I'm serious, by the way. As ridiculous as it sounds to say that society needs adult video games such as Being a ♥♥♥, I'm here to passionately proclaim that our world desperately needs it.

In the wake of growing limitations on sexual freedom and reproductive rights, it is important that we normalize sexual media in order to make it more socially acceptable to look at, think about, and discuss sex and sexuality. It is through this normalization that we can hope to attain (and retain) rights for marginalized groups and allow them to be who they are without fear of persecution.

If we continue to act like sex is this taboo, restricted, and morally dubious thing that should be shamed, then we'll only continue perpetuating laws and behaviors that set out to control those aspects of people (whether that's someone's sexual preferences, reproductive choices, etc.). Powerful, sincere, and engaging adult games like Being a ♥♥♥ can help counter this social behavior by making it socially acceptable to consume sexual media, which in turn makes sexual media more normalized. It is my hope that those who play this game realize how important it is to become more active participants in creating a more inclusive culture.

Being a ♥♥♥ is incredible. You'll love its stories, its characters, and, of course, its sex scenes. But more importantly, it'll give you the chance to realize that it's okay to talk about sex and sexuality. And if we're finally able to remove that taboo of shame, then perhaps we'll be able to live in a world that doesn't subject people to sex-related anxiety, trauma, and a crippling fear to be who they are. I'll reiterate one more time: buy this game.

Read nothing else about this game. Just play it.

Jagex is an ethically reprehensible company and should not be supported any longer, and I'm glad I quit this game months ago and I'm even more glad knowing I'll never return.

The newest patch rewards passive players and hurts aggressive players, so now the game is a snooze fest until the final 2 minutes (remember, you'll be spending 23 minutes of your life hiding behind trees or collecting func and doing absolutely nothing else because engaging in fights is no longer worth it) where you'll die to whoever camped explosives or guns or katanas.

EDIT: Despite new patches, this game is still trash lmfao. Notsureifsrs. Devs listening to peabrains to make trash updates just to make the game worse. No sympathy for Xaviant anymore.

game is swag
