Do you think that games should adhere as much to reality as they can, or should they strive to be as fantastical as possible?

I only want realism because fantasy implies that the female characters can be half naked with their boobs falling out.
Realism at least respects women.

The question is loaded. One side of the argument is strictly subjective, and depends on a person's individual wants and desires, and the other side of that you have to produce a game that both functions, and creates a believable illusion. Games aren't "realistic" because they have advanced graphics, or a strong enemy AI, or even well done animations, it's actually a culmination of the 3, regardless of visuals, that creates the illusion of "realistic".
The third position is one of extravagant fiction versus down to earth non-fiction, in which case we refer to the first point.

I don't think the question is loaded, but rather one that is pointless with no additional context. The obvious answer is twisting the question and saying simply no. Games should not strive for either as much to reality as they or be as fantastical as possible. These aren't good goals to ascribe with no specifics in mind.

I think game developers should make the games they want to make, no restrictions. Games should be made because you have an idea you want to see come true, not to try and appeal to a particular audience's preferences first then fit your idea into that mold.

You have to take the good with the bad. Not every idea is great, in fact most probably aren't. But, every idea deserves the chance to be expressed and then let people decide for themselves whether they want to engage with it or not.
