Because it’s a case of if you do this you will stiffle the artistic integrity of the team that worked hard on it. If you don’t like swearing there are plenty of options for you but don’t think you’ll ever be able to boot up a game of GTA or a Quentin Tarantino movie and have a smut free experience.
I’m a parent to I don’t want to expose my kids to swearing I don’t think they are old enough to handle it but the last thing I want is a profanity filter on media content I want to experience rdr2 with swearing in tact not a watered down Disney version life is hard most games depict swearing appropriately in my eyes.
As a parent I simply use the available parental controls and everyone is happy little ones are not exposed and when they are in bed the content I want to view and play is at my fingertips.
There’s been some research into ai that can block slurs in online play and that’s one thing constant abuse from a real person directed at you is way worse than Samuel Jackson talking about big Mac’s in France.
Tv did it for years as the article stated well that’s not quite right maybe tv works different where I love but some extremely graphic scenes might be cut from scarface as an example overall swearing is in the movie still but most made for tv content is not interesting and with the rise of Netflix and HBO podcasting and decline of tv and radio most people agree they don’t want a commercialised tv experience anymore.
