>>45315158Western devs didn't like putting women in their games, at least not in active roles, compared to Japanese devs who didn't really care, because there was more of a macho culture for western game devs especially in the late 90s and early to mid-2000s.... Not so much anymore because there are plenty of studios that have a much weirder hyper-conscious culture now. But basically, smth like Danganronpa which has a half-female cast wouldn't really exist in a western context, except now in games like TLoU2 which are too hyper-conscious to really be "fun" or easily consumed
