That's like asking "Why can't we jerk off tigers in games?". It's not that we can't, it's just that no one has actually done it yet.

Play fallout 1 or 2 if you want to shoot kids. The real question is why you include kids that you can kill these days unless you want to court controversy to sell your game.

No, no its not. There's no real demand for jerking off tigers and unless the game was centered around that what reason would there be to implement that?

If you're in a game that has children, and mostnof the game is you killing other people, you'd have to go out of your way to not implement killing children.

Arguably, yes. Ratings themselves can be counted as a form of censorship, especially if the distributor refuses to stock, or puts further restrictions on games/movies/albums of a certain rating.

>>318191843
It would be censor ship if a developer made a game, and then the publisher made them remove content to fit their views.

The real issue is that developers clearly don't take their own games seriously. If a movie director has a vision, hes going to stick to it, even if hes showing something controversial. Sex scenes, people dying and being mutilated, torture, all manner of shocking and horrific shit is shown on film and no one bats an eye. Video games only have these subjects as taboo because people have collectively started to shy away from them. If those boundaries were to be pushed then the taboo would disappear.

Simple. USA and UK have laws over killing kids in video games. I shit you not. In the West, USA is No.1 buyer of video games, then UK is No.2

Since they're so big, making a game where you can kill children pushes the rating up to adult automatically. So most companies don't because they don't want to lose potential sales due to the new rating.

That's why.

ESRB rates games, and console companies use these ratings to judge whether or not they should be on consoles. As it stands, no AO games are allowed on consoles, and by modern standards, killing children makes a game AO.

In my country it gets censored for prime time TV because you can't show certain ratings before 9:30pm so they cut it down so they can play it in the 8:30 slot. They cut a lot of movies to make the rating lower so they can put them in better time slots. Sometimes it's just a matter of discretion cuts when there's violence so Murphys torture scene in Robocop is heavy cut and is mostly implied violence, or removing the word "fuck" from movies and either leaving a bit of silence or using a soundbite of a less vulgar word. It's pretty jarring to watch when you know what is being cut.
>>
>>318198936
>stop hating what I like

Because people don't want their morals questioned. They don't want to deal with the consequences of an imaginary choice in an imaginary world.

Killing children is obviously seen as very bad, so few games have that to make the player not feel terrible. Not that I agree with this. It's the same with sexual content, especially when it involves minors. That shit happens all the time, but people like to ignore that it happens to not have their views challenged. Even though virtual murder is just as "bad" as virtual rape and whatnot.

>I would like to comment about the ESRB even though I don't know SHIT about the topic

Hi, retard, if you are going to be all anti-censorship, which is good, but present yourself as an ignorant retard, please don't, it make fighting censorship harder.

The ESRB, if anything is a good thing simply because the alternative would have been far, far worse.

The ESRB is actually a game industry created organization. It is NOT governmental. It was created in the hopes of the USA government NOT stepping in and regulating video games with governmental eye, which congress was about to ready to do due to a lot of controversy going on at the time.

Rating systems in themselves are not censorship. Censorship rises with standard censorship through publishing companies or self censorship from the devs, even if self censoring due to fear of for example AO rating. It is not the rating system in it self at fault, but the mentality and thought process of the devs/pubs and their perceived view of what society will think of their work.

Let's look at Fallout 4, in the core game you couldn't kill kids, because Bethesda didn't want you killing kids, it's their game, they do what they want, but then there's mods, that lets you do these things.

Yes, it's censorship. But, as long as censorship is not an ilegal thing, no problem will arise with that.

You guys get important events broadcasted with a 5 minutes delay so they can cut out everything they don't want you to see, so why would they not do this with games?

Also, i have a big problem with this censorchip bullshit, but i have an even bigger problem with them NOT LETTING ME CRAFT AN ARMOR MADE OF LIVING CHILDREN, IF THEY ARE UNVULNERABLE WHY CAN'T I USE THEM AS ARMOR MATERIAL WHY BETHESDA?

This is definitely true, but it doesn't really account for the extremism of the "non normie stuff NOT allowed" movement of current society with this recent hyper politically correct/SJW retardation that has popped up.

In the pass you could account for it in the American christfag puritans influence and religious fervor. But most SJWs are actually anti-religion since they support stuff like gays and being c'ucked in poly relationships.

I would like to know how this hypocritical moral high horse movement came from without religious basis.

ESRB has never rated a game AO because you can kill kids to my knowledge.

The ESRB also doesn't tell companies they have to censor a game, or what they have to do specifically in order to lower the rating. Hell a company could send the game to them 3 times unchanged and get M, M then T depending on who exactly was rating it.

All they do is rate what they are given, 99% of companies that make changes to games do so before they even attempt to send the game to the ESRB the first time just as an effort to save time and money by only having to send it once. i can't even think of a game where companies said they sent it in multiple times aiming for a lower rating than what they got like you see with a lot of movies aiming for PG13 instead of R or something

God, I hope not. Can you point me to the dictionary where the word "censorship" is defined as "information which may be politically incorrect"?

Because as far as I'm aware, censorship is the SUPPRESSION of that material in an official capacity by groups such as governments, media outlets, and other official authorities.

Which was like a year after PS2

>>318219605
It was never illegal to sell. AO games are not illegal. Huge chain stores just don't want to sell them, the same as they don't sell porn. The ESRB only went back and did that rating because of the media coverage of the mod on PC, since it was otherwise dummied out in all versions.

It's like if the ESRB went back and rated each fallout/elderscrolls for it's mods. Also sex in a game does not automatically equal AO considering the number of games with sex in them. Like Witcher, god of war and leisure suit larry. The ESRB was just reacting to soccer moms and trying to deflect anger shooting at them at the time by complying with what the screaming tards wanted.

Well even though your question order further proves your lack of understanding the English language (oh, sorry you AREN'T the same anon).

Anyways, I will work with you but only if you promise to behave.

So, first let us establish that you are talking about a hypothetical situation, correct?

In this hypothetical situation, can you explain why the "devs" are "just not wanting people to kill kids"?
>>
>>318219871
So, to clarify, your stance is that censorship is:

>information which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, politically incorrect or inconvenient

And not

>the suppression of information which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, politically incorrect or inconvenient

Correct? Plus, you still haven't sourced your definition. I can source my definition.

Merriam-Webster
1
a : the institution, system, or practice of censoring
b : the actions or practices of censors; especially : censorial control exercised repressively

Definition of censor, according to Merriam-Webster:
1
: a person who supervises conduct and morals: as
a : an official who examines materials (as publications or films) for objectionable matter
b : an official (as in time of war) who reads communications (as letters) and deletes material considered sensitive or harmful
2
: one of two magistrates of early Rome acting as census takers, assessors, and inspectors of morals and conduct
3
: a hypothetical psychic agency that represses unacceptable notions before they reach consciousness

I don't really have a horse in this race since I know for a fact that you're wrong and most of this censorship hubbub on /v/ is sensationalist garbage, but it's really fun watching you squirm under trying to rationalize your retardation; regardless of whether or not that retardation is intentional or not. I'm banking on a long quote chain with "all me :^)" or "fell for the bait."

>>
>>318220659

Maybe in this hypothetical situation the devs (as in developers) don't want to let people kill kids because they find it morally wrong? On a level separate to killing adults. Not to make a judgement on their morals in this hypothetical (I personally don't mind the concept if we're talking about an open world game where you can murder mostly anyone).

If that were the case, would it be self-censorship? Or if we used another hypothetical situation, if someone producing a dating sim opted not to add the ability to date someone of the opposite sex because they didn't want it in their game, would that be self-censorship?
>>
>>318220696
>Plus, you still haven't sourced your definition. I can source my definition.

You can source your definition (which btw you only just minutes ago looked up for the first time), but you can't figure out the source of my quote.

Just how retarded are you trying to prove yourself to be son?

Tell you what. Being a teacher, I going to give you a pop quiz. If you can pass it then, I will deem you competent enough to re-address the issue.
