I'm always surprised when I see articles like this sporadically come up.

These days you can mold games into whatever you want them to be with mods. It's a deliberate action by the consumer and fits right in with rule 34 content.

There's also a lot of bigger targets out there for adult content like Skyrim and the Sims.

Why surprised? Capcom needs to say something because their game was involved, but they don't have anything really to say, so they article fluffs it up a bit.

It baits rage, gets clicks, and ultimately is inconsequential.

I don't think they really need to say anything is my point. It would be like Mojang commenting about gun mods for Minecraft

They make a game that's popular in tournaments, and this mod was used at a tournament. So I think they have an obligation here to say something.

This mod wasn't "used at a tournament". An online tournament was held, and the guy running the Twitch stream was using SF6's spectate feature to display the match. Said guy had a naked mod installed. None of the tournament contestants were using mods (or if they were, said mods didn't cause any issues).
