My mum would try to stop me playing this because it was too violent. The prisoners getting whipped in the dungeon really apalled her. Violence has come a long way since then.


I must admit that I stopped watching this video at the scene where the prisoners are getting whipped because I found it upsetting. I watch Game Of Thrones and have played violent video games. So I'm not your Mom. :)

Perhaps the audio is just too clear ? Or perhaps there isn't enough going on scene-wise to distract. Or just the fact that the whipping is perfectly periodic and programmed to go on indefinitely. I don't know.


Right... now I can whip the prisoners in VR with a haptic feedback whip controller.

Or if I'm feeling especially dangerous pay them to whip me.
