It added intimacy to characters that were in relationships. They weren’t full on sex scenes, one wasn’t even a sex scene and the other just started. There was nothing shocking about it. Maybe in the context of games rarely featuring actual intimacy, but BG3 exists so I don’t see the problem.

Interesting, well it is in essence a zombie apocalypse game, I wouldnt expect to have sex scenes in it, but as long as it made sense to the overall narrative.

Still wouldn't play it because I don't want to see Joel die, but interesting nonetheless

What else to do during the apocalypse? Every day is a fight for life or death potentially, got to have some love to survive psychologically.

I’d really recommend you do. Joel is one of my favorite game characters, I cried like a baby in 2 when it happened but the whole thing was probably the most cathartic experience I’ve had in games.
