Do the players of these games also require these warnings on fora ? Or is this just a campaign targeted at BG3 ?


I don't know exactly, what you mean. I certainly don't target BG3, since it is one of my favourite games of all time. The discussion came up in another thread and I was curious. But seeing, that it is a hot topic, I do regret it a bit.
I think most mature games have a content warning. I don't think, that there are trigger warnings in games, that would be pretty much destroying all immersion.

Ok, from the title of the thread and the first posts, it seemed to me that the question was whether it is necessary to add warnings inside of the game to steer players away from choices that might make them uncomfortable afterwards.

I skipped over most of the later back-and-forth posts (full of abbreviations that I don't have a clue what they mean anyway), but understood it's not just about feeling uncomfortable, but serious anxiety and mental problems. So that made me think, is there something special in BG3 that would require this ? Or are there other games outthere that have this feature and how does it work ?

Don't feel compelled to anwser. I 'm just trying to clarify what I meant in the previous post.
