>>36917809How is this different from Tomb Raider's sales of the original series or the Neptunia games or Arcana Heart? Waifu as incentive isn't new and really they're just cartoons. You're getting worked up over people beating their dick to cartoons. Guys beat their dicks to underage character like Raven, Marinette, Mabel Pines, Betty Boop (who was canonically 14 for her debut and fapbait to the boys in uniform) and the like. They're not real girls, they are idealized and/or artistic representations of girls.
There's really no need to escalate and overreact to a consumer base you'll never meet and really don't have much to go by judging character of each one, so coming up with a strawman representation of what they might be is really stretching it. Especially if some of these people have a source of income that allows them to buy a new console in the first place, so obviously they have to interact with society or else they don't eat or buy things. Probably far removed from the image of the basement dweller sponging on their parents' retirement or government NEETbux, I'd say.
For fuck's sake, it's just a videogame. If they want to buy it and enjoy it for that reason, a sale's still a fucking sale. If you don't want the game to make any, that's your problem. If you're concerned about the "wrong" kind of consumerbase existing, you invited that stress in your life so it's your funeral.
