I don't think you understand that it's not for porn sake, these aren't all hot coffee scenes and such. It sounds like actors had to rape and harm people for dramatic effect, like you'd see on TV (e.g. Game of Thrones comes to mind). While it's not really my cup of tea either, I think it can certainly amp up the tension and suspense. Far from pointless.

The problem in this case is a matter of disclosure; Video Game companies are not used to walking the same thin line with actors as TV and Movie producers (who still haven't fully grasped it either but have gotten better, e.g. having consent coaches on staff and such).

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
