Dead or Alive publisher requests between 2,000 and 3,000 takedowns on works of inappropriate fan art annually because it thinks of the game's characters 'like daughters'(www.pcgamer.com)

100% this is just cover for them wanting to have a monopoly on the sexy content of their characters. Cause the main appeal of these games seems to be how sexy the characters are so if you could go to some other website and look at them there instead then you wouldn’t need to buy the game.

Agreed, I do find it interesting they’re being protective of the IP at all given that it seems they’ve kinda given up on it and delegated it to just being about idol volleyball for that sweet mtx money. Maybe they do intend on making another game for the franchise. Honestly they should just go all in on the sexiness instead of their half-assed attempt at making is take them seriously.
