Is it morally acceptable to play a video game just for its sexual content?
Games like Dead or Alive and Senran Kagura have a massive fanbase, and the only thing that they have is sexual content. Meanwhile, most good games get ignored only because they don't have sexual content.
>most good games get ignored only because they don't have sexual content. like what?
Thomas Walker
As long as you are enjoying the game, nothing else matters.
Carter Williams
Those are some nice milkers
Parker Green
>Is it morally acceptable to play a video game just for its sexual content? It's kinda pathetic and definitely not something you should brag about, but ultimately, everyone has their own guilty pleasures, and wise people know tolerance is a virtue. So as far as I'm concerned - it's fine, just keep it a private thing, and have enough dignity / self-awareness to know the difference between "good" and "guilty pleasure".
Connor Brooks
>Games like Dead or Alive and Senran Kagura have a massive fanbase No they don't, they are pretty much niche titles. And morals need to stay out of virtual media unless they are used as stylistic device of some kind.
Christopher Cooper
Sexy stuff is the low-budget developer's substitute for good graphics. They're exactly as important as one another, it's just eye candy. It won't redeem bad gameplay and you can absolutely get by without having it, but it will catch my attention.

someone went and killed 50 people with cold blood and this faggot ponders whether games with boobies will make him feel bad
Daniel Campbell
And you are in a video game board bitching about muh think of the children. Go to a more appropiate board to talk that or fuck off.

>Is it morally acceptable to play a video game just for its sexual content >morally
What the fuck.
How should I know of your personal morals?
Fuck off, retard.

What, exactly, could possibly be morally wrong about ogling fake characters in the privacy of your own home? I understand calling it a lot of things, but things that are morally wrong usually harm someone or something other than yourself.

posts like this get easier guaranteed replies than casually going into a thread, posting "threads like this are why trump will win in 2020" and then leaving
Ethan Bell
The shooter was an incel who probably loved creepy porn games like this. Honestly it's time to switch to the Epic Games Store until Steam cracks down on this crap. Women and minorities are in danger.

>people itt don't even know the difference of morals and ethics
This. I'm not harming anyone or stealing from anyone by sitting in my room and enjoying the sight of big jiggling anime tiddies.
Adrian Price
>morally acceptable What a strange way to put it. What if it is? What if it isn't? I mean who's the judge and what's at stake here? They're just games.
Leo Martinez
I generally don't, when I want sexual content I look at porn, not play video games.
Nicholas Gonzalez
>people itt don't even know the difference of morals and ethics I strongly doubt you actually do know the difference. Amuse us and tell us what you think those words mean.
Alexander Clark
It’s not my thing, but it’s not a moral issue. No one is harmed, so do it if ya want to do it.
Samuel Green
Yes. Tons of people watch porn and aren't ashamed of it. If you like videogames with big anime tiddies it's basically the same thing. Maybe the game doesn't feature full on penetration but you still like to wack off to it. Do whatever makes you happy. Sexy games should be just as morally acceptable as violent games are. If it's socially acceptable to enjoy murdering shit in a game it should be socially acceptable to enjoy big fat titties in a game.
Jason Harris
I don't play Senran Kagura solely for the sexual content: it's a big part of it but not all, I like the admittedly mediocre action brawler combat. There's plenty of genres that are similarly lewd but I have little interest in them because I don't enjoy the genre of gameplay (turn based RPGs, gacha games, dungeon crawlers, strategy, etc).
Josiah Richardson
Not letting you out of the pinch. Read a book sometime.
Adrian Foster
So... you don't actually know the difference. I am well familiar with definitions commonly used in philosophical academia, including the ones you'll find in Oxford Philosophical Dictionary and Stanford Encyclopedia. I did study the shit.
Now: amuse me. Please tell me how you think those words are actually "properly" used.
Easton Smith
Completely dumb faggot OP.
Christian Bell
Morality really only factors into developing games. Consuming them is just a means of increasing your happiness, so it doesn’t really matter how this is done.
>the only thing that they have is sexual content Wrong. Once you get past your confirmation bias you'll realize it's not smart to judge a book by its cover.
Is it morally acceptable to reduce something down to only one of its inalienable characteristics in order to pass judgment on it?
Nobody but a christfag would think it's morally wrong, not even an SJW, except those pathetic male fake ones.
Now whether it's embarrassing or creepy, that's a different story.
Aaron Rivera
>most good games get ignored only because they don't have sexual content. Like? Personally, I think any type of content in videogames is fine, as long as it's warned. The games you mentioned are not precissely sneaky about it. I'd be upset if I wanted to play something "serious" and suddenly get a chic with huge breast almost popping out or a dude with a bulge. The only problem is over-saturation of one thing (which is solved by creating your own content), but sexual content on itself I wouldn't say it is.
OK, here is a proposition. I'll post mine in a spoiler, you post yours.
There is no universal agreement on what the difference between the two words actually is. For the most part, they are used - even in academia, as interchangeable. However, there is a trend (one that you will find acknowledged, among others, in the aformentioned Oxford dictionary), that the term "Morals" denotes a concrete set of normatives, codes and value assesments used by an individual or a group, while "ethics" is actually the term labeling a FIELD that studies morals, or general theories on which morals are studied. That is the most common distinction drawn, but in reality they are by no means universal and most authors use the terms as they desire, either as interchangeable, or having their own specific clarification on how they are going to employ them in their papers.
Now your turn, retard.
Chase Rodriguez
Video games shouldn't have sexual content. Just get a fucking girlfriend you incel. Sony is doing the right thing
Parker Peterson
for games I prefer good gameplay
if I want tits then porn is plentiful
Nathan Peterson
Yes. Is it worth it? Not to me. I realized the only thing that kept me playing fighting games these days was tits and ass. And that's a really retarded reason to play these games. I wouldn't pick male characters, period, and I would jump in from game to game without really devoting any time to any one.
Owen Morris
People that play games because their dick told them to are weak and their opinion on vidya means nothing
Hunter Collins
>"threads like this are why trump will win in 2020" It'd be more correct to say people who make threads like this are why Trump won 2016.
Luis Rodriguez
Sexual content is a viable means of attracting a certain audience - we are sexual creatures, after all. However, regardless of all the bells and whistles a game might have, not many people will stick around if the game itself sucks. Compare the Dead or Alive series to something like Girl Fight! - both are fighting games which aim for sex appeal. However, there's a reason why GF has yet to get a sequel while DoA is on its sixth iteration - the DoA games themselves are enjoyable on their own, while GF's gameplay is shallow and not very fun. To say DoA is only played for its sex appeal is to ignore the underlying systems that made the series truly click with people for the most part. Why do you think DoA has a scene in the first place?
As to whether or not it's moral? That's not the right question to ask. Sure, it's funny to see those blokes who shield their eyes whenever tits pop up on the screen, but sexuality is a personal and private thing - of course some people, including adult men, are bound to be offended. Moreover, there may be other personal reasons why such content is sensitive to certain people. However, when a game advertises its sex appeal, it is specifying a target audience that excludes those offended people. As a result, the people who clamour for censorship of the content within these games are those who are excluded from the specified target audience.
That being said, it's just bitching in the end, but it's harmful. Games live and die not necessarily by their quality, but through word of mouth. To this day many people buy Mortal Kombat games simply because they want to see some fatalities - the biggest reason why the series saw success - and are not actually concerned with the games' quality. When you have these screeching harpies who not only feel offended by certain products but can't understand that not everything is meant to appeal to them, that's when sexual content becomes a problem for game developers.
Video games shouldn't have violent content. Just get a fucking punching bag you incel. China is doing the right thing
Adam Foster
>morally Who gives a fuck about your opinions?
Justin Rivera
No, you have porn for that. Stop wasting your money and being a leech
Robert Baker
If someone happens to enjoy using video games as their fap material there's nothing wrong that. It's healthy and fun to masturbate and achieve orgasm regularly.
>your friends may not act like it but they secretly feel bad for you They don't know.
Henry Carter
That's different because I can't just go outside and slice a guy in two or mow down a load of people with a rifle. I can however interact with another human and share a moment of intimacy.
Brandon Anderson
I play games entirely for the reason that they have cute, adorable, soft, small girls. It's fun to look at them. It's fun to imagine what it would be like to date them. It's nice to think about what it would feel like to hold their hands and have them always look up to you and love you. I wonder what it would be like to wake up next to a cute girl. Being able to date cute young girls is the only acceptable reason to play video games desu.
>Meanwhile, most good games get ignored only because they don't have sexual content.
This sounds nearly exactly like that resident Yea Forums autist who claims that Yea Forums doesn't like Metroid Prime because it doesn't have enough sexy Samus.
>Is it morally acceptable to play a video game just for its sexual content? Is it morally acceptable to watch a video just for its sexual content
Is it morally acceptable to read a book just for its sexual content?
Is it morally acceptable to talk to someone just for their sexual content?
The answer for all of these questions is yes you stupid fuck.
Parker Clark
Sure whatever i don't give a fuck what you do LOL
David James
Muslims aren't people
Cooper Mitchell
Senran has also been on the decline as well despite the increased shilling of lewds. Just goes to show that tits and ass alone can't keep a series going.
It's not that your morals are different You have no morals at all
Carter Gutierrez
You literally have it backwards
Leo Rivera
What is this? It looks super interesting.
Jaxon Watson

Samuel Johnson
The point he was trying to make is: everyone makes their own morals so why don't you too OP?
Jeremiah Bell
The general populace loves porn, it's just when it comes to video games or anything 2d you have prudes screeching "think of the children!1!1!!"
Alexander Peterson
No I do not. Because even though I'm autistic I still made an effort with my life. Unlike most of the fucking incels in this shithole who are too scared to leave their room to go to the toilet so they piss in old bottles.
Jordan Brown
At the very least he thinks others trying to push their morals unto him is a bad thing and that's a moral judgement.

>Is it morally acceptable to play a video game just for its sexual content?
Yes, it is morally acceptable. What is morally questionable is the whale hunting done with DOA that borders on profiting off of sexual addiction.

This. OP should be flogged on the streets for being a fucking idiot.
Imagine if you walked in on your girlfriend playing a game where gay guys were shaking their dicks on your TV. You'd get weirded out and mad too

Xavier Evans
uhh no I'm pretty sure we wouldnt give a shit have thou ever heard of gachi? that shit didnt become famous because of women dumbass
Juan Lee
Yes. If you want a porn game, go play Trials in Tainted Space, go ERP, or just watch porn. Don't reward these weeblords for polluting gaming with their shitty fanservice.
It doesn't matter what kind of content game provide as long you have fun with it, and if your game isn't appealing to people then you failed as developer, blaming other games for your own failure is just an excuse.
I meant no, if that wasn't clear from the context. My bad.

Asher Williams
Weeb devs be like >hey lonely faggots, come play my game, it's got pic related >what do you mean it has shitty gameplay and no artistic merit? Boobies!
you also cant go out and commit rape so is sexual content okay if its rape there are ways of working out aggression other than killing and harming so by your definition violence in games shouldent actually be allowed. user u got it majorly fucked up porn is literally how you work out sexual frustration without involving other people... Why does violence get a working out free pass but not sexuality?

>"Is it morally acceptable to play a video game just for its sexual content?" Yes >"Games like Dead or Alive and Senran Kagura have a massive fanbase, and the only thing that they have is sexual content." Arguable but I'll give you that it is a big draw, however, you've not really given a reason as to why this is unacceptable, if a game is sold on its sexual content, then people have intentionally bought it for such, and so it is serving its purpose. >"Meanwhile, most good games get ignored only because they don't have sexual content." No they don't, also how is that moral basis for denying people sexual content?
Elijah Watson
>Is it morally acceptable to play a video game just for its sexual content? Only if you don't masturbate.

DOA games play well and SK games occasionally play kinda sorta okay. .

Morally, yes.
If you do this, however, I consider you a brainlet.
