The production of the newest"DEAD OR ALIVE" series title has started! DEAD OR ALIVE is a fighting action game series, first released in 1996. So, this year m...
Why do you think it’s amazing? There’s an entire genre of adult games available that were never possible before. How would dead or alive, a twenty year long franchise, suddenly be crossing the line?
Its a mainstream game series. Tentacle-rape-simulator-sengoku-jidai-7 doesn’t get a lot of flak because its not on the shelves and its got an audience of about 50. There was plenty of fighting about them when they had their turn in the spotlight, and im pretty sure a lot of them got delisted on a lot of sites thanks to the “think of the children” crowd.
I just find it weird to be honest. Same with marvel rivals. All their character designs and especially paid costumes are clearly just made to show as much skin as possible. And that for a game that is aimed for kids. I don’t think children, young adults or adults need to be sheltered from nudeness. But it’s just to make money and for people to play their mediocre game. Same with the doa games. No one on the planet ever thought about playing their shitty games if it weren’t for the boobs.
With the world slowly regressing over the last few years due to pushback from people who opposed society becoming more tolerant, it actually isn’t that surprising.
I don’t know. I think adults should have their place. I remember festivals where adult shit went on. Every big event kept getting more family friendly. And ruined the fun of getting drunk, smoking pot and seeing boobs. But then they decided every fucking event had to be family friendly and they brought cops in to enforce it. Then it wasn’t long before the event just stopped happening because nobody wanted the Disney version of fun adult events. It’s really not fair to take away the rights of adults to have adult fun. That being said, this thirsty bullshit isn’t for me. Like, it’s just sad and kinda pathetic to me, but let adults have silly adult fun as ridiculous as it is. I don’t think DOA is really adding to rape culture or anything.

Accurate thumbnail choice for the series.
I’m imagining getting a headshot of Kasumi, upon which she indignantly says “Hey! My breasts are down here.”
Yup, came here to say it’s clear this is all about those breasts. Amazing it flies in today’s world
It’s Japan, they dont really care about things like these. Just look at all their anime, games and doujin market.

This series has never had a problem though. Saying it s amazing it’s made today is ridiculous, when the games have always been fine.
There’s lots of things that we never had a problem with before that we have a problem with now. Blackface on TV for instance.
Not sticking my hand in this hornets nest and saying pros and cons for any of this stuff, just trying to explain why the other guy is surprised.
Except in this case the black face genre is booming

They’re just filling a niche and it seems to work for them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
At this point, it’s closer to a tradition than anything. Its more of an eye roll thing at this point. Real fighting game fans don’t play this.
True
