Most gamers live a modern sedentary lifestyle, not one where they have to hunt and kill small animals to survive. This may make some a bit [[squick]]ed when they get meat from killing a monster or dangerous animal in a game. This is a common [[Randomly Drops|drop]] in many games and is understandable when your character or party is partaking in a long adventure (although occasionally unsavoury—zombies that drop sausages? Ew.)
Video games have a tendency to confuse hunters with butchers, something that would save a lot of time in reality if it could be done in such a way. Thing is, most gamers live a modern sedentary lifestyle, not one where they have to hunt and kill small animals to survive. This may make some a bit [[squick]]ed when they get meat from killing a monster or dangerous animal in a game. This is a common [[Randomly Drops|drop]] in many games and is understandable when your character or party is partaking in a long adventure (although occasionally unsavoury—zombies that drop sausages? Ew.)


However, some instances have higher squick potential than others... if the monster in question was [[Let's Meet the Meat|possibly sapient]] or [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|a transformed human]], for example. Or if it is simply from animals which most people wouldn't see as all that tasty... such as [[Giant Spider|giant spiders]] or [[Big Creepy-Crawlies|cockroaches]]. Also, sometimes one wonders how you got pork from a wolf... did you rummage its stomach after cutting it apart? Or an egg from a hawk, did you rip that out of her? And don't even get us started with [[Video Game Stealing]] before you kill them.
