I guess this world is too dirty to think there can't just be a simple survival friendship between two people. Sad.

My amazing TLOU hype thread I created for the motivationally impaired gets locked, but a topic like this is ok.

Thank you mods.

14 is not "pedo". In reality Joel may be having an internal struggle, but I don't think ND will be pursuing any part of that in this game.

In America, anything under 18 is viewed as pedo :roll: 

legally there are 2 states where the age of consent is 14.

idaho and hawaii.

at least according to this.

it may be wrong i didn't bother double checking.

when they first unveiled it I thought ellie was joel's daughter but now its revealed its just some girl he saved along the way. I don't think its gonna be a full-on love story between them but does anyone think its going to be an implied romance?

 

its the damn apocalypse. like 90% of humans have been wiped out. ellie is probably the only chick he's seen in months (and she's around him all the time). the rule of law is out the window at that point. you think joel isn't gonna want to tap that? it would be unrealistic in that senario if naughty dog didn't go there with the story. have joel struggle with it like leon the professional. that would be brilliant storytelling imo

Well I got a loll out of that! While we're on the topic, I always thought Bioshock seemed kinda pedo-ish and creepy. "Big Daddy"?... supposedly one of the most popular handles for pedos, little girls that could easily be exploited hanging around all day with these Big Daddies. Quite an odd premise in a game.

Except her parents would have to be alive and ther is an age cap of 22 if girl is below 18 in those states. Also it's not just america, most mainstream countries have this law (without parents.) Looks like ND found a loophole.

Also why is everyone getting so shocked? like TC said: it's the apocalypse, the girl is hot, she isn't a child, she has already developed her physical features.

Law doesn't exists anymore, and even if it would, it's completely normal to feel attraction towards a teenager who isn't above 18.

i'm willing to bet, it's gonna be a near copy of Walking Dead storyline. 

 

there is one tiny snippet in the Last of Us trailers where joel is ghostly pale white. i'm betting he dies.

Regardless of the laws, "pedo" refers to people that are sick in the head and go after children. Teenagers are not children though. They are considered minors, so it's illegal, but it's not "pedo." Although people might still call it that.

Pedophilia is a sexual attraction to a pre-pubescent child. She looks post-pubescent which would at worst be ephebephilia.

No, it's pedo under a certain degree, even the world court rules under 17 pedo and under 15 even with parental consent. Of course this is just a video game.

I wish everyone would understand this. A pedophile is a sick bastard who feels sexual attraction towards pre-pubescent chidren. once the child hits puberty, it's no longer pedophilia. It's completely normal to feel sexual attraction towards say, a 16 years old teenager who already has a developed body. just because it's illegal doesn't mean it's pedophilia.

How is this topic weird? He's asking a legitimate question that isn't commonly asked about the game. Are people weird for not repeatedly asking the same generic questions all the time?

No. It's not "pedo." It's illegal. Laws and world courts don't decide if something is "pedo" or not. Biology does.

No, I don't think that'd go over well with censors. We all know how much they love to overblow things.

It'll most likely become a father- daughter relationship, not a sexual one.

I realize that. My comment wasn't really directed towards TLOU but just the idea of another game involving pedophilia in its story.

Yeah its impossible for a man to take care of a minor in a post apocalyptic game without him having some illicit desires towards said minor.

Lets just ignore The Walking Dead. :P

I do get what you're saying but i highly doubt Naughty Dog would go that for (or that they would be allowed to go that far).

I edited my post after i reread the OP and he does have a valid point (regardless of how horrible the thought is). But this is a game so i doubt they'll delve into that much deprivation.
