Ok, you find superficial things like that make a game more complex or dumbed down, instead of the core gameplay mechanics and engine functionality.  Just a difference in view points I guess.

 

That IS part of the gameplay in an RPG. Especially an open one like FO.

 

If you were to not like Fallout 3 as much because the tone is different, that I could agree with.  But this, no, I just don't get it.  I do not see the dumbing down that you refer to.  A simple action like prostitution doesn't change much.  To me anyway.

But back to the point at hand.  If the game had not been made for consoles, do you believe that Bethesda would have included prostitution and child murder?  And to me, that answer is a resolute no.
