(Game here is Parasite Eve 2)

It didn't happen in every game but often enough that it's noticeable. They're usually not shot as straight-up titillation, instead going for a tasteful nudity kind of thing and intended to fulfill some kind of storytelling or characterisation purpose

    i also don’t understand how that frenchie fuck somehow made the only major video game about the rich history of the American civil rights movement (by just ripping it off) while also removing all black people and actual historical context from the plot by making them robots.

    Someone explained to me once that this sort of stuff isn't made to actually explore things like the civil rights movement, but are made to make white people pat themselves on the back for "caring" so much about civil rights without actually needing to confront anything shocking or worrying about society.
