what even are some good(or bad) examples sexual men in gaming, like off the top of my head i can think of.
visually, Clive in his dad outfit, though he's oblivious to it.
character wise i guess Zevran from memory(iron bull as well in inquisition) though my memory is hazy on both these characters.
Baldur's gate 3 obviously with Astarion but I'll shout out Halsin here because he's a less common take on it.
That is indeed a lot, but I kinda like it... however my favourite portrayal of Hera is from Smite:Meanwhile, Hera's design is a lot. I don't know how to feel about it yet. I'll spoilertext the screenshot just in case people don't want to see it until they run into her properly.
She reminds me of the new52 version of Iris form Wonder Woman.
Like half the guys (maybe more) in Guilty Gear qualify. Especially in the older art. No surprise there given Daisuke Ishiwatari and the heavy influence from rock bands.what even are some good(or bad) examples sexual men in gaming, like off the top of my head i can think of.

good point, as a newer fan going back to older design has been fun to see there evolution.

i don't to much about the undying but my first thought is hugh jackman as hellsing.I think I have posted this same thing before, but when Clive Barker jumped abroad and got the creative lead he made sure that Undying got a more sexy protagonist.

"We need the guys to catch up to women unabashedly working their sexuality. Men are so boring just standing there, dressing normally, basic camera on their face."

i started from this but just used sexual for a more catch all term since sexualised men are pretty uncommon outside of shojo VN 's. was just curious what example''s people had all round weather bad or good. and male characters who are sexual outsie of the sterotypical wominiser trait.
Bruno from Voice of Cards. Male characters are rarely designed like this. But it's a proper equivalent to a lot of the gratuitous sexualisation of female characters we commonly see in many games, I'd say, It makes for a good example when someone claims that "Hot Ryu" is basically the same thing as Eve from Stellar Blade or something stupid like that. A lot of the GamerGate chuds would lose their minds if we saw male characters portrayed like this in every other game.

reading up on how they created thane in ME2 is always fun.
What we usually do is get feedback from some people at this point, and the women looked at these and went, 'I'm not sure about that guy. He's got a giant red mark on his face and he's creepy.' And we were like, 'what he looks cool.' So we went back to the drawing board."
"We almost started right from scratch again. We were trying to reference more reptiles and marine life. Then the women around the office found out about this, and they were like, 'you guys get hot blue aliens, and we get a guy with a fish head.'
Yea, that's why I immediately jumped to Guilty Gear. Yes, an astonishingly large portion of the male cast is just shirtless, but they are also framed in a way that is definitely intended to be alluring. Anji was a great shoutout because his official art for XX has him doing that traditional anime girl lean forward pose, and he's generally presented in more feminine ways compared to others.
well jojo fan is gender all in itself.(though again goes back to that glam rock inspiration)
though that reminds me the honey bee inn in ff7 remake is a pretty good example, it's more of a drag angle but u have characters like andrea and the dancers.

oh...BOTW Zora right.
I mean there's a game I can think of that fits this and is aimed at women as well, but I don't think it's allowed on resetera (nu 🎪, if anyone gets that lol it's kinda toxic ig, but the men definitely are sexualized in a way that is specifically aimed at women). Ofc individuals have different tastes so that's something to keep in mind too."We need the guys to catch up to women unabashedly working their sexuality.

It's worth keeping in mind that women are also taught to feel a lot of shame for their sexual desires, and like they should only ever express them in approved, respectable ways -- particularly in ways that don't make men feel too uncomfortable. So ofc this is going to affect what kinds of content they feel comfortable with and like they're allowed to create, even in female-oriented mediums. (And a lot of those mediums are still overseen by men, despite being meant for women.)
Hell no. That game was shit and nu-Dante is an atrocity, let's not be revisionist here :P
Haha, that's pretty much the only game that really can hold a candle to female character designs. Nothing else really comes close as far as mainstream titles go. In most works, men must still feel cool or powerful to other men first even if they're meant to be attractive or appealing (gacha game rosters are a really great example of this), unless they're an antagonist. Case in point: Kuja.
this was my first DMC game and i actually really liked it for that, i liked DMC5 more and 3 Kinda going back to it but yeah, also thought the end of DMC was pretty cool and linked it well.
I hadn't even played any dmc game besides 4 at that point myself, so like I said I had no attachment to the series, so I just thought it was some cool combat and a really striking visual style. I did play the original trilogy semi-recently, and 2 is an abomination, DmC is Baldur's Gate 3 in comparison :p
but anyway yeah, I can't think of many more besides Dante. It usually amounts to "Im shirtless showing my abs" which while sexy sure, is a far cry to what women characters usually wear. Like lets take Johnny from GG
open jacket, shirtless, low cut jeans, pretty sexy I think everyone can agree. The problem is that if you compare it to a lady from the same game like Dizzy for example, well...
