In SuperhotVR there are multiple acts of self harm; Shooting oneself in the head, jumping to your death. They make up a very very small amount of the game's content. After an update which made those scenes optional, the devs did another update and removed them all together. The VR community has surprisingly responded in a very mature and supportive manner.

LOL, just kidding. They're totally shitting themselves. https://old.reddit.com/r/virtualreality/comments/op018r/all_scenes_alluding_to_self_harm_will_be_removed/ https://steamcommunity.com/games/617830/announcements/detail/2992063678829322337

    I agree with keeping it a toggle, but also making it default to not having to do these things (especially) in VR

      Even then, couldn't having the player point a gun at their own head set something off in someone who wasn't entirely aware of any previous suicidal behavior? Seems like it could have a negative effect whether or not you make it a toggle. Or suicidal people turning it on because they're suicidal. Most of the time even in real life people try not to mention suicide or make jokes about it. It's something where bringing it up doesn't help anyone unless it's in a closely monitored setting.
