If people are going to act out their game fantasies in real life, rape isn't necesarily the worst one.
Doom has been a favorite before... just lucky those guys wern't skilled with a chainsaw, and used guns instead. GTA has chainsaws, too. Or even some basic Ninja game, like Tenchu; I doubt sneaking up behind people with a sword and cutting their throats will go down well in the media, either.
Fact is, psychos are going to exist, games or not. They always have. Things like this have been common long before media existed. And even in countries where this media is still absent (Afghanistan, African countries), rape is a massive problem. Banning some nerds from jerking off in a particular way won't really change anything. If anything, they'll get bored with no porn left, and start to think of other ways to get their rocks off... who knows what they'll come up with...
Of course, clubs like from that school that exist and rape women, they arn't at all connected to pervert gaming. That is just plain criminal illegal. The only reason people connect clubs like that to things like this is they're activists trying to put some weight in their swing. This won't help reality in any way. In fact, it'd damage their cause; trying to tell people games are responsible for problematic communities which is complete bullshit; it will divert effort to try and fix insignificant problems where it should be being used to catch real criminals.
The eternal Saint is calling, through the ages she has told. The ages have not listened; the will of faith has grown old…
For forever she will wander, for forever she withholds; the Demon King is on his way, you’d best not be learned untold…
