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.
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.
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.
it was in their last pasted dev blog post about the game. but people don't read those things, they just give thumbs up because derr game good, me like game. me smash
