Put simply (for adults):
It’s not _whether_ certain content is present, it’s _why_.

Honestly, “why” doesn’t matter much to me either. To an adult, it really is just a game. When I was in high school/college I played hours of Goldeneye — a game where you run around a maze and shoot/detonate your friends with various landmines, rocket launchers and automatic weapon.

I harbored no more desire to actually shoot my friends than I would to actually shoot a policeman, carjack someone, or rape a hooker from playing GTA. Its a game — really nothing more than escapist entertainment.
