Randallteal posted:The audience for rape porn games existing doesn't bother me as much as how many of them get made compared to other kinds of porn games. I don't think it's actually a video game-specific problem though. Porn with rapey premises like step parent / step child, boss / employee, or landlord / tenant are ubiquitous on sites like Pornhub and Xvideos. I'm more disturbed by that than by wanting to get hosed by a demon or lead a nude barbarian girl into spike traps or whatever. The creepiest games that get posted in here are ones with more realistic settings like the one where you drug and molest tenants in an apartment complex. i guess the reason why so much rape/incest fantasy porn gets made compared to vanilla is the same as why so many big movies are action flicks compared to mundane slice of life stuff. same thing with games. there's definitely super popular chill games like sims or animal crossing, but the biggest names that print cash are yearly installments of call of duty, asscreed, etc so yeah, it's just me guessing but it doesn't seem surprising to me that porn would also lean into fantastic/violent direction, considering how every other piece of popular media is also, super agree on what the creepiest poo poo is lol Randallteal posted:Steam opening the doors to porn games could be a great thing for cleaning up the market, but they've really been half assing regulating it. yeah. i don't think valve is going to clean anything. their standards on accepting adult only (and sometimes non-18+ too) games seem completely arbitrary at this point. most of the hosed up poo poo posted here stays but every now and then something relatively inoffensive just mysteriously gets refused/unlisted, and people tend to only notice when internets get super angry about it lmao can't believe my digital video game store monopoly is this stupid - probably a light novel title

The only alternative is that he's really, really, REALLY into rape games, which bodes poorly for the women living near him.

I'm of the opinion that all these rape games generally serve as relief valves for the people making and playing them, so they're acting out their fantasies in a safe and controlled manner. Still, it's the kind of thing you enjoy quietly in your own home, not attempt to make serious discussions of the artistic merits of Rapelay or whatever. (Also I have mild disapproval of the games where you are rewarded with porn for losing, and just had the cynical thought that they seem to have informed the design of the latest Tomb Raiders and maybe the continual loving-up of Ethan Winters' hands, but that's not exactly relevant to the discussion at the moment)

I think that as FATAL, because AFAIK older editions of Exalted, while having more than its share of tiddie-art, weren't... that.

FATAL: too many dice so you can somehow create a character with an rear end that can fit children inside it. Exalted: You are a divine superwarrior who can punchsplode enemies from level 1, and everything is balanced around crazy high power stuff on all sides. There are TRexes that piss cocaine. FATAL; creepy and wierd. Exalted; over the top stupid and fun (meant to be at least)

Yeah that's RIFTS, which was basically a ruleset designed to be able to handle any character from any world, so you can have Godzilla fighting Megatron or whatever. Megadamage is a hell of a thing.

New Exalted was darker and edgier to the max in 2013, so basically 31 flavors of rape. https://www.somethingawful.com/dungeons-and-dragons/burn-down-whitewolf/1/ Coincidentally, the publishing company White Wolf which runs Exalted and World of Darkness is no longer allowed to publish their works without supervisory approval from the company that owns them, Paradox, checking it first to make sure it is acceptable after repeatedly including white supremacist stuff in their books and writing very weird and hosed up things about LGBTQ world issues.

Played it, the predecessor and the prologue games with friends hoping for a laugh and it was just bad gameplay, bad walking, bad story and bad horror. Also dicks & tits aren't scary just because you shove them into the players face. Whoever made these games has loads of issues.

The next game from parts of that studio is about an incel who stops taking his meds and starts hallucinating about women who live in his appartement building turning into demons out to kill him. From what little I saw of the trailer you sneak around and murder female demons. I noped out pretty drat hard from that poo poo let me tell you. There's a difference between the tree scene in Evil Dead and Salo.

For the record just in case anyone's not familar, FATAL isn't actually played by anyone, anywhere, except occasionally as a joke, given the game is both overcomplicated to the point of parody (to actually resolve having sex in-game, you need to solve quadratic equations) and has absolutely no actual appeal beyond bizarrely overcomplicated mechanics for violence and rape, being effectively unplayable.Don Gato posted:It's not often that you're so bad that faceless corporate overlords are an upgrade in every way but by god White Wolf found a way. Most of the old school names in traditional RPGs are like that. Mostly since it's the same old weird nerds writing them who've only gotten older and weirder, and haven't really made much progress on the actual mechanics beyond making them slightly less needlessly overcomplicated than they used to be.

I thought White Wolf created World of Darkness and VtM and Werewolf and stuff? Which while overly fluffy and sometimes really cringy aren't all that bad or at least not filled with rape and the like (I guess the Embrace could be seen as kind of rapey?) I wonder why with Exalted they went so...weird. Was this kickstarter during gamergate or something? Maybe they had to show they had no truck with all this *feminism*

White Wolf made those, but those all had tons of other edgier supplements under the Black Dog imprint and then later Onyx Path. Sometimes you get Charnel Houses of Europe where they make a real effort to treat the matter with sensitivity, but then you get the moronic rape contest in the Infernal book in Exalted. And the Baali in VtM. I think a lot of the people from those two ended up in control and that's how you get "actually the Chechens were secretly hunting vampires too" and "Some good Brujah examples are neo-nazis."

FATAL has rules for if your penis is X cm wider then Y hole it has Z chance of killing the target. You can make characters who just gently caress things to death.

The books have always had some pretty bad stuff in them, but the average player usually doesn't engage with or even acknowledge that stuff.
