Yes! How dare I voice my opinion on the forums! Honestly, we need to stop saying "you can just skip it" or "make a toggle for it" in general. It's poor design.
That's right!
Every single romance in the game must be implemented at all costs! No skipping for you! Also, cutscenes! You must watch all of those.
If you want a fade-to-black, you are given the
choice on whether to have it. Similar to having a helmet-on, helmet-off toggle would be preferred for some people: some gamers feel that it adds to immersion to wear it all of the time, some people want to see their avatars, or feel like it's more immersive for a character to not wear restrictive helmets during a conversation or when walking around town.
I fail to see how this is relevant. I'm talking about unrealistic sex scenes, not camera angles. By all means, keep the camera on the girl's face the entire time. (That's another thing that you're not supposed to do in Hollywood. Showing a female's face while she has an orgasm is taboo!) Just don't put ridiculous restrictions on it like "missionary only" or whatever.
In short, don't make it unrealistic.
Do I need to see that woman actually pushing? Do I need to see that umbilical cord cut? Do I need to see the entire five hours of that labor? Her water breaking? Mucus plug coming out?
No, these are details that are unnecessary, and for some, too gory and distasteful. You still understand what happens without any of these things being shown, and the emotion of the scene is not lessened because you watched her placenta come out. If you were in that room, you already have a stake in the birth--as the doctors, as the family. You don't need for music or camera angles or anything else to add to the feeling that isn't already there.
With a sex scene, in order for it to convey in the best possible way the emotion of the scenes, you do not want to put in anything that will distract the viewer or leave them feeling anything other than what you want them to feel. If you want to show graphic reverse cowgirl, you go right ahead. But, now, instead of feeling the love or romance or intimacy of that scene, all you're thinking about is the blatant pornography and the "Wow, those are
some jiggle physics".
But if we just faded to black, you'd still know what was going on! Even better, the entire scene would be left to your imagination! How are these severely restricted, lame sex scenes better than that?
Because it's impersonal. You don't know how it was like for
them. If you're the mother who just gave birth, is watching someone else's labor going to invoke and remind the feelings
you had? To a degree. But is it the same? No, it's
their labor,
their kid, not yours.
Similarly, you can imagine whatever the hell you like during a sex scene that fades to black. From your own experiences, from seeing movies, reading books, whatever. But how does that tell you what it was like in this scenario? It doesn't. It's impersonal.
EDIT: I should clarify that "personal"
still doesn't mean exactly what positions and exactly how many thrusts were done or whatever. It's about emotion, not technicality.

Nah, I'm not mad.
Retour en haut
I have no idea what you're trying to say.
