Scantily Clad Guys in Games
-
So I was curious to know what you guys think of the evolution of sexualized male characters in games.
I remember some of the older characters like Regnier from the past but it's seemingly increasingly acceptable as a practice

More and more it seems like studios are shipping out gender equality when it comes to sexualization. The recent Beach Party Tychus is a perfect example of this.

I mean look at his bulge. And even the new Conan Exiles provides you with an "endowment" slider for character creation.
I know I'm loving the shift, since women are sexualized to the point of being close to naked in games regardless of their role. But I'll be honest, I'd be less upset about it if the scale were more balanced.
Thoughts?

By me, I found Leon S. Kennedy in Resident Evil 4 to be the sexiest character ever.

He is cute for sure. But I was mostly talking about guys that show a little skin.

I'd argue that almost all of the male characters in fighting games are scantily clad, just like King from Tekken and Zangief from Street Fighter. It's just that the graphics are getting better and better. I even got a boner when I fight random thugs in the Batman Arkham series.
