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!


Regarding item 4 (the second one): This thread actually belongs in the Suggestions forum.

Also, if you want some discussion, why not start with saying what exactly it is that you find so "objectionable" about nudity?

Also, will not happen, never. Betting all my ingame riches in any league that this will not happen, ever. If this happens I will uninstall PoE and never play it again. Not out of spite, only to up the ante. Cause it WILL NOT HAPPEN.


Why? I'm not trying to convince anybody to agree with me. That's the whole point of having it as an optional buy-in filter. The people who aren't bothered by it don't even notice, the people who are get what they want, and GGG makes money.

How is this a bad thing for anyone involved?

No support from me, the devs have better things to do.

It is a poor use of time for a smaller development company, without a giant art department. It is counter to all the hard work the team have put into the atmosphere of the game, and it doesn't make a lot of sense for a game with such a heavy focus on mature themes.

If you can get a few people together and finance it yourself, I have no problem with it.

Black bars are remarkably easy to make, you know. I know GGG is indie and all, but they're not THAT low budget.

On top of that, no self respecting artist would cater to people who can't stand their work and sell them a censored version.

GGG is a business, they're more worried about paying the bills and feeding their families than they are about making whatever artistic statement you claim they are. Charge $5 for a nudity filter, and suddenly they've got more money and more players.
Sorry but it's a waste of time and money to even add this to the game when you can see as bad walking down a beach, see it on TV, see it in a museum.

Artist: Hey game, I drew a black bar, use it!
Game: Did you draw differently for different situations?
Artist: Heck no, just use your graphics engine or whatever it is you have.
Game: OK... and where should I put it?
Artist: On all those horrible nudie bits, of course.
Game: Oh right, gotcha. I totally understand exactly what to do now and will implement it flawlessly.
Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:
