    While on one hand this seems silly and overreaching, I am also reminded of just how much trouble Rockstar got in for the Hot Coffee mod. The game was reclassified as adult in the US and banned in Australia, and I think they got hit with fines as well as a lawsuit.

    Now sure this was content that technically shipped with the game, but since it was impossible to access without modding for all practical purposes it was added by the mod.

      And such a silly overreaction to the hot coffee situation

      People were perfectly fine when their kids could murder and beat up civilians, but oh no not a poor simulation of sex!

        Yeah it’s mindblowing when murder, which is pretty universally considered not ok, is somehow more acceptable to present than sex, which is a completely normal thing that is accepted in all societies.
