Subject: GTAV is going to have first person sex scenes (NSFW duh.)
Ok, lets try and rescue this trainwreck of a thread. Enough with the petty back and forth, the ftfy, the discussions about what coding language includes what symbol, and the general OT and rude posting that is going on in this thread. Keep it calm or the thread dies a horrible burning death
I wish I had time for all the game systems I own, let alone want to own...

Wahoo.. First Person sex scenes. *yawn* not buying it for that Rockstar. If I want First Person sex scenes, I'll have real life sex thank you very much lol.
I've actually gotten kinda bored with GTA games. There's no really engaging plot for me.

2. In my opinion anything that pushes the "non-gameplay" part also pushes diversity in gameplay mechanics. When the player is presented new situations, it is expected that mechanics also change. eg. Chivalry uses diffrent mechanics than your average fps. If it used similiar mechanics the whole melee would feel "off" (see. Skyrim)
3. Sex scenes with even minimal interaction (player chooses what he wants to do, he can move camera) are new. How often you see something mechanically new things in games? Latest ubi games are basically copy pastes of previous titles and latest cod adds mechanics that are over 10 years old.
Not wanting to play gta v because it has first person sex scenes+ hooker killing is like not wanting to play gta:sa because you play as a black person.
Why would I want this when I can do it for real?
Do you play games because they try to imitate something or play because it's mechanically fun? I like euro truck simulator because it is something different from other games. I have to switch gears, look incoming traffic, navigate through europe, pay attention to various resources (being sleepy while driving in rain with a 20 ton volvo truck= not a good idea).
Every time I hear "in my opinion" or "just my opinion" makes me want to strangle a puppy. People use their opinions as a shield that other poeple can't critisize and that is bs.
If you can't defend or won't defend your opinion then that "opinion" is bs. Stop trying to tip-toe and defend what you believe in.

In GTA? Yes. In general? No. Sex games have been around for ages, especially when looking at (surprise!) Japanese games, featuring themes such as underage sex, rape or bestiality. Or all of those.

General Custer's Revenge begs to differ.
Really, argueing that sex scenes is anything other than catering to certain desires of the target demographic - much like booth babes at conventions or certain character designs - is both unnecessary and naive. Though I suppose you could count this as "adding diversity", in the same way like hentai games are adding diversity to the market as a whole. But in terms of game mechanics this is no more "diverse" than, say, requiring a player in GTA to perform an eating quicktime event everytime their character wants to eat a snack. The obvious difference is that this won't be as popular as virtual sex, and I think we all know the reason for that.
The part about San Andreas is true, though. In fact, I'd argue that the protagonist's ethnicity made it a more interesting game.

Also, I don't want to play this GTA because it's going to suck just like the last few GTAs did. Them adding in a cheap, poorly done sex scene won't change this. You're making nonsense assumptions and strawman arguments again.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

So you think that's equivalent to say... Nintendo having Mario do a quicktime event in order to use the mushroom he picked up?

My point was that where did I do anything anywhere close to your original point 4?
If I am saying people do not beat up taxi clients because that would interrupt the taxi mission, does that seems like I mean they target the prostitutes because they are prostitutes?

You didn't make a point, you just made a joke. I can't mind read, I just assumed you were deflecting my remark with humour.
I was taking issue with you making an assertion and acting as though it was self evidently true without elaborating on who these "people" were or why you think they're "systemically" killing prostitutes.
