Thank guys for helping me i am grate full the world has people like Catholics and nice people
 
From my mere cursory knowledge of Fortnight, it is not porn. Now, should people out in the world dress like the avatars in the game? No. But it is definitely not porn.
 
You need to take these issues to an adult you trust, like a parent or a priest. It’s okay that you asked, but I don’t think asking strangers on the internet is a good thing for you
 
Your parents likely have rules that are tied to ratings.

I’d imagine they do not want you watching R rated movies nor playing Mature rated games. I’d imagine they would not spend $60 on a game that was rated “Mature”.

This game is rated for ages 12 and up, so, you can rest assured it does not contain pornography.

That might not happen. It is best to cut this vice at the start, but the methods need to be carefully chosen.
 
OP, I moved your thread to the Family Life forum where subjects of this nature can be discussed.
 
Would I be able to play it if it gives me or another person intrusive thoughts

I’d say that depends on exactly what you mean by intrusive thoughts. I could get intrusive thoughts by things I see on a walk, that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t go on walks or need to avoid them. I am able to shut doen those thoughts before they take off.
 
I mean I might intrusive thoughts about fortnite becuase they made the characters inappropriately dressed which might trigger intrusive thoughts
 
One cannot stop the birds from flying overhead.

One can stop the birds from making a nest in their hair.

We are to be masters of our bodies, to take every thought captive in obedience to Christ.

St Paul teaches is that this is like athletics, we have to train our selves, push through the pain of resisting temptations. You were given the gifts to do this at Baptism and they were strengthened at your Confirmation. I hope you are involved with your parish Youth Group. Iron sharpens iron!!

Sit down and read St Paul’s amazing letters, read them all but right now 2 Corinthians 10 is worth some contemplation. Then read his letter to Timothy.

If you have intrusive thoughts you need to be under the care of a mental health professional. Tell your parents about your intrusive thoughts and your obsessing about this game and it also sounds like you are having anxiety/obsessing over what your brother “might” be doing with absolutely no evidence. These behaviors need attention.

It’s very hard for me to tell my parents about intrusive thoughts I get stressed, but I do know a way of getting rid of these thoughts for a bit but they just come back will they stay with me forever
 
It is not your place to police your brother’s masturbation habits. Your father has that job and it sounds like he is doing it, so my advice is for you to butt out, concern yourself with your own habits, and let your father parent your brother.

I only ask because you seem really young and I think you need to discuss this stuff with your parents and not anonymous strangers on the internet.

This, 1000 times.

OP, you need to be talking to your father and your priest about these issues. If you are truly having intrusive thoughts, then it might help also to talk to a counselor, but given how young you sound, sometimes a lot of confusion is just part of growing up. In any event, this whole topic is not appropriate to be discussing with strangers on the Internet, largely because you seem very young. Muting this topic now. Good luck and God bless.

Clearly this is a case of your brother getting nervous because he knows what your reaction to the video game will be. I play this game too and I see nothing wrong with it.
