again you don't know I'm not a victim and I'm not about to tell you my life story because one that isn't allowed
on here and two it shouldn't matter if I'm a victim or not I shouldn't have to defend the way I like to play the game
because it is a game not everyone takes issue with everything in games and you shouldn't treat people badly because they don't
see things the way you do don't attack other people here
I'm not asking you for your story, I was not being mean. I'm asking you to imagine what it could be like for someone in this position. It's called empathy. Nor am I asking anyone to defend their play, the whole theme of this thread is to find a solution for people have real issues while still allowing those who enjoy the abductions to keep them.

You're entitled to your opinion about the alien abductions, but OP also seems to be equating this too literally to genuine abuse in real life. Its not the same thing. You have to take a step back and observe the context. It's a silly game. You're entitled to how you feel, but so is everyone else too. So no need to act snooty about it and equally no need for anyone to be terribly dismissive. Your life experiences may lead you to have a stronger sensitivity and thats fine, but you cannot force someone else to hold the same sensitivity as you. Some experiences you may have in life arent experienced by most and you have to recognize that. Its not always someone else being discriminatory.
. Its reasonable to ask for toggles for what you want, but the game cannot be completely toggled. It is a game. There are consequences. Thats how games work. Struggles and rewards. Ultimately though, the team has to choose which toggles to implement where
Your right, it not the same thing as real world experience, but the emotion it can trigger to someone who's been attacked is real. That's why I'm asking for the toggle, the vast majority of stuff in this game is optional, except the one thing that in my opinion really should be.

I have not seen this argument against it until a few months ago and I am on here pretty much every day and have been since I installed the game in 2015, just a short time after GTW released and the only complaints I saw about alien abductions was that they were too frequent and “spammy”. I never once saw it equated with assault until a few months ago.
You can search it, and there are several that come up, I had actually been posting in one of them, but moved my discussion here because that thread had been necroed by someone else, which I did not realize when first posting to it.
