So, Why is that a lot of people are so easily offended by sexuality in video games? and not by violence? I really want to understand different opinions. IMHO is really cool to see  characters being sexual or even the fan service. If the game is not just about sex, but there's some sexuality, why is that a bad thing?

Well OP topic is too general, if the question is more on smaller aspect  ( example ): " why Gay in Video games is bla bla2, or games with Topples female is bla bla, why sex  intercourse sex in video games is bla bla, " Then It will be easy for me to answer.

The answer is different from one to another, not all sex is bad it related on for whom the games sell for, and where the games sells for, and how much content, how is the sex content  inside the game. and also what kind of sex?

Because they are GAMES. Why the hell do games need to incorporate sex in the first place?

Does anyone ever complain that there's too much violence and not enough sex in Clue, Risk and Battleship?

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

looks like some people are taking this the wrong way, I'm not talking about a porn scene (if that's the case, it should be with a reason) Bayonetta, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, etc. that kind of sexuality. If that's the developer's vision, of course, and not just because. "Because they are GAMES. Why the hell do games need to incorporate sex in the first place?"  you can say the same about music, books and movies.

Because there are a bajillion different developers out there, and they all have different visions for their games.

Put it this way, You're more likely to see a Naked body then one with its head blown off.
Just an astute observation there.

sexuality = not just intercourse, any game that has some kind of sexuality. From Bayonetta to GTA

Well if that's what you are saying... It's own females fault that there's not enough sex in games (although not all)

http://www.negativeworld.org/feature/11720/female-gamers-speak-about-the-bayonetta-franchise-part-1-of-2#.VOvw1S4Ua70

Summary of the article: Some females get insulted over Bayonetta's over sexiness while most don't.

Games tend to mirror the real world with fantasy or scifi added into it. It's only natural that sex, nudity, and sexuality be added into games at some point especially since the majority of the people who play video games are adults. 

 

Edit. this is more directed at NightDragon83 than you, mornelithe.
