Aricane Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I noticed there is no kids in the game, but - there is an elementry school. There's no doubt that kids are behind the whole apocalypse. The question is, where the heck are they holding out? And why didn't they take all the chokolade and lollipops with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you know what, fuck it, PZ should do something controversial like that, then it will get lots of media attention and that's only free publicity. It's a good idea, right?

Depicting controversial topics, such as torture (GTA: TLAD, cutscene where they press a guy's face againt a motorcycle wheel) or male full-frontal nudity (TLAD again, Tom Stubbs' tiny penis) in a game with high quality graphics like GTA gets more attention than if it was PZ.

Guest Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Thats plain sillyGraphics has very little to do with things like thisDepicting violence against children in ANY form is obviously always considered bad. Also, bludegeoning kid zombies is not graphic enough for you, mate?GTA gets more attention because of a variety of factors. Bigger fanbase, better publicity, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum2016 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 If the game puts child zombies into it, the chances of getting onto Steam would be unlikely because Steam would not want a game like that. Also it would cause many issues and possibly get the game banned in several countries if the game gets noticed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pwnguin Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I've seen children in horror/crime movies on TV, doesn't seem like many people think it's a big deal. Of course these movies have an 18+ age rating, which is also ironic considering the child actors aren't allowed to watch it. But perhaps most people have a different attitude towards games? And yes, obviously GTA has a bigger fanbase than this indie-zombie-game in its alpha stage, and therefore gets more attention. But I think people would generally react stronger and be more offended when it's such a realistic game. Compare it to a book, either if it's fiction or a news report, describing violent acts, nobody cares because it's just a book, right? If the game puts child zombies into it, the chances of getting onto Steam would be unlikely because Steam would not want a game like that. Also it would cause many issues and possibly get the game banned in several countries if the game gets noticed Doesn't Steam have an age rating system too?

Nice observation, but we only have a few crime movies in our own Norwegian language. Most of them are foreign, english-speaking movies. And not people with British accents, you know?Ah, but there is quite a difference between video games and mass media my dear pwnguin You mean because you're actually controlling the actions and such?

Pwnguin Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I don't know if you agree or not, but I assume that if PEGI would rate Project Zomboid it might get 15+ or 16+. Well, I just looked it up and PEGI doesn't have a 15 years category, but whatever. And that's even if it depicts the same level of violence as GTA. I'd say it's only fair because PZ is not quite as disturbing for a child as GTA is. Of course PEGI isn't the ultimate guide for what's best for every child in the world, it's up to the family and it depends on mental maturity etc. Magnum, has Steam blocked any games before?

Kajin Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 It blocked a porn game, I believe. But then again all the big businesses block porn from their gaming platforms so that's nothing special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
