I am clearly not a big fan of this update in particular either but as for your question, I would assume that it's simply what a lot of people want. Then the devs see those comments and decides to go along with it.
Myself I am a big fan of top futa don't really see the point in putting a dick on a girl and have her be the bottom you know? Might aswell just have a "normal" girl then. There is of course exceptions as with everything but in general this is how I see it.
Not trying to start an argument, but as a male on futa enjoyer ill just give our reasoning. I like penis and I like women. I think it is hot to see a woman with a big ol weiner.
There is tons of femboy, gay, and futa on male content out there where one dude just gets fucked and no one goes "whats the point in him having a penis if he isnt going to use it? Might as well just fuck a woman." The idea of a man getting dominated turns people on. Porn is about turning people on, not everything needs to have a specific function.
As I said, I like women and weiners. I think it is hot when a chick is riding a guy and her penis is bouncing around. I think it is hot to see a woman cum on herself while she is getting fucked. The purpose of the penis is to arouse the viewer. Doesnt matter how it does it. TBH I also like role reversal stuff. When the person you think is going to be a dom is a sub. Like a big orc lady, or a hung futa.
No hate to anyone, not trying to start anything like I said. Thats the reasoning that I have for liking male on futa, and why I think the "whats the point if they arent going to use it" argument that I see mentioned a lot is a little silly.
I am personally pretty neutral to futa on masuline male. However, It loses my interest when the futa is mean. If this game is going to go a more futa dom route then ill just stop playing. wont throw a fit about it or anything. it is what it is.
