I've seen quite a few "refusing" (more: ignoring) calls for fetish X. But otherwise I agree. And I also don't get the callers. Of course when playing a game we all hope for certain content with character X (doesn't have to be a controversial fetish or similar) and won't get it because there is only so much that can realistically fit into a single game, and there's plenty of fish out in the sea where I can satisfy my urges. More importantly to me however, I have certain kinks myself and I see devs doing them "wrongly" all the time because they obviously aren't into them as I am, so they wouldn't know what precisely it is that people love about this kink (let's ignore for now that even those enjoying the same "tag" wouldn't necessarily agree what precisely it is they like). It's like asking your favorite band to make some jazzier music, or some more heavy, or give it a country touch with a didgeridoo and a bagpipe: if they themselves don't "feel" it, the result may technically be heavy metal country jazz (with didgeridoo and bagpipe) but won't sound at all like what I wanted because it just isn't their music.Glad to see that.
I don't know how many times I have had a game that I loved ruined by the addition of all kinds of niche content until that content became what the whole game was about. No shade on people who are into whatever, there's a wide selection of games catering to every of taste out there. Unfortunately there are also people going around demanding dev's to feature their favorite content in just about every game, and the dev's usually cave to those demands. I think Zanith and one other dev are the only I've seen refuse.
