Uhhhhh... Oh God... Part of My brain cells just died...
His talk about being able to legally play Mature Rated games especially DOA is very stupid, does that apply to any other Mature Rating game like MK, GTA, COD too? Oh wait maybe because their western mainstream gaming and has blood & violences (possibly sex & genitals which Japan does censor) which is considered acceptable, but games like DOA, Senran Kagura, or Moero Chronciles (Moero Crystal) which has sexy female characters & may contain ones that look or are actually minors (considering age of consent in various countries, along with what is allowed in various media) the devils work and should be removed from existence.
Part of the rating was one thing, but when he starts talking about competitive play & strategy this is just beyond a simple theory, that theory is just illogical (unless if that person gets distracted too easily or is shy by a female present),and it is highly unacceptable. If I was working for YouTube or a FGC community that wants to contain a peaceful community or deliver proper news, that video would be removed or that article will never be part of the news (even if I get criticized for censorship) because stuff like this is not be accepted.
When he starts bring up that sexy costumes are "key gameplay" & "strategic game elements" for DOA, it really sounds like he doesn't even know or has ever played DOA at a competitive level & that strategy is just pure non existent which if they were pinned against high level DOA players like MASTER for example that person trying to use very revealing costume would fail, and even without these sexy costumes that person would still fail because of the amount of practice from countering, delivering powerful combos along with using parts of the stage to leading their opponent near death, & preforming the Izuna Drop. DOA sexual content is not part of the gameplay, its just an optional costume and there is no advantage (like SC IV customization), and it adds no strategy for competitive play. His comparison on DOA sexy costumes & MK below belt move barely qualifies as comparison especially gameplay.
Even the information about Sexual Arousal Slowing Reaction Time were just pulled from other sources that may or may not be accurate, along with "what gets Men to feel stimulated" mostly comes from something else and may possibly not even played DOA in their entire life. Even if I was to use revealing costumes when playing DOA, my reaction time would never drop because of costumes (DOA is pretty tame compare to other games with ecchi content or hentai) since I've been a long time DOA fan.
Why would high heels & body figures or poses even effect Men's attention? That would be like using Anna Williams (Tekken) high heels or seeing her poses will make men get distracted (which her poses only happen intro or outro cutscene) just so your the top Tekken player.
"What about female players? Wait do those exist?" Wow... talk about some research... these guys even know what a woman likes, but they may get distracted by the guy's butt. Oh wait, woman's reaction time isn't fast anyway... (just shoot me, I don't want to live!) Even those studies about females like "sexual arousal for Men" may not be accurate, or the tests involved didn't have games like DOA (assuming these kind of people really care about games).
Their video was just worst thing that ever exist, and I don't consider this entertaining. Their information about high level play is just non existent, the sources they've only used may have nothing to do with gaming or people's attraction could be something completely different, talking like sexuality is the key to defeating your opponent, and their talk about females especially saying something like "do those exist" just shows how lazy this information is & didn't want to put any effort looking up DOA competitive scenes, makes it sound like woman's attention span is weaker than men!
"Game Theory: The Strategy of Appeal in Dead or Alive" deserves to be deleted, and their information should be wipe clean by delete it from computer or take their document about their strategy put it in the shredder. These guys deserve that F, like part of their video when Superman's weakness is involved.
