SUPERHOT VR's Story was Removed. What?

But the thing that really disturbs me is the artistic sanitization. SUPERHOT VR was a work that had disturbing elements. It had the potential to make people uncomfortable. It disgusts me to see things like “discomfort” treated as objectively harmful in art. A self-destructive spiral leading to suicide is disturbing and uncomfortable, but I also found it to be a profound experience. It’s good to consider and interact with discomfort! The death of an unnamed fictional character is not so obscene that it cannot be allowed to be depicted, no matter how immersive the depiction is. Is it okay for these stories to exist? The answer to this question must be yes, but with the SUPERHOT VR cuts, someone is clumsily trying to answer no.
