Definitely approve of less sex scenes in videogames (every videogame character I play becomes an asexual, because I have no interest in getting my videogame-man to videogame-plow the videogame-woman -- I'm just here for the combos, folks), and I would like a moratorium on depiction of sexual violence in basically all media until directors at least figure out not to shoot it like fetish porn.
As a strange personal anecdote (which may just be me snitching on myself really hard, but whatever) I've been in the room with people as they just casually watched hardcore pornography (which I still find baffling -- that there are people who will just, like, watch porn with their friend-group), and somehow that was less awkward than watching a movie with those same friends that had an unexpected sex scene. I'm genuinely not sure what to make of that.
Having my whole party constantly trying to fuck me did not enhance Baldur's Gate 3 in any way. Jesus people I'm a little more worried about the tadpole in my head than the fact that you're horny. You've got a tent if you need release that badly
Sex scenes in video games can be some of the worst things imaginable. Replaying Cyberpunk not too long ago I had to mute and look away during the scene with Alt because it made me so unbelievably uncomfortable. Like there's a bit of dysphoria, a bit of cringe, and a bit of "oh god please stop." It's also been a long road of video game sex scenes just being terribly done, models just can't come together like that and not clip. They're also not going to put in the effort that a porn game does for the animations because they're not trying to make porn.
I've defs watched porn with friends in the case of background noise or laughing at some weird plot or costuming. Like, the style of bad acting and writing in that stuff can be genuinely entertainingly bad.

Apparently they were extra horned up due to a glitch lol
Well, there's your problem.

When I was a teenager I liked to sometimes randomly put hentai audio on my ipod so I could have it randomly pop up and make my friends react. But also sometimes back then the dubs (Nothing explicit, but it's still clips from porn, also a girl jumps from a roof) were just something totally unhinged and hilarious all on their own.

Oh my god one time my friends and I watched this Peter Pan porno and it was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen. It was hilarious.
