discussion Proud Father (Off-Topic)

From what I understand in the US you can still go to court on an obscenity charge. But it is extremely rare. Unless you are doing photorealistic shit with A.I they don't really care. Otherwise all the sites that host loli content would've been shut down by now.

There are, of course, countries where they care less about laws or morals and more about money...

Honestly, what's next, first it was movies making people violent and inciting crime, then it was mainstream games' fault, and now they're targetting 3DCG/pixel arts and lewd games, where will these 'people' stop before they realise that these crimes and criminals they're attempting to stop were committing these crimes before digital media was even a thing

Exactly. If you see a movie, lets say an old western, where people are shooting each other, will anybody go to the next town to shoot people down?
If you see a crime series with serial killers, will anybody try to become the next one?
If you see gay porn, will you jump onto your best friend to suck him off on next visit?
So why should anybody in the world become a child molester by playing a game with lolita content? Speaking about Lolita, why is the book legal? Why is Shakespeares Romeo and Julia legal? Both was underage regarding to today´s laws.
Noone ever will become criminal just because of playing a game with computer generated characters. Maybe it even could protect real persons one day after others will be able to fulfill their fantasies in a fantasy world. But of course, psychologists would have to do studies about it first. Just my two copper.
In fact I don´t get that point, why anything could be illegal in the world not hurting any real person. But australia isn´t the only country with laws like this. It is the same in many europian countries, where it is even forbidden to openly discuss it, like we do in this thread. Where even written sentences without any picture could bring you into jail. As if it would force everybody, who reads it, to copy it in reality. The sick ones are the ones who made that laws, because obviously they had that thoughts themselves.

I need to add something. I played a lot of games with incest content. That never made me thinking about doing the same with my mother, sister, aunt or daughter in reality. Not even for a second. Same for seeing young people having fun in a game. And only reminds me on times, when I was young myself.
If you don´t have such thoughts before you start to play, you will not develop it while playing. It is not like a promotion for doing this in real world.
No game ever will change your view of morality and ethics. If that would be the case, they would be in need to forbid nearly every game in the world. And every movie. And every kind of literature including poems. This is a point, where laws are schizophrenic.

Weird thing is people in the US blame music, movies, games for the violence - but pretty much every developed country listens to that music, watches those movies and plays those games without the massive violence, so it isn't that...

i did not know the dev went to prison for making this game! thats complete bullshit its just a damn game. i cant say america would be any different either im sure if they saw someone was making a game like this they would try to put them in prison too hopefully the judges would see the ignorance in doin so. like these arent real people everything is so fake up to even the plot like this is not based in reality at all its just fiction i dont understand how you can just ruin someones life for this. sure if he had real child porn then thats different but for a game makes no sense

In Australia making the game and selling it are both illegal. Under Aus law anything depicting underage characters is banned. Interesting fact, its illegal for me to buy this game as well as a shit load of other games, not just porn but also games with violence. However its not illegal for me to download and play

In the USA it's complicated because it varies by state. With 50 states, in some it can be prosecuted, and in others it isn't illegal to generate fake pictures.

I think you'll find that in Australia if you download and play, when the police take your equipment, you'll be charged for possession which will result in jail time plus you'll be put on a register.
Australian law counts possession as very bad no matter how you got it.

 

[MattShizzle]

Australian law is insane. Someone went to prison for something with Bart & Lisa Simpson fucking. They sell those at the shore here.

Can you actually name anyone who has been convicted and put onto the register just for downloading and playing a game. So far no one has been arrested in Australia for downloading this game or any other game
