I don't think the "mature side" means only sex, violence or other "realities". For me, it means a complex, engaging, unforgettable story and much more.
Realities of war? Besides combat, explosions, piles of dead, mutilated corpses and pools of blood? What do you mean?

If the writer is able to implement it tactfully into a game and shows the horrors those issues stand for, then why not?

And if he failed to implement it tactfully? I am not sure anybody should attempt to "tactfully" or otherwise implement a child rape in a
game. Or any rape. I protest.
