It's not just the slider, I was honestly more peeved that they removed the pasties innerwear (for classic pso2, where it all began). Because now you are obligated to buy a near similar innerwear, and those things cost a lot, just to make it so it doesnt look like they are wearing some weird innerwear messing up the basewear and outerwear. While it might seem like it's a minimal thing, it plays a part of a bigger picture going forward, like them or hate them, removal of mini outfits (i personally dont like them because you have to waste salon ticket changing head size because otherwise it looks terrible), the change from Male/female to type 1 and type 2 (that wouldve normally worked fine if it was to casts only MAYBE, but i digress), these are the surface level things i took immediate notice, and who knows what else is out there in the form of western censorship.
@Zeomantic
@Zeomantic 8 күн бұрын
I think part of that stems from cultural differences in terms of how Japan and the west see that stuff. Japan is cool girls showing a bunch of skin while not being too fond of blood and gore in their media. Meanwhile over here in the west, it's more or less the opposite. The other stuff is a weird canary in a coalmine. This reminds me of the activist groups that went after Midway back in the day with Mortal Kombat, but this time the craziness is coming form within.

Since you brought up the height restrictions, I'm kinda thankful Global has them knowing some of the players 😂 but could care less if they were removed eventually, same with some of the censorship in this game.

You're probably right given the degeneracy of this community. I think the omission of the bathhouse scene in episode 4 is widely regarded as a mercy. I'm guessing they initially planned to include it when the voiceover lines were being recorded, then it was cut at the last minute. That would explain their existence.

Yup! And a lot of games are being censored to conform to Chinese standards to be sold over there.

Naturally, game companies will want a piece of that pie, which means playing ball with their rules. Of course, there's more to it.

I feel like Play PSO2's comment was shooting for a "Wendy's" style vibe. However, it came off poorly and was picked up by others who took advantage of the situation. While I do agree that PSO2 has an amazing character customization, it has areas that REALLY need improvement. Areas such as the availability of color passes, the pricing of AC Scratch outfits and accessories, and why some poses don't work right.

I love character creators and I largely only play adventurous games that allow me to make my own character. In some games I recreate the closest version of myself but that's a rarity as most of the time I create unique separate entities from myself. I can't stand having to play a game as someone who's already created for me, their story. However the current generation of character creators, in the "west", are abhorrent in my eyes. You are not allowed to create feminine beauty, muscle guys are still okay, because you not allowed to actually identify feminine characteristics. Body types, pronouns, and needlessly pandering to a small minority of people who mutilated their own bodies, make genuine character creation difficult. The problem with keep on keeping on is that eventually they'll (the woke) come for you and demand your submission. Right now your not allowed to have shapely assets, but next you must clap for your new oppressors who will censor you for your benefit.

Yeah there is no "both sides" with DEI. DEI is basically a lie. There is a way to represent, and then there is literally taking something and blowing it out of proportions. Body positivity? Oh yeah, no one wants to be seen as fat but there ya go. Or making a character white instead of black. "Oh that's racist!" No, no it's not. It's just natural. What the character creation thing for the new Dragon Age is just straight up BS. It was not good. Just more of this awful DEI stuff to pander to people whom were never told NO.

I think the pendulum is starting to swing the other way, at least in Japan. Especially now that the head honcho at SBI said the quiet part out loud that their goal is to put the game industry to the torch. More companies are starting to tell them to kick rocks. I think the best way for these companies to preserve a more authentic version of their product overseas, they shouldn't farm things out to 3rd party companies that don't have the same values.

Fun part is that Japan censors western releases of their own games, when some games that made by other countries (where Japan releases their censored games) have all the stuff they usually censor and even more sometimes (and I'm not talking about H-games) which brings the question - why they even doing this? It feels more like a mock, rather than necessity. I don't care about height slider in PSO2, I just want them to bring back old boob physics :P

There is valid reasons for and against the height slider limit, some people are just naturally shorter, and they just want to be able to play as themselves, some people like myself just met want it for Lore Reasons, just making my character short to show what she looked like when she was younger, and never use it again, I would also like it for decoys, just like how there are those three children in central City, you could do something similar in your creative space. But I also get it from the other point of view, that with how weird some people can be, and with all the outfits that we have it, to not even give them access to be able to do it, as we have seen what some people do with accessories.
