    Check this video out and skip towards the end

     

    skip towards then end they basically strip down a cartoon child to her underwear, im trying to find out where i can report such things in the UK as I think its promoting child exploitation.. hopefully will get it banned..

    At what point was a child exploited, thats what I dont understand. 

    well having this kind of thing in game makes people think its ok and totally normal, i said promoting as well by the way not that it is chil exploitation..

     

    So you cant see an issue with a game allowing people to strip children down to their underwear ?

     

    its just prue wrong, i have no issues with the adult female characters and so on I am 100% fine with that.. but bringing children characters into the game and donig the same thing with them is 100% wrong and should be banned.

    First, all the Avatars in the game are artificial, though self aware, beings. The Sentinel class is designed to look deceivingly innocent, while being a high DPS ranged threat. Besides, children just do not have bodies like that. In the game, they are the shortest class, but their lower bodies are just as exaggerated in their curviness as all the other characters and they clearly have breasts, though they are closer to being average sized breasts, rather than the overly-exagerated breast size of the other toons. Rather than an hourglass figure, they have a spoon shaped figure.

    To me, they are a bit less "creepy" than the Elin in TERA. The Elin have a similar figure, but are pretty flat chested. The Sentinels in SB also don't utilize child like voices, which also makes them less "creepy". To this day people still argue over the "pedo nature" of the Elin in that game's chat, but the game is still around and no action has been taken.

    Because the US developers knew that some people would still insist they were children, they modified the skins for the US/EU release so that they can never be truly nude and their body textures make their cybernetic form completely obvious.

    I'd suggest that some people are seeing what they want to see when they start claiming the game depicts exploitation of children.

    You don't seem to know anything about the actual game. There are no male avatars in the game and there are no breast sliders. There are sometimes nude female avatars and they all have bodies with a high degree of curviness.

    Society tries really hard to make us all feel awkward and uncomfortable with nudity and sexuality, when they are really natural, positive aspects of being human. At the same time, violence is glorified to extreme levels, even though violence is at best a neccassary evil when it comes to self defence of person, family or nation and at worst an expression of pure evil made manifest.

    The game may be goofy and sophomoric, but IMO it's good to see the game break through the barrier that has thus far held that nudity and sensuality in games should remain taboo. Hopefully someday it will unexceptional in games and media. Our cultural attitudes towards sex, sensuality and nudity are not at all healthy and lead to a lot of problems that just wouldn't exist otherwise.

    Fine but why make ALL the  characters female??? Why not show dudes with their cojones hanging out?

    Because if many gamers aren't ready for breasts, even more aren't ready to see that. The game has a target audience and the niches they appeal to are the foundation for the business model. In a society as sexually repressed as ours, one step at a time. :)

    I'm fine with mature adult content, but really am not fine with sexual discrimination, selling all the women full on skanky clothes in a MMO.

    Heck, just don't even wear clothes anymore or watch some hentai.

     

    How to be naked without being naked! LOGIC.

    There is nothing adult about the game, and nothing mature about it either.

    This game is aimed squarely at the younger audience who would and do get off on low polygon softcore porn.  Ok theres the pedo crowd too despite they de-nudified the preteen character like they had to do with tera (what the hell is going on over there in korea btw??)

    I actually think the game would be a much better game if the focus was taken off nudity somewhat, at its root though its the same quest grinder game weve played for ages...just with heavy auto pathing and NPC's just call you when your done with your quest...so theres little back and forth, which imo is a massive improvement since back and forth between NPC's and mob fields gets so very old...

     

    Anyway...play this game if you LOVE boob jiggle physics, skimpy outfits on the all female characters, and cash shop full frontal nudity...and...sigh...really young preteen girls i guess...even if they coverd them up a bit

     

    This is a game that seems to be 100% built around anime-ish softcore porn, all the quest texts are chalked full of innuendos, just about every aspect revolves around boobs.  Even the puzzle picture rewards where you unlock pice by piece a porno photo of some ingame character or characters...its 100% the focus of the game.  It gets really old really fast since its always in your face reminding you why you should be playing, and its not for the game mechanics.

     

    Anyway..i wish they would stop calling the game adult or mature, its the exact opposite. Certainly a LOT of gamers are enjoying the hell out of the game, from what i saw...which speaks louder than my opinion on whats going on in game there.

    They run different ads at different times. So you will randomly see a certain companies ad for a day or two then another ad another day. Also different pages on the website yield different ads. Kind of like how sometimes an ad for Sevencore comes up even though that game got shut down, I'm sure it's just because gpotato hadn't given them a new one to run that day.

    Not adult at all, very 'teenish' in terms of selling 100% off sex appeal to teenagers who don't have access to pornography. Guess though when you have no gameplay its the only way to get people to play (least for 5 minutes before something else happens)

     

    Then again, maybe it has good gameplay? I'll never find out, its one oft hose few games that has no decency and I don't feel deserves my attention or anyone elses. If your going for 95% of your appeal being sex appeal, then damn it, make it a kind of porno game, don't tease it just throw it all up front and save us the trouble.

    The game is a total piece of trash anyway, the girls aren't that good looking which is its main selling point, they look like mutant freaks with racks like that on those tiny bodies. They also look like they are coated in plasic. Gameplay wise.. The game is shit-tier, its another wow clone that is no where as good as vanallia wow was, and its pretty hard to fail that badly.

    Being a pessimist is a win-win pattern of thinking. If you're a pessimist (I'll admit that I am!) you're either:

    A. Proven right (if something bad happens)

    or

    B. Pleasantly surprised (if something good happens)

    Either way, you can't lose! Try it out sometime!

    Tenns lack access to porn? if they have a pc they got all the access to porn they need, its not like its hidden or anything. Second a kid touches a pc they lose any innocense they had in my eyes, since they are going to find porn whether they are looking for it or not. Also gameplay wise, as I said its shit-tier, so your  not missing a damn thing by not bothering with it.

    Apparently the promo is still running as i just seen it on the home page after refreshing. 
  • simpliussimplius Member UncommonPosts: 1,134

    its an mmo for ADULTS

    if you are adult, you can play

    if not, the question becomes irrelevant

    It's too childish.
  • SasamiSasami Member Posts: 326
    Nope, in fact whole fap value is pretty low. After you done fapping all you have left is very poor game. If it was more adult I might have played it more.
  • erictlewiserictlewis Member UncommonPosts: 3,022

    Well the ads are back again. lol I guess mmorpg does not care what kind of stuff gets advertised.  All morning its one add after another, inlucing the ones made to look like a certain type of magazie.

    i also think it is only natural for teenagers to watch porn. adults watching porn is just lame. i started watching at 11 and stopped at 17, it was too lame to look at those anymore(on top of that i had access to lots of sex, who needs porn?) . don't know why people keep saying that this game is for teenagers who can't find porn, this kind of comment is just stupidity.

    Boobs are LIFE, Boobs are LOVE, Boobs are JUSTICE, Boobs are mankind's HOPES and DREAMS. People who complain about boobs have lost their humanity.
