then a page about how violence isnt being used properly and how we should instead change it to make us think about our actions and feel more for both sides of the conflict.
derp on a rehashed PTA mom's angry letter.
But he's right. There's no reason for video games to have the violence of something like a SAW movie. It's not that people are too immature to handle that kind of stuff, it just doesn't add anything to the game.
And sometimes it doesn't even make sense. In one of the Call of Duty games, you put a piece of glass inside this dude's mouth, punch him, and then he's riding around with an SMG helping you shoot his comrades because he had an epiphany or some stuff. The way that plot works to me is that the developers said, "Wow, this interrogation scene is pretty brutal, but it's not bloody enough. Instead of strangling him, why not slice up the inside of his mouth with glass shards?" Then they just completely forget that this guy becomes an ally in the next minute.
It's violence for the sake of violence and it's completely petty and worthless to gameplay.
