"Just go play your dress up and otome games"

I'm so sorry rant incoming

As much as I love a good dress up game, combat games are what I gravitate towards and it sucks that even today with the influx of female gamers there isn't any at least gacha wise that actually wants a female audience. They only want us for bait and then drop us again. I have never asked for a 50/50 ratio ( because oh I know thats asking for too much ) but a 2:1 is still too much? I literally only started this game because of Brant, didn't do any research on the game prior and I realized this game was NOT for the female audience whatsoever and Brant will be the only male char we will get for the unforeseeable future which is disheartening. The fan service is bordering on hard to ignore, most of the female characters have no personality or meaningful bonds outside of fangirling over Rover. Their designs are literally just long shirts with underwear and boobs popping out. I know this is the norm for gacha games but some variety would be nice. I really wanted Carlotta because of her Shadowheart VA and fun combat but after playing her in the story and seeing her backside literally doesn't have the dress and its just underwear poking out is annoying and now I'm not too upset I lost the 50/50 over it because I don't want to have to be staring at her underwear all the time.

The entire Shorekeeper arc is so cringe it lost any desire to pull her character outside of meta reasons. I'm not a husbando only puller but its hard for me to want female chars when that's all they are just relegated as fan service and male fantasies. I am excited for Phoebe for her magical girl combat and she seems to have some promise as far as character development but after her and Brant idk. I love the combat in this game and the open world and it sucks there really isn't an equivalent where it isn't just a fap fest for straight men

edit: I see even this community is not the right one to post considering the influx of downvotes I am already getting. Oh well, I can't be the only female gamer who wants more quality to the games they play
