hisaoSexualized video games are not causing harm to male or female players, according to new research
I dunno if it’s just cause I’m older, but sex scenes in games and movies seem so unnecessary, what are they even there for? I was playing cyberpunk and nudity isnt a big deal but why were those sexually explicit ads necessary to the story?
Something basic like the Mass Effect series helps sell the idea that you really did form a fully fledged relationship over the course of the game. As for Cyberpunk, the setting is literally designed to be dripping with sexuality. It’s not necessary for the story itself, but if you removed all the sex ads the setting simply wouldn’t reach the same level of “megacorporations maximizing psychological exploitation techniques”.
The paint is, sex and sexuality is rarely ever part of the narrative. Take it away and the story is still the same.
the setting is an important part of the narrative too. the tasteless commodification of sex is absolutely relevant to the overall story the game is telling.
We’ll have to agree to disagree. I’ve never seen gender or relationships be relevant to the story of any game I’ve played.
You have (cyberpunk 2077), you just failed to comprehend it.
V’s gender is entirely irrelevant in the fact heat they are either male or female or neither. And no romance or relationship has fuck all to do with the plot. It’s just side baggage and annoying cringe.
You can complete the game and not have ever had a single line of dialogue on relationships.
Therefore?
Irrelevant.
