RangerKarl posted:The lizard sex was the most FO2 thing in this mod. Fade to black, a status message, not even a weird lizard sex sound like all the other fade-to-black sex bits in FNV I think people are so excited and giddy to find ulterior motive in things that they'll grasp at anything. Like yeah the lizards are off-putting but Fisto is arguably just as weird and nobody bats an eye at that.. Definitely should throw shade on America and the much more egregious issues though. Goons in general are terrified of sex I've come to notice.

Sex is cool and good but I don't want to know what other people find sexy unless its me and we are super pals. I've never read a book and been like "I wish I had more insight into the writers hosed up sex thoughts." A mod of a videogame even less so. Fisto owns tho.

Fisto feels way less like the writer was horny about him than the barely legal 18 year old sex slave with stinky feet she talks about in immense detail though

There's a Q&A twitter thread with one of the Fallout: The Frontier mod contributors (they worked mostly on the car stuff) that stated there was no real project management, just a whole lot of chaos. Nothing even as sophisticated as a Trello board - attempts were apparently made to implement such oversight when there were leadership changes but nothing came of it. And if you 'owned' any part of the mod that was a heavily advertised feature then you were basically untouchable. They specifically mention the NCR stuff as being subject to this. https://twitter.com/Xilandro/status/1354723418457985025 It's like a microcosm of the specific niches of the Fallout community as a whole. Everyone gets to put in their little contribution and turns out a lot of it is from Loverslab or the adult section of NexusMods, with a dash of RPGCodex, NMA and maybe some 4chan.

That said I actually like the idea of the Crusaders but I don't think anyone asked that there be teenage sex slaves involved with them. https://twitter.com/Xilandro/status/1354841483816407042?s=20 When your hope was that people will just play the Legion campaign there's the problem right there.

Why don't you like my favourite fashy daddies mr developer. And lol that the NCR campaign was openly considered a hot mess of bad ideas but had to be included to avoid hurt feelings, or something.

The Legion campaign is supposedly based mostly around exploring the map and such (according to the mod page) but you also lock yourself out of it if you do what seems like a pretty innocuous quest to patrol with some NCR troopers. That poo poo really got out of hand FAST and they do not give you any advance warning.

Buddy, I'm as down-to-gently caress with Deathclaws as the next girl, but there's a time and a place. You wanna download that poo poo from Loverslab? Cool. No judgements. Not really my place to kink-shame anybody. But including it unadvertised in a massive content mod isn't great. At worst, it's exhibitionism. At best, it's a failure to read the room. You really gotta give people a heads up on what they're getting into before slapping your dick in their face, and Frontier didn't.

Is it really failure to read the room when people loved all the weird creepy sex poo poo thats been in the series forever? It's bad. But so is being able to be raped in fallout 2 if you play a low int character or whatever. or the sex robot or ghoul in new vegas. But its not "unfitting" because its poo poo that people all are willing to look past when its in the main game but suddenly too far when some weirdo adds it to a mod.

failing on jokes/pushing limits is something you get to do when you build your gamer credit score. frontier forces you to sit through 2 minute pan shots/hour long march + tank escort so they were screwed to begin with. also, yes they're overwrought as gently caress compared to fisto so nobody fallin for pretending they aint horned up

I mean, I can't talk about Fallout 2 because it's been decades and I don't remember it, but in New Vegas they were completely optional in their own quests, and in all instances were uncoerced consensual acts between adults. Or one adult and one animated talking sextoy. Plus, it was hardly explicit. Just a line of dialogue alluding to the act. Fade to black. Fade back in. It's over. It was just the Atomic Wrangler quests in NV, wasn't it? I'm not forgetting anything else?

there's reference to rape (cook cook) but it's not something put in front of the player to indulge in, it's not exactly tasteful or whatever but it's not in the same league as the "your personal rape slave teenage asian mutant girl waifu who did everything that was asked of her forever tee hee"

The deathclaw sex cave came off to me more like a really poorly landed joke but I also totally believe its also a "just kidding..unless...?" thing too given it apparently was also by that skunk guy.

Off the top of my head: Gomorrah hooks their prostitutes on chems to make them compliant. At least one was murdered and the Omertas covered it up. Cook Cook raped at least two characters (Betsy and Pretty Sarah) and ate a child. Dermot and Saint James sold a family to Cook Cook and Saint James is implied to be a pedophile. Siri warns female couriers that the Legionaries want to "try you out." Jimmy was a Legion sex slave. Honestly the prostitutes you hire in Wang Dang Atomic Tango are at least willing to work and goofy. The other stuff is treated pretty seriously and I dont think anyone would treat Saint James as a comic character.

Arcsquad12 posted:Off the top of my head: Yeah. Personally, I think sex work is rad and should be legal, so putting together a gang of unconventional prostitutes who are enthusiastic about their work and able to help kinky people come out of their shells is exactly the kind of story that's in my wheelhouse. The Gomorrah, Legion, and Cook-Cook stuff is all Cop Drama poo poo and can border on feeling exploitative, but I at least feel it's presented in the intended context of "This is sickening" and not "This is boners."

Yeah, most of the weird stuff in New Vegas is a flavor of obviously-comedic (Fisto!) or inept (Betsy). I never got the idea that anyone was getting off on it, working out their own issues, or trying to be edgy--though I remember little of Dermot or Saint James so they might fit that bill. I don't think you're going to find any defenders of the inclusion of Cook-Cook in New Vegas, but there's a very clear difference both in intent and credibility that goes along with the tone both of those moments and the tone of the game and mod themselves. Edit: Like, the rest of New Vegas is clearly not being someone's furaffinity account, as opposed to opening up the Crusaders tower and seeing everyone sporting giant breasts.

The Garret brother's barely controlled and failed attempts at disguising enthusiasm for F.I.S.T.O. is always a good chuckle. e; As opposed to the rescue of the sex slaves from Gammorah. I always kill the Omerta goons that try to stop them, even if I have the Speech to talk them out of attacking. MariusLecter fucked around with this message at 05:46 on Jan 29, 2021 |

It is!? It will!? My God, imagine the possibilities! I liked the one time I managed to bug that quest and somehow got both Old Ben and Santiago to work ad the "boyfriend" escorts and the entire front bar of the Wrangler was a dominatrix cowboy ghoul, two middle aged men in daddy harnesses and Jacob Hoff looking extremely strung out.

The culture of modding on nexus meant basically everybody was inured to Weird Fucky Bullshit with no real sense of shame, and if there was anybody who wasn't, they'd get shouted down for harshing someone's deathclaw sex/bomb collar sex slave buzz and they wouldn't be able to do anything about it. The whole thing could've and should've used a project manager with, just, like, any sense of decency or standards. But what they got was, what, a psycho who screamed at people for wanting to fix his lovely (and embarrassingly badly scripted, both code and writing) NCR campaign? A bunch of horny perverts? One of which was a documented pedo, so when things were going south and they started getting feedback from people outside of nexus' fucky echo chamber, he became the perfect fall guy and patsy to blame for the mod being taken down. But bear in mind it's not like this guy's body of work was a secret, they all continued to work with him until it became publicly embarrassing. Same with whoever wrote the rest of the hosed up fetish stuff. And lol at presenting the loving Legion or the Titsaders of Steel as "the interesting campaigns" as an alternative to the NCR. I won't be surprised if the creep who wrote the America slave companion questline managed to get away scot-free with the pedo taking all the heat. Fallout Frontier basically encapsulates the bulk of the issues with modding culture, and the nexus' modding culture in particular. I might feel bad for a lot of the people who just wanted to contribute something cool to a big, ambitious mod but. This is just typical nexus bullshit.

Also, like a huge part of the modding community depends on people making weird sex pervert mods. New animations wouldn't exist if it weren't for people trying to make animated sex in the games, but they never stop at "making an in game romance between adults more explicit."

Porn is literally why VHS beat Betamax. And all those old paintings and statues of ladies with their tits out could've been made without nudity, but but you drat well know that the people commissioning those pieces specifically requested it. When you go back throughout history, turns out humanity is a species of horrible sex perverts. Still shouldn't put their personal wank material in a game overhaul mod that wasn't advertising itself as porn, though, people gotta have some standards for gently caress's sake.
