ChrisGamer300: True but do gamers need their goverments claiming moral high ground while policing the entertainent they consume even though you are an adult who can take responsiblity for your own actions or most can atleast, The drug use in We Happy Few isn't worse than the shit you can do in other games anyway, the australian goverment are somehow fixated on drug use for some reason.
amok: I guess it depends on how the drug use is portrayed, not whether there is or not.
ChrisGamer300: Fallout 3 was originally banned in australia for drug use until it got censored while shooting body parts of people was fine, enslaving people was fine etc, it smells of double standard to me.
amok: actually, it is not double standards as these are two different issues. I don't agree with it, but it is not double standards.
ChrisGamer300: They can have a warning text about drug use on the game if they must but outright forbid people to buy is not the best solution, soon the goverment will decide when you can eat, sleep and shit too.
amok: I don't know enough about Australian regulations to comment. I imagine there are sort of scales involved, the degree and portrayal and such.
That was a poor choice of word sry, yes it's different but in terms of what's morally correct i'm not seeing much of an difference here but somehow their goverment does.
Well they claim the drug use make the game easier which i guess it does sort of and they say it's glorification but is this is an issue worth banning the game over ? i do think most people understand that drugs are bad without the need for going overboard and ban it in it's entirety but that's just how i see it and maybe you have a different view.
