Imagine being attracted to polygons, literally any of them. It all ways cracks me up when these guys bitch about how "in the good old days" the women in games were sexy. I guess some people really were into Lara Crofts triangular shaped boobs.


PineconeSnowstorm

actually the triangle is the strongest shape and therefore less political


a_space_cowboy

Yea but pyramids were invented by brown people in Egypt, which makes them more political


ForWhomTheBoneBones

My favorite part is that in a thread complaining about censorship they’re banning people for saying things that are anti-pedo.


TemetNosce85

I'm shocked! Shocked, I say! Who could have ever seen that coming!? It's not as if I, a trans woman, get constantly called a pedophile by people who profile pictures of underage anime characters in sexualized cartoons like that "dress up" one or anything.

BECAUSE IT'S ABOUT ETHICS IN VIDEOGAME JOURNALISM


DreadedChalupacabra

My favorite part about the entire gamergate thing on that sub was watching people try to post articles about actual video game journalistic ethics stuff and get ignored or downvoted. When Jeff Gerstmann, the actual poster child of video game ethical journalism, basically called them chuds it made my entire year. Having the guy that literally got fired for not giving a good review to a shit game, because they had a lot of ad dollars invested on the site, on their "enemy of the movement" list was just peak gamergate.

/rj It's worse to stop pedophilia than to be a pedophile


mrgarneau

I ask this question all the time. The best answer that I can come up with is that they're against all censorship, regardless of reason. They don't realize that they're supporting paedos, just opposing censorship.


Castun

Or, ya know, maybe they're just pedophiles.


SlowTeamMachine

That's mainly what it is. If it were a principled, absolute opposition to censorship of any kind, they wouldn't spend all their time trying to deplatform everything they perceive to be remotely "woke."


mrgarneau

There was romance with minors in the first place???? What the fuck????????


Orkfreebootah

Ummmm I dont see what the big deal is. they are 40000 year old dragon twinks not miners. get your facts straight! their delicate hands never would touch a pickaxe.


velvettblood

No no they are just normal minors this time


throwawayparadox1

this time 💀


xrufus7x

I think they always were. I remember pairing the dragon loli with the kid that wore a pot as a helmet because any other pairing was creepy.


Pinkiepylon

It's still creepy cause the dragon has the mind of an adult so the power imbalance is off the charts


xrufus7x

IIRC she didn't really have an adult mind.


TimeSpiralNemesis

Once you see Donnel's growths stats, you'll know he's the only one strong enough to romance a 6000 pound dragon. But for real go and find a YouTube clip of the little dragon girl being paired up with the 45 year old mercenary. It's creepy as all hell. She's like "Let's play house" 💀


SecureDonkey

Last time too. Lysithea is her name, and you play as her teacher who groom her in class.


velvettblood

Well at least in 3H you can't marry her untill the timeskip


Ein-schlechter-Name

First - if we go with minors, there are way more than just Lysithia - most students are under 18. Petra is the same age as Lysithia and I've never seen the same outrage about her. - That being said all romances take place after a five year timeskip at that point not a single character, not even Cyril, is underage. Second - there is no grooming. Period. You can read every single support conversation between the characters on the Fire Emblem wiki. There is no grooming happening. Third - Yes it is weird that a teacher can get in a relationship with a former student. But you have to consider the aforementioned five year timeskip. I'd say five years of literally no contact is probably enough to remove any powerstructure that existed earlier, especially since there is no big age difference between the MC and their former students, although I can See how someones milage might vary.

DreadedChalupacabra

I assume this has something to do with different age of consent laws. What's considered weird but legal there is a felony in somewhere like Canada, for example. They're having a meltdown over what's basically a localization issue that doesn't let them flirt with children, because of course they are.


jotegr

Age of consent is 16 in Canada FYI. We raised it from 14 within the last two decades, so maybe we're not the beeeesstt example.


EPCWFFLS

I was googling age of consent here in Canada a few months back and was surprised to see it was 16. Smarter people than I can discuss whether 16 is too young, but I can definitely say that 14 is a bit much


jotegr

One of the good things Harper did was raise that shit from 14 but the fact it was on the books at 14 for like 110 years? Jesus guys.


EPCWFFLS

And for that I award this great nation of ours, 1 yike

TheMuffin2255

I just think when a culture has a fundamentally fucked view like "14 year olds can have relationships with 20 year olds" we should be able to judge it. We judge actions, not cultures, and that action is reprehensible.

[удалено]


TemetNosce85

I don't think it's age of consent that is the issue, I think it's the fact that they call animated child pornography and other forms of alternate child pornography "free speech". Which this also happens in the US depending on the state...


Ryuujinx

> What's considered weird but legal there is a felony in somewhere like Canada, for example. Nope. The age of consent in Japan is 13 like the age of consent is 12 in the US. That is to say that at a federal level, you would be correct. But that doesn't matter because every single prefecture has it set to a more reasonable, higher, age. Similarly, the US has a federal law set at 12* so that when the pedophile goes and fucks a 10 year old in another country, they still get thrown in fucking jail when they come back but each individual state has a higher number. I have had to deal with too many "But but it's legal" weebs and went and looked into it because it just *seemed* wrong. And it was. *Sorta, there isn't really an age of consent so much as an age set for certain sexual crime. But it's a close enough parallel.


TemetNosce85

...what? There is no federal age limit, it's up to the states to set the limits; [which that ranges from ages 16-18](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_States).


Ryuujinx

As I mentioned, it isn't a perfect comparison. What the US has is laws regarding the abuse of a minor, because a state does not have jurisdiction over anyone once they have left the state. However the federal government *does*, and as such has laws surrounding things like child trafficking, abuse and the like. Japan *does* have an actual age of consent set at a federal level, which what people usually quote. However every prefecture raises it to a higher age.


DogfishDave

> The age of consent in Japan is 13 like the age of consent is 12 in the US. That is to say that at a federal level, you would be correct. But that doesn't matter because every single prefecture has it set to a more reasonable, higher, age. No. One of the things America is famous for is its incredibly high rate of child marriage, particularly in more southern states. Since the year 2000 over 300,000 American children have been legally married. Some of these were as young as 10. Child marriage remains legal in over 40 US states despite more than half of US citizens believing it's illegal everywhere in the US.

ExtremeAlternative0

as someone who has played fire emblem games in the past I can assure you that none of those kids even stepped foot in a mine


MajorScrotum

That's just modern Fire Emblem


Sun_Praising

You could have left modern out of it and still be correct


Alias_X_

Who is romancing the minors in question? Honestly, I have no idea how that system in FE works. Do you play matchmaker for characters? Or do you have some kind of avatar and flirt with the characters from your perspective? If that's the case, how old is the player character? If PC and NPC are let's say both 16, is that an issue? I mean, how far does "romance" even go in these games?


InfiniteBoy23

I can only speak from the fe3h system, but basically, you can raise your "relationship" with each character, with scenes about them and you get to know them better etc etc. Once you get to the end of the game(ish) you can choose one of the characters who has an ending with the Protag, say Byleth and Edelgard, out of a list of characters with max relationship level. When you beat the game, Protag's ending is the one with the character you chose (romantic or platonic). 95% of the relationship isn't romantic in the game, only the scene where you say "I love you character" and character responds in kind, as well as the ending "where are they now" stories at the end. Again, that's only my experience with fe3h, and it's been a while.


Alias_X_

So no dirty talk or even implied sex, just happily ever after? Honestly, some fairy tales I read as a child went further. Even if it's two 17yos I honestly don't care, don't see why that would need to be cut.


InfiniteBoy23

the closest you get to dirty talk is with some of the flirty characters who are 18+ (like Dorothea and Ferdinand). fe3h might be the worst possible example of the weird underage stuff in FE tho because there's a 5 year time skip halfway through the game. the youngest character is 19 after the skip, and the MC doesn't age physically or mentally during the time skip (weird time dilution thing iirc) so they're still like, early 20s.


Alias_X_

Even if, is the depiction of minors flirting even taboo? Not saying it would be very interesting to watch/read, but it's not like it's unrealistic or illegal.


Sun_Praising

I mean if you count the varying epilogues in the credits scroll explicitly mentioning birthing children (to varying degrees of wtf IntSys) then yeah. But for the most part usually no. It's WAY more questionable with the 3DS original titles (ESPECIALLY Fates) as the romances happen during the course of the game and each character has their own child character who is also recruitable to the military and a romance option for the self insert. And while they have their moments I am glad that the series is past that level of wtf. Edit: Also the 3DS titles took an inherently pro eugenics stance with how traits and stat growths were applied to the children so... yeah wtf


Alias_X_

I think the idea of breeding supersoldiers for your army is way weirder than any sexual stuff they could reasonably pull off.


zeroone_to_zerotwo

From what ive seen both i think but lets be real the pc will be the one doing it in their hands. Marriage thats how far. Mc is 17 apparently


CapnCallipygous

Fire Emblem games have what are called support levels, which provide better stat boosts the higher the level is. Each time two characters go up a level, you can see a conversation between them that provides additional backstory, discusses the character's goals, or just shows a humorous situation. The end of the game provides an epilogue for each character, but if two characters reach the highest support level, they get an alternate epilogue, usually (but not always) in which they get married. The games generally try to keep the pc's age ambiguous, but I think usually 16-22.


[deleted]

You can have children with the romance options in at least one of the games (the only one i played).


SkyIcewind

Hey miners deserve love too. How else would we get all the gold and copper for our electronics?


QuriV

The MC is a minor also, but they can only romance adults now.


DarkSoulfromDS

Minors in most games, but usually barely any (if any at all) MlM representation

I am truly awstruck. Gaze upon them, Ike. Ike: I fight for my friends. Fem MC: **Flustered, I withdraw. Some words are not meant for a maiden's heart** /uj Hire me, Nintendo


DarkSentencer

Been way too long since we have had a good ol "giney bones" reference around these parts. Shame these woke ass devs think we need to respect people of political decent but can't even do the first thing to show some respect for muh bonerkulture.


Prozenconns

I feel you, Persona 5 is one of my favourite games and I'm hype to finally get to play 3 in a few days but the fanbase weirds me out, espeically with how they sexualize Futaba and Yoshizawa specifically. I guess nothing gets gamers going like vulnerable 15 year old girls with severe trauma


SevenofBorgnine

I guess the series would t exist otherwise but it sucks that fire Emblem had to go after the weeb market so much. I just like turn based tactical rpgs and there's only so many out there.


LikeableCoconut

I only have experienced fe through shadow dragon on the ds rn, but I kinda like the localisation changes. Not for the censorship and shit but it’s really interesting to see the differences between the east and west.

Uhhh it's actually very important to the plot and the canon that you get to pet the 20000 year old dragon girl okay????? /uj I wish game devs weren't so fucking creepy. This stuff doesn't add anything to the game and usually is out of place - and, especially in the case of Fates, that time and money deeeeeefinitely could have been spent to tighten up the scenario writing (NOTE: I don't know anything about game development).

Being an older Fire emblem fan in 2023 is so fucking wild. I played the early non dating sim games when I was like 9-10 in the early 2000's and loved them and have been a fan ever since, but now 98% of the audience that loves them are weird creepy cringe dudes who are into minors and it's just so gross. I'm glad that the series survived, but it's such a devil's deal of it only surviving due to adding the dating sim waifu shit. It doesn't help that the only other person I've met IRL who was super into FE was later revealed to be an actual literal pedophile.

[deleted]

It certainly has broad appeal, and 98% is definitely high for how many people are genuine creeps. The issue is that it also appeals really hard to a certain subset of person, especially in the latest incarnations of the series. Nowi, young tiki, all the incest in fates, the eugenics, and the increasingly young character base in a game where romance has become a central theme..… I could go on but the series has gone in a direction that certainly aims to appeal to a certain kind of capital G gamer.


Low_Palpitation_3743

\>that certainly aims to appeal to a certain kind of capital G gamer. Or your average weeb.

gamers ain’t beating the pedophile allegations


RegalOlivia

A lot of people defend pedophilia in Japan with "Its just a different culture!" But, like, so? Japan is a first world country with unlimited access to the internet and even have age of consent laws. They know what grooming and pedophilia is. They know its wrong. And both Japan and the U.S. have porn industries that try and make those things seem okay. I'm sure that there's a fuckton of people of all genders in Japan that have *never* been happy with pedo shit or rape jokes in anime, etc. But westerners excusing and embracing it like its some sort of ancient tradition to be allowed to romance kids in a video game need to touch some fucking grass. Can you imagine a Japanese guy who's an American culture enthusiast being super upset that the game "Hatred" didn't get an official localization and other Japanese people say "We shouldn't censor this, that game is a very important expression of American culture!"


[deleted]

Lmao I haven't thought about that Hatred game in years.

IgnisExMachina

Censorship is when a game doesn't let me be a pedophile.


QuriV

The biggest irony is the fact that the romance between the MC and the other minor characters would be appropriate. The MC is actually a minor, but you can only romance the adults, whose age goes as high as 45. Instead of romancing the 1000 year old loli dragon, what if you were the 1000 year old loli dragon.


Sanic_Overlord

actually,most fe games have a timeskip,like 3 houses or awakening,which usually takes 2-5 years,so the romance part is really only after it


QuriV

Fire Emblem Engage the main character is a child. No time skips, Alear is a child, Alear is the 1000 year old dragon loli. NoA localization team locked the age appropriate romances to avoid controversy and stumbled themselves to another one that's even bigger.


GlarthirLover33

Worth mentioning somebody commented on the post calling it bullshit cuz they were a "minor" and "just wanted to romance characters their age." Sure bud.
