Default Re: Fantasy vs Reality

The thing that drove me to protest was not that it was a game about pimps - it was that it was a game about pimps that attempted to turn prostitution into a joke.

Space Empires doesn't turn the murder of planetary populations into a joke. If it did, I wouldn't play it. It's true it can be played that way, but that's a matter of personal use.

And quite frankly, I consider military strategy and political options benificial things to learn (So long as you don't actually start acting like a dictator)

The petition isn't trying to make the game illegal; it's simply expressing societical displeasure at something everybody who signs it finds disgusting.
