Sibling Incest at Act 3 Brothel....Why put this in a video game?
Another way the game goes too far in terms of the over-sexualization & woke degeneracy is the brother & sister prostitute couple you meet in the Act 3 brothel.

I mean, I initially thought "oh interesting there's a brothel in Act 3" and I expected a brothel akin to what we see in Witcher 3 or Dragon Age Origins (where you can select a certain individual to provide you "services").

So I reach Act 3 and I find the most woke brothel ever. I was hoping for a cute elven female or such that I could romance there, thought maybe a funny scene would trigger if Shadowheart found me cheating on her, etc. - but nope that would be too normal.

Instead, I find the most disgusting option (beyond the bear secks and octopus secks they give you the option to partake in) - there's a brother sister drow couple and you can't even choose to select only ONE of them e.g. the drow female. Nope. You MUST engage in a foursome or nothing at all.

It's even implied they are incestuous with each other. :steamfacepalm:

Not at all realistic writing for a high-fantasy medieval setting.

Ciri is the product of incest due to sorcereress's manipulating her bloodline.

And it was portrayed as evil / taboo.
As was homosexuality for the longest time. Your point?

He said something someone disagreed with, so the logical next steps have to be taken:

-report him for some BS reason
-call him a homophobe
-call him a bigot
-call him a troll
-remind him he never gets laid IRL but you do, cause you are a sex god
-remind him he has no friends IRL but you do, cause you are just such a charismatic personality
-make up some ♥♥♥♥ he didn't even say and then attack the thing he didn't even say
-claim the moral high ground

Lmao, he definitely skipped some steps, true. Dude is getting sloppy.

skipping steps happens when you see the same crap from you, every damn day.

Are you actually arguing that incest should be legal now too as well?

And it was portrayed as evil / taboo. They never let Ciri/Emhyr have sex in the game and commit incest.

Except in this game they do let that happen. And you potentially partake in it as well. It's basically the equivalent of Geralt/Ciri/Emhyr/Yennefer having a foursome.

Drow are incestuous in DnD, they do a lot worse. Go read Homeland.

You used two bad examples for other fantasy games. They both contain incest.

I don't know. Are you arguing that something should be demonized just because people demonized it for the longest time?

:-D Great man. Maybe its because I'm from a country with legal prostitution so I know more details, but the last thing you will see in a brothel is romance.
To be fair, considering how "romance" in this game works it is the correct attitute to have. The "romance" in this game is reduced to "who do I want to lay" anyways. Might as well look for a ♥♥♥♥♥ for that.
Well ok thats a good point. After playing several characters by now I think i can narrow the problem down to the fact that the NPCs actively try to engage in a sexual relationship with the player character and its not the player that initiates it. I think if it was designed differently people would have much less problems with it. It is fine if I the player initiate a romance with a character and push the friendship into sexual direction. But it feels unnatural if the NPCs do it to the player themselves.

It would only be incest if they did things with each other. if they ended up do the dirty with each their partner next to each other, or pleasured another together, it wouldn't be right? Did you see them do the dirty with each other? no.. You let things like this run around rent free in your head and make up fantasies...

Should have read Legacy of the Drow from 1993 where Drizzt Do'Urden is almost inducted into an orgy with his own sisters in it.

They put bestiality in the game, what makes you think the developers have any sort of moral compass on adding any other degenerate thing in the game?

People who defend it are just going to use the same ole "It's two adults consenting" So what's wrong about it?
Lysamus Aug 29, 2023 @ 8:19am 
I had no idea those characters existed, as I didn't frequent the brothel.

If you don't want to be exposed to sexual content, maybe control yourself?

Your first and only mistake was thinking it would be akin to Wticher 3 and Dragon Age.

Damnnn son, it sounds like you are. I feel bad for your siblings if you have any. I hope you get the help you need.

That's what the whole thing said to me too. They won't bang each other, but will alternate between banging you and your partner.
Still kind of goofy though and Karlach's reaction to the mere suggestion had me in stitches.
