Is it just me or does the bar scene give you ample hints about how bad things are going to go down?
Putting aside PG's blatant warning about it, she is literally smashed drunk and clearly not in control. And then, in walk two dudes, who can only be described as subhumans with the word "douchebag" stamped on their forehead. And before things even get to 500, they are already leaking hints about their intentions with Lisa at the bar table.
Admittedly, my curiosity got the best of me and I continued the scene against my better judgement, but the moment they pulled her into the public restroom and started manhandling her, I knew in that instant that there would be nothing consensual or reasonably gentle about the unfolding of this event and I simply reverted a save.
Granted, I got caught off-guard by the nature of the event myself as the game does put you in a very different, sunny side of life story immersion. But it also reminds you of how horrific a direction your life can take by making one innocent mistake.
Anyways, to each their own, I suppose. Perspective differs, and for me, I simply walked away from the route rather than cultivate a strong opinion against the entire game. After all, the rapey content is completely optional and is not needed to enjoy/advance the main story at all.
