An Xbox player was given a year-long ban for recording nude scenes in Baldur’s Gate 3.
Any clips you record on your Xbox are uploaded to Microsoft’s servers by default and may be automatically flagged as explicit content, as /u/Daddy-Vegas on Reddit found out when he automatically received a combined 390 day (4+21+365) suspension from Xbox Live for three clips he recorded.
His first appeal was apparently rejected, but subsequent appeals led to his ban being lifted after the gaming press picked up the story.
console ownership looks like a worse option everyday. Fuck microsoft also
You don’t really own a console. Just look what happened to Sony owners and the content they paid hard earned money for on their consoles. Microsoft and Nintendo are not outliers here. The PCMR “weirdness” the guy above was complaining about is also not walled off from this bullshit. Thanks to Microsoft.
However PCs have a solid chance with gaming becoming more and more embraced by the Linux community.
it’s worth remembering that this is just an xbox thing, the pc master race weirdness isn’t needed
edit, just to ask you to be better lemmy community, we’ve totally lost everything that was good about this place and now it’s just become a mirror of modern reddit.
i know this falls on deaf ears, and just causes more people to press the angry down button immediately, but all I ask is that you try to be better and foster a better community.
That’s dumb as shit, why does Microsoft even allow mature games on their platform if their platform doesn’t allow mature content. Sure, record blood and guts, but dont show a nipple or a penis unless it’s exploding in a shower of gore!!! What a fucking disgusting standard we have that gore and violence are celebrated but anything sexual, even simple nudity is some kind of felony offense.
