Video games

Video games can be such a great source of G/t interactions, although I find M/f scenes are fairly rare. I’m happy to be proven wrong so I thought, why not start a thread and collate some of them?
During my recent Covid quarantine, I finished playing Immortals: Fenyx Rising and, in line with usual depictions of the divine, the gods are actually pretty big in this (I’d say 50-60 feet? Given the stylistic proportions). So I was excited to find a couple of cute handhelds between the protagonist and Zeus in the game (and by some extension, interactions with the other gods who play a role in the story). Players can choose to play as male or female, and surprisingly a lot of videos portray the female option - how appropriate for this forum methinks!
There are some smaller interactions throughout the game that are captured I’m some other cutscenes, but I thought the end scenes were the most significant.
The game is clearly tailored to teens and young adults; cartoonish design, saturated colours, silly script, etc. But it’s fun, cute, and I’m not going to ignore a good handheld.
Warning, videos contain major game spoilers:
Zeus finds out the truth: https://youtu.be/W0LI_1ijKZY
Final boss fight/Ending: https://youtu.be/Ocis84_fBQU (you can skip the majority of this video to final cutscene at 44:50 following the boss battle. Handheld at 48:20)

Potential SPOILER ALERT for Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla
I’ve been playing AC: Valhalla, and recently came across a cut scene for the death of a key antagonist. What was unexpected was a brief inclusion of the main protagonist’s brother as a giant followed by a decent handheld. It arguably treads into VSW territory, except that the antagonist is already dead and there is minimal blood in the sequence (sorry for those who like that), but she does scream before a crunch. If you play as the female version of the protagonist, there is the added bonus of having another woman in the sequence but it’s much more limited. The video in this case shows the male version.
Size ratio is about 1:12 (I’d prefer him bigger, but still a nice watch).
Other notable themes/content are: woman at giant’s feet, giant imprisoned and bound, giant breaking out of his bonds and then standing to display stature, man turned god/monster, giant taking vengeance on captor. All of which are -chef’s kiss-
Start of cut scene at 4:32, size related content at 4:57:

@miss-lillipants This was extremely good stuff!

@Nyx isn’t it! Ubisoft is clearly size fandom friendly.

So the God of War franchise is no stranger to titan sized beings with the Greek Titans making plenty of appearances pre-PS4, and Norse Giants/Joten (who are not always literal giants) playing a key role in our protagonists’ story in the more recent Next Gen versions.
Sadly, there’s not much in terms of M/f content, with one brief scene I remember in GoW2 with Rhea and Kronos at 0:50 :
Another is the interactions between Pandora and Hephaestus in GoW3, the story of her creation here at 1:40 :
But one part I think of note is from the more recent GoW Ragnarok involves Atreus entering the home of the giantess, Gryla, to save some animals. I realise the scene below focusses primarily on Atreus, a teenage boy, but he is accompanied by Angrboda, who is also the granddaughter of Gryla. Also, there are some nice perspective/comparative shots of them against features of a giant’s home, kitchenware and Gryla herself. I guess this could be for the exploration fans!
This part of the story itself is quite sad (but what part of the game isn’t?) with themes of abandonment, loss and the toll grief can take on family.
Scale is maybe 1:6 ?
