You linked to one source that words it in a way that backs up your claims.
However you should check more than one source to avoid unintentionally spreading misinformation.
That was 2010 though so it was before the snowflake uprising.
The child playing the game is also a violation of the TOS.
You can not be virtually raped. It’s as simple as that. The definition
From met.police.uk
The legal definition of rape is when a person intentionally penetrates another’s vagina, anus or mouth with a penis, without the other person’s consent.
Perhaps you could explain how one goes about penetrating someone over the internet or phone?
It’s bullying at the very most.
Because in VR unlike real life you can turn it off and that’s exactly what she should have done.
Also they aren’t investigating sexual harassment they are investigating rape. You can not be raped over the internet.
It also begs the question where were the parents while this was happening?

Some people are getting triggered over Palworld
Some people are getting triggered over Palworld - Lemmy.World
Palworld is essentially Pokemon with guns. You catch animals and then force them to fight other animals just like Pokemon. However in Palworld you can make your Pals work in your camp and you sell them and kill and eat them. It’s these last two points that people are rushing to the internet to call out. You see it’s also possible to catch humans in Palworld. Once caught you can make your human do everything you can make a Pal do. Even sell them, and they’re very valuable. The game does say that catching and enslaving humans is considered inhumane in Palworld but once you ignore that message you have your very own human servant that will fetch a good price once sold. As you can imagine there are those that are getting all worked up over a game that “promotes human trafficking” and “slavery.” But they have all forgotten the most important point. They aren’t real people. You can’t enslave a video game character. Now obviously if you did it real life that’s a whole other issue but doing it in a game is not a problem. At least the police haven’t gotten involved yet unlike the case of the police in the UK actually spending money and resources investigating a rape that took place in a VR game which is just as ridiculous as it sounds. Now I’m off to create my very own human army in Palworld.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle coming to Xbox an PC this year
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle coming to Xbox an PC this year - Lemmy.World
Machine Games finally unveiled Indiana Jones and the Great Circle during the Xbox Developer Direct and the game is looking very promising. Set between Raiders of the Lost and The Last Crusade the predominantly first person game will see Indiana Jones travel the globe to solve an ancient mystery. While the bulk of the gameplay will be in first person there will be moments of traversal and cutscenes that will pull back to a third person perspective. As for Jones himself the character uses Harrison Fords likeness and voice acting legend Troy Baker (The Last of Us, Uncharted) voices the character in a very good approximation of Fords voice. While we didn’t get a firm release date we do know that the adventure kicks off for Xbox Series S|X and PC in 2024. The Great Circle will also be coming to GamePass on release.
Despite campaigns for boycott's, Hogwarts Legacy was 2023's best selling game
Despite campaigns for boycott's, Hogwarts Legacy was 2023's best selling game - Lemmy.World
Hogwarts Legacy has ended a 14 year streak of the best selling game in the US being either a Rockstar game or Call of Duty. The exact US sales figures for the Harry Potter sim weren’t released but we do know the game shifted in impressive 22 million copies globally in 2023. This all despite some very vocal members of the community calling for a boycott of anything even remotely related to JK Rowling over her opinion that biological women should have the right to protected single sex spaces such as public toilets and changing rooms. They absolutely should btw. IGN until recently included a disclaimer about the author in every article they posted about the Harry Potter universe. Did you buy Hogwarts Legacy or did you boycott the game?
Hellblade II will be a digital only release
Hellblade II will be a digital only release - Lemmy.World
Ninja Theory has finally shared more details about the hotly anticipated Hellblade II. Announced all the way back at The Game Awards in 2019 right with the reveal of the Series X itself the game will be out on Xbox Series S|X and PC on May 21st 2024 and will also be a day-one GamePass title. The game will be a short experience it will cost £50 instead of the now usual £70 but that’s where the good news ends. In a blow for game ownership and preservation Hellblade II will not be getting a physical release and is following in Alan Wake II’s footsteps and going digital-only. Developer Ninja Theory claims the lack of physical release gives them the freedom to charge less for the game however there are plenty of physical games that release at the £50 price point. The lower price is because the game is short and they know customers will not pay premium price for a short game. The digital only release of a first party Xbox game does give the rumoured digital only Series X mid-gen update more credibility though as more first party Xbox games may chose to skip the physical market. Not that most people that play it will buy it anyway as it will be on GamePass from day one. Are you still planning on buying Hellblade II now it’s won’t be getting a disc release? It was bad enough that I own the first game on PlayStation 4 and its sequel is an Xbox exclusive but for me no physical version means the game is a hard pass which a shame as I enjoyed the first game very much.
