Nudity in Games

[LimpingFish]

Censorship in Hentai can seem quite ludicrous, considering the extent of what is actually censored.

Indeed the horizontal black strip at the base of the glans and/or urethra, or vertical black strip along the exposed clitoris, can seem rather pointless to those not familiar with the minutia of japanese censorship.

Back in the early days of Hentai anime's distribution in the US, when the censorship mosaics would be removed for the more liberal western market, it was found that the original artists hadn't bothered to draw the genitals at all, or had simply drawn them as vague shapes, since they figured nobody was ever going to see them anyway.

Anyone remember those really stupid questions at the beginning of Larry 1 and 3, that were apparently meant to "determine" whether you were 18?

I remember it very well : It worked!

No it didn't. I was, like, twelve at the time and I simply wrote down all questions and got the answers right by elimination (there was no internet back then, or looking them up would have been a lot easier). After half an hour or so, I had a nearly complete list of correct answers.

Oh really? Oh no, My raging teenage fantasies have been about black bars and pixilated boobage. I thought that was natural! You mean girls boobs aren't REALLY made of blocky squares?!

No actually they're made of round soft bags.

I always thought of the Larry system as just another humourous diversion on Al Lowe's part, rather than a serious attempt to block users.

The limited number of questions meant a trial and error approach was fairly effective.

Or the old Ctrl-Alt-X, if you knew about it...which I didn't.

Was there really any difference between the versions of Larry 3, based on how many questions you got right? Besides the first scene with the binoculars? I can't remember what they were called..."Fairly Filthy" was one of them...I think.

Wiki...

Oh. There was subtle differences.
