I had to noodle on this one for a while and ask around. I think, and this is only a guess, that this might be "consensual non-consent", which is a role play of sexual assault.

  • Im addicted to general zero hour, you can buy the cnc collection on steam and it runs fine.

    I wish EA wasn't so shit at programming, it crashes if you minimize the window. Or has a mismatch if theres to many units on the ground.

    Theres mods to fix issues, but i cant figure out how to make it work under wine.

    EA also open sourced the code and people are working on fixing bugs

    It's not necessarily role play of assault, though it can be that. It can also mean that blanket consent has been given ahead of time, and so the subject is unaware of what may happen to them or when, and by the nature of it can't give specific consent for any particular action. It can have to do with pushing/exploring boundaries, a power dynamic kink, or just enjoying the element of surprise, among others.

    If you're doing it right, consent can be withdrawn at any time via a pre-established non-verbal signal and/or safeword, and any bondage equipment will have safety releases.

    e: In case it's unclear, I just mean that the definition is more broad than that. I don't think there's anything wrong with role-playing assault.

    My partners into it. I'm into BDSM and it threw me off for a while. I think of it like the most extreme version of a sub/ dom sex play with roleplay. It's definitely something that requires a whole lot of forethought, communication, and most of all, CONSENT.
