Eh, I think you're the one cherrypicking. That exceptions exist doesn't counter the argument that females tend to be highly sexualized in many video games. No one is ever painting ALL of gaming when they criticize trends and popular tropes. I believe this video also looked at poses as well. Even then, some of your examples are problematic. Peach might not be very sexualized, but she's a notorious damsel. Isn't Samus stripped if you beat the game in certain conditions? Tifa is notorious for being a pair of boobs with limbs attached. Yuna's cover pose is covered in the video. And I would be more than 50% of females in the Arkham series have huge cleavage, just like Harley does in this picture.
