@nnnnoby @lunasorcery saw a video of a VR game in development with an assortment of weapnory (clubs, swords, guns) and physics-based-AI dummies to fight. The recorded violence literally made me sick to my stomach and I felt super alienated reading the comments and finding noone sharing this feeling.

@nnnnoby @lunasorcery The dummies were abstract, faceless models and there wasn't any blood effects or anything. It was the sheer carelessness with which the (helpless) characters were brutally murdered, accompanied by laughter that really got to me.

@nnnnoby @lunasorcery I played and enjoyed e.g. SUPER HOT VR. I also play a lot of competitive multiplayer shooters etc. This makes me extra conflicted: what was it that made me feel so bad? Is it really only that those dummies where unarmed (save for fists)?

@nnnnoby @lunasorcery That seems like a very low and self-deceptive bar to me.
