![]() Incest is normal way for families to "indulge feelings of mutual affection" Prostitution is the main industry of Forgotten Realms, "sex workers" are everywhere and there are about 100 different names for different kinds of prostitutes. "Festhalls" (brothels) are in every small village and visiting them is normal way to spend evening. In FR as created by Ed:īi-sexuality is normal (and yes, this means the men as well as the women) Lack of connection in romance/sex scene, on the other hand, works against it.Ībout this, The current Forgotten Realms material is highly sanitized from the original Ed Greenwood`s vision https:/ / / wiki/ Ed_Greenwood (One of the original creators of the FR setting). ![]() It's a bit like I had a really tough time sitting through "No Country for Old Men", while John Wicks or Warhammer games dont affect me (though I did find JW3 to be too much). ![]() With violence lack of connection helps - afterall slaughtering on mass is not a such fun and nice thing to do (or so I am told). Though, at least in Witcher3, sex scenes are at least part of a coherent romance arc, giving them more right to be. Witcher2 already doesn't hold up well in that regard, and I imagine, watching polygons rubbing in Witcher3 will be just as awkward in couple years time. Where something like violent Warden's initiation in DA:O held narrative and character importance, DA sex-scenes in underwear (because after ME we don't even have balls for that), backed by shallow romance mechanics were quite laughtable. I don't know if it would be my thing, but why not.Īs it is however, romances in RPG feel to me gratuitous and at best unnecessary. If one wants to make a detailed game about relationships and sex, then sure. DnD origin is a wargame afterall, not datesim. But that's where most systemic focus is on. If violence in games were all about watching cutscenes of digital creatures ripping each other heads off, that would be gratuitous and boring. The thing about nudity and sexuality is, that it is rarely (if ever?) implimented in an interesting way. Sex is a major part of life: and that's how I like my RPGs to be, a lifelike adventure that I can relate to, in all ways.ĭA:O had a good amount of sexual material IMO.
