"And my only real issue is the porn content, I don't really have any issue with violent games (if it isn't too graphic)."

This is interesting to me. Why are people  so much more comfortable with media showing torture, gore, and gruesome levels of violence? You can remove a guys head from his body and nobody bats an eye, but show a boob and omg call the church we gotta exorcise these demons!!!

It's a cultural phenomenon. Plus historical bias or whatever. There is a certain symetry between the US and other English native speaking countries and Europe. Violence is "accepted" in US more than nudity, while it is the other way round in Europe. One will see it in the age rating justification for mature like games used in rating systems like Pegi and ESRB.

Other places will have even other biases in that regard. Even in regard to video games as such. Japan is a strange one at that, with their mosaic censorship but no issues with the topics currently discussed. And certain countries have a big issue with anything lgbt, others with anything of an adult nature and for different reasons, with video games itself.
