Comment Of course it's that way, it's the point of gaming (Score 1) 693
I weigh 135 pounds. I'm a pale, scrawny white guy. I don't smoke... never would, really. However, when I play a game I want the character to be a 7 foot 200lb tower of pure muscle, running with a 5-ton automatic weapon and munching on a cigar. "But that's not real!" Of course it isn't! Neither is taking five bullets to the chest and living! Neither is fighting Orcs with swords! Neither is stomping on enemies and making coins pop out of their heads! I sure didn't spend $700 on a brand new X-Box 360 console to see a normal looking woman doing normal things in higher detail. I could have looked out my window for free. Since the dawn of gaming, we want to do things we can't do in real life. We want to see things we don't see in real life. It seems as though the more popularity gaming develops the more small minorities it develops- and all of them stomping their foot, demanding the entertainment be completely changed to reflect what they assume would be the ideal form. Leave it alone while it's still pure and unperverted.
