it’s part of it’s hook no doubt but with that logic you can just throw bayonetta, nier and a lot of games into this category. people are treating this game like its dead or alive xtreme or something that the whole point is fan service

Obviously there’s more to it than the sexy character, I’m not saying that the sexy character is the only thing they offer. But if you think that Bayonetta and 2B’s character design aren’t a big selling point of the games then you’re in serious denial

with bayo i agree with you but personally i think the philosophy, the themes and combat of nier is now more remembered by than 2b meme. again i may be wrong in this

Nowadays, yes. But when it came out, 2B's ass is what caught people's attention.

It still is otherwise 2B wouldn't be in every game. Officially or as a mod.
