» Tue Oct 18, 2011 3:23 am What's the point of not allowing players to kill fictive children when we know we'll never do such a thing in real life? Gaming isn't about doing bad stuff in the real world. Besides, Bethesda gaming allows prostitution, drugs, and other "taboo" stuff from the society like interracial six (mostly a fandom thing) and cannibalism. Killing those virtual kids in a video game won't affect my morality in real life. I'd rather not having them at all or have a toggle in the options to make them disappear from the game if they're not related to the quests of any sort.
Non of those things are really considered taboo, but nonetheless i do agree with you, not that im a maniac killer, but killing children in a fictional world isnt really that big of a deal, i would like all NPC's, wether children or not, to be able to be killed.
Stalking someone for hours and going for the kill shot all to realise that the child that woke up the victim cant be laid to rest so you can finish your business is really off-putting in my mind.
Other than that its not really a big deal if there isnt TOO many NPC's that can't be killed.
