I think sexual tension between Joel and Ellie would be an incredibly bold step.

I agree it would be realistic. While I agree the law is the law and you shouldn't break it in reality, remember that we as a species have only in very, very modern terms (the last like 8% or so of human history) not had relationships with older men (30's-40's) with younger women (13 to late teens). Also, the age of consent in some nations is also considered pedophilia here.


That's called progress in civilization. Plus even if you go back to the medevil ages, it was almost universally agreed on to marry but not sleep with "child brides" until they came of age. Which was also later than today for the most part. Granted as soon as they did (14-16) they were pregnant shortly there after.

However, given the context and the point of this game. Showing a breakdown in that civilization is indeed interesting as it adds another complexity to the relationship between the two.

A good example that's been brought up is the Professional. Which dealt with similiar issues.

It also lets you establish just how "good" a good guy is and adds a bit of realism to the game. If they go to far though, this game will die. Or if they are rejecting "civilization" or trying to maintain it.

Only if they go waaaay tooo far. As long as they kept it subtle but present it woudl work fine.

It shouldn't be the driver of the story by any means.

The opening post and the second response I agree with 100%.

This is a terrible topic, this would slap pedo all over the game ruining its exposure and ruining its image too the public. Guys enough with thinking the teen girl is hott shes a video game character. Anyone whos thought crosses thier mind obviously means you come onto a teen in real life just just stop

I think you skipped over a large chunk of the conversation occuring where this has been discussed.

This is not the kind of game that ought to attempt approaching that kinda subject matter.

Possibly one of the creepiest/worst ideas I have ever heard. Sometimes I wonder about some of the people on this site.

Sorry but it's just really hard to take this topic seriously, when they're are literally dozens of legit pedo topics on this board on how users want to see Joel "bang" Ellie for they're own personal needs. It's disgusting.

Troll topic or not, you just don't joke about these things. Regardless it's pretty clear none of this will be happening in the game either way.
