Nudity or not, it's not going to make me like the game more or less. I don't care.
It seems like a big deal to most people though.
Trust me, it's really a minority that cares about nudity. Even polls conducted on the BSN forums shows that over half don't care about seeing them ****** in the game. It's silly argument that nudity is part of maturity in a video game.
I think people confuse maturity with setting. If you have a game like The Witcher set in a world which is basically Medieval Europe with Elves, Magic and Dwarves, you
expect to see ****s, naked homless men, poor people who can't afford clothes etc... it doesn't have to be sexualised, it can be rather depressing and gritty.
I've been to third-world countires where I've literally seen men so poor the only thing they had wrapped around them was some worn out blanket they probably found in a bin. I won't find it hard imagining the same for a a Medieval Society.
Though Dragon Age is somewhat lighter than the Witcher, I find that its art-style hinders it in that respect. DA cities can look
alot worse and worn down if only the engine supported it. With the Frostbite 3 engine, hopefully enviroments will fit the setting. So far it was like trying to recreate the movie "Black Death" with the Kingdom Hearts engine.
