Sex in witcher and sex in cyberpunk have a lot in common.
Both...involve...girls the rest of us would normally have no chance at?

You mean in terms of creating relationship? Because in terms of having sex I am pretty sure you could rent one if you have that kind of money. It's possible even today. If you have a lot of money in your bank account and it shows girls will try to hook up with you, even if you're old and yucky. They'll endure and find themselves a lover on the side. Or kill you and get your money, allowing them to pursue their object(s) of desire. If you're handsome young man you're likely to get sex too.Both...involve...girls the rest of us would normally have no chance at?
He clearly expected something closer to a porn scene. I think this is good indication what male gamers think in terms of mature approach towards sex. They aren't there for talk and relationship apparently..
Is he? People laugh at shallow romantic relationships ending with a sex cut-scene (and females or males easily falling prey to gamers), but I'd say that my example proves there is more to this than people voice on boards where such threads surfice. It's apparently not a domain of young and stupid teenagers as we're lead to believe, meaning market for that stuff can be much larger than anticipated (with you and me being exceptions in general trend) and thus such model is continued. It's just my observation. It might not even be true, but note how this stuff shifted between W1 and W2. W2 has a porn-like cut-scene now. Or a few of them, if I recall correctly. Even though we can get porn anywhere.Ahhh..I am that guy, or close enough. I have three kids, though. And your idea of what I think about in terms of a mature approach to sex is way, way off. I found the cards silly and the more porn-scene in W2 titillating but hardly my ideal videogame realization of a relationship.
I'd say your friend is a terrible indication, in fact, as I review my fellow +40 gamers, male. We're adults - we can get porn anywhere. Come on.
Shock value isn't maturity, and the pursuit of maturity through "adult" material is misguided at best. It's one thing to not let censors prevent you from addressing a topic (such as sex), it's another to stick that stuff in as a shortcut to be considered "adult." When every other word is "fuck" it comes across as juvenile. When a character that rarely curses starts dropping f-bombs, it actually has impact. This is just basic creative writing here, has nothing to do with someone being a prude or not a prude.
The "punk" in cyberpunk is supposed to be hypercynical. It's partially why people moved past it in favor of post-cyberpunk and transhumanism. This game, however, is supposed to revel in its cynicism.
Those are things that aren't as likely to make the viewer uncomfortable, nor do they really take advantage of the setting. The whole point is to get under the player's skin. Learning someone you slept with wasn't born as your preferred sex should push people outside their comfort zone, for reasons other than sheer shock value. Does the player accept it? If they don't, do they just avoid having sex in fear someone isn't what they say they are? What are the attitudes of other characters in the setting, who've probably been dealing with this for well over fifty years, at the least?

I'm fine with "fade to black" after the opening romance/sex scene. I really don't feel the need to spend 15-30 minutes watching cyberporn, and anything less then that would be unrealistically short, so why bother?

Woah. WOAH.
SOME of us only need 5 minutes to...watch... a video nowadays.
Age is not as kind to some as to others.
"15 to 30 minutes." Pffff.
I fear what I said may have been offensive to the Cyberpunk community. Apologies. Cyberpunk is a safe space for ideas and images.

I hear your wife calls you "The Minute Man" for a reason ... ((Face it you walked into that one face first))

Not offensive to most of us I assure you.
But I'll say again - no matter what you do or don't do you'll offend someone. If you're not offending the majority don't worry about it.
Also a mod and a senior ( heh heh) board member are talking about said mod's sexual staying power right around you, so...yeah..
Perhaps they could have a porn scene in it.
Just not a vanilla porn scene.
Just to show how low the world can go.
