Feature Request - "Censor bar" microtransaction nudity filter

Requesting that GGG create a censor bar and staple it to objectionable content (read: nudity) within the game for people who have purchased this microtransaction.

Personal insults and racism have gotten the last few threads on similar subjects locked without any real discussion happening, so please keep things civil.

"In before" the following red herrings:
1) Why are you bothered by nudity but not violence?
2) Maybe you should play a different game
3) You need to grow up if a nipple offends you
4) LEL PUT MOR NUDITY IN
4) GGG save us from these horrible people posting feedback in the feedback board!

Why should GGG spend time (and as such money) developing something to cover their own artists work?

-1 to wasting developer time on something trivial, if you are offended by nudity this probably isn't the game for you

Dunno, seems like a lot of people seem to demand a nudity filter lately. If GGG makes some extra profit with selling them they can spend that on improving other aspects of the game. Seems like a win-win situation (given there are enough people buying the filter, ofc).

+1 if it also applies to the forums too! I would buy it and then I wouldn't have to read any more objectionable suggestions (like the OP), since they'd all be automatically censored for me.
Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:

Please try to contribute to the discussion rather than attempting to derail it. Thank you.
Your kid won't turn into a drug abusing woman beating thieving hoodlum for seeing some demon-titties in a video game. Take the time you just took to make this thread to talk to him/her instead.

This.

Seems like a double standard to me. If you have a problem with exposed breasts in only a select few places in a game where blood and gore is commonplace, it's time to take a step back and reassess your way of thinking.
PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build!

It's personal preference. I'd prefer to discuss the merits of the idea, what it can bring to the game vs what harm it can do, rather than have my mental state examined by armchair psychologists. If that's not a problem with you, of course.

Please stay on topic, these threads keep getting locked because people can't do the basic courtesy of not derailing.

I did contribute.

I said that I disagree with developers wasting time on such a pointless request, that would require a fairly significant amoutn of time (considering they'd have to change the MODELS for every enemy, the actual graphics, the animations) for such a small change to a game thats filled with horror and violence already.

Just bwecause you feel that is attempting to derail doesn't mean its derailment.

Its clearly directly related.

All it is is that I disagree and I would like GGG to know that this is not something I personally support them wasting time on, and judging from other comments others agree.

You can keep saying its derailment, but its clearly related to the topic.

boof's post is not compltely relevant, but Pizarugi's is relevant. If you are offended by nudity but not violence, and expect changes based on this, it follows basic logic that time should be spent on those who abhor violence but not nudity, removing the violence and making it less violent.


This thread is a waste of GGG's time

The problem is that you define discussion only as support for your idea. What you call "red herrings" are (at least some of them) valid arguments in real discussion.

Merits of your suggestion, in my opinion none. It's wasted resources that could be used to actually improve the game or create more content. Whether you like it or not it is reasonable to ask why do you play a game that offends you? Everything doesn't need to appeal to everyone, it's perfectly fine that there are things some people find offending.
