gay

>>386957246
Generic or nonexistent personality
Every woman in the game falls for him for literally no reason
In general a Mary Sue

Shit weapon design and animations.
For example, I hate "spin-to-win" attacks, and I will drop the game if I have to use it all the time.

>>386957246
If it's an American game:
Short brown hair or buzzcut
Sarcastic
Aloof
Lots of quips

If it's a Japanese game:
Black hair
Young
Possibly no face
Either afraid of sex or a huge pervert

What about self insert female characters?

Paid cosmetics, specifically ones like "Gold Scorpion-Spider Demon Horn Death Hood" and other shit that not only ruins the atmosphere but is extremely distracting.

to the MC of any recent harem anime that /a/ likes?

>>386957875
Yes it's a huge problem with anime as well. I never claimed otherwise.

But I'm talking about video games, as this is the video game board.

What the fuck is a self insert male mc and why is it bad?

>>386957723

There really aren't any self-insert female protagonists outside of the otome genre.

Only basement dweller get mad at this because they literally every girl in highschool ignored them.

>>386957943
>I can't read the thread
It's sloppy (or nonexistent) writing as well.

Obviously I don't care if the game is like a platformer and dialogue, story, etc. isn't prominent at all, but it's not okay in a game that tries to have more than an excuse plot or is character driven.

This is why I'm happy when a game has a female protagonist, because you're that much less likely to have to put up with self insertion bullshit

>A majority female cast shows had autists calling everyone a lesbian
Why is this?

>>386958181
If you watched that episode, you know the context of that scene anon.

>being funny is a self insert

>>386958260
Boyfriend would reduce mushroom and poison time, so she killed that feeling for now to focus on her passion?

>>386958273
I don't think the BDs are even out yet are they?

All versions out to consumers currently are streams, be they digital streams or TV Streams.

having a majority female cast because 9 times out of 10 it means that the game is focused on fanservice for waifufags (or worse, yurifags)
even western games have this problem sometimes and it's a pretty huge turnoff

>>386958578
I'm fine with waifufags, yurifags are cancer though.

I honestly bet a huge chunk of them are AGP freaks.

A self insert is fine if they are integrated in the game well enough

>>386957095
no walking animation
characters feet don't match inclines.
characters clothes are a bunch of flappy shit like trenchcoats, etc.

>>386958020
Female characters really can't be self inserts the way males can. Part of the appeal of a female character is her looks and personality together.

She doesn't want to admit it. She likes to bully Akko.
