No REAL adult needs seem naked game flesh to enjoy an adult game.

Hello, Scotsman.


He's right.

 i would hardly call it a game for adults even with the mature themes the rating here is MA 15+ for strong violence 

So, if you had a 15 year old, you would have no problems with them playing DA:O?

I wouldnt. Look mom, its like this: You can try to protect your kids, and they will be weak when they grow up. Or you can hand them enough rope to hang themselves, they will learn from this, and they will become strong and intelligent.

This assumes they have a strong character and are reasonably intelligent, of course (this is mostly your responsibility, too). If they dont, protect away.

Wow, you'd be a horrible parent. As a father myself I do NOT let my child play games like GTA or games that are over graphic on the sexual content. Yes, I let them play Dragon Age, but not for the reasons you say.

As a parent, you have chosen to create life, your child did not ask to be here, you made that choice for them. Therefore it is your job to protect them and educate them about some subjects when they are ready. Not every child is ready to learn about certain aspects of life when they turn 13 like our biased schools suggest.

According to your theory, I should hand my child a loaded gun and send them out by themselves to go hunting. And if they shoot themselves, well at least they learned something!

Your entire post is so invalid and blatantly stupid I can't comment enough on it. It is up the parent to decide when they teach their child about sex and nudity and the like. This doesn't mean you sit them down and let them watch a porn-o or other digusting sh*t.

My boy is only 8 years old but is extremely mature for his age and he'll probably be ready to learn about the bee's before he's 13. But this does NOT apply to every child.

You can either let your child raise themselves by watching TV and learning from other misled children, like most parents do today, or you can actually be responsible for the life you created and do it yourself.


Unfortunatly, the way our society views sex and religion is due to the stupid teachers in our schools today. They don't teach only the facts, instead they let their own opinions overwrite the FACTS and teach their opinions instead. I went in with my son to school for the whole 'Career Day' thing and the teacher wouldn't let them say the Pledge of Alliegance because it had God in it, another teach sued a different teacher for having 'In God We Trust' on her desk. What's this teaching our children? You tell me, 'cuz it's f*cked up.

I agree let's make the next game the Permiscuous Age or how about the Porn Age? That sound good? It's a f*cking video game... Get over it. Go watch some of the 10000000000 streaming porn sites and get your jollies there. Having nudity doesn't do sh*t for the game other than get it bashed by stupid and ignorant media stations. Nudity is not 'artistic' but it isn't something to be ashamed of either. Just leave it out and let the modders take care of it like they have done for every game in existance. Those of us who don't want it don't have to have it and those of you who do can have it without our favorite developers getting slammed by biased media stations. Simple solution.

Likewise, the game could ship with nudity and the modders could put panties on for you puritans. And this would be just as fair.

I want to know why there's all this complaining because an adult game doesn't have nudity. I didn't realize it was a necessity for games these days.

Read my post, you idiot. If they did this then developers would continue to get slammed. After reading your ideas on parenting, I'm just disregarding everything you say for now on because you clearly have no common sense or any other form of intelligence.

Tell me one benefit of having nudity in the game. There isn't any. You can use the age old excuse that it 'increases' your immersion. Which is probably the worst excuse ever. That's just like the excuse guys use in WoW when they make female characters, they do it because they don't want to 'stare at a guys ass the entire game." It's heinous and used by every pervert out there, just like yours.

Kreia was right. No, really. Conflict strengthens us. This has been my experience for my entire nearly 30 year life, as well as the experience of my father and grandfather who risked his life to save strangers during the war. They would not be the people they are, and i would not, if they had been meek and unthinking people.

As such, i'm of the opinion that raising weak kids makes one a horrible parent. Even in a well run first world country in peaceful times, you will have to butt heads with people and have runins with scammers. Intelligence and a strong will makes everything a bit easier, not to mention giving economical advantages, and that won't be developed by sheltering your kids.

And ultimately, cutting heads off people really is far far worse than seeing some nipples. If you simply prefer not to have nudity in your games, that's fair enough, but if you have some kind of moral argument for why it should not be in a game like this then you are just a hypocrite and possibly an idiot.

Immaturity abounds. Boobs or not, its still an M-rated game. So, if kids are playing it...they shouldn't be playing it, regardless of polygonal gazongas.



Some countries are just very strict about sexual content. So, rather than be unable to sell a game in certain places, they just made a blanket decision to cut the full-frontal-nudity in favour of something a little more reserved and enjoyable by more people - because now they can actually PLAY IT, rather than sitting on the sidelines going "Man, I'd love to play this game, but why did they have to put naked breasts in it :("

Conflict can strengthen an eight year old? Really? All an eight year old is going to learn from conflict at that age is that it's terrifying.

Protecting your child does not make you meek and unthinking. You can protect your child but still educate them. You can teach them about sex without letting them watch porn or letting them shag every girI they date. I think you had bad parents.

Letting your child learn for themselves is usuall hazardous to their health and is never worth the risk when I can teach my child the same thing in a secure environment. I teach him how to shoot a gun and still protect him, I can teach him about sex and still protect him. It doesn't mean I'm meek and unthinking, and please look up the word meek, it isn't synonmous with 'weak,' for the most part it means being humble, which is a good thing.

And I already stated that I've let my child play Dragon Age. I said I didn't let him play GTA. There is a huge difference between those two games.

Please, before you cast insults at least make sure you have a valid arguement to back them.

And for you information, both my grandparents and two of my uncles fought in WW2; My father's father went through Okanawa, the Phillpine Islands and La Tai, and was injured twice and THEN became a police officer. My other grandfather went died at Omaha. So don't pull that card on me buddy.

+1 i never really understood why some things need to be shown OR  why its such a big issue when they do. I dont really care either way especially when a game has a 18+ tag on it.

Never understood this hoolabaloo about nudity in games. How come it's ok to depict horrible beheadings in a game and no one lifts an eyebrow, but if there's even the slightest hint of nipple people go ape****. The human body can be very nice to look at and hardly damages anyone - seeing a horrible gushing hole where the head used to be is neither nice nor harmless.

Why is your 8 year old playing this kind of game? How is it in any way relevant? The example given was a 15 year old.

If we are going to have a conversation then you need to stay on topic and stop throwing out red herrings.

i dont make the ratings & the referance to the rating was more about the fact that i keep seeing it quoted on the forum what the age/rating/price is as though they are universal facts for the entire world

if my daughter was still that young yes i would but even at that age she was more mature & well balanced than many so called adults are till they hit 27-33
to be quite honest the themes in this game are in many ways less adult or mature than things most <15> year olds have access to on the net or in other forms of media(eg:film,music,print)  or talk about even if many parents want to live with the pixies & think their little angel (insert name here) would not see/talk about/do those sorts of things

You would care if an excellent game wasn't available in your entire country because you can't disable the full-frontal-nudity.

Why is he playing? Because he's interested in PC Games and it's a way for us to spend time together when it's too cold to throw the football? What's the difference between an 8 year old or a 12 year old?

What age are you talking about? I assumed you're talking about a younger child as its pretty obvious that a 16-18 year old has already seen a naked man/woman and learned about sex from source.

Also what's this about GTA? It's a game. Kids are not going to start carjacking and running over people just because they play it, just like they will not start beheading people after playing DA, just like they will not become sex addicts after seeing nipples. They are sex addicts already.

GTA is a stupid game with no plot and is generally horribly offensive to women. That's not what I want to teach my child. Any game that heals you just for buying a prostitute is stupid.

What's the... four years.

So you are fine with letting your 8 year old (did i get that right?) play a game where he kills people, but you are appalled at the idea that this same game has nudity? Please verify that this is correct before proceeding.

The Witcher was a great game but REALLY overdid it on the sex... Sleeping with women just because you gave them a diamond is pretty dumb. Basically every quest reward in that game was a sex scene.

You use games to teach your kids? As opposed to for entertainment? Because that's what games are (supposed to be).
