    They publish games that focus heavily on getting new swimsuits for their “daughters”. What did they expect to happen?

    100% this is just cover for them wanting to have a monopoly on the sexy content of their characters. Cause the main appeal of these games seems to be how sexy the characters are so if you could go to some other website and look at them there instead then you wouldn’t need to buy the game.

      Agreed, I do find it interesting they’re being protective of the IP at all given that it seems they’ve kinda given up on it and delegated it to just being about idol volleyball for that sweet mtx money. Maybe they do intend on making another game for the franchise. Honestly they should just go all in on the sexiness instead of their half-assed attempt at making is take them seriously.

    From the same series that has two volleyball games.

    With a focus on “social” gifting including skimpier swimwear and suggestive posing.

    With a story that revolves around a rich pervert wanting a bunch of young girls in bikinis running around.

      The “parents” released two games called “Dead or Alive: Extreme Beach Volleyball” (1 and 2) where they were in skimpy swimsuits and they literally had a team of developers that focused on “jiggle physics” to make sure their breasts bounced as accurately as possible. Nice way to treat your “daughters”.

      On a side note, content aside, those were actually good games and it wasn’t like they were going pure ecchi, the volleyball portion and side games worked pretty well.

        There’s also Dead or Alive Xtreme 3, which has all that plus pole dancing scenes and VR support.

      With jiggle physics. I remember laughing so hard when played the original on Dreamcast.

      Yeah, they are from a fist, kick and melee combat game where they perform maneuver that would easily cripple or kill people in real life; but sex is amoral.

    “Yes officer, this company right here: Koei. See what they said? Now look at the game. Holy shit, there’s definitely something wrong, right?”
