Well, nudity is a question of views and so on.
Gore, on the other hand, is a known issue with some people.
If I had to choose one thing to be “point of contention” in a game it would be gore, not nudity. There is no known “natural triggered” reaction to nudity. Gore on the other hand does have a not uncommon condition to be triggering physiological responses.
It would be above “ideological issues” to regulate the show of gore more than nudity. On top of that, it is hard to search what GDC video the guys are talking about it, but there was 3 or 4 panels talking about how nudity is different in each place. So guys had to cover butts on one place, butts were fine but boobs not in another, then anything but genitals can be shown in another, then you “should not cover” in another. It is weird. But gore is gore.
However, myself ? I welcome both very much. Just wondered why does most NPCs showing up in my tavern, and spawning around Sepermeru are so nude. Seriously, it is not a problem with nudity, but it is strange that you put up a bar in the middle of the snowy peaks of the north, and most NPCs are showing up almost naked.
Gore, on the other hand, no issues there:
