 Well OP, I wish I could explain to you what the point of sex and nudity is is any medium, but I don't think it's possible for me to do in a manner that would make you understand better than watching this gameplay from Rust. Behold, the pinnacle of online multiplayer sultural development: The Penis Brotherhood.

If it feels SO right... how can it be wrong?!?

You want a great example of graphic sex in service of art? The Swedish version of Girl with a Dragon Tattoo. It was rape, it was brutal, it had to be explicit. 

Fincher version is better

wow @ thread.
well, the sex and nudity is part of everday daily life.
everyone is different and unique in their own ways, may it be stories they make or give meaning behind the relationship on sex or nudity.

What is the point of violence in any medium?

[Cassandra Saturn]

I generally dislike violence, I'm not kind of girl who will fight or hurt, kill.
I'm pacifist so.. yeah. but I will defend myself even if I get threatened.

the point behind violence in sense of any medium is to make people see that violence is pretty much part of our daily life unfortunately.

Picking your nose is also part of our daily lives, yet no one wants to see it. Sex is nice and all, but it's a personal thing for many and something you do in private. I guess that's the alure of it and why it sells, but I cringe when I see people praise games like the Witcher 2 for its sex scenes (really, such an amazing game and you like the nipple show?) when in reality it's the same kind of cheesy sex scenes you can watch on German television at around 23:00.

It doesn't have a point other than, look folks, we're not afraid to show them there nipples.

One could argue the point is to advance the love story between Geralt and Triss.

I think that part you quoted was more of a general statement and not actually aimed at The Witcher 2

yup.

I think that's even harder to determine if you ask me. There's probably less reasoning for that one. I'm trying to think of a good reason but I don't think there's any except that people get entertainment from it.

Because everything that is off-limits or "bad" for you as a kid is considered... "MATURE"
Likewise, anything you did as a kid is considered childish.

An incredibly stupid notion, but humanity is very stupid.

Unfortunately a lot of writers think that adding sex, violence, drug and stuff like that automaticly makes it "mature".

Maturity is ill-defined and over-used as a word, so don't expect clarity there, but this gist of it is no WHAT you show, but HOW you show it. The age old "don't judge the book by it's cover, but rather by content".

Violence is the most basic expression of power.

Maybe that's why people like it, I don't know. Its still seems more pointless than nudity

Most games would be boring as hell, if there was no violence.

I think there are some settings where it's fine and some where it isn't. The Witcher and ASoIaF both fit the former. In general, people get concerned over the wrong things. I especially find youtube's prudish policies hilarious. Severed heads and geysers of blood are A-ok while two people bumping uglies isn't.

I haven't played any Witcher games but all of the topics on it are really forcing my hand...

Sure, I agree on that, can't picture myself playing a game without violence but still. Maybe people do feel powerful in video games through violence but what about movies and other stuff, you don't really have control over anything.

Which makes games that can pull it off that much more fascinating.  If you actually sit down and think about how many games are based around killing some enemy or another, you realize how few games deviate from the formula.
