Suck blood and kill people

Quote: I'm sitting in a roundtable interview with a handful of journalists after having just spent more than an hour playing Lords of Shadow 2, the scene in question being one in which a withered Dracula stumbled toward a family with his arms outstretched, the camera abruptly switching to a first-person perspective. He kills the father outright, then grabs the mother and sinks his fangs into her neck, draining her life energy to restore his.

Sexualized imagery is nothing new in vampire fiction, but this scene is kind of stunning for how blatant it is with its allusions to rape. It's a scene that forcibly reminds me of the boxart from RapeLay, down to the woman protecting her child and the disembodied arms (your arms) reaching out from the camera. Regardless of the intentions in constructing the scene, the imagery is ghastly.

Of course, nobody cares if he murders a man and a child in the very same scene, but a vampire bites a woman's neck ? OMG rape Banana

Here is the author, WYB?

Being a vampire is all about power and domination and the idea of rape.

That's why girls think it's so hot.

None of them want to admit it, of course.

Another stupid female games journalist trying to get noticed/and or destroy an industry/pass time that men enjoy. I wouldn't give it any air. Complain about it and it validates her argument.

RE: Everything is rape, even when vampires in video game do what they do
Something I've noticed is how many women refer to all sex as related to rape, and feminists go one step further saying all rape is about power and domination. But in reality for a man sex will always mainly be about getting the nut. To women sex will always be about power, they just need to get over it.
