    That shit just doesn’t belong in video games- period. There’s no good purpose to it. It never adds to the game at all… it’s fucking pointless.

      In your opinion, do not speak for everyone else, plenty do enjoy a good sex scene. I bet you don’t say shit about the violence, blood and gore in video games.

      The only disgusting part here is the lack of consent and communication to the performers as per the article.

      Go clutch your pearls elsewhere

        There’s no purpose to it at all. Fucking a pixelated character in a video game ads nothing to the story. And since you’re here to cast aspersions-

        You can go simp elsewhere.

        I didn’t attack anyone. I simply stated my opinion. Grow up.

          Your opinion of “This offends me, therefore noone should be able to enjoy it” has been noted and disregarded, Karen.

            I never said it offends me, did I? I just said it’s fucking stupid and adds nothing to the games.

            Maybe stop reading what you want things to say so you can be the hero and maybe pay attention?

            I simply stated an opinion. You got butthurt and wept all over the discussion. Your problem. Not mine.

            Cope.

      Hard disagree. But that’s okay, we’re allowed to like different kinds of games. Yours isn’t any more objective than mine though. If you don’t like that kind of thing, just don’t play those kinds of games. It’s not a threat to you if others enjoy them.

      Insane take. Are stories not allowed to explore SA now? That’s silencing of women’s (and many men’s) experience in a way that it could actually be heard and understood.

      I don’t think you understand that it’s not for porn sake, these aren’t all hot coffee scenes and such. It sounds like actors had to rape and harm people for dramatic effect, like you’d see on TV (e.g. Game of Thrones comes to mind). While it’s not really my cup of tea either, I think it can certainly amp up the tension and suspense. Far from pointless.

      The problem in this case is a matter of disclosure; Video Game companies are not used to walking the same thin line with actors as TV and Movie producers (who still haven’t fully grasped it either but have gotten better, e.g. having consent coaches on staff and such).

        Show me where I said that? I specifically meant sex in general. They’re games. Not simp simulators. But even if I had- if you need sexual assault to be in video games…… VIDEO GAMES-

        “I want to see sexual assault and rape!” wtf are YOU on.

        How do you like being misquoted?

          I mean, you could just not play the games that feature it instead of implying that it shouldn’t ever be in any game ever.
