My real account @[email protected]. Also, It’s just a game. Shane is a depressed alcoholic in this game If you don’t know. It’s normal according to game because you got 10 hearts in game with him. Which is equal to love.
Oooh glad I switched accounts because I knew someone would show up to defend this. So much worse that you’re the OP and mod.
Firstly: this post appears outside of this community and without any context (no matter how good) this can trigger people who had to endure SV like this. This alone disqualifies this post. I need you to understand that posts like these can absolutely wreck someones day and pose a barrier to the site and lemmy as a whole. So best case: it’s ableist to put it up.
Secondly: the fact that your first line of defense is “it’s just a game” makes me want to shoot you. It’s just a comment.
Thirdly: Shane being a depressed alcoholic does not give him a pass to SA people?? And if he’s been drinking even though he’s an alcoholic all the more reason to step out of the situation. How is pointing out that this is not just a comic about SA but about an alcoholic relapsing and then SA’ing helping your argument? “oh he’s been down lately, lets let this one slide”? More r*pe apologia.
Fourthly: Getting a bouquet of flowers a couple days ago does not constitute consent to suddenly grapple someone tight and forcibly make out with them. Famously in stardew valley you aren’t dating until after the ten heart event. There’s nothing that could even be remotely interpreted as consent to suddenly be kissed. He has demonstrated on his very first date that he does not care about personal boundaries. Just to be clear you have to make your intent clear before you kiss someone even when you’re dating but in a game one could charitably interpret that he made his intent clear with a simple gesture that is already well-established as showing intent but is too subtle to explicitly render.
Fifthly: Why the guilty conscience? Why the excuse? “oh i just had one too many”, either you had consent or you didn’t and if you didn’t it’s SA.
edit: this man knows he did wrong. Why don’t you?
This comic and especially your defense reeks of incel. Stardew valley’s relationship mechanics are known to be very problematic, this scene is one of the reasons why.
No Problem. I know it can trigger someone because it have no context. I am not saying People should touch other without their consent. You can shoot me for saying it’s a game. Actually, It’s a storyline/cutscene in Stardew Valley. Player(You) already have a good relation with him at 8 hearts. Also, I don’t love Shane either. He is asshole in the start of game to player. But later you found out he was going to commit sucide.
Also don’t blame me for relationship blame concerendape for this.
One more why would one even gain 10 heart with Shane if you don’t want to marry him in game and be nice with him at first place. It’s just game mechanics in the end. Because it’s kinda predefined in game. That you will marry him if you already gained 9 or 10 heart with him.
100% correct and it’s also an account made today. This is sus as fuck.

And just to be clear:
No consent = SA. No excuses.

Here’s that cutscene for more context.
I agree with you No Consent = SA
