Topic title





For the fanservice, I mean nothing innately objectively "wrong"with it. In the context of sexuality in this case specifically. This being CE, duh...

Like puff puff and stuff.

Gamergate is garbage and gamergaters are garbage people.

Fanservice is pandering under another name. I don't object to it, but I don't want to hear anyone who enjoys it whining about media 'pandering' to any other demographic.

Oi oi Oi! I wasn't even thinking about it till someone in another thread had the bolas/tamakin to insinuate gamers are for/care about gamergate. I mean the nerve... it's just rude. Right? Right.

Also, Foppe/Poorly, is that where puff puff originated from? I always thought it was from Dragon Quest, personally.

While theres some woman on that, the people who mostly chant that tends to be the waifu/anime/comics/video game loving crowd.

They couldn't care less about "woman empowerment", they just want to see tits.

Im not touching the first one (i still dont feel i understand it enough to judge on it), but i agree with the second one.

If it doesnt hurt anyone, why should it be illegal?
Espicially if its a media where you can just... not buy/play/read/watch/listen to it, if you dont want to.

Though i do like the idea of having multiple options in a simple product so you can customize your experience. As an example i love the idea of difficulty settings, espicially the ones that you an customize.

Easy Normal Hard is good... but being able to select WHICH parts of the game are what, is even better.

I mostly object to the nomenclature.
'Fanservice' implies you were already a fan, and not merely drawn in by the prospects of underage pants.

Gamergate or GamerGate (GG)[1] was a loosely organized misogynistic online harassment campaign and a right-wing backlash against feminism, diversity, and progressivism in video game culture.

I mean, pantsu comes in more than one size, so to speak. Not just "underage."

Some even come with zippers.

Point being, don't be narrowminded. It's boring, and not a sexy look my guy.

America is definitely the major source of the prudish attitude toward sex within the Western world. It's just such a whacky place with how they can't do anything about people constantly shooting each other but you managed to get some states to ban porn now. What a place.

Nah, there are still some groups it's kosher to make fun of, such as furries,
or being very open about wanting to spank it to cartoons. They're called fetishes for a reason.

But that's kind of different, no?

Let's not pretend it isn't common of the US to do things that go against what people/Americans in general actually want.

It appeared in Dragon Ball before Quest.
That said, he was the character designer for Quest so he might be responsible for it to appear in Quest.

Anybody that voted gamergate isn't garbage, care to back that up? Or should I take the silence as a fact that you actually can't prove it otherwise? But are shill for that shit, and will gladly put your head in the sand for it, at it's best, and at it's worst, be partial to it.

And for the those voting there is something wrong with with fanservice, as I explained in the opening post. Care to point out the innate objective "wrong" in it?

honestly that was true almost immediately after it began. they would pick a couple journalism ethics things to be very loud about on social media but if you went to any of their actual discussion spaces it was just eternal complaining about women and minorities in the most pathetic way possible.

It's an oversimplification to say there's "nothing" wrong with fanservice, but plenty of acceptable and even good things have "something" wrong with them. Pedantry aside, I agree with the basic premise.

What an obnoxious read

"This pokemon is the biggest"

"No it isn't here,'s the numbers"

"I said it was big I'm right"

"You said biggest"

"Yes, so I'm right"

Gamergate is an incel movement and nothing more.

The main issue with fanservice is how straight male-centric it is in modern works, not it's existence as a whole. titillation for straight women and gay men is also perfectly fine, but less represented in works due to...the obvious. The solution is simply having more types of fanservice for everyone.

Corporations are removing fan service from games, but not because they care about feminism, or "woke", or any of that.

They remove fan service from games because it generates controversy. Not because three blue haired lesbians on twitter that have five followers complained and you want to make them responsible, but because they want to win game awards, and get good reviews, and they have their heads up their asses and don't want to be associated with trashy or cheap media.

No one is sitting around considering what woke lesbian feminists think, except right wingers who want to blame them for all the problems their beloved capitalism causes.

fanservice is one thing. But lazy fan service is another. Weve gotten a lot more lazy with fan service over the years. Theres no effort being put in to half of these characters.

I bet you a lot of the anger would go away if there was just a quality product.

Bayonetta is pure da service and camp, and she wears it on her sleeve. And everyone loves her.

generic anime waifu #46273 is just aggravating to everyone except incels.

so just be quality.
