Heavy Rain (2010) is a psychological thriller video game developed by Quantic Dream and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. The game follows the story of four characters as they attempt to uncover the identity of the Origami Killer, a serial killer who uses extended periods of rainfall to drown his victims.
The game has been praised for its gripping story and intense atmosphere, but it has also been criticized for its explicit sexual content. In particular, the game features several scenes of nudity and sexual activity, which some players have found to be too graphic and inappropriate.
The most controversial sexual moment in Heavy Rain occurs when the player takes control of the character Ethan Mars. In this scene, Ethan is in a hotel room with Madison Paige, a journalist who is helping him investigate the Origami Killer. The two characters are shown in a passionate embrace, and the player is given the option to take the scene further and engage in a sexual act.
This scene has been the subject of much debate, with some players arguing that it is too explicit and unnecessary, while others have argued that it is an important part of the story and adds to the game's atmosphere.
Regardless of one's opinion on the matter, it is clear that Heavy Rain is not a game for the faint of heart. The game contains several explicit sexual moments, and players should be aware of this before they decide to play.
Heavy rain is more like a movie than a video game. There are two scenes that include sexuality/nudity. A man and a women start to have sex while kissing and unbuckling clothing. The scene fades before anything actually happens. The other scene is where character gets held at gunpoint and forced to remove clothes. You, the player can decide if you do this, or not. Breast nudity is briefly shown before the scene ends.
There is a scene of a man taking a shower in which you can see his butt.
A man enters a seedy hotel room used for prostitution (the mother of one of the victims) and is asked to leave money on the table before the "act," which they do not commit.
A woman takes a shower, we see her breasts and butt, this can be avoided by choosing not to shower.
The game contains a prompt-based love scene (kissing and rubbing) in which players match on-screen cues to angle characters' mouths, remove shirts and blouses, unhook bras, and lower to the floor; a woman briefly appears topless amidst the dark shadows and heavy breathing. Actual sex is never depicted as the camera fades to black. The player is able to avoid this scene.
A man makes a women striptease at gunpoint. This is not prolonged in any way, and the player can either choose to agree or disagree. If you agree you see a flash of a breast before the scene changes.
One scene features the player talking to a man watching a cartoon on TV, two women on the other end of the couch are kissing each other until they're asked to leave.
Some female characters wear revealing clothing.
There's a scene in which a female character takes a shower and you see her breasts, however at the end of the scene she wakes up and she'd been dreaming.
