Re: My thoughts on Halo 4

In Response To: Re: My thoughts on Halo 4 (thebruce0)


: Are you prescriptive or descriptive? :P

Generally I'm descriptive as far as meanings, but there's a point at which communication can't happen unless people agree on what something means.

: All she's missing are nipples and a toe. Tell me, considering her stance,
: that's not a depiction implying some level of sexuality.
: (actually don't, because you probably would :P - and that's not an insult, that's
: a demonstration of YMMV)

OK, but what does her stance in one picture have to do with how she looks for the whole game?

: Someone can be nude and not be sexual - except to people that find seeing
: someone nude a sexual stimulant. And specifically, in the context of Halo
: and the video game and my understanding of Cortana, there was nothing
: sexual about her, visually or otherwise, at least not as blatantly as in
: Halo 4.

I think you left out a few words here, I think I know what you're trying to say but I'm not sure.

: And my point was "current relevance" is the problem. The line keeps
: getting pushed, until what was once completely considered, say, immoral,
: eventually becomes second nature, normal, even acceptable to children,
: depending on who you talk to.
: Whether one considers this a Good or a Bad thing may differ from person to
: person. Personally, I like to think that some lines should not be
: constantly moved, just because a lax line is already making it more "normal".

Is this one of those lines?

: Technically, they aren't significant, while on the whole, they are. Which is
: also a point. Why put such minute details in that change the whole
: perception so radically?

If they're so minute, why not put them in, and how do we know it was even on purpose?

You cannot fall off the floor.
