what?
NSFWImagine thinking that the right one is actually targeting lesbians instead of just being more goonbait for cishet men.
I mean, some girls can be gooners too, but I get your point.
The preferred term is goonette 😤
Goon-her
? I 'ardly knew 'er!
Trying to figure out if this is supposed to be a slight towards the “woke” implying they’re okay with sexual objectification of women as long as it’s in an LGBT context, or if it’s a slight towards the gamergaters implying that they’ll deny that something is blatant fan service for cishet men just because of the most superficial level of queer-coding.
The first one:
and the layer on top of ‘signalis’ which i had to look up but the characters are like, fully dressed so idfk
Signalis is not goon bait at all. It’s classic tortured sapphic stuff. This person needs help.
I mean, lesbians historically have a hard time being made into goon bait for cishet men. It’s hard for them to find stuff catered towards them instead of it just being malegazy shit.
this is a very online joke poking fun at very online internet lesbians
Look how little clothing she’s wearing. The female gaze at work.
I think she’s technically wearing no clothing other than the holster and the chest plate. I say the chest plate because I think there’s a depiction in game of Elster wearing a combat oriented outfit that has a blue chestplate
I don’t remember if the game ever gets into how much artificial skin the replikas have or how accurate their anatomy is
surely there can be a difference between tastefully doing sexual themes and simply being pornography
Signalis has a bunch of body horror stuff. Most of the enemies are hourglass shaped female androids with wide hips, but also they’re weird zombies like the Silent Hill nurses where the sexualization is just one aspect of it. The game has a bunch of themes involving idealized humanity and the consequences of it. Like it’s implied at various points that the androids are actually the ruling class and humans are kinda like domesticated pets.
Also yeah there’s lesbian stuff in Signalis but it’s just kinda normal romantic pining and tragedy not like explicit whatever. I really like Signalis and I thought maybe its niche appeal would mean only people who understand it would be into it but I guess not
Like it’s implied at various points that the androids are actually the ruling class and humans are kinda like domesticated pets
Yeah but not even in a fun way since humans are used as disposable labor in stuff like mining and they’re given worse living quarters
This can be read charitably. But I’m not sure if it is just based on the pfp.
this is the same kind of stupid thinking that makes people go “oh but the men are sexualised as well! look, they’re shirtless and buff!”
