I honestly think the stuff with the bear was inappropriate too, and should not be in the game. And yes, yes, I know Halsin is still a humanoid, but it still depicts bestiality.
Okay, but could you articulate what is actually wrong about it? Lots of people will jump up quickly to say 'this is bestiality and that's wrong', but I'd like to ask: what are the things about bestiality for which people condemn it, and having defined those, are those aspects
Actually present in this situation? They're not.
Imagine there was a character who ages backwards [...], for some reason looks like a child, or perhaps was able to shapeshift, including into a child.
Yes, that person would have the mind of an adult, could consent and so forth, but an adult scene with that person still would be CP, just with extra steps.
No, it quite literally would not be. That's the point.
Your comments sound like the kinds of comments I've heard from people who would straight up tell me to my face that I should not have a sex life, or engage in intimate activity, because of my stature and appearance (I am a very small and quite petite woman) - people who would attempt to invalidate my right to be acknowledged as an adult and a sexual being, because of something that
they are mapping onto me and calling a problem.... and THAT is far more of a violation than a druid and their partner engaging in some consensual kink-play that is functionally just magical cosplay.
I'm actually just unhappy that they're playing it off as a silly joke.
Also, is bear literally the only wildshape that Halsin can do? And does he literally lose control of it, have it come out when he doesn't want, and lose his reason when in it? For real? What kind of
absolute shit druid is he? Is he actually just an acolyte first year fledgling druid pretending to be a proper one?
... no seriously, Halsin, bear's not my thing... but if you could manage a wolf maybe? I'm only a very small halfling after all....
OH, Oh, Oh! Is Halsin actually a werebear, and is just hiding the fact?
