So when I say that Four Against Darkness has an old school nostalgia feel to it, I don’t want people to worry that I’m going to start a long rant about these gamer kids today. A lot of the new stuff coming out looks amazing and there’s clearly a lot of passion behind it. But it’s not for me.

Cooney I have no problem with sex in role playing games or lewd content in general, it's just that the game just seemed to suddenly turn from quasi-serious dungeon crawling to having classes entirely dedicated to sexual acts and each entry having more and more of the same thing. It went from classic fantasy to... IDK what it is anymore.
