G@mers would literally rather code a gay woman to be straight than just play Female V.

    the sex scene with panam is hot and the idea of being mindlinked where you are fucking someone else but also fucking yourself is wild and cool

      That is a cool concept and that did slap. As always you can feel the male gaze-ry in how the female romances are the most thought out followed by queer male and straight female at the bottom

        this is a really good point. haven't played the game yet, but I'm guessing the lesbian romance feels like its written by a straight guy?

          It definitely feels like the studio knew that their audience would mostly be men - whether their characters were male or female - and the priority given to the in game characters reflects that. Both female love interests are essential characters to the games plot while, iirc, both male love interests are attached to totally missable side quests

        Nope. Titties and everything.

        Witcher II and III also had fairly explicit sex scenes, like prestige TV nudity explicit.

          :kombucha-disgust: those screen effects were really unpleasant. very hbo softcore otherwise.

          also strange for the gimmick to have been pov-switching in first person then just randomly taking the camera out?

            i dont know what you expected from a mainstream game

            like full on hardcore explicit penetrative sex?

            anyways its conceptually hotter than it is visually

              i didn't expect anything, just observing it was kinda hbo-y and had a weird relationship to the camera lol

                yeah they do this cut from cameras in the tank to the points of view of the characters and it bounces around it feels a bit disorienting but i think thats the point
