In real life, I dont like people who go around shooting up cities.
In video games, I tried to depopulate Los Santos with a four man death squad and a humvee.
Truly, the hypocrisy will drive me to sepuku myself out of shame.
Yeah, that was going to be my counterpoint to OP as well. This is some Jack Thompson shit.
I don't like senseless violence...but video games aren't going to cause any senseless violence.
I don't like demons...but portrayals of demons in video games aren't going to summon any demons or anything.
I don't like women who act ridiculous...but I'm fine with attractive virtual women in video games.
Also, I like how OP's image went out of its way to pick the most intentionally overtly sexualized characters or franchises, as if that proves some point. Dead or Alive, Bayonetta, and Stellar Blade all stood out in large part because of how they portray those characters, and how most games don't do it to such a degree. It's not the norm. IRL thottery is obnoxious because it's become so normalized.
The aforementioned games aren't going around getting in your face if you're playing other games. Thots will come in and thot it up no matter where you are. It's voluntary virtual sexiness versus, you know, often near mandatory exposure to some level of thottery. Which again, is also more important because, you know...real life?
Whining about a few video games you don't have to play would be more like going to a strip club and whining about the strippers showing too much skin. Don't like it? Don't go to the strip club / don't play games with very sexualized characters.
TL;DR: OP is a retard.
