This is classic Japan “don’t harm public morals” grand standing. Japanese culture puts on a good mask to show everyone else how good and clean they are, but go take a look at their fan mangas and old video games and that mask doesn’t just come off, it flings itself off like a pinball from the plunger runway.

Was this guy born yesterday? You don’t “ask” the internet for anything like this. Just adds more fuel to the fire.
It’s for posterity. He ‘asks’ the same of FFXIV players and yet it’s modding scene is one of the most degenerate places in gaming.
I know. Just people on these kinds of positions used to have the brains to just ignore this stuff and pretend it doesn’t happen.
…you don’t spend much time outside of the FF14 community, huh? 😅
at least you’re admitting it’s degenerate
Nowhere near the scales of other communities 😂🤣 have you not heard of overwatch? The game was literally made for r34, as far as I can tell
Japanese developers may have a still lag towards the new generation of Japanese gamers (which are almost strictly on Mobile with PC gaming arising).
I wonder what’s his stance towards fan made Doujinshi; yeah, I mean “those” Doujinshi.
