Personally, I think it's still too right for too much of it, but that's neither here nor there. Although I find this a bit disconcerting:Mystery00 said:I never actually said anything about maturity, I think you misunderstood what I meant by "grow up", that was directed at people's response to such games rather than the level of maturity the games themselves have.
Besides that, most entertainment isn't supposed to be mature.
As far as the hentai production is concerned I think it's as varied as any other form of media; you really can't categorise it all with a single sentence, so while your statement is true for some of it, it's completely wrong for a lot of it.
That aside, this particular game seems to be more of a time waster. You can find many similar flash games around the net, which hardly have anything to do with causing arousal.
They're simply there to kill time, with a small sexual twist. Nothing more, nothing less. Nobody in their right mind would let it influence them in any way.
So I really think you're seeing something which isn't there.
Also I think the height of any maturity is finding entertainment in anything you want to find it in, without it effecting your judgement of serious issues.
There's also still the fact that the girls being sexualised through "light-hearted" molestation are very clearly stated as being between 12 and 15 years of age, which is underage even in Japan.Wikipedia Article said:According to Amazon.com, the game is the best selling pre-order game in Japan, and is more popular than The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass[2].
Hmm. On second thought, better make that extremely disturbing.
..
To put in terms of entertainment-related maturity: I'm perfectly capable of finding the Brass Eye pedophilia special hilarious; a game quite possibly marketed towards actual (or even crypto-) pedophiles less so.
