The game Scum on Steam aims to be a realistic simulation. The new feature is penis length. But those who want to shine there pay with losses in other values. Other highlights of the new update “Wild Hunter” are banjos and heads on spikes.
Customizable penises in video games are slowly becoming acceptable. Conan Exiles made them popular. The new update of the Steam hit Scum, “Wild Hunter,” returns to nature. This also includes exposed genitals.
This is how Scum introduces penises: As the developers announced, there is now a slider for “penis size” in the character creation of Scum.
Players start with 10 centimeters and can lower the slider to 2.5 centimeters or increase it to 20 centimeters.
This is the joke: The slider is treated like a real value. If you want a bigger penis, you have to forego points in stamina or one of the other values.
Those who can live with a smaller friend can pump up their muscles with the freed points.
Owners of a founder package receive an additional 5 centimeters.
This is also in the update: The update is not just limited to penises. Overall, the trend in the latest update is “Back to Nature.”
Other features include:
- Shooting arrows and bows
- Bears and goats that can be hunted, killed, and further processed
- Heads on stakes
- And musical instruments like harmonica, banjo, or guitar
The update is already live on Steam.
Targeted Taboos and Realism as Core Brand
This is behind it: Scum has made a kind of absurd realism its banner. It seems to be the core of the brand to attract attention through breaking taboos and shocks.
With this philosophy, the Croatian development studio “Croteam” fits well into the concept of publisher Devolver Digital. They have made a name for themselves through eccentric appearances at fairs or social media, but have also succeeded with solid to outstanding games.
Once, however, things went wrong: The developers oriented themselves for tattoos on “real prison tattoos” and incorporated Nazi symbols into Scum, which then had to be removed from the game.
Additionally, they rely on masks made of human skin or heart attacks when players become too fat:
