Yes it does? Did you actually watch it?

the main point is lootboxes and customization or something but i was hoping it'd be more about complaining about fanservicey clothing like what's in the thumbnail (i see nothing about gambling or microtransactions in the pic)

Did you just call shirtless mario "fanservicey"? Do you get turned on by mario

Sounds like you just assumed the video was something else and that instantly makes it clickbait. The video isn't titled "fanservicey clothing in video games".

it's probably there as a joke, it especially looks like one with the esrb rating thing on it but i see it's there on all of the guy's videos

maybe but i still dont think this thumbnail represents the point very well
the title could've also been for a video that talks about the design of videogame clothes or something
Nakey Jakey seems like the Hot Dad of video games.
I love him.
Finally, the video where NakeyJakey lives up to his name. I disagree with him that Bloodborne and other games where your clothes don't have stats (or meaningful stats) are better. I think fashion works better when it's done with a disregard for stats. "Yeah, this all steel outfit with a lightning rod and a mask which perpetually coats my body in water does make me more susceptible to lightning damage, but I look so good in it!"

Though isn't usually so that someone dresses like a total fucking ponce due to optimal stats.

Sure, but that just means they're a scrub and they have no style.
I'm really fond of Xenoblade X's "Fashion Gear" system. For anyone unfamiliar, the various kinds of gear you wear provide different bonuses and stats, but if you don't like what your armor looks like, or you want a character to look a certain way, or maybe if you can't find a left arm piece that [I]fucking matches the rest of your set[/I] you have the option of using spare/old armor parts to override your armor visually. It's a great idea and I can't believe there aren't more games that use a similar system.

"Social armor" is a pretty common mechanic in MMOs.
I don't see it much outside of MMOs, though.

It's used in pretty much every big MMO on the market.

IT'SA MEE ERECTION-O
There's nothing more annoying than, oh black shoes 0.03 black gloves 0.40 black shirt 2.00 then you have something that's really wanted like a black mask which goes for literally unobtanium.
