No, and too bad. Kind of funny you bible thumpers are singling this game out over some article you "read". These aren't "real characters". The story is fictious, there are comics, worse games then this out there, but you lot turn a blind eye to those....why?
Why don't you go complain about all the little kiddy games people are making?
I get that it is “just a game” to some people, but we cannot ignore how things like this shape real attitudes. Rape is way more common than murder, and honestly, it is easier to commit. That is what makes this kind of content so dangerous. It turns something that destroys real lives into entertainment.
When you normalise sexual violence in games, you contribute to a culture that already does not take it seriously. Survivors are disbelieved, perpetrators walk free, and the justice system fails people all the time. Games like this do not just reflect the problem, they reinforce it.
We would never be okay with a game that glorifies child abuse or racism. So why is this treated like it is any less serious?
Look games like this do nothing . do you know what people sayed abot gta ? They sayed the same thing . That those who play it will become criminals and do those things IRL. Has that happened ? No. It is set to adults only. There are disclaimers everywhere. And what are you even talking about when you say "you contribute to a culture that already does not take it seriously." Do you even listen to news these days ? People are losing their lives just for being suspected of that. How many are placed in jail , lose theyr livelihoods just for false accusations of that. You don't even have to have proof of that . And the ones that prove theyr innocence dont even get an apology. It's besose of people like you who go out and fight without any proof . If you dont like the concept or the game just move on . You are not forced to play it or even look at it if you don't like it. Things like this were happening in times when pc's didint exist . They are not changing anything people do what they do and no amount of games will change that and the ones who do not do that will not do that. Go fight battles that matter and stop running people's entertainment just because you don't like it. And this is nothing more than a game .
If your takeaway from "you contribute to a culture that already does not take it seriously." is to talk about how people are accused of rape then you are clearly either purposefully steering the conversation away from the actual point or are just too blind to see it. False allegations do happen, but you know what also happens? The real thing. Nobody is fighting anything without proof here, this game is disgusting and it is reinforcing these incel ideas that women are objects. False allegations have nothing to do with this conversation, your bringing up an unrelated topic to try and justify this game in any way you can. You're missing the entire point of what Me or Doja Duck was saying, these games normalize this kind of behavior and thinking among people like you and, because you guys are turned on by this, causes some of you to go out and actually do these things. This does matter, there's real world effects that games like this have, your entire view of this situation is one of them. You're so gooner brained that you don't draw a line at what your even choosing to watch and, as long as you can get off, anything you watch is a-ok. Something existing for a long time doesn't mean that there shouldn't ever be an effort to remove it from our society, racism and other forms of oppression have existed for longer than you or I have been alive, but that doesn't mean that they are good or prove that they aren't harmful. Once again, GTA gives the player no reason to actually go out and commit violent acts, games like this however fetishize these things and, because you guys get off on that, normalize these ways of thinking and tell you that its okay by vilifying women, which then gives all of you this idea that women are somehow all evil creatures out to get you, which can then lead to you acting out your sick forms of "justice" in the real world on real people. Do research on this instead of just sitting here and defending this game because you enjoy it. It's clear that you aren't educated on the actual effects of games like these so go read articles talking about this issue instead of talking based on words you have been bouncing back at yourself.
Yes my reply to" you contribute to a culture that already does not take it seriously." is to talk about how people are accused of rape . Because how can people not take it seroiousley if that happens? Think about it . How can people end up in jail at mere accusations if it is not taken seriousley ? That statement makes 0 sense. And I'm not saying that real thing doesn't happen . It does and happened before and will happen no matter these games exist or not. It is just a matter of life. And this game does nothing . These are adults we are talking about . Not some kids who can't tell right from wrong . No one is telling you to go out and do those things. if you can't separate games from reality, that is your problem. At that point you should just go to mental hospital. And yes I like those games that dosent mean that I would do anything even close to that . By your logic everyone who likes horror movies or murder mysteries are going to become killers. And talking about GTA it gives the player no reason to actually go out and commit violent acts ? Tell me where does this game tell you or gives you the reason to do that ? If you didint know there is such a thing called CNC it is already a fetish. In CNC you don get off from the fact that it is consencual you get of on the idea that if isn't. But there is the fact that you are dealing with real human being and you make shore that it is consensual and agree on a safeword. The fact that some get off on the idea dosent mean anything. Basically anyone who are out of the norm on theyr preferences should have all theyr content related to that removed and baned because some dimwit might commit crime related to that.
What do you mean I turn a blind eye to them, also "bible thumpers"? When did I ever mention religion or the bible at all? You don't need religion to tell you that this is wrong. Games like this as a whole need to stop and nowhere in any of my comments did I excuse any games like this one or ones that were worse. I hate to break it to you but I'm not usually presented this kind of content because I don't consume it, but now that I have been I'm speaking against it. This is the worst defense to even try to make cause it means nothing. Just because there is worse out there does not make this any better. You are grasping at any way to defend this game because its so obviously wrong. Real characters or not, it doesn't matter, the things depicted in this game are beyond harmful and don't need to contain real life people to enact that harm. Games like these are dangerous and its clear that you don't care about the harm they cause because you enjoy it, so what does it matter the effect it has on the world? As long as you enjoy this twisted stuff you will defend this game to the ends of the earth to try and justify your consumption of it.
