Hey Meg, thanks for mentioning Barbaren, I was about to bring it in myself. ;-) I think it's kind of a back door approach to say the game is actually feminist, in that there is no rape. Ben said as much when he visited me in Hamburg. On the other hand, women in the game are categorized strictly in how pretty and, y'know, able they are. They are no more than trophies, which is pretty sexist when you think about it.

My take is that this macho image of a women is exaggerated and ridiculous and therefore no offence to women, but rather a way for intelligent people to mock all those idiots who still actually live this sexist shit.

Ah well, I am derailing the discussion. Be sure, though, that Barbaren will have some pretty explicit graphics when it finally comes... out.
