You guys realize that all legal age of consent means is that legal action can't be taken over it, right? Or are you telling me that the only place in the world that would side eye a 30-year-old (actually billion years old because he's an angel or something, right?) man having sex with a teenager is America.
I can understand why people find the relationship squicky. Especially if the younger character is one who has been abused in the past and is more vulnerable.
But my understanding is that the game is a horror game, and deals with adult issues and squick. And that such a relationship between those characters is not OOC, though it might be distasteful or disturbing to others. If it's sufficiently warned for and behind a cut so that those who want to avoid being disturbed can opt out of looking at it, I don't understand what the problem is.
And it wasn't warned for initially. And now one of the muns has thrown a tantrum and said that they're going to 'quit RPing' because people found their ship uncomfortable.
ok but the biggest problem aside from it being squicky and fetishistic is the fact that it's not in-character at all
the most important point being that isaac has been physically abused by older men in his life so it makes no sense for him to seek one out, not to mention him seemingly being attracted to allison, a teenage girl in canon
1) bisexuality exists, don't make us have this same fucking argument here again wankgate
2) are fucking serious???? daddy issues and especially issues of abuse are like a one-way ticket to seeking male approval and male attention through any means necessary including sexual attention jesus christ it is the oldest tale in the book
Daddy issues =/= seeking out sexual attention from older men. Attention, sure. It becoming sexual is a rarity in boys who are primarily straight (as we've seen in canon; there's nothing to suggest him being attracted to older men.)
Sounds like you're either the Isaac or Castiel's mun and you're reaching to the extent that it's blinding you from how psychology realistically works in order to play out your "fucked up" nonsensical pairing.
britanon here. if a guy in his thirties has a sexual relationship with a teenager, he'd be thought of as a dirty old man at the very least. idk if it would cause the same stir it would in north america but it wouldn't be completely accepted either
