The lead developers of the highly anticipated life simulation game, inZOI, recently engaged with fans to clarify some intriguing aspects of gameplay, particularly around sensitive topics like sexual intercourse. When probed about this feature, the assistant director provided a response that left much to the imagination. Without directly mentioning "sex," the director implied that if a male and female ZOI character were to go to bed together, the intention would be to create offspring. However, the visual representation of this act would be left up to the player's interpretation.
Perhaps that’s exactly what’s happening, but not at the level everyone expected.
This leaves fans wondering whether inZOI will handle these scenes similarly to The Sims series, with implied actions and censorship, or if it will introduce a novel approach to depicting such interactions.
Another topic of interest was the choice to have ZOIs shower in towels rather than using pixelated censorship. The developers explained that this decision aligns better with the game's cartoonish graphics, as pixelation could appear overly sexualized in a more realistic visual style. They also disclosed a technical issue where pixelated censorship failed to appear in mirror reflections when a naked ZOI approached, further justifying their choice.
For those seeking clarity, the game's ESRB rating of T (for teens) and the expected PEGI 12 rating provide some insight. These ratings mirror those assigned to The Sims 4, suggesting a similar level of content moderation and censorship.
