from what i've seen, video games don't have fandoms like shows or movies or comics do, or at least not ones that create fanart/fic. barring exceptions like tf2, bioware games, assassins creed, etc.

that said i recall a couple of artists on y!gallery who were doing explicit slash art, though i don't remember their usernames.

sigh. i didn't say they don't have fandoms, they just seem to be more male-dominated and create different things and just operate differently.

generally speaking, video games don't have the same sort of fandoms that other things like books and tv shows and such have. a lot of comparatively popular video games don't have active, fanwork-producing (meaning fic, art, fanmixes, etc) fandoms as their comparable tv show/movie/book equivalent.

look at the difference in the number of fics on AO3.

i didn't include final fantasy because i haven't played the games and i'm not aware of the fandom enough to include it. though now i can see it's one of the top 5 in the AO3 categories.
