Are you going to tell me that Western cartoons are comparable in both success and popularity to anime? Comics with manga?

>They even tend to remove the little girl's maternal figure in these games to show men how awesome it is to raise kids, even alone.
They do that because modern developers are uncomfortable writing male/female romance, especially when children are involved. The mother must be dead, the man must remain alone. But the rest of what you said is true; "Badass Dad raising Daughter" is meant to idealize being a stepdad because the world is full of unwanted children.

If you haven't figured out the recipe for woke game design after eating it for a decade than I don't know what to tell you.

Adi Shankar is the novelty cereal of directors. He takes a flavor you love, shows you the box, and then serves what is always a small, sugary mess that costs too much and does not offer any nourishment.

>Sometimes it feels like all the better games were rushed to a level while no delayed game ever gets "eventually good".
Delayed games speak of an inability to replicate the success that prior games had. Whether this is due to a lack of talent or lack of interest can be discussed, but is ultimately irrelevant because it translates into the same thing; people turning something that is meant to be passion into a project, and whimsy into work. Lord of the Rings (all of them) was shot in a single year because the people making the series knew what they were doing and had passion for what they were making. Toy Story 2 was storyboarded, generated and produced less than a year after the release of Toy Story 1 because the team knew what they were doing, and had a passion for what they were making.
Anything that takes longer than 3 years to produce is not worth your time. It's either going to be somebody's weird obsession (Mad God, Thief and Cobbler), a soulless cash grab that chases trends which either no longer exist or are heavily saturated, or (worse) it's a heartbreaker designed to string people along on the hope of release with bi-annual teases and meaningless "updates" (most WEGs, Star Citizen, Silksong.)

How about we cut the crap and recognize this is the same sort of malicious derangement that turned people into mask-gestapo during Lockdown. It's about holding power over others with the authority of either law or society behind you.
It's a lynch mob. That's all this is. It's a lynch mob. Do you think niggers were strung up in trees because men felt like killing niggers that day? No, it's because a woman fucked the nigger and felt bad about it, so she accused them of raping her. That's always how lynch mobs work.

You're right, the Japanese generally avoid making live-service games and instead make 20 iterations of the same game model. This is better because it places the game profits on game sales more than wealth extraction from in-game stores.

>Alyx Vance is the same thing as modern gaming women
First impressions are important. They decide the foundation your brain will build your judgement of the character. Assholes can redeem themselves, but they must be acknowledged as assholes. They can be cynical, but they need to be expressly treated as the "cynical" one whose standoffish ways are extrapolated. To put it simply, the first 30 seconds you spend with a new character determines the entirety of your experience with the character.
So what is our first impression of Alyx Vance?
She's smiling at you when you meet her. She's happy. Your first experience with her is amicable. Pleasant, even. She expresses rage and frustration, but never at you. She's strong and helpful, but does so a complement to your efforts. She's never presented as a bad woman, or a complicated woman. She's a resistance hero that grew up hearing stories about you and is enthusiastic to work with you. There's only a hint of romantic tension after you've spent 20+ hours with her, and in the "third" game.
So when you see Alyx in the game, you're thinking, "oh wow, it's Alyx! Yay!" Not, "Oh, it's my fucktoy" or "it's the bitch that yells at me" or even "it's the carpet." It's a friend. A companion. Snarky and independent, but cares about you and what you are doing for the resistance. You can get all of that in the first 30 seconds of meeting Alyx. The way she fights, the way she talks, and tries to break the ice, or cracks jokes. Alyx Vance is a good character. She's not a complicated character, but memorable characters rarely are.
