Think about it like this.a film with someone gay in it isn't going to be making Time Magazine cover and Good Morning America like "is this too far?" or "Gayz in movies, enough is enough" lol It just doesn't happen. Treat it as they would ANY MEDIUM, let it happen and let gaming grow up for once as you never hear this type of talk about other mediums.
That is just a double edge sword and hurts this medium more then helps.ĭevelopers scared to put crosses in game, buildings lol. I'd rather have lots of games where I disagree with the view of the person that made it, then publishers scared to let the developer express their ideas freely. If someone thinks its forced, thats ok too, anyone is free to think that. It is refershing to see now they have a better grasp and a lot of the mock adverts are so close to the real ones, but a good 1/3 off to not get into legal trouble. It has improved since (the in-stadium mock adverts), but back almost 10 years ago when all of this was getting locked down, they dared not even flirt with the typical "no more than two thirds accurate likeness" barometer. Then licensing for the "legacy/classic" stadiums are expensive, some much more than others, hence why till this day certain classics are not included. I seen first hand how much "red tape" there is now, even when it comes to them having to alter specific things in the stadiums themselves due to the items being owned by another IP and nothing to do with the Stadium itself. This comes from spending time at SD Studios with MLB The Show on the licensing end of things.
Now that it is mainstream and pulls Hollywood numbers and appeal in the mainstream, they started tightening down on them more and more. License holders started paying attention more to their IP rights, since they at one time did not take gaming seriously. Then the College Football/Retired Pros started suing EA for likenesses, and it all started to stem from there. Oh I remember a ton of sports games where it was the "Wild West" over a decade ago.
