I wanna be scared and horny god damnit this is America
I mean, not to give the
any points, but hasn't this been the function of most of the horror genre for a long time? They've always made the scary movies a little horny.
misattribution of arousal and so on
Depends on which scary movies tho. Making this character in this game look more appealing to horny dudes is missing the point soooo hard that it's pretty hilarious.
Depends if it's shlock horror like zombie games or dino crisis then yes Gamers do the big horny, for more psychological horror games such as Silent Hill, Siren, or the Fatal Frame series then most characters are on avg plain or "traditionally good looking" but don't look like they have a mobile trailer following them to apply make up every couple hours.
Compared to Silent Hill and Siren, Fatal Frame's never gone for absolute photorealism and its female protagonists have basically always looked more like Japanese idols. Not sexualised*, but very pretty with overdesigned outfits you wouldn't probably realistically wear when exploring an abandoned old Japanese mansion
*That is until Fatal Frame 5, the last game in the series as of now. It's absolutely full of bouncing boobs everywhere, even on the ghosts, many of whom are buxom babes with tons of cleavage showing. The game also had a wet t-shirt mechanic that allowed you to see the characters' underwear through their clothing
True, I guess for modern standards looking like an average idol or athletic woman is average to gamers compared to the various AI generated abominations they keep making
Easy solution

s take me away if you must)
And this is the problem with the improved character design - she's wearing a turtleneck instead of a plunging neckline with massive bazongas, hence why AI is completely flawed.
