Riot have apparently decided to reveal and release champions on a biweekly schedule again because, I don't know, they're trying to rob me of all my free time.
Anyway, let's have a chat about one of the longest-teased champions (technically) in all of League of Legends, and see how she holds up.

I think Riot may have scaled back on the “monster” element because it’s usually difficult for black female characters to exist as desirable, well-written, and present in video games. There’s also the real world stigmatization of us as more masculine and even less human (it’s even worse when you’re dark skinned). So while I’m not one to give Riot too much credit, I‘m thankful they scaled back on the monster element for her design.
Honestly, at that point they should just make good character designs for black women that are attractive if that's their worry. They are clearly able to make strong, attractive, and complex black characters because we got Ekko, Medarda, her mother, and Sevika.
I'm asian and a lot of the media I see from the country I live in with a large Asian population portrays asian women as hyper sexualized, half English speaking, one night stands or the stereotypical dragon Lady. Asian men are viewed as unattractive with personalities revolving around math and science or fighting.
I would much rather have something from love death and robots where an asian woman in prostitution becomes a "monster" rather than representation for clicks. That or an asian man becomes the unattractive monster that the believes the modern world portrays him as.
As such, I'd argue that rather than settling for a character who was made to make a ton of money, set the expectation higher because riot makes plenty of money and I think it's completely fair to ask them to be better as a consumer. I don't mean shit on them, just set higher expectations.
@@blu5018 I agree trope subversion is also powerful, but senna isn’t really a flawed design. Yes she could look more ghostly, but I’m perfectly fine with the story her design currently tells and most of the other skin line iterations it spawns. That said, I totally get your side of it: when one lives in a culture where your race is fetishized (depending on the way the sexualize you) it can be refreshing to see the woman in question break free of it. Senna and Yan (from that LDR episode) both do this, but in different ways that respond to the stereotypes forced on each of them.
@@dgtor_official I have no problems with Senna honestly, more just the general statement of having lower expectations because an extremely profitable and successful company can't meet good ones, if that makes sense.
I don't like patting riot on the back for meeting the floors requirement of non-racist designs and being, not culturally sensitive, but aware that it exists. I'd rather just say, "make better characters" and congratulate them on good representations of minorities. Especially with their recent lawsuit I think more fans need to push companies to just be better and reward with engagement when they do. It feels like a participation trophy for keeping up with the times when the best you can do is an attractive black woman who isn't an embodiment of stereotypes but a kinda meh character overall. Arcane proved they can do better.
@@blu5018 Agreed. They could do better. I’d honestly love to see more diverse characters with good story and design. It’s sad that the bar is literally in the pits of hell.
@@dgtor_official I'm excited to see what they'll do with Arcane. It's such a good representation of poverty and politics. It's not nearly as graphic or as horrible but I was so impressed and my boyfriend who grew up around the worst parts of detroit also loved the show.
Me: "Man, Lucian seems crazy devoted, there's practically nothing left to his character."
Senna: 🍑
"👀 Nvm, I completely understand, carry on."
Never underestimate the power of ass
I actually can't believe how he puts this all together. He probably has notes about what to say and in which order but everything other...I think this man does it in second ...and u never heard him stopping and saying like "Umm...Hmmm....Uhh..That...." and dude , do you ever get tired of doing this? You legit sit for half an hour speaking about video game champion? I guess you really love your work 🤣❤
@@seelfire4725 it's definitely not cut out, when it happens it's really obvious
@@leonardovalente9772 nope, there are many ways to hide cuts
It's called editing son.
@21:37 "Honestly Riot come now".
...I mean they're clearly trying.
Polish people are bussin rn
Idk. Senna was "fridged". "Fridging" comes from green lantern. Senna was captured and 'fridged' inside of a Lantern, which is green.... Riot why are you stealing everything? xD
FUCK I was just about to make this comment too! I thought this was great. Literally a green lantern xD
But now she's un-fridged, and while that doesn't undo the questionable writing decision embedded in Lucien's backstory, it's certainly a step in the right direction.
Take what you like and put it in what you love
Well, they do say the greatest artists steal xD
This game ( and any hero/champion/ character based game )was built off of a character archetypes and putting littlw twists on those archetypes that make the characters unique to whatever universe they are from (in this case the LoL universe). I dont see how this is any different from any other champ in league. In that case every character in this game is "stolen" from any other random piece of fiction.
Making her more ghostly or monstery is probably a common criticism with riot's women design. But so far i feel senna design is fine, i really like the criticism you made here.
Like shes better than kaisa but thats jit saying much
@@mudawott Kaisa is just bad. Especially when we have Kassadin. Is being in the void dangerous now or not? Make up your fridgin mind Riot!!!
@@BluePhoenix_ Yeah. Senna at least you can argue shes a spirit. She is non-corporeal
My headcannon on why Senna doesn't have many scars is because it's the body she just made from the mist. Pre-revival Senna in my mind 100% is scarred.
Makes sense
Wait, this isn't cannon?
@@BatdadIsBestDad nah but it's kind of implied. She made her form based on all of the sentinels she freed which is literally why her weapon is the most sentinel thing, and it's called the relic of the sentinels. So it does make sense she just made her body in tact and based her armaments on sentinels throughout history.
0:51 "Senna may be the champion with the longest teaser out of any champion in the game"
and then Viego came in
I am glad they made her a hot babe. Scaring her up is not necessary. She is not common at all being a rare dark skinned character in video games. I don't usually encounter this hot babe criticism until a beautiful black female character is designed and white characters are used in supporting argument, but people don't do a dedication video to criticizing white hot babe characters--just toning down the skimpy booby armor. The designers took their time to develop this beautiful black female character and I am enjoying that effort.
I've dedicated quite a few videos to criticizing Riot's constant default to Hot Fantasy Babe characters for all their women, actually, but I can understand the argument that the context changes with race.
The animators are innocent from the fact that Lucian cannot lie, and we can't deny that.
If there is no reference to the “honey, Where’s my super suit?!” Meme I’ll be very disappointed
Is it because they're...
@@tebogotwala5185 Oof. Got em
I cannot stop laughing because Skyen keeps talking about her “buttocks”
the character designs this time TB come with an asterisk. You're looking at senna from the lens of just character design which is fair, however you must also look at the context in which senna is launching and to quote a movie I've never seen, "we live in a society".
In League of Legends there are many MANY skinny hot fantasy babes majority of whom are fair-skinned with long flowing locks. While Senna's design may not be unique when looking at the roster of female characters in League, it does become unique when you refine what it is you are looking at. Senna, if I'm not mistaken, comes out as 1 of 2 black women (the other being Illaoi, and no, Karma is Indian or something). Illaoi the only other black woman in the game walks around in stark opposition to conventional beauty norms. She's big, she's tall, she does hit from afar or strike from the shadows, no she wants a 'kick in the head' and an epic brawl. Illaoi was a massive departure from league of legends standard hot babe. However, Illaoi has problems, none of which her fault, see she was the only black woman introduced to a roster of 44 (at the time) women, and of all the *human women, she was the big departure, not only in skin but in physicality as well. Again none of this is bad HOWEVER no matter how well-meaning a design decision may be, it will ALWAYS have to exist in our world as well, and our world has a very marred history with representation and depictions of black people and stereotypes that are associated with them. Illaoi, unfortunately, fell into so many of the ones for black women she was almost a joke, and I understand if you don't personally know them or notice them you're (I'm assuming here) a white male, hell I didn't see them and I'm black, but they do exist and the people who do see them are those on the intersectionality of the representation problems and this time it was black women. Whose tropes include, Being seen as intimidating, overly masculine, not feminine, failing to conform to societal beauty standards (which are overwhelmingly white, lets be real there's a reason why every time a yordle or celestial gets a more human form its a Caucasian woman), black women are said to be over sexual, and sexually dominant, some racist ideas even say that one must 'break/dominate' a black woman and get them to submit. None of these things are things that I would've clocked on to had it not been for my black sister who actively researches black womanhood and (surprise) lives as a black woman and has to face these stereotypes on the daily. Illaoi, basically fell into each and every single one of these tropes without fail, she even fell for the "im a strong independent black woman" trope as well which reinforces that sensitivity is something foreign to black women and all that they are is sass attitude and a readiness to throw down.
pulling this back onto Senna, while as a female league of legends character design she may fall into the pitfalls of all the others but, because of the context in which she exists he design succeeds where the others may fail. Senna actively breaks the same common tropes that Illaoi fell into, as a design Senna is (surprisingly (unsurprisingly)) one of the few visually dark-skinned women in a video game with unapologetically black features who is also attractive while not exuding a purely sexual energy like so many other dark skin black women in videogames, in fact the only other black woman in a video game who comes to mind who exists in a similar state as Senna would be Vivienne from dragon age, whom from what I've heard is an amazing character. Senna, to that regard, stands in as something of a unique character design in the grand scheme of black video game characters in that rather than being another sympathetic racially ambiguous black woman whose conventionally attractive or a hulking overblown stereotype. She stands as an attractive visibly black woman, in a relationship where shes been allowed to have her sensitivities and be loved back. She's a woman with a past and rather than having that past steel her heart to everything and anything, rather than having that past make her "the angry black woman", that past has instead made her more empathetic and wanting to help others.
this is getting long now but tl;dr senna is good cause league (and video games) need more than monsters and hulks as black female representation
Just one thing....I thought Iaolli was Pacific -islander / polynesian
I know this comment is like really old, but I love the way you put it into words. Couldn't agree more.
@@Eris_Norregard oh thank you, jeez i didnt notice that was 2 years ago, dont even play league anymore but still love and work in character design
I definitely would have liked to see Senna look more undead or at least have some scars of some sort, but honestly her design doesn't piss me off as much as Ka'isa's did. Senna's design still has some charm in it despite its flaws, meanwhile Ka'isa just looks like a Vanye wannabe in a symbiote suit
can we talk about how good is Senna song?
It's so freaking good
We need a Senna and Lucian sitcom
Your bringing up of Batman as an example of fridged characters to motivate the hero made me realize something. One of the Batman stories’s most iconic features is the Bat Family. Batman frequently adopts orphaned children and trains them to fight crime like he does, because becoming a vigilante was his way of coping with the loss of his parents and he doesn’t want these orphans to be on their own like he was (if you ignore Alfred). If you remove the killing of the Wayne’s from Batman’s backstory, would he even form the Bat Family? Would he become Batman at all? Not all superheroes are orphans, but it’s a common trope for a reason.
12:12: That said, there are definitely types of trauma you _can_ recognize. Physical violence often leaves visible scars, for instance. I'm not sure what kind of metaphysical scars would be left by the extreme metaphysical violence Senna went through, but I imagine they'd be hard to miss.
Senna wasn't traumatized by the metaphysical equivalent of sexual assault or emotional abuse or something similar; she was traumatized by the metaphysical equivalent of attempted murder, kidnapping, and unlawful imprisonment. (Also the physical equivalent of one of them.) Some of that should leave _some_ kind of visible scar.
7:05: ...So, do those souls live on inside Senna (and her cannon), or did she basically eat those souls to reincarnate into the world? Those two might only differ on a metaphysical level, but 'd argue it's an important difference nonetheless.
13:00: I've seen better visual representations of "she's just putting up a front" than "literally just design her as if nothing's wrong". So even if that's the intent, they took the lazy route.
0:30: The sketch comedy wasn't _that_ bad. SNL would reject your skit, but that has more to do with content than anything. I could see Monty Python workshopping something like that.
3:55: What would the fantasy, non-copyright-infringing equivalent of proton packs be?
7:35: The juxtaposition makes me unclear whether you're making fun of the lack of tension in Lucien and Senna's relationship or the expected lack of tension. Maybe I should read about these characters outside the videos on this channel...
We are all still upset about Kai'sa, I see.
FOREVER!!!
One year later and he still is
Honestly, I'm just glad they added more black characters. And I like her hair. That's about as far as my reasoning goes haha
What is interesting to me is that Senna was cursed from a young age to be a target of the mist : something quite similar to Yorick's ability to mark a target (his E) so that his ghouls and the mist maiden focus them. I like to think that she had that 'Unholy mark' on her. This and also we do not know whether her order is the same as Yorick! Yorick do not have a lightslinger weapon so i would doubt they are.
What an interesting theory. Obviously Sentinels Of Light has happened by now though.
I think that if they wanted to make senna a hot babe they could at least make her transform in a horror time to time (and show that in the splashart)
@@seelfire4725 no, like he said: she still apealling and she is in control of her form. I literally mean that she tranform in a horror(like kalista, hecarim or thresh) for some seconds and then back to her normal form, like she is struggling to maintain her form.
@@michaelc.r.6416 I THOUGHT THE SAME !!! when i was thinking on how to represent it, i thought this would make it a real good design choice!
Ah, crap, missed the premiere! I've been waiting for this for so long!
Also, what do you mean, "horrible" stand-up comedy? It genuinely made me laugh out loud.
Also ALSO, that's probably the best description of Kai'Sa I've ever heard. That's what's really bugging me about Senna, too. She could've looked a little more like her ghostly, smoke-like form we've seen in her trailer, at the very least in her Wraith form.
Jesus christ I didn't realize her story would be so complicated
"Stupid sexy senna"
"paused explanation to show Senna's butt"
DAYUM!
being the first black woman in league im quite happy with what we got and not a deformed\damaged version
karma?
@@guilhermegonzalez5501 pretty sure she's supposed to be indian
@@oracola8282 what? there is no such thing as india in lol, they live in runeterra not earth
@@guilhermegonzalez5501 It has to do with ethnicity, when people say black they usually mean American lol, Illaoi is aztec, karma is indian, taliyah is egyptian, and senna is amercan
@@teratoph I'm fairly certain that illaoi is an islander.
I’ll have you know that it was precisely your video on Kaisa that made me buy her and have her eventually become my most played marksman character. There’s something appealing (to me) in the incongruence of her appearance and her background. As in, I fully agree with your comments, but for some reason I don’t fully understand, instead of feeling them as negatives, they are why I like them more.
while I will admit that the symbiote survievor requires much susspension of disbelief for make it convincing, I do imagine that if Venom or some other symbiote were attached to someone it would preffer to have the host body as peak health, maybe even digesting things that the host typically can not to help keep them both fed.
Yeah but now you're making up headcanon excuses for the character design in order to make it work, which to me is always a sign of a design communicating itself badly.
@T B Skyen, for someone who constantly expresses his desire for character design to be more represenative of the character, you seem to complain alot about how you do not get told details that one can infer from firstimpression looks.
Kai'sa for example, became an apex predator in the void with a symboitic (not parasitic) entity. if she were to look half starved, i can only immagine it would be partially the will of the symbiote if it had a dominant ego to weaken its host. but you are most upset over the fact that the character's health does not reflect the hardship of their journey, but the degree of the success they earned.
part of character deisgn is how much do the creators need to explicitly tell the audience, and how much we can judge from detialls they decided were not important enough to spell out to avoid confusion.
@@spadeofpain24 Pivoting immediately to a personal accusation of hypocrisy the moment you get pushback is not a great way to discuss anything with anyone, and I'd like you not to do that please.
And the "Kai'sa became an apex predator" idea would require you to explain why an "apex predator" looks like a Playboy centerfold model and not, say, a bodybuilder, or a martial artist, a gymnast, a fencer, or literally any olympic level gymnast. I like Howard Schatz' photoseries "Athlete" as a visual demonstration of how narrow female character design in gaming is when it comes to visually representing power and strength: twitter.com/tbskyen/status/1138602582228852736
Kai'sa's character design is not created to look powerful, or dangerous, or alien or tough, or anything else that might be reasonably associated with "extra dimensional symbiote apex predator."
She's designed to look SEXY, because video game character design tends to conflate "empowerment" with "being hot." It does this across the board, for male and female characters, but it does it far, FAR more often and far more dogmatically for female characters, and my criticism is that it chokes out more interesting options.
I respect you for putting in that Avril Lavigne reference
21:38 Oh I'm sure someone at Riot did when they were working on it B)
I never noticed the gun plating move in game. That's so cool!
I love Shadow Isles VFX, I'm loving this Champion. Small shame they didn't go all-out with ghost monster girl on her E.
who made the art at 14:00 ? i want to set that as my wallpaper
By the body movement u gotta remember in game she have a cape which she don have there 😉
The metaphysics of Skyen keep expanding and I am all over that.
Maybe she could have a patch on her cheek where you can see her skull, or has a skeleton hand
Have you been reading Boyfriend of the Dead, N?
13:43-14:06 reminds me of Emily's design from the Corpse Bride
Hey TB are you interested in Mortal Kombat at all or no? They've just been doing a lot of interesting character design things and story retcons that I thought you'd be up for talking about but it's fine if MK is not your tea
Nobody check the most replayed moment
Didnt you say it yourself? She created a new body for hersolf... Why would that be damaged? I get that it could maybe be a bit flawed or inconsistent but i really dont think that its that big of an issue.
But overall a very good and enjoyable video. Ilike your unique qy of narrating her story and this video conent is also something i have not really seen on youtube. There are probably some who do this as well on youtube, but i have not come into cantact with them.
I would *still* really love it, if they at some point interact with Yorick in some way.
Hahahahahahaha had their chance with the event and just said na :D
That laugh at 17:32 is incredibly contagious, I dunno why but it just is lol
It's always a good thing when things are *thrumming*.
I am SO GLAD I'm not the only one who sees ScarJo in Kai'sa; thank you.
A lil sad you didn’t mention how she’s the first black female in the game. We haven’t had a female in league that’s black not colored. I thought that was cool. Now there’s 4 black people in the game
You can't make the singer of True Damage looks like an undead ghoul...
Also, don't you think her gun looks like a shark head x) ?
Ghost Fishbones
Haah, I know I've watched a lot of your videos when I immediately knew you were gonna talk about the weight of the cannon loong before you even mentioned it
I don't get why you want her to have visuals scars, and advance staged of death. She made a body with the power of the mist, it's not truly the same Senna, and for a broken character the least she could do is give to herself a human appearance rather than a monster, she does not need to be sexy as she does not need to be monster/dead like, she is more of a Ghost than a goul (for me)
Hey T B Skyen, have you ever considered reviewing Hazbin Hotel or Helluvaboss ? There animated pilots of vivziepop and they look AMAZING! Really want to know your opinions about it. 💖❤️💕
Not interested, no.
I don't know why, but i'm like 99% sure one of the rioters actually said(either in her story/bio or something else) that When Senna Came back from the lantern, since she was still sentient and able to understand her past, she was able to control her physical appearance, I mean, I still agree that she'd be a little bit cooler if she actually looked like she'd been in a lantern for 6 years but oh well
17:27 No one:
Senna: *I N H A L E.*
I gotta have something to look at when shes walking back to lane
I got a Danny Phantom vibe from Senna's design
It turns into Full Metal Alchemist : Brotherhood where the evil ruined king tries to gather enough life for sacrifice to create an artificial human (i.e. revive his wife), while two young children of his nemesis (aka fridged dad?) go on their quest to put an end to it
Senna should have had a weight support exoskeleton. Not only would it add some design variety to make her body design more than just a generic sexy babe, it would lend itself to that as well as every other aspect of her character.
The shape of it could easily be designed to accentuate her legs, hips, and waist. The exo-SKELETON, emphasis, SKELETON, could fit into the undead spectre elements by simply coloring it white and i really hope this part explains itself. And lastly, it would help sell the weight of the weapon. This absolute behemoth of a cannon being supported by this mechanical structure would really sell it as something so outrageously heavy that a mortal person can't even begin to hope to wield it.
It's an element I think could go far, anyway.
U get +1sub for that sk8terboi reference dude
Is thst destiny 2's songs?
Skyen; "wow riot's animators must've had a good day making senna!"
nobody;
nobody at fucking all;
DE Steve upon realizing there was a polygon issue on Mesa Prime; *"I must fix this problem immediately. TO THE DEV ROOM!"*
and before someone asks, the issue was that Mesa Prime's backside had a weird mesh issue on the left portion where it would... _squints at script_ cave inwards during walk animations.
The fuck?
So the back end of Mesa Prime's ass would suddenly become the underside of their thigh. *...how the fuck did they manage that?*
I have already played over 100 Games with Senna and i never had a problem with her idle animation but now that i know how her body is moving and streching i bothers me.
The champion is unplayable now and i have to go back to Kindred.
You should cover some of the character designs from Dead by Daylight!
I think you'd enjoy the story telling that comes from them, its a flawed game but their art department is on point!
Good video btw
Senna is the only support who is actually an adc that heals, stealths and shields her allies from all across the map all across morgana rooting an entire team and dealing a lot of damage, also all across the map.
Edit: she also scales infinitely
“Food’s great tho”
Lost my shit
You get a like from me for the sk ging around 5:00
This character makes my guns velocity peak ngl
A parody version of a Dracula once said, "bitches love cannons"
Huh u didn't go over her dichotomy between healer and cannoneer like u did for Ana in overwatch
Hahahahahhaa that dislike button story was great
And the animation break-down was super helpful! The whole start was just fun to listen to :)
The gun T B... Look at the gun... pay close attention... to the gun XD
I do like how they didn't pull a yasua and yose and just be like well that was that okay anyways
Whats the deal with ekko?
LiveSkyen seems a little distracted by something...
What do you think about Liliana Vess from MTG?
I don't play Magic, so no opinion
@@TBSkyen oh i thought it was a deadlike case like senna
On the topic of Senna I have a hypothesis regarding her curse. I think she’s being inhabited by what’s left of the Ruined King’s wife. She was originally made “immortal” before the king attempted to undo it. “Its spark shone brighter within her than in anyone else-she’d been infected with it when she first encountered the wreckage that brought the Harrowing. There, she’d been touched by a powerful, lingering soul, given its unnatural life…”
This video came out 2y ago so I won't start an argument but I disagree. I think she looks fine. Unlike Yone he clearly has references to Lucian and making her undead or ghostly would make that harder to differentiate
i need an animation analysis for the frozen 2 movie pliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis
So, would the dog in John Wick be considered fridged?
Well, it's not a person, so... no.
Nailed the intro, buddy. At least I thought it was funny! :P
Hey honey does Lucian purify air or water ?
cant wait for this
15:20 Youre right Skyen, cause bitches love canons.
I dont know exactly why and its certainly not a defense. But for me, Senna is a character id rather be then fuck. Wich is why the wasted potential doesnt annoy me thaaaat much
I feel like the for the “first” black woman in League they HAD to make her pretty. People don’t really count illioi, so are they going to take the chance and make SENNA of all hyped up people rugged and tired looking? Honestly imo they made a smart move there lol. It wasn’t as bad as Overwatch where a new Latina or white character would be Released and all of Twitter and tumblr would up and arms the second they are teased, but they probably didn’t want to fuck up Senna of all champions.
What about talyah? Sure she's not super dark. But still
I'm not sure the Tumblr caricature brigade would be up in arms about Senna being insufficiently hot. Sounds more like something self-described "men's rights activists" would whine about, regardless of race.
@@xxxLeromexxx Taliyah is middle eastern/ north African
I really the idea of her being in the game in the first place, and because of that very reason they have to create entire new nonsense to make reasonings to why she is in the game and why she is the classic video game girl character.
“Death does not leave scars
-Senna
15:08 Bitches love cannons.
Is no one going to ask about syken's dislike button? I don't even want to question how you managed to burn it. I'm just hoping that you are okay since it's scared off your resident Spirit medium.
Kassadin's daughter is probably longer (?)
Replace the words "probably longer" with the name "Kaisa" and remove the question mark and you got yourselfe a real sentence.
I swear the reason I keep coming back is for those dislike button stories
I don't think Rito thought that Senna was supposed to be "brought to life." If you watch Lucian's teaser video, Senna looked nothing like what Senna looks like NOW. Senna looks like a completely normal waifu, a damsel in distress. But Rito messed up just to "bring her to life."
Could you make what the deal video on other games like battleborn, Soulcalibur, Guilty Gear, Dead or Alive, and there characters & lore to
20:59
Haha *Thats quite a lot of booty* damn right
honestly senna has 0 muscle on her which makes no sense because she carries a huge stone slab effortlessly
funny that as a gay dude i dont even view the women as sexual just a badass cool design
OH! I forgot make what the deal vdeo on Apex Legends Legends again please please with strawberry on top OH! I mean when you are done with Alllllll of the other video you have to do HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Put her back please
This character is the reason I'm ignoring the disgustingly toxic player base and still playing the game.
I don't see her *that much* as a generic attractive female, at least not as much as usual for Riot (I'm looking at you Kai'Sa)
I understand where you are coming from with the character design issue and it makes sense but on the other hand it never even crossed my mind till you brought it up and i'm sure alot of other players are the same. Personally for my either way is fine but remember sex sells.
"Sex sells"
This is not true. Sex only sells things that are nominally related to sex - i.e. you can sell a sportscar with sex, or perfume or clothes or body spray. Sex does not sell a forklift, or a tractor, or washing machines or toilet paper.
Does sex sell game characters, then? Sometimes, but it depends strongly on context. "Sex sells" as a truism is very unhelpful.
