Like I have no opinion on the actual game but seeing people like "Finally, a sexy game again!" is like watching someone salivate over a carton of Soylent.

But DOA is good sexy! No, no the boobs silly! The way Tina hits such gorgeous Enzuigiris, Tiger Drivers AND Ocean Cyclone Suplexes proving she is the true successor to Inoki-ism, King's Road AND All Japan Women!

I just wish horny games outside the VN space could be horny in interesting ways instead of looking like either cgi porn without the porn bits or like flash games
It's literally the type of horny that makes you turn off the 3d category on e-hentai.
i've come to the conclusion that unseasoned sex appeal is, in itself, kind of a kink for some people. the overt objectification you see in video games or 90's pin up spreads or mobile game ads has elements of the kind of dehumanization you see in like, exhibitionism and stepfordization/bimbofication. i think you rarely see it presented quite that purely because the idea of it being a kink subverts the kinkiness of it for the viewer- which is the other half of it. i think the uncommented normalcy is part of the appeal, the idea that you're being catered to is part of the viewer inclusion in the kink. it's hard to distinguish tho because those are all types of sex appeal that are pretty politicized online.
That’s a very interesting take, I hadn’t thought of it that way before but I think you’re really onto something with this.
i definitely ascribe to the viewpoint that "straightforward heterosexuality" (or whatever you want to call That Thing) is in itself a kink -- the difference is that it's normalized beyond the point of being a kink. it's just the one kink that the hegemonical viewpoint supports and thus doesn't attempt to marginalize.
God you're probably right and it's the purity is what really trips me up. Lacking that little bit of context I want so desperately from so much stuff but nah that's actually part of the kink 😭
