Would you kill a kid in a videogame?

[Lord Tony®]

Videogames linking to real violence has been debunked.

Chances are if I kill 7 million people in a videogame I won't try to do it in real life.

I wouldn't.

I mean sure, if it was like for example Alma from FEAR, I'd make an exception.

But I tend to link my personality to the characters I play in games and so I really wouldn't even consider it unless I had to.

[Tokerovin]

I can kill kids in real life, therefore, why not in FIFA16?

[Nonnel]

making people invincible based on arbitrary traits is silly

[SuperSuit12]

Is it acceptable to steal the cane from an old man causing him to fall down to the floor? Now he's lying on the floor helpless probably broken his hip.

At least a kid could run away so why do people have this mentality that it's better to kill an old man than a kid?

because you're taking away less potential life

i kill any dog, cat, or bird that roams around los santos, do you think i'd care about killing a kid (in a game)?

[McJob]

Don't be so loving stupid.

This is a VIRTUAL kid. It's not even a real kid. Games are SIMULATIONS. The whole point is to allow for things we can't do in real life, otherwise we might as well just play physical games.

[Sideswipe]

only if they annoyed me

[Marios]

If that kid was harassing me or my slave player character, well, I can't say a few drops of red rum won't solve spill.

[Biostorm]

Not to be edgy, but I would if the story required it

Mindlessly going around killing every NPC gets boring after a while though

[IkeTheGeneric]

i want to kill kids in video games

[Nickpb 3.0]

I only kill gay npcs

[Lord Tony®]

because you're taking away less potential life

Killing an old man and a young kid is no different.

Just because one has lived longer than the other that doesn't mean one is in more favor for the other.

[Willco2]

...would I be a bad person if I said I wanted to kill Shawn from Fallout 4?

[Bisjac]

i believe backing out on that detail was what made dead island such a failure.,
