@redneonglow@mischievoustomato There are a number of interconnected factors. Bandai Namco, Kodansha, Kadokawa, et. al have ESG pages. It's in the building. The S in ESG represents "social justice" —how open a company is to critical race theory, diversity mandates, and drag queen story hour. It also works to justify changing the content of Japanese games at the source to match so-called cultural norms around the world.
CERO, the ratings board for Japanese games, has also become much stricter when it comes to rating games and panty shots can make it harder to get low ratings. Hence the tendency for devs to use black voids, have the characters wear spats, or change the control so as to block looking up the dresses or skirts of characters.
We can also say that the Tokyo Metropolitan Ordinance had an effect on the availability of printed material from 2010 onward.
All of these things work together to harm anime, manga, and videogames. There can be no question that the amount of fanservice and spicy content has dropped compared to how it was in the 80s, 90s, and even early to mid 00s.
@roboneko@heavens_feel@mischievoustomato@redneonglow People need to learn to view he progressive/woke stuff as a disease. It spreads. You can't stop it from spreading. The only time it can't spread is once all the possible host bodies are dead, i.e. you need another video game market crash.
@scarlet@redneonglow We also need game devs and reps to just tell twittards "this game is not for you" when they complain about attractive characters, panty shots/fanservice, fun gameplay without woke lectures in the story, games that aren't live service, games that use simpler graphics without raytracing, etc.
There are already plenty of games for the wokies. We weeb gamers need more games for _us_.
@heavens_feel@redneonglow Whatever parallel industry we try to build, the infection will spread from the diseased industry into your new venture. Gaming needs to be purged before we can even consider supporting new games. We're better off with a video game crash, one that is far worse, more extensive and longer than the '83 one. After that you might have a chance at rebuilding.
their real mission was to line Anita's pockets. That's what 99% of the money went to, that other 1% went to paying for an accountant who would justify it on paper. Femfreq spending was even worse than Trans Lifeline.
@heavens_feel@redneonglow@scarlet I'm not making a weeb game but I fully intend to take this stance if I get wokies shitting on my game for any reason whatsoever
