I have no problems with it. In some games it makes the game more enjoyable, in some it does the opposite.

Nudity/sexual content is nice when it is appropriate and fits into the general setting. I think it would be nice however if those things didn't look like they are made for the male audience so much. When you see nudity in a game, in 95% cases it's a woman, and in 5% it is a man without a ^&*!. I remember one GTA expansion where there is some criminal boss giving you mission instructions and he is fully nude (and not erect), and holy crap the amount of immature BS that scene has spawned.
The Witcher has always had a very mature approach to sexual themes, and doesn't shy away from showing how women could be treated in a fantasy medieval-like setting. It is actually the absence, or childish approach to these themes that make most of the other fantasy RPG's feel like fairy tales that think they are dark when they have some violence in them.
On the other hand, I do not like games that are going too far with sexual objectification. Like, some games really make you feel like they are made just to be fap material. So... yeah, those are pretty fail imo.
Violence/criminal activity? Well, that is pretty much a standard in gaming now. I definitely do not feel any sort of negative reaction towards most forms of virtual violence.

#150- What do you think about adult content in video games? What do you think about nudity in games (or at least strong sexual themes), like the Witcher, Grand Theft Auto, Mass Effect, etc. What do you think about very graphic violence, violence against innocent people, simulating criminal activity?
I don't mind it lol; no really though, I don't care that much. I mean yes, the jiggle physics in fighting games can get annoying but oh well. I loved GTA and I admit I used a gameshark to unlock Hot Coffee, but as that makes the game freeze right after, I turned it off fairly quickly.

Erm, it's tacky most of the time. I don't think it's usually very necessary and adds very little to the actual game. That's when I don't like it. Also pixel porn is just
weird
to me.

I'd honestly prefer there being more female nudity in games than boob-plate. Equally sexist, but at least somewhat accurate.
But yeah as long as the game has an appropriate rating I'm fine with it. I may not play it unless the rest of the game is very good, or if it fits in very well, but I don't really mind that it exists.

Honestly, if you don't like it don't play it. I think mature content in games is perfectly fine as long as it doesn't feel forced. Nudity and violence fits perfectly into The Witcher for example, but there are games where it just feels awkward.

males in nature like to see racks and other parts.
if a game cater to those needs, along with good gameplay, it will make better sales than some games.
take ff7 for example. when i was a baby boy, i liked tifa. :l

Out of curiosity, for people who have answered that they enjoy female nudity specifically, would you be bothered if there was, in response to the growing female gamer demographic, a sharp rise in male nudity/sexuality in your games. Like if they started making a lot of shirtless male armor, or conversations with male NPC's got very explicit when you were playing as a female character. Not the avoidable stuff, like in Mass Effect, where you just turn them down and no one bothers you afterwards, but as part of the story.
(BTW- this is just an academic debate for me- I have zero problem with adult content in games, be it female or male, as long as it isn't distracting from the plot and story. I'm just curious what other people think.)
I personally am more off-put by playing a game where you perform cruel and/or evil actions than ones where there is nudity. I can't play the "bad guy" in terms of games where there is a morality scale. Most of these are not overly offensive, usually because it's glossed over or presented in a more comedic or representative fashion, but I just don't enjoy them. But when I was playing SWTOR, I was at times uncomfortable with the dark side choice even being presented as an option- particularly in regards to torture, because the game fully voices and displays the victim reaction to this. As these games get more and more realistic, graphic and dramatic, I'm seeing gaming heading towards a place where I'm going to be really uncomfortable with the level of detail in which these kinds of actions are displayed, and how people will still find it "funny" to make the choice in the game to do that. I know it's not real, but I find some of it disturbing to even enjoy in an abstract sense.
Personally, I am sure that there will be plenty of games where you can play a hero type, or a grey character whose actions wouldn't head that far down that path, but I do worry about the mentality of people who are looking for more and more realistic suffering responses to these kinds of scenarios, and designing the games to provide them.

Wouldn't really care.

I honestly wouldn't care if there ended up with more man junk to match the woman junk lol; but yeah, as long as it makes sense in the context of the game, go for it.
