The game Guilty Gear Strive penalizes players for trying to peek under characters' skirts.

Hey there, don't even think about it. Some news for all the horny gamers out there - the latest updates for Guilty Gear Strive and Stellar Blade have put a stop to those pervy camera angles. You know, the kind that allow players to ogle and zoom in on the characters in the game.

This topic of sexualized video game characters has been a hotly debated issue since the infamous Lara Croft first appeared on the original PlayStation. But it seems to have resurfaced once again this year with the release of Stellar Blade, and its lead protagonist, who has sparked some controversy.

Now, whether you see this as immature, empowering, or harmless, most game developers have allowed players to continue with their pervy behavior. Although, there were some complaints about false advertising when Stellar Blade introduced outfit changes for its characters.

But it seems that some developers are finally taking a stand and trying to protect players from themselves. In a recent update for Guilty Gear Strive, the developers have patched the game's digital figure mode, where players can view and rotate character models. However, this update now makes it impossible to zoom in on anything inappropriate.

According to the patch notes, the camera's display will now be toggled off when viewing certain areas of the figures, preventing players from getting too intimate with the characters. In simpler terms, if you try to look up a character's skirt, the model will disappear entirely. And it's not just the female characters, even the male characters will disappear if you get too close with the camera.

It's unclear why this update was released, but some speculate that it may be connected to a change in the game's rating by the Japanese age rating board. The game's rating was recently changed from CERO B to CERO C, so this update may have been implemented to bring it back down.

Coincidentally, the latest NieR Automata DLC for Stellar Blade also has a feature to deal with perverts. If you try to look at EVE's underwear while she's dressed in the new 2B outfit, she'll kick the camera away - similar to how 2B swats the camera away in the original NieR Automata game.

But this isn't the first time players have been called out for their pervy behavior in a game. In the original Resident Evil 4, Ashley would call Leon a "pervert" if he tried to aim up her skirt. This was also cleverly included in last year's remake of the game.

In addition to the camera angle update, the latest Guilty Gear Strive update also adds a new 3v3 mode, where players can use assist characters, along with some bug fixes.
