ChristCenteredGamer.com Language in video games blog rant

CCG: We just posted our Crysis 2 review today. As fun as this game is we were taken aback by all the language in it. It's not just this game but a trend we're seeing in many games we've been reviewing lately. What gives? Yeah we get it, in stressful situations people swear, it may add some realism but to us we think it's exaggerating a bit. We hang around non-Christians and they don't drop the F bomb every 3 minutes. We miss the options to disable swearing and blood, can we have those back please? Or should we say "Can we have those *#&$^'n options back please?"

What has "swearing" got to do with religion?

I won't get into what I think about people that find words offensive lol.

sorceror1714773d ago

I'm not religious, but *some* religious people are very focused on family-friendly issue. I have kids, I can understand where they're coming from.

Note, they aren't asking to *eliminate* cuss words; just having an *option* to filter them out. See, e.g., Brutal Legend for an example of this done well. (It's in the demo, you don't even have to buy the game.)

Not all kids are restrained enough to know when not to imitate swear words...

Xof4774d ago

Haven't played Crysis 2, but I gave up on San Andreas because all of the swearing.

Not so much because it was offensive to me, but because it was so prevalent it made every character sound like a drooling incontinent dumbass.

sp1deynut4774d ago

W.....T.....F.

I'm CATHOLIC, and I'm offended by this. Don't attempt to mix your "religious beliefs" with your gaming opinions. We have enough crackpots and politicians against us already. You're either for games, or against them...pick one, and keep the religion crap out of this, if it's the former.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits6d ago (Edited 6d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv726d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast6d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM6d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife5d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit5d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife5d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

They included physical disc back then
