(Serious question)How sex is depicted in this game?
I always wondering on how sexual intercourse will be depicted in this game or any other "life sim" games for that matter? Cartoonish like The Sims games where the characters went under the bedsheet or they will be doing it on the bed realistically with some blur/mosaic censor apply to it?

From what I know the LbY developers are pro-nudity but this could only apply to non-sexual nudity such as toplessness, bathing/showering, etc but they never said anything about sexual relationship yet. There is a "have sex" option in social interaction menu when the player click at other character to interact with in one of the gameplay video but so far no intimacy mechanics including sex ever revealed yet.

Paralives is another cartoonish take on "life sim" genre just like The Sims so I think they might take similar path when depicting sexual acts. I have no idea about InZoi but they might take creative way to depict it if they want to make the game family-friendly. Yes there will be an adult mod similar to WhickedWhim in The Sims 4 for example but I'm not talking about mods in this thread.

According to interviews, one can have blurs or not have blurs and the bodies will be anatomically correct. Otherwise not much else is known.

There is unlikely to be anything more than nudity.

Why do you want sex in this game? Not trying to be rude, but don't use this and other games as a substitute for real life.

It's a life sim and sex is a part of life.

Yes, it's a part of life that everyone can just do in real life rather than seek in a game. Before anyone calls me a prude, I had the same issue with Sims 4 making entire stuff packs out of stuff laundry and housecleaning.

Life simulators, when you get down to it, are video games and video games are supposed to be about escapism and gameplay, not a substitute for real life. Unless players are asking for something that makes sex funny (Saints Row 2, Leisure Suit Larry, GTA), leads to additional gameplay and storytelling, or plays out in a funny way (like how one of the lifetime wishes in The Sims 3 is to bang in five different places), I don't see the point of having it simulated.

What about for starting families in game? should all of the kids be immaculately conceived? If you don't want it you can choose to not use that feature. Not everyone who will use it in game is trying to turn Life by You into a porn game.

Everyone their own form of escapism. That's the beauty of Life By You. It literally is done by YOU when you set your parameters.
