redscrew Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 The late 1800's had school systems growing all over the country and it became a thing of the norm through the Elementary Education Act 1880. Above is an image of what a 1880's classroom looked like. I am just wondering if maybe we will actually see any school settings and kids in the game. Like I think it would be cool to actually see a group of kids go into a building early morning and leave in the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glopez Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Honestly, it would be one of those things that is not needed. Like sure it would be cool for like a second but then they would have to deal with people raging over kids getting killed in RDR2. You know someone will go on a kid killing spree. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool idea, but nah, it just wouldn't work in this kind of game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RON Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 A game with this level of violence? That is like the folks who make Call of Duty games introducing child bombers. Let's be real. This is not a good idea no matter what way you spin it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHHorse Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I saw this the other day and showed it to my friend. The first thing he jumped to was shooting up schools. Not saying he is a sick guy but I don't think the media helps things by making sure EVERYONE knows kids were killed in a school shooting. But no, no we will not see them.

SNAK3S Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I don't think there will be many just because of the violence level of the game. They may have some kids part of missions but that is about it. If they had schools with kids, then people would go around killing them. You know they would.

D3x Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 LOL Video games are already being targeted for influences violence on kids. This is not something that needs to be in the game nor will be. Sure, we will probably see a school or two but there will NOT be children in it unless it is for a cut scene. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tadp0le Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 A friend of mine mentioned this about GTA and he said they should have kids and teens in it. I just laughed at him. He goes "I wasn't telling a joke". I guess some people don't think fully grasp what that would lead to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BelleStarr Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I genuinely have not noticed the lack of children in video games. ????It never crosses my mind, but if they were added, it would be a bad idea for any 18+ video game that involves killing (often innocent) NPCs. As others have said, they would be deeply criticised and shut down by the media. People already have a problem with video games and their violence so throwing children into the mix isn't a good idea.

ChrisCr0ss Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Unless a game was run on PC and not sold on a gaming platformer like Steam, you will never see kids in video games where the player can kill them. The devs alone would get a lot of backlash and the console maker/brand would be in some pretty hot water for accepting the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen some pretty intense PC games with very graphic things either in the games or hinted at in the games but this is something that is a major no-no for the mainstream.

Benjo Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Anyone hear about that game that was due for release next month where you can play as a school shooter? Think it's Russian or something and it's been cancelled now but seriously, like what goes through peoples' minds. Like maybe, MAYBE someone might think let's make a game where you can shoot up a school and then the thought is gone in less than a second, but this game went all the way through dev and into alpha and it was still cool with them.

CMcC Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 So now that Kids have been confirmed in the game. How will this be addressed? There’s no way you’re going to be able to kill children. They’ll never allow it. So will they be invincible? And if so, what does that mean for the sense of realism that R* is going for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine they play it off by maybe having Arthur say something when you try to shoot a kid. Similar to when you tried to buy a hooker with John. He just declined every time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveSpeek Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 That would likely be the route they go. I mean you can aim at a kid but it won't allow you to actually pull the trigger. It makes the most sense. I don't think we will see too many kids running around but the ones that are will need to be protected. Allowing us to still shoot them and not take damage still lets us shoot them regardless and that won't be viewed well. I would rather Arthur say something like "He's just a kid." or "Shooting a little girl, I can't do that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you could grenade them and they would essentially die. Not sure how they would handle that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmZ Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Well... I would expect there to be dynamite so they must have some kind of protection set for kids. If they play it the same way as in GTA, then you could kill kids... On purpose or by mistake. It is just something they have to make sure isn't in the game at all. I am not bothered by how they end up doing it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have at least let us hog time them lol Then again, people would just take that the wrong way. Either way, glad they won't be being used as target practice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
