Where do you draw the line on coersion/non-consent stuff in a game?

For me it also partly depends on the girl. If she's a party girl who's going to give it away to some random guy after a few drinks then it doesn't bother me to have MC be first in line to sample the goods. If she's more the girl next door type then it feels like a really shitty move to exploit her. I'd be more likely to run interference for her and fend off the jerks who would take advantage. So the first type is pretty much a guaranteed conquest, the only question is whether it's me or Chad/Tyrone if I pass it up. With the other girl she's more the damsel in distress.
It doesn't bother me if the option to exploit both of them exists in the game, but I would only take advantage of the first option unless I was doing an evil/jerk playthrough to see all the scenes in the bad guy path.

Obvious "FICTION ONLY" disclaimer, pretty much everything on that list should get the perpetrators into trouble IRL.
But in fiction it really depends. I'm not immediately into any of those but if a game's basic premise involves capturing, raping and enslaving people and has other sexy or engaging features that's perfectly fine. And it takes some very explicit design to really put me off, a poorly rendered "dead body" looks perfectly fine compared to (non-sexual) anime "puke faces"; a sexy vampire lady technically counts as necrophilia but I'd rather watch her seductively drink an unspecified red liquid than an explicitly consensual "dumb bitch *SLAP*" scene.
For games specifically most of that list also becomes incredibly frustrating when forced upon the player. Nothing against defeat scenes as an option but if they're the only sex content there's no reason to play the game at all (okay honourable mention to Ruins Seeker for actually being better if you just ignore it has porn). Mostly non-con just feels like an incredibly lazy excuse to add sex scenes, yet somehow the authors refuse to go with the even easier route of making the partner friendly and sexually liberated enough to consent.
