L.A. Noire nudity question

[Gigano]

I much prefer the absurdly tasteless over the inoffensively bland anyway.

I now you might dislike me at this point but I have to say...can I use that as a quote for a later time? Thats gold.

Go right ahead.

I don't dislike you; I dislike discrimination of anything within the spectrum of harmless plurality in any and all forms it might take, and make it a priority to always call it out.

Had my anger been reversed and had I have been a 'different' man myself making a large sweeping statement about 'the other guys' would it have gone down with such passionate calls for my head on a platter?

So yes, most certainly so.

Probably harsher though, as the damage potential of discriminatory speech against minorities is considerably greater than it is against majorities.

B) What is wrong with you? You want to perv on animated 12 year olds?

No one's made the obvious joke that that's why anime is so popular so I'm gonna go ahead and make it.

I guess sometimes I just get so jaded with way society seems to be right now that it seeps in and I make statements like that.

Society hasn't got to the point where a naked 12 year old in your bed is ever going to be portrayed positively in the media, straight or gay. It's a gritty crime game, you can't have gritty crime without having some level of horror.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Nothing is left to the imagination, but hey, they're dead. So it's only sexual if you're into dead people.

 

[Pearwood]

Japan has. Zing!

Nicely done.

 

[Leg End]

Well other then those previously mentioned naked victims, there was

Spoiler

That 15 (?) year old girl in that guys apartment later on in the game that was naked in the bed, but she did have a sheet over her.

^ Late game spoiler but not essential to the plot.

Spoiler

She was actually only 13.

no no your both wrong

she was almost 13...

I had to do this scene twice because my game froze

Well, I'm getting LA Noir now.

I am now getting it for teh lulz factor. Though, I honestly wonder how well Team Bondi handled it in game.

I'm going to take it your not being sarcastic and just...let this off my chest.

Sometimes you straight guys just...baffle me....really...even the context of that scene.

'Almost 13'...dear god. >_<

Thats horrible.

I'm failing to see what that has to do with "straight guys"...

I'm pondering like an actual detective and I'm still wondering how that equates to that. :L

I'm going to take it your not being sarcastic and just...let this off my chest. (forgive me for being crass but I've been holding this in for a while now)

Sometimes you straight guys just...baffle me....really...even the context of that scene.

'Almost 13'...dear god. >_<

Thats horrible.

Well, she's dead, its not like she's going to care if someone gawks at her.

A) She isn't dead.
B) What is wrong with you? You want to perv on animated 12 year olds?

A) It is understandable how he was led to believe she was dead, considering the thread and all.
B) Possibly. I see no issue here. Problem Officer? XD(Just had to say it, it's now a part of my response queue)

I'm sorry I'm sorry...ugh I just...I wont get into it I don't want to cause a storm on the thread. Perhaps I'll save my musings for separate thread someday.

I mean...I guess my brain just works differently or something...perhaps I'm weird...I just find the prospect of a 12 year old girl found dead in someones 'bed' in a video game to be more horrifying and just... more wretched than anything Silent Hill ever did...just...

...it makes my skin crawl. >_< (and no I'm not a prude)

I'm sorry i'll stop now.

I'm reasonably sure everyone on earth finds something like that horrible. Whether or not they're "straight."

If you were concerned about making a storm in the thread, you probably should be a bit more guarded about your personal, unfounded prejudices. Shouldn't it have been enough just to say, "Wow, that's an awful thing. Why did they put that in a game?" Nope. You had to insinuate it's, what, a "straight guy" thing? Or that perhaps the crime being portrayed is exclusive to straight guys? I'm not really sure.

And as for the "gawker" up there, for all I know, he's 13 and doesn't realize that child porn is still child porn even if the viewer is a child, too. There's no reason to jump immediately to the "perv" label when it could just be a child who is ignorant of the law, or something. Perhaps try not to be so quick to judge...

Pretty much. :L

Still don't get the straight jab. :L

He is 15. It is not Cheese Pizza. The law has no issue with someone getting the game for X purpose.

[Alucard788]

Ya know it's weird...generally I have no issues with nudity in games...really I don't...I dunno why the other aspect made me fly off the handle.

 

[Vault boy Eddie]

So all of ya'll missed the woman jumping rope naked?

Well, Rockstar Games beat (heh) everyone to that in the GTA DLC.

 

[rutger5000]

wait what? dead naked chicks A-OK, but living naked chicks awful and spawn of Satan?

Shrugs, they are Americans, what did you expect. (I'm not bashing Americans here, I love you guys, but you are very childish about anything sex related)
