too fanservicy, I'd say at least the characters there all look like ADULTS
ZZZ has too many child looking characeters that hoyo tries to portray as adults, that's the real problem.
When in zzz I find a player ignoring Zhuyuan, Jane doe, Grace, Burnice and Caesar and instead looking at piper, I can't help but wanna ask questions.
@@ahlemlora1452 The truth is none of the characters in ZZZ looks like a child. They look anime, and anime has always tried to portray an unrealistic degree of human anatomy. It has only been recently that tourist want to blur the line between human rights, and fiction.
Point is, no one will petition against Tanjiro, "a minor", getting physically abused by adults because that's just anime. But then sexualize a 100 year-old loli, now that's where I draw the line. Westerners must realize that they have an obtuse judgement in regards to fictional violence and sexualization in media, that may stem from their Religious societal upbringing.
Where's the "Love and Deepspace Is Extremely Uncomfortable to Play as a Man" essay?
Maybe because the only men who play that game are into men? And ZZZ is more for everyone and not just men who like women
As a man, I am not able to play ZZZ at all. Every time I try to play the game, most of my blood flows somewhere else and not enough to my brain thus I am not able to focus properly. The direction of the game the devs chose makes it really.. hard for me. I try to play the for as long as possible but I always keep coming close to the edge, it drives me nuts I almost end up fainting. I'm afraid if I accept my fate and embrace the game, I will never be able to escape the cave 😭😭
Uncomfortable? Then go play a game you are comfortable with then. Don't need to tell the whole world about it. lol
What I don't get is why don't they just stop playing the game
Because people like her dont want to stop playing, they just want the game to cater to them instead.
because it's a good game but it's full of in your face fanservice. didn't you read the post she likes the game mechanics and aesthetics in general.
@@senu.it’s not in your face whatsoever
@@senu. how is it in your face?
In her defence, as I recall, some ZZZ ads are, such as Jane and Burnice. Other chars are not so introduced in such sexualised, but Jane and Burnice are the current META of the game, alongside Caesar, who is not the problem, here, I suppose. I can agree that only Jane and Burnice are overly sexualised, but since they are only two chars, I can skip them. From her post, I witnessed people being offended from my remark which I believe nothing of offending someone since that particular woman (not the one who posted but the one whom I accidentally "offended") already made a hungry comment, to begin with.
From my POV, that girl exposed her POV, and that's it. She has a political side that goes towards the opposite side of the ZZZ style. So, I'll suggest her to keep playing baldurs gate and oblivion, because it is totally another style. To compare those games against each other you clearly have to have a problem to distinguish between styles. Another suggestion will be to watch anime with her eyes closed. That would be a good experience.
i start to doubt the moment it accuse artist being pdf files. Is this an employee from Sweet Baby Inc?
As a SEA bro, this is a good content for Guitar Rock bro. However this person's opinion is probably from a Toxic political correctness person not from a gamer. The gamer wouldn't play them if it is uncomfortable for them and not talk about it. And not so surprise this person mention playing Genshin Impact (probably to attack the commu). Gamers only just want to play games.
Love and deep space is 2nd in revenue world wide it’s a game about over sexualisation of men no one complains, girls salivate for Lycaon, Lighter, Anton, Seth etc so what this game has a target audience, don’t like it don’t play 😭 Also there is only one character who’s a minor Corin is 16 or 17 and not that sexualised, everyone else is 18+ and most are in their mid 20’s
You see the logic of the internet is "I personally don't like something, so therefore it's bad, and anyone who likes what I don't, is also bad".
Dudes its ok, honestly if you are just gona be thirsty admit it and dont try to convincente everyone that this isnt thirsty thats it, no one cares about love and deepspace for example because we are men, but please stop thinking that women tend to think as Men.... i mean we dont think as women
"Most of the time, we've been relinquished to waifu-bait and chainmail bikinis, nothing more than goner-fodder for the primarily male gaming market"
At this point I think that woman lost its point, first and foremost this are just Fictional characters, Real women and 2d/3d anime characters are VERY two different
things as a male I think its fair for us male to have this kind fanservice I highly believe as an intelligent being, quote on quote, "real women can never be anime characters
and never equal, women should never think that they are equal to an anime character, PLEASE STOP IT". Because males will never think anime characters and Real women the same, and most of us will never ever call real women waifu, God just thinking it is disgusting.
We males never even make drama out of Love and Deepspace, reality speaking whatever is depicted on LaDS is never reality, you will never find a man with that kind of character.
I think this type of people just wants attention, because I can bet the girl that posted this essay probably was simping hard about Sunday, and that's not bad, but the problem is when they want to do certain things but then If others do it they think it's bad, such hypocrite people doesn't deserve attention lmao
I wonder if these people get upset when they see women sexualize themselves, looking sexy in their outfits, or even cosplaying these same characters they complain about. If anyone compares themselves to fictional characters like that, they already lost the plot.
As a man zzz is less gooner than most games, nikke and azur lane are up there. I literally play this game for the challenges it gives me, that and the art and music is top notch.
Submissive and shy does not describe 99% off ZZZ characters. Literally, the only one that applies to is corrin.
Why are games supposed to represent anyone? Aren't they supposed to create characters people want to either play as or to see what they do and what their stories are? If I wanted representation I would look into the mirror.
I don't get why some people cry too much about fictional things, when someone say "I feel uncomfortable about this game because It have boobas😭😭" I just feel like that type of people have some mental issues, because how the hell some pixels can make u feel that bad? Also, If you really don't like the game then stop playing, nobody's is forcing you to do it, so stop playing and go to Love and Deepspace or some other games for dood lovers
Some people can't differentiate between fiction and reality to understand games are just for entertainment and isn't real life. They're also usually hypocrites because they will have something that they they enjoy like love and deep space, will not complain about that but complain when something doesn't appeal to them. I disagree with "mental issues" because some people don't have a sexual bone at all and aren't fans of sexual content what so ever, and that's fine. People are allowed to not like fan service personally, the problem is when they villianize something that they don't like because simply they don't like it.
"Same company doesn't have to have the same games" Exactly. I don't see FIFA players going to Battlefield and complaining that they can't kick a ball around, or that the players there don't run around in jerseys and shorts and vice versa. I don't see Blizzard people jumping between WoW and Diablo and complaining that Diablo is isometric instead of 3rd person. Some people just need to learn that different teams have different game directors and therefor follow different design philosophies.
Also, I disagree with the serious poster about "insane jiggle physics". There's been clips of VTubers IRL (Sinder is the one I'm thinking of rn) with "insane jiggle physics" that would put even Nicole's to shame. Breasts are fat tissue and aren't densely tied to the torso. They hang. They will bounce around if they aren't held in place. That's why bras are a thing in the first place. It's why women use sports bras when doing sports (especially running or anything else that makes your body go up and down rapidly and repeatedly). I thought a "serious woman" would know such a basic thing about her own anatomy.
The fact that she's even comparing ZZZ to an actual H-game like Last Origin and even calling it worse at times, even though ZZZ characters are actually clothed, is hilarious. And then she glazes BG3 for the characters "being allowed to just be", even though your companions are literally throwing themselves at you is the cherry on top.
I like how she's also completely ignoring the Bi and Lesbian women who are gooning over female characters. I guess they're not allowed to have sexy women in their games because this VERY "serious" poster feels VERY uncomfortable with having attractive looking women in her game.
The moment they said zzz is worse with coomer bait than friggin NIKKE??? that right there lost me. Man this was gold I gotta ask kimiie how she feels when she streams next
I don't remember genshin or hsr having any fan service. Also alot of people are acting like purist's. I understand if you don't like a type of game but if you don't like it don't play it or avoid it. I don't like Solo leveling arise but i don't complain, i just left the game.
Well there is fan service on genshin and hsr with quite the amount of chest and bum shots on certain scenes. Just isn't that eye catching compared to zzz.
Ain't no way in hell you can be a purist during this day and age, we got grown ass women out here advertising only fans to children yet no one speaks up about it
The fact that Genshin is known for its children is wild. That's some crazy tourist level. It's like they can't see the absurd amount of milf in the game, like come on
Genshin and hsr doesn't have fan service?. You know gacha games make characters to appeal to people right? That by itself is fan service trying to appeal to sell you characters.
Further more, just one example, Lisa. You're gonna look at that character, the design, voice lines, and not see the fan service?. You know fan service isn't just shots of ass and giggle physics right?. Some default outfits are made to be sexy, same with outfits that they sell, made to be sexy to a degree to sell. Raiden and Miko are based on traditional Japanese clothing but have cleavage, with the characters being incredibly busty. If you want to sit there live in the fantasy world that those two games doesn't have fan service, then go ahead.
Ik someone who hates gachas , doesn’t not like fan service Ecchi at all if anything he hopes they censor it . But zzz is the game that put gacha pill
At the end of the video someone wrote something about Houkai Gakuen 2. I just skimmed over the chars, now what's the problem? Of course I didn't click on everyone to see their age, but come on. What is really the problem again? I just think that women like to talk to each other about problems that don't exist in real life. You are never to blame, it is always someone else! That's how it is in real life too xD
Oh and if I'm wrong, please enlighten me, but even when I searched on Google for skins, nothing bad came up for me xd. no idea where the problem is.
This is the kind of person that gets hired by sweet baby inc. and bankrupts game companies.
If the game is not liked by these types of people then that's a good thing.
what modern gaming has shown us, we need to gatekeep gaming harder than ever before, nearly everything is lame and gay for the sake of the mythical "modern audience"
People make TnA too much of a big deal. Every character even males as lewd art it’s unavoidable.
The whole gooner shit is hilarious from these normies, if these people think ZZZ is gooner bait they're gonna faint the moment they find ot about nikke,BD2, Azur lane and snowbreak just to name a few.
The funniest part is, those people can't even define the word gooner. When you actually know the definition of that word or porn, there's zero correlation to these games. Just another internet buzzword.
Speaking of azur lane have you seen those new Halloween costumes, my wallet is crying!!!
imagine if the devs listened to her and changed the game
most if not all of the zzz chars gonna be nuns
not every game is for everyone. if you dont like it play something else.
Ayo as a man, this are fiction, theres 2 reason here body shame in real life and overthinking of s*xu*lity, bro not all game are p*rn this are fiction and blame to the devs that designed this lmao me as a man I see muscles man in games I be like oh wow maybe I can do that too then I start training workouts gym, got motivation body goals my guy, if you don't workout you won't be fit 🤣 this girl needs to log out ans uninstall this game now😂 I'm serious but it seems lmao to me🤦 its fiction ITS FREAKING FICTIONS☠️
Extra:
And maybe they see some fanart that find too much s*x*ality BLAME THE FREAKING CREATOR of that art, lol I can't take this buffon mindset man these people... go out the freaking internet 🤣
Some people are unable to differentiate fiction from reality, it's sad.
I uncomfortable looking at Lucy and Piper. too young. wish they were older cuz i like Lucy's design.
I love Jane doe’s design so much I M6 her 😅
Uncomfortable to play but okay to cosplay as a half naked version of a clothed character.
13:16 "massive incorrect chest" if she's a woman herself, surely she has friends with the same size as those characters in ZZZ right?
That's the thing. Maybe she doesn't have friends...
You are very confident that she has friends to begin with?
you're too nice, maybe she doesn't have friends
@@jinatlas8674 Not confident tbh, but I still assume she might?
Poor woman doesn’t know what boobs look like in real life lol
She is someone from SBI perhaps
They will shut up once Lighter is out
If the ladies want change they better fork out the cash when lighters banner hits and I'm talking about tripling the rev of ZZZ. Money talks.
If it makes her uncomfortable she can play something else.
Also "the male gaze" is just a way of trying to shame men for the way their brain is hardwired, she only hates it because she doesn't get that type of attention.
That's too easy, so they would rather put in the effort of writing a whole research paper on why they don't like the game instead.
nah they are so attention seeking they got to let the whole world know about what they feel about the game instead of moving on.
@jinatlas8674 yeah, pathetic attention seekers. They need professional help.
"The male glaze" and it's just men liking to look at sexy women, and that the video game market is mostly made up of men. Remember people tend to villianize things they don't like and the people who like those things because it's not their cup of tea, therefore it is bad.
this is an insane comment
Wait till she does qingyi trust event 💀
im not comfortable play zzz, it hard to play with one hand
Im a woman and a lesbian and I have no issue with the game
As a man I feel uncomfortable playing Hoyoverse’s Tears of Themis
GET FILTERED TOURIST...
Reddit just needs to be deleted off the net. "GirlGamers".. what a silly term. You don't see dudes calling themselves "BoyGamers" or "MaleGamers". We are just gamers, period. And I swear, it's always a woman or confused individual complaining about some shit regarding gaming. Can we just go back to the days when gaming was majority focused on us guys? The tourists can find another hobby.
When you find out you're not the target audience
Lol I wish you scrolled down a little more to my comment. I saw that reddit post a few days ago, and I posted my own extremely long reply. I tried to explain to the OP why she shoulnt be bothered by ZZZ, and why there is nothing wrong with the male gaze.
A lot of the women in that thread views the "male glaze" to be the worse thing on planet earth. You know, because men making something that other men would like is oh so terrible. Did you also look at the op's profile? Lesbian, feminist, and complains constantly about sexualization in games (i have a feeling in real life too hating women for looking sexy) as if it's the worse thing to happen to the world.
Gatekeep the tourists
The is just someone that's upset that there's not enough dudes in the game for her to drool over yet.
lol every woman I see playing this game salivates when they see Von 😆
Bro why is this offending y'all so much? Can't people give their opinion on things anymore
And girls are often more sexualized in anime type things
Love and deepspace is a dating simulator though
My damm i can only imagine what this person will think of girls in Tower of fantasy, Snowbrake and First descendant. Like i understand that some may not be into the fanservice but if thats the case then just dont play that game or that specific character.
Isn't grace the technical person of the group as in she mainly work on and fix the machines and not actually on the site itself doing rhe heavy lifting, maybe it more comfortable to do her work in it. You gotta go understuff alot
If you feel uncomfortable to play the game as a woman then dont play it, I dont understand the point of that post at all.. (Good lord just pulled Burnice today I guess my little speech from earlier granted me some good luck) 😁😆🤣
If you dont like it dont play it simple. Ever since this game came out people complain and nit pick over EVERY little thing. Just dont play the game. The game simply isnt meant for you stop complaining and go play something else.
yeah that whole post just seems very contradicting and insecure. offended at the sight of a fictional character, pixels on a screen. lol, lmao even. now to be fair i do think the jiggle physics can be a bit much sometimes but it's just a video game, i can differentiate from reality.
play azure lane and she will explode immediately
i can relate to an extent frm guy perspective. The game itself is fun and addictive but there is so many times where I am basically forced to look at parts of women in a sexual manner cuz its so boasted in my face, i find myself looking at almost all the female cast in a way i dont with other games because of the blatent and strategized way of blasting sexual features and desires in my face any time im not blitzing enemies to oblivion.
The game, to me, is presented more into American style rather than anime, not because of just giggle physics, but like reactions and plots.
It's hard to avoid female fanservice amd especially lolis
this video is so ass and the comment section is even more ass that i had to pause and absorb the fact real people wrote them and it wasn't an ai or something
Then that woman is insecure
I know where she's coming from and I would agree with her if I couldn't find anything but fan service type games. (Ie imagine if all visual novels were BL stories). That said, when you have Genshen and both Honkais, why can't hoyo also have ZZZ too? Play the other three games and leave ZZZ alone, you dont have to like everything.
Also I would be careful about the "go woke go broke" narrative because rarely do those woke media actually fail financially which means ppl saying it did just don't like the content and are doing the same thing this redditor is just from the other aisle.
N there is Numi gooning for Azur Lane 😂😂😂😂😂
As a man, I find it uncomfortable to play as a woman in zzz 24/7, but since Seth, I feel better
???
BG3 women were ugly and unlikable.
Genshin appeals to the male gays. lolololol
Genshin Men are too boring, I remember everyone gooning over a "daddy" meanwhile it was a fucking Twink x3
I lmao so hard I fell from my chair rolling!!
As a woman, I'm ok with the fanservice in zzz, as long as the characters LOOK LIKE ADULTS.
I don't like the lolicon agenda that hoyo is pushing in zzz, it has significatly more child looking girls than hoyo's other games and hoyo enables the weirdos of the community to sexualise them by pretending like they'r adults, THAT is what makes me uncomfortable with this game. The release of the idol faction is probably gonna make things worst because the amount of lolicons I saw in the zzz reddit is already too high for my liking.
I'm fine with Corin and Soukakou who are obvious children and the game treats them as such, I'm fine with Qingyi who's clrealy an adult but is just short, I'd give a pass to Nekomata and Koleda since they'r probably young adults, even Lucy can pass for an 18 year old but piper is such a weird case, she looks 9 and the game tries to make you think she's 40.
The idols also dress like 9 year old girls but I know people are still gonna be weird about them
When it comes to personality, I'd say all the female characters in the game have enough complexity, except Burnice, you could sum up he character to "dumb and panty shot". Hoyo dodged every chance they have to show any serious side to her or any backstory aspect and turned her into a tiktok meme. I actually saw leaks about her backstory and It's actually interesting but I guess hoyo judged the players don't need to find out Burnice has an actual brain and an aloof side.
you are wrong dude... the child character is Ellen Joe, a HIGH SCHOOLER!
If it makes women uncomfortable it probably means the game is a banger lol 😅 dont let them find out about the mods...
I kind of get this. If you are a straight female, it might be annoying.
I don’t get it at all. There’s plenty of games and media I would understand feeling that way about, but ZZZ? There’s nothing to be annoyed about unless you’re just extremely insecure about yourself in real life. There’s nothing over the top about these characters. They’re attractive, have practical outifits designs, they have very good animations and physics (in a very real to life sort of way not a fan service kind of way), and they game does not go out of its way at all to sexualized or objectify any of the characters outside of Jane who’s seductive personality is well within her character. These characters have all received a great amount of love from the creators by making them more than just their appearance, yet it’s these people who are criticizing it who are the worst offenders of sexualizing and objectifying these characters and CHOOSING to ignore the layers that these characters possess under the surface once you allow yourself the opportunity to get to know them.
People are allowed to not be a fan of it, man or woman. It's not "annoying" these people are insecure about themselves and don't know how to differentiate fiction from reality. Nobody is forced to like the fan service, you're valid to not like it, to not be a fan of sexualization. You shouldn't however villianize something because it isn't in your taste.
sorry but I agree with that post. I dropped zzz because the difference between male and female characters is ridiculous to a comical level. also I don't personally fw furry stuff. I wouldn't write something as serious because the game itself is hilarious in their porn inspired designs I almost applaude hoyo for lowering their class this much to get a new audience but then looking at other hoyo games even genshin is becoming a female character only game. hsr is still alright for now.
also the men mentioning LDS lmao that's an otome game goofy 😭 literally made for girls only or men who aren't uncomfortable but the target is very clearly women. zzz on the other hand is marketed at a mainstream audience so of course if they cater to a side more the other is going to frown at it, it's only natural.
Absolutely nothing “porn” inspired about ZZZ’s character designs. There’s also nothing wrong with the imbalance in female to male characters not having characters with animal features or full on animals. And it’s funny that it’s usually women who complain that games don’t have enough female characters to play as, yet now when it’s the opposite it’s men’s fault. Either way if a game has far more men than women or far more women than men, it’s apparently misogynistic and catered to men only. A game either hates women or loves them too much and there’s apparently nothing in between. Believe it or not, women also love attractive female characters that’s why there’s toms of female fans and players of ZZZ because they aren’t overly sexualized and the game treats them like real people with personalities.
Otome games can’t be mainstream are u serious ? Mainstream only means popularity that’s it . Otome is not just made for just women the fanbase is mostly women because it gives otaku women what they want sexy men harem power fantasy . Yaoi is not just for homosexuals And Most their fanbase is probably females .
ZZZ is also for "women who arent uncomfortable" geez
@@rhapsody85 apparently all of these women obsessing over ZZZ and these female characters on RUclips don’t exist…
@@senu. "Porn inspired" me when I lie on the internet.
I do find it uncomfortable playing ZZZ.
...with one hand
I love zzz but tthis game is SO gooner bait lol from the character animations to voice acting and demos. Lmao
It really isn’t… it’s so tame. And that’s not just me saying “it’s not as bad as this”, like seriously ZZZ just has good animations and physics. The body proportions and physics are all realistic, the outfit designs are all practical and not overly sexual, and the game treats them like real people with layers and a real personality. They’re not just shallow objectified female characters. You can tell that the creators put a lot of love into these characters.
Clearly u have never played a ecchingame go play to your kids game genshin
Can you define the word "gooner" for us?. It's amazing how words lose their meaning just because the internet new buzzword.
@@BuddyChy that's what these people would never acknowledge. Upset about fan service but the women characters are written to be the hero's, the strongest with wonderful personalities but let's ignore all of that because the harmless fan service hurts me.
As a normal men, this level of sexiness is nothing. Why people become so sensitive these day, like they never see sexy girl before.
I mean I understand that ZZZ has a target demographic but holy shit every limited character that has come out has been hardcore gooner bait in one way or another. Its not asking for much to just have less sexy and more cool woman character. The first non gooner character thats going to come out is Lighter, everyone else just had massive boobs or was loli bait. My favorite limited character is easily Jane Doe because of how cool she is in the story while also being a badass fem fatale but its super annoying that ALL the girl characters are gooner bait. At least through in a muscular woman, it wouldn't be hard to make her appealing to the "primary" demographic either. It wouldn't take much to make both groups happy.
Oh no there is gooning in my waifu gacha game!
You already drove every western game studio to the ground, please let us at least have Chinese games.
@@emergencita9472 There are a trillion waifu gacha games ZZZ can have some husbandos too. At least if they release some dudes you can save up more for your waifus so I don't know why people are complaining so much.
.....=_= jane is "gooner bait" too, the jiggle, the stocking rips, the intro, that thing she does during skill menu. Bro just play the game it's really not that deep i assure you.
@@joshuajackson5203 not only she is gooner bait, she is the central example of gooner marketing. Remember when her trailer recommended users to use headphones?
But she is also really really cool, wich brings up my issues with the argument. People act like this is a binary state where characters are either gooner bait or you are cool, when they can be several things at the same time.
Now while i dissagree with OPs framing i do agree that more male characters would be benefitial. Constaly milking your whales is not sustainable for the long term, while low expender waifu havers might grow frustrated, this way let one side of your audience rest while monetizing another one.
Then again we are at just patch 1.2, plenty of gachas strugle with character ratios in the first months, ZZZ has the bigger issues of having a imbalance in the ratio of A ranks to S ranks and still are trying to figure out what the fuck they do with TV mode. I think post 1.4 marketing will be what actually tells us what we can expect long term.
@@joshuajackson5203 I never said she was wasn't gooner bait but she is an amazing character in addition to that. My issue is the sheer quantity of gooner bait. I'd like more characters along the Lycaon, Billy, and Soldier 11. We don't need Nikke ass jiggle girls as every banner.
Ik someone who hates gachas , doesn’t not like fan service Ecchi at all if anything he hopes they censor it . But zzz is the game that put gacha pill
