Option To Remove Gay Bear Sex?
As title. Forgive me, as what a time to be alive where we have to ask such questions, but I heard there's an option to remove this scene? Any truth to that?

Guys, GUYS! It's clearly the games fault for showing this scene when you have to click "the Bear Form stays on during sex" twice. Shame on those devs.

i mean, the fact that it is a human adult does make it okay my dude, its not a bear, it is a human being who can transform.

if he (could) turned into a pile of tentacles or a cup of water it would still be okay, cause an adult can do what they want with their body champ.

you bringing up children when discussing what 2 adults are doing is a)a bad faith argument and b)kinda creepy you were thinking of children when talking about a sex scene.
Ok so you would be okay with instead of the druid turning into a bear, it was a sorceror turning into a child and then having sex? Thats what you are saying right?

Its not a bad faith argument, its the only way to explain why depicting bestiality is wrong even if the animal is "actually" a person. But you know, it sounds like you would be okay with the game having someone transform into a child and have sex. If thats the case, then okay, but just say that you are fine with a game depicting pedophilia, as long as the child was only appearing as a child with magic.

My God, what is this obsession with pedophilia you have?

No one would accept that because it has no comparison whatsoever, even in a joking context it would be disgusting.

The kind of bestiality you're talking about is sexual abuse whose victim is an animal that has no way of consenting, and even if it could, it would still be very wrong.

That's not what happens here, because IT'S NOT AN ANIMAL, it's a man, aware of his actions, who turns into an animal to have sex with a vampire (an undead one, shall we say it's necrophilia too?), it's at most a pretty disgusting fetish, but not bestiality.

Your attempt to put this as something equivalent to pedophilia only weakens your argument.

Because the people claiming that "No, it's actually OK to lust after this small anime child because she's actually 10,000 years old" are being completely disingenuous and overtly sexualizing that drawing because it's a child.

What is being presented here is not disingenuous: it's an adult (half-elven?) male engaging in consensual sex with another adult male while happening to be in a shape-shifted form of bear (i.e. not an actual bear). No one is sexualizing Halsin because he's a bear. He's a hot Druid beefy muscle-daddy (that part is sexualized) who happens to shape-shift into a bear form while retaining full sentience and consensual understanding of the situation - something an actual bear cannot do.

Also, it's a false equivalency. The actual 1 to 1 comparison here would be if Larian made it so you could romance or ♥♥♥♥ the various animals you can speak to throughout the game (with the "Speak With Animals" spell). That would be weird and problematic because those are actual animals, not a sentient adult humanoid able to give consent who happens to be able to shapeshift.

Funny that when the original divinity 2 sin was released nobody said anything about having relations with the red prince (basically a humanoid lizard), but anyway.

Ps: It is worth remembering that this whole scene is basically a joke, nothing is explicit and seconds later a squirrel obviously traumatized by the scene is shown.

"man these 2 adults are consenting to sex, clearly this will lead down the slippery slope fallacy into children being involved!"

wild cold take my dude.

truly clownshoes behavior to be up in arms over the D&D joke of "i wanna ♥♥♥♥ the dragon" being played out.

your focus on children in telling, get some help, you shouldn't be thinking bout children when talking about a sex scene at all, healthy people don't do that.

But a sorcerer doesn't turn into a child do they, its a elf wildshapping into a bear, stop being a disingenuous prick.

Yes, dont sniff gay vampire ass, instead go for a female companion.

you need option * using brain *

I never do romance options in a video game unless it actually gives me in game perks. You can choose not to partake in it as well and avoid the cringe.

It's very simple. Just don't romance the hot, buff, wild shaping druid and you will never even get close to seeing the gay bear sex scene.
You can still not see it by just saying you want to have normal sex, judging by the option son screen at the time.

Dont want to ♥♥♥♥ a bear? Simple, dont try ♥♥♥♥ a bear and *SPOILER!!* you wont ♥♥♥♥ a bear
Haunting Hyena Jul 30, 2023 @ 8:09am 
If you don't want the bear sex scene, then don't have sex with the bear?

We're locking this thread as it has devolved into non-productive argument. Thanks for your understanding.
