Why is it that porn game authors tend to be insufferable assholes?
I decided to ask the author of this porn game to tone down the insults used by some of his characters.
Literally in the first few minutes of the game they use ableist slurs: "are you a ________"? I'm not saying the usual words, like dumbass or idiot. Nope - it goes way worse than that. They use the r word, and in that same scene they use an even worse word formerly used to depict people with Down syndrome.
After I kindly suggested that these words were offensive and that by removing them he could gain a wider audience, you know what he said?
"Those politically correct people are too sensitive."
Not even an apology. I was about to buy his game but now I'm sadly taking the decision to remove it from my hard drive. And it's a shame because it's a really engaging and well designed game.
The worst part? A boycott wouldn't help much because porn games are a very small niche and and a boycott wouldn't help anyway.
It's TWO WORDS! TWO FUCKING WORDS you have to change in a fucking text file! And you won't even touch them because it's a hassle to you?
Fuck this shit. :blobcatflip:
