nothing but eyecandy
Not what you initially said.
I love this game so much and I’ll always defend it against all the eye candy accusations.
The implication was that being eye candy at all was in itself an accusation it needed defending from, which is where I extrapolated the rest.
Good if that wasn’t what you meant, but this is an extremely common talking point so I don’t think me coming to that conclusion was unwarranted from the context.
I’ll always defend it against all the eye candy accusations.
Why? What’s wrong with the game being unashamedly eye candy?
ISTG I hate this entirely american puritanical “can’t have fun sexy things” horseshit.
The character design is literally Kamiya and Nakamura’s fetish fuel, they themselves reported vibing super hard on the character design and insisting sexy librarian glasses were a must.
It’s one of the best action games of all time, its presentation is deliberately excessive in every way, that includes hypersexualization, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that.
you’ll never be able to see Bayonetta other than one of the most badass action game protagonists of all-time.
Also this implication that being a badass somehow overrides being hot? Excuse me? Since when? If there’s anything that enhances hotness, that is hypercompetence.
Being incredible at something so effortlessly that you still look stunning while doing it is a force multiplier, not a contradiction.
The only streaming services that make sense to me are the niche ones that focus on original content.
Wrestling streaming services like njpw world, trillerTV, or wrestle universe, specialised libraries like Shudder.
Generalised shit for mainstream content is not worth the money.
