Right?

Almost every game I've ever played has had adult content of different levels, and I once played in a game where we resolved several situations with an application of gratuitous sex (no, I'm not joking), and had two separate dragons try it on with my character. In all cases we had fade-to-black sex scenes (yes, even in that one game), and players sometimes got their boundaries a bit pushed, but a little bit of respectful conversation between players and DM went a long way towards resolving any issues we had regarding sexual content.

Sometimes, people view their character's sexual preferences (or lack thereof) as an important part of what makes up their whole character, and sometimes they don't. People's comfort regarding sexual content varies wildly, and this is why I'm very much in favour of people being able to opt-out of sex scenes if they want to. I get that Larian perhaps wants to push on some boundaries, but that isn't going to be something everyone likes or wants.
