I´m going to try to be as concise as possible. I see people here and in the steam forums complaining about the excess of sexual content in the game. Here´s my point of view about that. May be I can interest you.

I think that we can´t extrapolate our customs and moral valuies to a fantasy world like the one represented in this game. Which is a world, by the way, full of danger. Most people there seem to die young and fast. So, to me, it makes perfect sense that after an encounter like the one I´ve just had with the spiders, the adventurers would want to celebrate life in a way that is alien to us earthlings. In a real sense, it is more immersive, it takes us to that world in a different way. And we can share their celebration as we please, indeed.

So now I´m adressing Larian: don´t pay atention to people who take their moral values to their enjoyment of art, captive by a dogmatically narrowed point of view about existence. Least of all, don´t let them impose their limits upon art. They never did, and they never will.

That´s what I have to say, thanks for reading.

Hi, we already have a topic where people are discussing this point so I'd recommend joining the discussion over at https://forums.larian.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=876998.

I'll lock this thread so we don't end up with duplicate conversations.
