Why do they look like they look?
So I wonder.

Why do the Androids look like they do? Is it just "because they look sexy and we want it" or is there any reason that fits into the world (e.g. culture or sth)

In the game, they said that androids were made based on their creators, the humans.

Japanese devs aren't hit around the head by SJW all day, they don't get forced to make ugly females to make bloated, old feminsts happy

If you will be able to construct Android - would you like to look like 2B or ugly shopkeeper? :)

BTW: Look at Kaine from Nier: Gestalt and read her story :)

If humans had the technology to build human looking androids to the extent and quantity shown here there are two things you can be sure of.

Firstly, they'd be as realistic yet attractive as possible. They'd have to pass the uncanny valley and without the need for subterfuge within our own species they'd be attractive.

Secondly, Humans have an inherent need to express creativity, design and style. With bodies as strong as they have there is no need for protective clothing but ingrained levels of modesty would mean they'd have to be clothed. If the only function of the clothing is to cover areas you don't want explicitly seen then the design will become flashy. You can be sure they'd be treated like fashion dolls, probably with more experimental ideas than on actual humans as the clothes don't need to be comfortable and warm.

Just look at the outfits we put imaginary creatures such as characters in media, gods, mythical figures or dolls in. look at modern technology's form now that the tech is advanced enough that function doesn't dictate it.

During the decline of humanity in Japan the Yen lost much of it's buying power. Android Panties became the favorite currency of the otaku working class.Therefore Androids were made to be able to pay for themselves.

The developer already addressed this. He happens to like hot women. I think it's a satisfactory answer.

If she would be ugly there would be no points in installing the auto-destruction mode :)

Yo.
I got no problem with it, its a style to use and thats perfectly fine. Just wondered if there was more of a touch to it.
I am for one happy as they look :D

Thanks for the input!

Because if you have the technology and capability to build such androids, you would make them as attractive as possible. 2B is the ultimate android real doll. Shame we were probably born 100 years too early.
