that's not okay either and why i don't play games like grand theft auto. mowing down pedestrians with a car or weapons isn't my idea of a fun game. if other people need to do that to release anger, feel better about themselves or more powerful, whatever. i don't need it and i don't do it. i just think there should be a few things that are off limits, some of you obviously don't.
also do you realize where art comes from. any npc that is crafted has to come from some inspiration in reality. a face a painter paints is either his exact interpretation of a subject model, or a mishmash of all the faces hes seen. thats why we seen in many games, faces that look like famous indiviuals. true there is no connection, but if someone made a game with a kid that looked like yours (and children look even more like each other than adults do) wouldn't you be upset if there were people all over the world who had the abilty to smash the kids face in, burn it with a flamethrower, etc etc. again its wrong to do this to adults as well, but as i've said children are far more innocent than adults so can't we give them this one break and not subject them to this.
also i'm not sure what the laws are but i believe in the case or child pornography, even if its art of a child doing lewd acts you'd still probably be arrested in many parts of the world. this ties into the whole notion though that violence is more acceptable and 'whitewashed' in our society.
also say we were talking about a game that took place in the context of palenstine and israel current and or historic conflict. if i had stated displeasure in that "i want to rip out that godless ____ heart and throw it on the ground and then urinate on it" i would just be making a realistic game demand. i think not. if i had say palenstinian or more likely jew in that regard i would have gotten all kinds of ire. so again and i change, as i've wanted to for a while my label of "sick fucks" to "sad fucks", it is sad that child killing is so easily unupsetable (yes i know thats not a word).
i'll only drop this thread if JDR apologizes, and or everyone else stops acknowledging he had every right to say such a remark.
