So, why isn't this a thing yet?

Wow, Kojima is one crazy nut (not in a bad way, though). Fair enough though, but I do think there's a difference between sexualizing children (which Tera does extensively) and real world depictions of violence, which I guess is meant to impact you deeply? Not quite sure, I haven't played MGS V, but I do know the reasons GTA V got flack for its violence was due to the mindless nature of it. Running over people for fun and the like, I do think the media coverage was completely bogus and it's all just fun and games though. As for Dragon's Dogma, I wasn't even aware you could romance NPCs, is this a base game thing or an addition to Dark Arisen? Not sure how I missed that if the former but I did a quick Google search and,

In honor of the release of Dark Arisen, I’d like to share a story with all of you. A story about how half-assed game mechanics lead to the creation of something terrible. A cautionary tale about how freedom of romantic choice, without any substance to back up that freedom, made me into a monster. The story of how Dragon’s Dogma turned me into a pedophile.

it's obviously a joke, but it didn't go unnoticed completely. But it's a relatively unpopular game so it doesn't get as much, if any mainstream media coverage (which is a pro in my book). I don't think that artist should have gotten flak, but rather the company he was working for. I mean, when told to draw something to represent a child killer I'd say he was rather creative and tame in that regard, much better than the alternative of a happy Vault Boy brutally murdering a child, don't you think? Here's the image for those who haven't seen it.

- Every Elin player ever.

But seriously, don't give me that crap. They're quite clearly pandering to that specific audience and it works, Elin's literally saved Tera. Here, I did a quick google of "Elin costumes" and what do I get? An oversexualized preteen like character wearing something very risque (image below, probably NSFW I guess). Obviously some people play Elins because they're cute and people like cute things, but don't go around and say they're comparable to Lalafells. Lalafells resemble potatoes while Elin's are children or preteen in appearance, and some people clearly do play them to sexualize them with these developer given costumes as they sell like crazy for $$$.
