sadly thats a common thing with dragon quest games, there always have to be a woman who uses sex appeal

I honestly thought it would be best for sylvando to be the only one with sex appeal skills

even serena would make sense cause she is the beautiful girl and innocent, so it would be kinda funny to see her try sex appeal skills and getting embarassed or failling constantly like the twack ability xd


but yeah jade doesnt really make sense

Act 3 can be seen as a separate universe and I don't trust the dialog about the previous reality to "vanish" .

Jade was raised on her late childhood to adulthood by a pervert old king so it makes perfect sense that she learned from his bad habits and her abilities reflect this very fact as she uses the charm stat for these specific attacks. Also that scene with Booga helped put that overconfidence into check because she thought that she could prevail alone and became reckless.

I'm glad that she got sexualized because that's the reason why Japanese games stay relevant in the sea of bland sanitized western games. I do hope that they continue the tradition. Serena is more on the cute side in this game.

Well, I didn't expect a few comments anymore. Strangely enough, I don't mind sexualization for comedic purposes rather than tragic ones. As Tsune said, imagine how hilarious it would have been for Sylvando to expand on it or Serena unlocked it with 10 percent chance of shy pox. It would be her most overpowered ability but a side effect is lurking.

As for LordKaiser, I know she was raised by a pervy king but I think keeping her confidence in check could've been handled differently. This is some serious stuff especially for children and people having a trauma of a similar real life situation. It's just too bad she just embraces her new powers afterwards as if she owned it. I don't see her like this. She could have just as well have a training arc as much as Rab would've had. Expand on her spear for example and introduce attacks for massive damage at the cost of some MP.

And I don't think sexualization should be the sole reason why Anime is still relevant. I mean, most popular shonen Anime have some real pervy moments and nowadays the market is filled with loser guy/big boob women relationship story arcs. The most important thing is the story for me and if that revolves around a pervy Manga creator/Anime creator's perviness I bail. I've seen enough Anime with good stories that don't need a perv to succeed (Gundam, Princess Kaguya and Grave of the Fireflies come to mind. Maybe One Punch Man Season 1 has perviness in it, but it's not a central character's focus. I don't know about Seasons 2 & 3). It is possible, but the market often times wants "fan service" in it.

This game is rated T in America so it's for teenagers, not for children at all and they can handle themes like this.

As for people with trauma, that's a problem specific to someone and I'm not in favor of having sanitized story elements because it traumatizes people that suffered a specific trauma. In fact I see that game developers today are afraid to explore certain themes for fear of getting cancelled. Things that used to exist during the 90s and early 2ks.
