I am at a loss for words on how a company can sell sex to mainly kids just for a fast buck, I have seen some pretty strange things in my time playing MMO but this games advertisements takes the cake lol.
Man oh man I can see now why women get offended, we as a people use them as objects to sell things, do those devolpers even have daughters, wives, mothers lol, no wonder we as a people are so messed up, look at how they sell a video game, what's next, posters of a half nude chic eating a Big Mac on a Mcdonalds poster outside of a drive though or how about nipple pasties on Wendy from the fast food join Wendy's, yeah that will sell some double cheeseburgers lol.
We live in sad, sad time people, very sad lol.

yes..........the scarlet blade ads are pretty dumb. Very dimeaning to women if you ask me.
Waht a cheep way to advertise a video game. I guess they need to do what they need to do since the gameplay and publisher are both rumble.
Well, that's one point of view. This is not my sort of game but I say "go kids, have fun and someday you will have the real thing".
Also "I know porn and this is not porn".

'Sandbox MMO' is a PTSD trigger word for anyone who has the experience to know that anonymous players invariably use a 'sandbox' in the same manner a housecat does.
When your head is stuck in the sand, your ass becomes the only recognizable part of you.
No game is more fun than the one you can't play, and no game is more boring than one which you've become familiar.

Start with a billion dollars and make an MMO.
Sex has been used to sell almost everything for years upon years..even games.
If youre not used to it by now, I dont know what to tell you.
Someone obviously has never watched porn.
Contrary to what some people think, video games aren't just for kids anymore. The avergae gamer is in their 30's. Yes, it looks sexist. Yes, it looks like utter crap. The great thing is if you don't like it then you don't have to buy it. If enough people do this then the game will die. If that doesn't happen and it becomes popular...yay capitalism? Different strokes () for different folks.
Edit: I bet the OP has no problem killing thousands of virtual people and creatures in an MMO but boobies??? STOP THE FREAKING BUS!!!
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
Seeing as the game is based on Queen's Blade, think it's pretty spot on after looking it up. Most anime is over the top, why would the video game be any different.
Personally, tried the game myself and it's just your regular F2P game on what you'd expect.

Uh oh, they crossed the invisible arbitrary line that OP drew in invisible sand. Sex sales, blame the people buying, they create the market.
In the meantime, take a look at the games your playing and realize they glorify violence and murder... Something that should be far worse than sexuality. Why is exploiting one ok but not the other? The US is so backasswards on sexuality and violence that its ridiculous.
The answer is because its just a damned video game. It's fantasy make believe, get over it.
i dont dissagree with anything that was said here exept one very key point,
this game is not catering to children ITS A MATURE RTED GAME., sorry but lets be honest here most games havent been made with kids as a primary audence for a long time.
now that aside ya im not really for this game. for alot of reason
F2P may be the way of the future, but ya know they dont make them like they used to
Proper Grammer & spelling are extra, corrections will be LOL at.
Sex sells. Sex sales is related, but... different.

is there little half naked children in it?
all ive seen are legal looking women.
If you've seen the first ads, before they "matured up" the faces, then you'd know what I mean.
It's getting worse lol.
Not commenting about the "game" but rather about that stupid example you gave of a BK commercial..
If this was a guy in a taco commercial with similar innuendo people likw you would still bitch and moan that it objectifies women. Women can and do enjoy sexuality just as men do, sex sells to both sexes the fact that the target audience of a game is mostly teen-age males with some disposable income does not mean that the developers/marketing people are some sexist pigs.
The sad part is that when femenism started it was about the libiration of women a key part of which was the liberation of their sexuality. Now we have insane women crying about objectification(when they objectify themselves just as much if not more than males) , and more importantly men with a white knight(or in most cases just pure old mysagonism) complex thinking they have to be the vanguard of every pair of boobs on the planet.
Women are quite capeable of taking care of themselves, heck they have been running the pron industry since the late 80's, and in advertisements women and gay men are 3 times most likely to add sexual context to the add(at least in copyrighting) than straight men.
If you care so much about social equality find a cause that will be actually worth to fight for, there are plenty of god honest battles out there. Saying look guys we are bad cuz we like big boobs is pointless, either you are one of those man that want women to get back in the kitchen wearing a chastity belt. Or you one of those guys that is so incapable of finding a women that you think point guarding for their sex will help you score.
Both men and women are capable of handling their sexuality on equaly, i see no issue of having sexual content in a game which is aimed at a sufficiently mature audience. I doubt you have any reservation to the fact that male characters in most games(well western games at least) look like the love baby(unless you are a republican than replace that with the spawn of satan) of a 3 times olymic swimmer and an underwear model. But oh noes some another cheep game tries to get some more players with big boobs and slutty outfits, call the PC hotline we have a really bad case of sexism!
/sigh
I preferred the earlier ads.
Yeah but the rating is useless, I remember when I was a kid I use to con my mother into letting me buy and rent r rated movies and games, well the games at that time didn't have ratings but you know what I mean.
Kids will find a way to play, nowdays we download everything anyways, all that stop a kid is a age verification, how many under aged kids just input "Yes" I am over the age of 18, hell I cought my 13 year old son watching porn on his I phone few weeks ago lol
aaaand the discussion is over. (:
good guy Draemos
Well, you can't remove your avatars clothes without paying at least $20 otherwise the underware is locked in place.
So, people that are going to see any kind of nudity in the game are those that pay for it.
As for degrading women, I know quite a few lesbians that love this game and cheer that someone finally came up with it..
So, when you were a kid it was not only ok for you to watch R rated movies but despite watching and playing R rated movies you still developed a certain moral system and established some sort of boundaries for "right and wrong".
I suspect kids today can and will do this as well.

For sure I agree with you on this, my point is how low a company would go just to sell a product, it is getting worse I do not remember seeing Ads this bad when I was younger, also as someone said above I agree with how we view killing as OK but not nude chics, this was just a post to pretty much point out the balls some companies have to sell a product when they dam well know this is more targeted for kids even though they say it's M rated, it's only M rated because they can't rate it any lower by law.
Back in the day cigarette companies use this tactic before it got outlawed, remember "Joe Camal" lol
No it's not based on the queens blade anime. There's no license whatsoever. The only thing the share is a name and scantly clad women. Admittedly, it's easy to confuse both give the similarities.
There's no reference whatsoever in the game to anything closely related to the QB anime franchise or Hobby Japan, which is the producer of the ????????? visual novels. As far as i know, the only game based on the VN/Anime was a PSP game or smt.
Ahem, that being said, the game is not that great to begin with. Played a couple of levels and got bored. Generic MMO 163851513855 (OK, OK, not counting the ginormous breasts, those have got to be the biggest ones to date :P).
Another thread about this?
Where was all the outrage with Age of Conan with its bare boobs right from level 1 with scantly clad women in its adverts for a game with rape, sex slaves and sex cults?
Worse yet, AoC was realistic, SB is freaking CARTOONISH so isnt even realistic.

That's not the developer's fault. They added a rating and parents should be monitoring what their kids are doing to decide what is and isn't appropriate for their maturity level.
-----------
Will boobs and more than half naked women attract younger kids? Duh, so what? There's nothing stopping those same kids from just looking at porn since there is no way to verify their age on the internet for mature content. You just agree you're over 18 and that's good enough.
People need to stop complaining about mature content in them (blood, nudity, violence, whatever) because kids might get their hands on them and be exposed to it. It's the parents' job to be responsible, if they're not they have no right to complain that their kid played this game or watched something questionable or anything. They need to learn to take some responsibility for their parenting (or lack of).
For the record I thought the game was boring. I'm all for looking at sexy and attractive women but when a game leaves practically nothing to the imagination it just becomes boring to me. Voice acting as you'd expect is very bad which compounds the problem with the horrible, horrible dialogue, not that anyone would download this game for the previous things mentioned. Some of the dialogue was amusing because of how bad it was though, couldn't help laughing or smiling, but all in all lets see how long this game lasts. I didn't find anything interesting to keep me playing it.
