  1. What annoys me about it is just that people can't stop shoving it in other peoples faces long enough to not ruin it for the rest of us. You wanna make a lewd Adventurer plate? Cool. But once the Devs find out what you're doing, they'll yank the choke chain and you've ruined it for everyone.

  2. This is the definition of "This is why we can't have nice things."
    I both think they're hilarious and inappropriate, Square is going to react and HOPEFULLY it'll just be a new option under report and not scrapping the whole thing.

  3. I think it’s funny too! The profile pics aren’t as bad as characters emote sexing- ? Idk maybe that can be a new phrase for that! 🤣 as an adult I don’t care! BUT my 13 year old got the game for his birthday. Now I believe in letting be exposed to the world he’s learned about the basics and I’m not trying to shelter him- I’m sure middle schoolers are already talking about that stuff but I have my idea of limits on sexual content I’m okay with him being exposed to. And learning about online behavior. I know he’s technically too young according to ratings. As for the profile pics. I think it’s obvious to adults but maybe hit of miss for younger kids if they catch on.

  4. Does porn and shit need to be everywhere? It's funny but not that funny. I love sex and I'm a pretty liberal minded person when it comes to that. but come on there's a time and place. It just makes the game feel trashy.

  5. I love Zepla's laughter.. lost it when she says not to shove it on other people's faces with a straight face oblivious to the phrasing and topic she is talking about..

  6. I don't mind the "sexy" ones. I'm mean most of them aren't sexy since another ass in a 2B ain't something special, but some of the flat out sexual ones are a bit off putting.

    But then the dude with the axe shaft reaches such an extreme that I unironically love it.

  7. Using the PEGI rating as justification is completely disingenuous. Everyone knows no one cares about the age ratings on games. There's plenty of kids playing GTA V, Call of Duty, or Mortal Kombat, so let's not pretend shall we?

  8. The easiest solution overall would be to allow players to hide instant portraits in content, or simply have a default portrait to load in – something static and not changed by the player themselves, that way players can still see their teammates/opponents in PvP, but don't need to see close-ups of people's butts, noses, or crotches if they don't want to.

    I don't think policing players who make lewd portraits is gonna work, since that's such a grey area and it'd end up taking a lot of time and effort on the part of the GMs to constantly pull aside every Miqo'te in 2B bottoms and get them to change their portrait. It's a losing battle of attrition.
