I was speaking to my GF and explaining why Cyberpunk had so much censoring with regards to the violence and sex on display. She suggested that because it's a fictional city and therefore strictly fantasy, why not ramp up the dystopian themes of humans as commodities whereby we sell our bodies and don't often consider what we do as degrading acts in order to make money?
She also noted that GTA had such disturbing themes first before Cyberpunk even existed so why did this game suffer the censoring fate?
She also came up with a suggestion that the base game could be the censored version, however, you could have the option of downloading all of the mature elements and themes first appearing in the lore in a separate DLC. That way, nothing is compromised and those of us that want the hyper-realistic over-sexualized and ultra-violent escape could do just that with a simple download. Perhaps it could be put behind a paywall that checks card details so as to further legitimize the whole process and ensure only mature gamers can access this content.
I can't help but think that this is the original idea the developers had in mind anyway to explore these themes that we as a mature audience enjoy exploring.
Would this even be viable?
please discuss with some knowledgable discourse!
