They never are as bad as the media makes out. Take a look at what happened with Manhunt 2 and then play the uncensored version to find out. The same can be said for The Stick of Truth too.

Manhunt 2 is silly now, the graphics are so low poly the violence doesn't have any impact.

You try not being a gamer, or exposed to that type of thing at all, and then take a look at it. Most of the journalists in the media are ignorant of gaming, and likely never played anything past Pac-Man in their lives. ... Copied to Clipboard!

tbh Stick of Truth was worse with the rather intimate scene that was cut outside of the US and that's 2D cutout animation. GTA V's "torture" was tame in comparison.

I personally thought trevor was out of character in that scene talking about how he didn't agree with torture. he struck me as the kind of guy that wouldn't give a fuck especially if he was the one dealing it out.

Not because of what was portrayed, obviously there are worse things depicted in games and other media, but the fact that the game forces you the player to methodically torture someone to progress was unsettling to say the least --- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mead "I'm Mary Poppins ya'll!" ...

mooreandrew58 posted...Mead posted...That scene bothered me my point being you are playing a game where you always play people that are morally off by a long shot. its kind of the appeal of the game. you don't play it but I mean trevor in a scene fucks another dudes woman the proceeds to kill the dude when he confronts him over it. yeah hes a nice guy. he'd never torture anyone. I also recall him being a bit of a bully that juggalo dude. bullying to me is just a lighter form of torture, and one where you don't do it trying to obtain anything, you just do it for the fun of it. --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"

mooreandrew58 posted...no russian its easily the most memorable imo. I personally like games that challenge your morality though. especially when its a case where the story makes it a forced situation as in the character you are playing isn't that kind of person but they are forced into a situation where they must. because it always makes you think "what would I do in that situation" --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!"

GTA protagonists have always been pretty ruthless, but Trevor acts completely without conscience. He plays it a little too straight for me.

didn't remember that. but thats a load of bull. sure some are capable of lying under torture but some are going to spill their guts and be honest if i was being tortured i would say literally anything and everything i could to make them stop. be it lies or the truth but the thing is, the torturer doesn't have any clue whether or not you're telling the truth or not. so even if you are telling them the truth, they could just as easily not believe you and keep on torturing, so it effectively means that it doesn't matter at all what you say. --- depressed again morning comes too fast and i'm tired of the routine ...

I've seen worse tourture on network television.
"But they don't let you act it out!" If by act it out you mean "press x to torture", then yes. Counter point though, play the PS2 Punisher game. That has WAY worse torture and it is more then just one or two scenes. The entire game is built around it. --- I am a senior software engineer.

I mean if torture wasn't effective military would have abandoned it a long time ago. Nearly all first world militaries *did* abandon it a long time ago for that exact reason. If you are being tortured, you say what you have to to make the torture stop. That may or may not be the truth. It's a completely unreliable way of obtaining information, and that's been verified by numerous studies on the subject through the years. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer.
