Survey Finds Level Of Naked Breasts In Dante's Inferno "Excessive"

In a recent survey completed by our staff, it was found that most consider the amount of naked breasts in Dante's Inferno to border on "excessive".
For those who do not know, Dante's Inferno, the game and not the 13th century book, has an inordinate number of breasts in it, populating the screen at every opportunity.
"I can handle the demented prostitutes who have serpent tentacles coming out of their [censored], but seriously it is only occasionally. But with the breasts, I mean they are everywhere. Whoever made that game has issues with their mother, I kid you not," said one respondent.
"When I play GTA 4, I didn't have to worry about my wife walking in on me but with Dante's Inferno, seriously, I feel like I am watching a porno. How do I explain this game to my wife when unbaptized babies come out of Cleopatra's nipples and scurry along her immense breasts? That is a conversation I don't want to have," said another respondent who stated the game put him off the whole journey through hell genre.
The game involves Dante's effort to save his beloved Beatrice while he is thrown up on by gluttons, grabbed by prostitutes and tormented in a variety of ways that typically involve breasts moving hypnotically around him.
A expert in the original Dante's Inferno commented after playing the game that while the depiction of hell is somewhat different from the original book, the level of breasts is consistent, if not less than what the book had.
"In the Middle Ages, breasts were thought about, talked about and even drawn at every opportunity. Unlike today when sexualization is no longer done for the purpose of selling goods, the Middle Ages was rife with topless women depicted everywhere, including literature at the time. I commend the makers of the game for going against the grain that we see in media. Personally, I think it may be about time we saw more topless women in media and I hope this game leads to the same in movies, of which nudity is almost unheard of."
In an effort to understand why Dante's Inferno needs so many breasts in it, the staff here will continue to play the game in a dark room with the door locked.
