Putting an age on anything is a bit nonsense imo cause Nintendo can just make her age be 18 when they localize without it affecting the character model or anything and bam problem "solved." Its like that dragon chick from FE:A that looks like shes 10 but the reason its "okay" for her to get married and have kids is cause she is 1000 "years old"

So what I m trying to say is that if the girl looks toooo young that cant be gotten away with that "she is 18" trick, then sure but if she can, then nope.. Even then it is a slippery slope cause she could be short and still be 18 so maybe just leave it up to the developers choice. And since it should be entirely optional, there is no reason for it to affect ur game experience

XCX has the advantage of making the 13 year old's face look quite essh so I doubt she will be turning anyone on

Could you link a pic please?

Unlikely. As Nintendo did with Bravely Default, they'll change ages and alter costumes.

Hmm that's true, they could go that route as well

People who would argue for games being considered art in one breath can't seriously come argue for censorship on their other breath. If a person feels sexually aroused by the depiction of a fictional representation of a minor, that's on them, not on the creator of the art piece. Also, what is the argument that's being presented exactly to support this censorship? Is it because it puts anyone in danger? Do those people think it turns a non pedophile into a pedophile? What exactly is the claim here? The question also makes certain assumptions that seem totally inapropriate, like there being a measurable standard of what's sexy or sensual. Sensuality, like beauty, is pretty much in the eye of the beholde. So what person A finds sexy i might find totally dull. So who is the arbitror of what's sexy exactly?

On a side note, if any person has sexual attraction to minors, i think it would be much better for this person to have an escape from reality to satisfy their urges on a fantasy set than going out to the world and do some really bad shit.

Everyone has some type of fantasies that should remain that, so thank goodness for all kinds of porn and fanfictions. That's made the world a much better place

It should be up to the devs and what they're trying to achieve in their game. It really makes no difference because the dev can simply just change the character's age without changing anything else about the character.

Yeah, idk at least in this image she looks like girls from my high school. Though of course they dress a bit more appropriately... most of the time anyway

If the Simpson's movie can show Bart's penis I don't see why a video game can't show a teenager in a bikini.

Age of Sexualisation?? Lol let them do what they want.
While the age of consent here is 18 that doesnt stop a 15 year old for dressing to look sexy, why should a game be any different. Buy what you want, an age in a video game doesnt really mean much anyway. How old they look is basically how old they are anyway.
