But as a fan of Japanese games, I have to admit I am pretty insulted by both the action and reaction towards Japanese gaming. From the attacks on developers' games by sites like USgamer to the reaction of game companies refusing to localize games that would mend their already badly damaged relationship between the cultural exports of Japan. Why does a fandom have to do a letter writing campaign for Xenoblade while gritting their teeth year after year as Square Enix refuses to localize a Dragon Quest title? Why did the tables turned on us gamers whereas back in the day we got the mainstream badass games while the rumored panty quest was only in Japan?

Between Konami's decision to abandon gaming or Square Enix's decision to abandon us on THE mainstream RPG and shitty reviewers insulting us, I don't know what was worse.

If you consider a Vita game being sex positive, then it sadly pales in comparison to Western Games which have done it a lot better than give me a couple of cgs of suggestive eating and fluids.

I got banned from that site just by saying in the thread something like – I'm going to buy this and see what all the fuss is about, make my own mind up what it is.

There's two sides: the sex-positive/self-empowering side and the helpless victim/outcriers' side.

I'm tired of the latter attempting to speak for us all.

If anything, it was Japanese media that gave better examples of sex and sexiness being positive, and not just for men by far.
