BrianX: "You only have to look at the increasing amount of bisexual, homosexual, and lesbian encounters in Bioware's games over the year." There I fixed it for ya :)
Come on. Just because there are relatively few games out there with 'Adult' content doesn't mean you have to jump on the bandwagon and out do them for sensationalist reasons. If anything, I believe that mature content is increasing and not only for games but for movies. Some of the stuff that goes for R these days is basically porn. If you did some research, I bet you would find that PG movies were much more prevalent decades ago than are now. Its either all R rated or G rated Pixar knockoffs.
I also don't mean to come off like I want to censer anything, not at all, I just wish that designers would offer a simple damn button that took out the profanity if not all the gratuitous sex scenes. I just ask for options, that's all! Why not sell both a PG-13 rated game and an R rated game? You might actually get a wider audience because you are casting the net out wider. Alot of TV shows do that where the show on TV is rated PG, but there are uncut and uncensored DVDs out there. Just gimme options to how much 'Adult' content I would like in the game rather than force me to endure through it, ESPECIALLY if its tasteless, which, in my opinion, I believe Witcher 1's Adult content was.
That's just it, no one is "forcing" you to do anything. You bought the game, presumably fully aware of the content it contained, given its rating. That was your choice, not GOG's or CDPRed's. You do have an option, you just chose to take the one that exposed you to the content you seem to dislike. Given that, you made the wrong choice.Come on.
