People will say it's disgusting and turn around to say Rockstar should make another Manhunt
In GTA the guy is surving the tortureAlmost like folks forgot GTA V had you doing the same thing in the name of national security from a corrupt FIB agent from what I remember.
"No one is innocent in Tormentor. Every prisoner hides a dark secret, and your job is to make them confess live on the Darknet.They're not really comparable outside of the violence on face value. The context of the games is important.
In Manhunt your character is being blackmailed into killing by a sadistic snuff film director or else his family will die. He's not doing it because he enjoys it. In Manhunt 2 your character was the subject of medical experimentation which has damaged his mind, and the organization responsible for that is trying to hunt him down after he escapes.
In both games, there are people who are actively trying to kill you. As far as I remember, everyone you kill in the games is human trash - skinheads, asylum inmates, gangbangers, rapists, pedophiles, corrupt police, bounty hunters, sadistic paramilitaries.
This is a far cry from the derangement in this game, where the player is the bad guy buying presumably innocent victims off the darknet to torture for their own sick amusement. Yeah, it says in the game description it's to get meds for his schizophrenia, but that's hardly a moral justification anyone would accept.
The Manhunt games work extremely well because you are the victim in the story. You're not really meant to enjoy the violence and horror that's unfolding either, but given the circumstances and the depravity of the people pursuing you, it can also feel a little cathartic without making you feel too dirty. Excellent games.
/threadWell said. I'm not into this, but these pussy ass calls for censorship are disturbing. Nothing that's allowed in passive media should be off limits for interactive media, to think otherwise is to literally believe that literature and film should arbitrarily be allowed to explore much darker and more disturbing areas than interactive media without any reason beyond, "I don't like it." The mindset is nothing more than hypocrisy.

Looks like something where the novelty would wear off quickly
I'm totally fine with the game existing. More games should push boundaries since that's inherently interesting.I'm all for devs trying to push the envelope and even stir up controversy when it comes to gore/violence. Happens in the movie world too.
Day 1. Should satisfy my torture fetish just fine

You can mark individual games as privateHow do you hide your steam purchases? Asking for a friend.
Its no different than making a SAW or Hostel movie.What a hell is the point of this shit, what kind of studio sits around for years developing this?
Hatred was made by Destructive Creations, not Madmind Studio.looks crappy though, and hatred sucked
Hiding is for cowards. I'll be in the credits, like a real man, listed as a backer.How do you hide your steam purchases? Asking for a friend.
Those franchises are disgusting as well.Its no different than making a SAW or Hostel movie.

Just like splatter and horror movies?Why??? Seriously, why do we need this? (We don't).
That's some fucking messed-up shit that shouldn't exist.
True, it's not hurting anyone physically. Sure. But come on, that's some really sick shit and it's absolutely nothing like splatter and horror movies.Just like splatter and horror movies?
The game isn't hurting anyone.

The SOLE goal of the game is to inflict torture on someone. That's it. It's pretty fucking sick and twisted and comparing it to a horror movie is, well, it's pretty lame.
No, it doesn't harm anyone directly, but it does damage the reputation of computer and video games.Just like splatter and horror movies?
