Via reddit, there's word on
Ars Technica confirming a practical, if profit-eating response from the
developer of Hotline Miami 2 to the game
being refused
classification in Australia. "If it ends up being not released in Australia,
just pirate it after release," designer Jonatan Söderström wrote in an email
reply. "No need to send us any money, just enjoy the game!" Devolver Digital
confirmed for Ars this is genuine, and
Fictional
Devolver CFO Fork Parker tweets a confirmation that this is legit as well.
"He’s said similar things in the past," a Devolver Digital PR rep told Ars. "And
yes, I can confirm he wants people to enjoy the game."

And what makes you the person to decide what those boundaries are? In what way are you qualified to lead human society as a whole?
I don't write laws that govern society and I'm confused as to why you would think that I do.
As I've said, society dictates what is and isn't allowable. With regards to the post I originally replied, rape is a "touchy subject" within society. I did not choose for this to be the case, although, I do posess something called empathy and I can imagine how such a crime affects its victims.
