It's just one of those things where all the stars and planets and winds aligned to create the perfect storm for success. I don't think "sex sells" is even close to enough to explain why it became the hit that it was. I think the success is a combination of a few things like not just 2B's appearance but the general aesthetic (while it can look a bit drab, the game has its moments), the combat itself is smooth and exciting to most even if it doesn't satisfy hardcore DMC/Bayonetta/character action game fans, it had closer to a decade of cult hit hype building behind it after the first Nier, Platinum DOES have a sizable though not massive following, and it got a lot of great scores prior to release & mostly praising word of mouth hype after release. ![]() If anything, I'd say she's a pretty cool/attractive character design (even if nonsensical) DESPITE the silly sexualization aspect, not because of it. Her general appearance, while somewhat maid-fetish-y and the panty-showing skirt-flap is dumb, still has some coolness & uniqueness factor that I'd say also contributes to her popularity. 2B has more going for her than just sex appeal.
