    Some do it just to meme or be funny. Especially ones that make these kinds of posts.

    The ones you really have to worry about are the ones that get mad when you mention something about a character that is not accurate. They will publicly execute you. Worry about those ones.

      I don’t know the context of the meme but i guess she doesn’t look like that in the game or something? They did their waifu dirty? These jokes seem quite harmless and light.

        That’s the thing, the whole waifu crap.

        Like people talk about it as if they’re real persons and treat them as such. It’s borderline psychotic.

          The thing abaout “waifu culture” is that most people do not actually think or act like fictional anime characters are real people. They do it to troll, or be funny, or act stupid, whatever. Like circlejerk subreddits or other online boards where there is some joke that gets perpetuated that everyone in the community thinks is hilarious but everyone outside thinks is stupid.

          Yes, there are a tiny few that do, but not a significant number of people actually think that way.

        In the game, she supposedly has well defined muscles, and slightly larger breasts I guess? I haven’t looked at her enough in the game to really remember it by heart.

      I agree with you. I think this is definitely one of their cutest characters. I really like the cat girl character design when it’s harmless and light-hearted. People get so into this stuff and act like they are real

    I would guess the absurdity is the point. People trying to make each other laugh. If it bothers you, you don’t need to be there.

      You say this, but on TikTok people are genuinely so serious when they comment on stuff about the game and Zenless. “I need her bro” or “I’d do anything for her"

        Just watch out for those that went too far and negatively impact real people and go off on those ones. It’s a waste of your time and effort to go after each dirty joke like this.

        Well then let them. It’s no skin off your back and no one else is actually getting hurt, so just ignore it.

    IMO any content that idolizes immature bodies is bound to attract the worst human beings possible, by design.

    Man, am I glad I grew up with less horny games. Like Tomb raider, Metroid or Shantae.

    The real reason is probably that we said comparable stuff, just as whispers and not written in an anonymous forum. And we weren’t even egged on by forum culture or our games to be as horny as possible, the former drives engagement while the ladder drives sales.

      I was going to say, there were definitely horny games but you wouldn’t talk about them in the open.

      Honestly genshin and honkai aren’t even that bad. You want a bad one, look at nikke. Ass and titties jiggle physics: the game.

      I would argue Shantae is definitely horny, the games have some innuendo jokes specially the DSi one.

        Yeah, I was just pulling your leg. Being a goofy goober. Why would you read this very specific list of games and think I was earnest?

        Tomb raider had infinitely many rumours about a nude-cheat because boys were so thirsting about Lara Croft, while Metroid and Shantae reward fast playthroughs with bikini pics.

    I get an extreme amount of secondhand embarassment reading these comments don’t get me wrong but at the end of the day its just some people doing some weird jokes on the internet. Even if the things they say are their actual worldview nearly everyone on the internet lacks the influence in the real world to enforce their worldviews to the masses so what does it matter if they say such stuff on the part of the internet where their kind of people usually hang out. I’d say live and let live in this case. No need to hate your fellow humans just because they hold different opinions than the popular ones or the ones you hold.

      Nah, objectification of people is fucking gross. That doesn’t change if you say “it’s just a joke, bro.” And it does matter when enough individually powerless people take up an idea. That’s literally how movements start. Like the MRA movement, for example, and now we have Andrew fucking Tate.

        But they do not take up the idea, because they do not take it seriously. That is what it means to have a joke, no?
