I think it's more that hysterical moral guardians and corporate boobs only see the traditionally casino-like superficial imagery of cards, dice, spades, clubs, slots, etc. and instantly knee-jerk themselves into declaring it "immoral" without actually bothering to take the twelve seconds required to experience the gameplay. At which point they would immediately realize that they are wrong.

This is Kyle's Mom's version of only reading the headline, or not bothering to look beyond the dust jacket and only screeching about imaginary content that exists only inside their own assumptions and based purely on the picture on the cover.

Speaking of only reading the headline, I love me some corporate boobs.

No HR don't allow enjoyment of corporate boobs. They kick you out at the office for that kind of thing.

Unless you are the manager your obviously, oh ironically you work in the games industry.
