flight simulators and other war games (Early CODs not the modern warfare and such ) don’t promote negative values in society and sexism . Portraying women as mere sexual objects is not very healthy to teenagers . GTA 5 had all kinds of applying torture , sexual gratification , promoting banditry.
You’re sounding like a 90’s christian parent worried that video games are going to turn their kids violent.
Which reminded me, I should have mentioned this earlier, but you used the word “depraved” in the first post; I am not comfortable with you using that christofacist language.
lol. Well that’s maybe the cultural difference between a westerner and a person from South Asia. We two have different perspectives of depravity and right and wrong. btw I am not a Christian .
Well, you do sound like one. Condemning a piece of media for its “depravity” sounds like it came straight out of a Republican’s playbook. As for perspective, I mean, if it means “things with a sexual tone that I consider morally bad”, then it is a problem regardless of culture.
Edit: maybe I am being too exclusionary, all religious fundamentalism is bad, not just christian.
either you are promoting the moral depravity in society
Holy shit, you’re literally talking like a conservative, let’s drop the religion talk completely and just call this what it is: conservatism. And wth is that list? Am I supposed to agree that games like The Witcher, DDLC, Resident Evil and L4D should be banned for “depravity”? You’re literally proving my point.
I don’t hate China like your average westerner, there are many things there that I like, the unfortunate conservatism in the government is not one of them.
It mimics real life really well, then, I don’t see the problem.
I guess we normal people don’t go usually out and kill people for gangs and mobs.
Most normal people don’t fly airplanes either, but that’s not a requirement for Flight Simulator to mimic real life well too.

https://www.gamerbraves.com/china-has-banned-more-than-60-games-from-live-streaming/ Not really its either you are promoting the moral depravity in society or thinks anything that republicans say against video games is bad. And i don’t live in Republican , democrat dilemma .

In fact, China is a great example of why that talk about “depravity” is nothing more than another tool for oppression: https://www.npr.org/2021/09/02/1033687586/china-ban-effeminate-men-tv-official-morality

What are gamergater takes?
Games are the newest bugaboo in a long line of media 'boos. Movies, tv shows, books (really). Its extremely tiring to see this same pattern play out
https://www.gamerbraves.com/china-has-banned-more-than-60-games-from-live-streaming/ I don’t know about media boos but I approve of what china has done.
Yea why aren’t there more video games about following the speed limit in your 10 year old car then filling out spreadsheets for 8 hours.
Where the fuck did all these boomer ass takes come from.
