senor_huevos_benedicto Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I think that it boils down to the fact that I've never played GTA and thought "I want to kill children" - it just isn't an urge I've ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockStarNiko Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I think all the people saying they don't want children in the game because it make them feel uncomfortable killing them, but at the same time saying mindless killing of adults is fine, have become desensitized to the actual mass murder of men and women in GTA games it is a video game and not real life, therefore there is no difference in what type of pixels you are blowing up or gunning down, only in your own head and if you have no problem with killing adult pixels, but do have a problem with killing children pixels, it is worrying what you are like in real life people keep on making the association of killing children pixels in a game with killing children in real life, but WHY? does killing adult pixels make you want to kill people in real life, or do you know that it is just a video game? if i go on a mad rampage and drive over loads of pedestrians, it does not make me want to go get in a car in real life and do the same, its escapism something that would be funny in a GTA game would be steal an ice cream truck, go to a school and when they all come running out, run them all over it would be funny cos its so over the top, it does not mean i want to go and do that in real life, just as i don't want to get a gun and shoot a cop or a random pedestrian or start firebombing the street or fire a bazooka at a car etc Should we be able to rape people as well? I mean they're just pixels after all, how old are you by the way? I'm trying to test my theory out that is exactly what i am talking about by your very question you are implying that rape is a serious crime, yet murder MASS murder is perfectly fine and not really as serious as rape if we can go round murdering people in a video game, why can we not go round raping people here is the reason because people have become desensitized to violence and murder in video games, so they no longer consider murder and violence serious crimes, which is worrying and one of the reasons so many young people are so f*cked up i am not gonna say my age cos its irrelevant but i bet i am older than you and i am over 18 just to clarify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FelipeVinhao Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 You know what? After reading all this (really, didn't skip a single reply) I've come to a decision too. Not about my personal opinion on the subject, but on how I think Rockstar will behave. If they manage to add killable children and animals in a darkly funny way, they'll add. Don't expect gruesome dismemberment like God Of War. Expect what you've always seen in GTA. Fighting for the right of killing children and animals in game just for the sake of it - not because of realism matter as I mentioned before - is as stupid as those human rights freakos who fight games because they're the root of all evil. "But why people get offended by killing pixels and polygons?" Sincerely, I'm starting to understand them, after seeing so many post about "I really want to kill kids and chihuahuas so hard!". This eager about killing creatures that are weaker than you reflects how strong you want to show to yourself you are, but you're not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayken Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Honestly its only the idiots who dont play video games who think they will make there children do horrible things. Ive been a long time gta player, grew up starying with gta2 and in no way do i go out after how many years in front of a screen playing this game do i have the urg to cross the street and kill my neighbors anmimals... Or kill a kid, or do anything involving killing or stealing a car lol. Gta is getting more and more real looking but i will always know i am holding a controler infront of a tv screen. I have no plans to kill dogs in the game, it just wouldnt do anything for me, but if it chases me or tries to bite me or wont shut its barking mouth i might drive a 12 gauge in its furry little face. Bears? Same thing. RDR got away with it and so can GTAV! Oyah would be kinda cool to toss a grenade and the dog fetches it. Or atleast trys to obtain it...

ll rdny ll Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I can not understand why, when a topic on Killable/Unkillable animals comes up on any GTA message board, Children are inevitably brought up for comparison. Children represent innocence, always, even a pixel-product version. If a dog bit me hard enough, I'd have no problem breaking its neck. No matter how hard a child bites me, I would never harm them. (but that's cause I'm "Wierd" like that) Also, whoever said people who care about animals, and find the murder of animals in videogames distasteful, being the "Crazy Minority" You're wrong. They're actually the majority, people like us who want to be able to do whatever we want in games, are the "crazy minority" OT: Animals will be in the game. If it comes down to killing animals or getting HookerNookie, let me kill animals. (I never really saw the point of having prostitutes anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gtaghost22 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 You know what guys . I think I have a compromise for all you folks who want kids in GTA...Midgets. I dont know why would anyone want to kill kids!! Even in a video game. I mean killable animals is fine by me, actually i really hope killable animals are in GTA V, but killable kids is just way too weird for me!

Supernutz40 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Also, someone mentioned in a different topic that K-9 dogs could perhaps track you to your hiding place in the city, when you have a wanted level. Ya, I mentioned that earlier in this topic, page 2... Is it just me or are we forgetting the pigeons/seagulls from IV? I know they were just birds, but they are animals...

fitbikesbmx Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 They should put blowing off limbs on people but not on animals, seeing how some how people will get offended.Then again it just wouldn't seem right, well it's R* decision. I totally understand what you are saying, don't think I'm trying to be a dick. But seriously, how f*cked up of a world do we live in that it is ok to blow off a human beings limbs, but not an animals? Just my $.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gtaghost22 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) What about the creepy "Little Sisters" in Bioshock? Because (like horror movies) its accepted "by the media" to kill kids in a Horror setting!! And Bioshock is a Horror game thats why its accepted (by the media) to have killable Kids/teens in it , Just like F.E.A.R 1,2,3 they all had a young girl as the main antagonist.. And No one complained about that. Edited February 14, 2012 by Gtaghost22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyzwitgunz Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Give us the option to kill animals. I think that's all that needs to be said. *I don't think there would be any legal ramifications for Rockstar. You could kill horses in RDR and no one had a problem with that legally. If they did, they would be the worst of morons, as per my first sentence of this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarrowsKai Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I dont know why some people dont want GTA V to have animals!! I mean its just a....FU.CKING GAME!! What is wrong with killing animals in a GAME! its not like we are killing them in real life too! I'm a vegetarian, and I have absolutely no problem about animals being in GTA. Hell I used to go on massive hunting sprees in RDR, there is a massive difference between games and real life that people like PETA really need to understand.

Just my $.02 It can come from the thought that people are probably more likely to try and replicate killing or maiming animals in real life rather than humans. Saying that though, for years a small group of maniacs have been trying to shut R* down claiming that GTA is 'a training simulator for criminals' and other such absolute bollocks so tbh, I don't think the game is suddenly going to turn someone into a sadistic monster no matter what is included in it. If you're pre disposed to harm living things, human or animal, in such a senseless way then you are, and it has nothing to do with a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Mitch_Baker Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) Yes, R* is only going for the quick profit. That's why we see a new GTA game every 18 months just like Call of Du--wait a minute...it's been four years since the release of GTA IV? And more than two years since the release of the second DLC for GTA IV? Isn't that basically the total opposite of "just going for the quick profit"? They could easily force feed the public GTA after GTA if they wanted to. But they're not...why? Because they're trying to make a good game. You say I'm "making excuses for their cowardice and laziness"...how so? Because I like the directions that they've gone to in the past? I believe they're omitting certain things (like children) not because they're cowards, but because they actually think the game is better without them. Also, you referred to Skyrim, but I have never played it or even seen anything besides the commercials. What exactly did they put into the game that you're referring to? You said the "GTA franchise has a big enough following that they could get away with anything now"...maybe they don't want to? Maybe they don't think it's the right direction for the franchise. If I'm a facist for saying "if you've said to yourself 'I need to be able to kill kids' you're probably a little messed up and shouldn't be playing GTA in the first place" then so be it. That's my opinion. Enjoy your time rebelling against "the man", bro. "If killing people is okay, then everything is fair game". Really? So since we're able to have sex with hookers in the game, we should be able to rape random women walking down the street too? Hell if we're going to have children in the game, we should probably be able to rape them too since it's all the same...right? They're just pixels, after all. Still seems pretty f*cked up if you ask me. In my opinion killing people doesn't make everything fair game. Oh where to begin... - You really think R* spent the whole four years working on GTA? You're very naive. They've been pumping out all sorts of other garbage in the mean time, from multiple "studios", and of that 4 years they only spent approx. 2 actually developing the game. That's why V trailer still has IV graphics, they haven't been working on it as long as you all think. Also, most of TLAD was already in IV including the beta of the bikes, so all they had to do was add a few new actors and some mission code which any amateur modder can do. Bigger games have been made in less time, so time and money aren't the issue here. - Seems to me I am argueing for more features, and you for some reason want less. If restriction is the direction you want GTA to go, then good for you We're not talkin' Saints Row type crap here, just some reasonable real-life stuff. - As for Skyrim, I suggest you give it a try and you'll see what CAN be done if a company is willing to take the time and put in the effort. It's insanely detailed, and full of all sorts of unecessary sh*t. - Speaking of the arguement that GTA doesn't need to put in children or animals because they're not necessary, I ask you all: Was all the IG television in IV necessary? Was going to the cabaret necessary? Were helitours, or bowling, or taxi missions? I would much rather have seen animals than Katt Williams. So obviously necessity isn't an issue either. - And I say you're a facist because you imply that, because my sense of morality about digital children is different than yours, that I shouldn't be playing the game. You sir, are a douchebag. Your opinion does not transcend time and space and alter where it stands, and quite frankly if you can't tell the moral difference between digital children and real ones I'd say you're the ones that's "messed up" and you need to get a grip on reality. It's all just lines of code son, if I could rape people in GTA I'd laugh my ass off. Doesn't mean it'd be funny in real life, but the two aren't connected (for us Sane people anyway). - I think, because video games are a type of artform, that nobody should be allowed to suggest something can't be included, no matter how YOU feel about it being a self-righteous goof. Now I got a life to lead, so I'll leave it at that. @EscoLehGo: I am 28 years old. If you can't see the fun in throwing a baby stroller off a bridge into traffic with good ol' ragtime physics, then I suggest you run out to the nearest ATM, take out all your money, and go buy yourself a sense of humor Edited February 14, 2012 by Big_Mitch_Baker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
