Another day, another womp womp.

[@gamesjernst6563]

Okay, so I'm rewatching this video now, and I can see why this has been such a mixed bag. The video lacks focus, and my schizo rants definitely overtook the main focus of the video. I did mention in the video I was slightly drunk while recording, so that's prolly why the video is as schizoid as it is. That all to say. Im not sorry about it, and I'm not taking the video down. I'll just ensure not to get plastered again when I'm making a video lmaooo. Either way, I look forward to your comments, and thanks to the people choosing to stick around. At the end of the day, it's all pixles on a screen. Have a great day, just full of so much positivity, man!

It's not really about what was censored, really, more so the principal of it. I think you and me both can agree that censorship just inhibits artist creativity. Like I said in my video, even though this is a small bit of censorship, you give them an inch they'll take a mile since you're supporting their actions technically by buying the product.

[@Catman498]

For comparison sake… just a little background the original US release added lines to characters, expanded scenes, added new dialogue compared to Japanese version. So any censorship is happening more to the original US expanded script in the game and moving further away from Japanese script…. There is a bit that Vivian who was the butt of trans jokes in Japanese version (characters made fun of the the character pointing out “he” was a man) , but censored to be female in the original Western release, rather than trans. Apparently they have made the character trans again n remake… some of the old old jokes are there like in Japanese…. But it’s unclear how far they will handle the jokes about the character…. Could get a day one patch? ------ The original Japanese script translated to: In original Japanese: Hey, I see you got a cutie with you." "How about playing with us cutie?" "Yeah, you can do better than those 2 fogies." Christinu's reply is, "Wow, you are really forthright. I HATE that type of man. Buzz off." The Goombas say, "Huh. You're really stuck up. You're gonna wish you hadn't said that." ---- In expanded American version that added more dialogue and new scenes throughout the entire game: Voice: Hey! Hey, man! What's up? Who's the hottie you got there with you? [They notice the Goombas] Paragoomba: Wassup, baby? Why don't you hang with us for a while? We play real nice! Spiny Goomba: Man, what's a FINE-lookin' Goomba doin' with a tubby mustache man like that?!? Goombella: Oh, it is, like, SO sweet that you boys think I'm cute! Seriously! Yeah, guys like you make me feel like TOTALLY BARFING! Now get out of our way! Goomba: Ouch! That was cold! Paragoomba: What, you're too good for us? Come off it, sister! Spiny Goomba: Nobody zings us like that! Nobody! Let's get 'em! ---- The remake is roughly based on expanded American release but changes the focus of insults to Mario. Goomba: “Hey! Hey, man! What’s up? You think it’s cool to just waltz your way into OUR underground? Paragoomba: “Typical! You surface-level snobs are so stuck-up. ‘OoOoh, I get to see the sun! I like to breathe clean air! OoOoh!'” Spike Goomba: “Heh! Yeah! Come on over here, scruffy mustache man…We’re gonna teach you some proper manners…” Goombella: “Leave him alone! Can’t two academics and a world-famous hero wander the sewers of a port town in peace? If this is your usual greeting to visitors, then you must have learned it down here…because IT STINKS! Goomba: “Ouch! That was cold!” Paragoomba: “What, you’re too good for a fight?! If you ain’t lookin’ to tussle, then stay out of the sewer!” Spike Goomba: Nobody doesn’t start a fight with us! Nobody! Let’s get ’em

[@ProjectionProjects2.7182]

Okay? Dose he not have the right to point out the censorship or something? your acting like he was saying it was the worse thing ever and that no one should buy the game because dialogue was censored. I don't think he was making the biggest deal out of it.

[@jonahwebster6360]

@user-md7er6xe2z no, I don't believe he has the right to be making blatantly overblown statements. It's disingenuous and I'm bad faith to call something of this level "censorship". Definitionally it doesn't qualify either as censorship as the abject message is not changed. It's a classic clickbait tiny youtuber trying to strike it with mediocre hot takes.

[@ProjectionProjects2.7182]

​@@jonahwebster6360 Bad faith? How is what he is saying in bad faith? I don't think he is trying to deceive anyone, he is just stating his thoughts on the situation. Also how has the message not changed? Before the message of the joke was about how catcalling is bad and how you should not do it or else you will get your ass kicked. Now the joke has nothing to do with catcalling at all. That sounds like a change to me. Their is no "click bait" here. What the video says in the title is what he talks about in the video. The thumbnail also is not misleading ether so I have no idea what your talking about. To me what your saying about the video is overblown.

Yet another non paper mario fan telling actual paper mario fans how they're suppose to enjoy their game. Anyone else has noticed this trend?

[@gamesjernst6563]

I literally said multiple times in the video that I don't claim to understand paper Mario whatsoever, also, I thought it was pretty clear the main video was less about the quality of the game and more so of censorship potentially affecting future Nintendo projects. Especially seeing as Nintendo of America now is hiring Western translators, and those same Western translators changed Fire Emblem Echos to take out any and ALL gendered language. Clearly, Nintendo of America wants to push in propaganda, and the way they do that is through translation. One more time, its NOT WHAT WAS CENSORED THAT MATTERS, ITS THE FACT IT HAPPEND AT ALL, AKA THE PRINCIPLE OF IT.

[@samguy9934]

@@gamesjernst6563 My dude. Nintendo is in their right to alter and edit the content of their games. If its their company, their IPs, their games, its part of their free speech rights. You on the other hand, by accusing Nintendo of pushing propaganda and implicitly saying they should be boycott is actually an attempt at censorship.

[@ProjectionProjects2.7182]

I don't think Nintendo is ever going to get as bad as SBI but I agree that the censorship is not really great. Personally I think the original dialogue was better and funnier then what they changed it to. One thing I want to mention is that this is not the first time that Nintendo has censored or changed things thats related to topics that could potentially be considered political. They changed a few of the treasure names in the release of Pikmin 2 on Switch because they were referencing traditional gender roles. They changed the "Gem Star wife" and "Gem Star husband" Treasures to something else that I don't remember. I don't think the censorship is like a major deal breaker for buying the Thousand Year Door remake or anything but it is important to point out. Good video though, not sure why it has so many dislikes in comparison to likes. Hopefully my comment helps you get recommended more.

Are you actually serious? Like down to unironically thinking Stellar Blade was "censored"?

[@gamesjernst6563]

Technically, yes, steller blade was censored. Was it serious? No, but it still was. Again, it's the principle of it, not the amount of it.

[@kattlocke]

@@gamesjernst6563 Explain what you mean by "the principle of it". Because frankly, I found the garish oversexualisation to be worth correction (I assume that's what you're referring to. Let me know if I'm wrong lol). I think that comment and the overall video just seems to conflate regular instances of correction with censorship. I mean- if I made a project and then afterwards I didn't like a certain part so I changed it, would that be me "censoring" myself? No. I imagine it's probably the same with Stellar Blade and TTYD. Y'know? Basically, I think this opinion is really over-the-top and conspiratorial in a way that assumes malice when it's literally so simple and normal

Hit the nail on the head, I hate that every single piece of entertainment now has political shit in it. Haven’t gotten a new game in so long because of it. Only new game on ps5 I got was stellar blade because it was supposed to be free of politics. Now I know better.

[@gamesjernst6563]

I've been playing Steller Blade for a couple of days now. The game, despite the controversy, is great. It's honestly the first PS5 game I've played that's made me actually have fun, and it's beefy. I hope Shift UP is able to work something out with Sony to ensure the game gets uncensored. Most of the problems I've seen happen to good Playstation titles (recently Helldivers) has been because of Sony just being the worst company of all time and oddly acting like Nintendo back during the Wii days.

[@ridjenite]

Then good luck ever enjoying media. Because politics has been in almost every major game. From Star Wars and Star Trek to Marvel Comics, politics has been in every piece of media. Only now you're being told that it's a bad thing and not part of the story. Man, GamerGate really did you no favors making you hate media as a whole for being "woke" and "political."

​@@ProjectionProjects2.7182 The nature of his rant shows his intent. He calls it censorship without any proof of anyone barging into Nintendo and forcing the changes on the developers and localizers. He makes accusations that are purely moralist because he knows the changes were 100% organic and he has no leg to stand on. And moralist accusations/arguments directed at speech in general are in nature pro-censorship.

[@ProjectionProjects2.7182]

​@@samguy9934 ​I mean could you not argue that it is censorship though? They changed lines that showed off how cat calling is bad to more harmless lines that had nothing to do with cat calling. Your changing a thing that could be considered offensive, to something that is not. Why even change it in the first place? Also what do you mean by "the changes were 100% organic and he has no leg to stand on". Could I not argue that it being "organic" is just your subjective opinion though? You seem to think this new dialogue is more natural then the old dialogue. In what way is this new dialogue more natural or "organic" as you call it? In my opinion I thought the older lines were better as it more represented the shadiness of Roguport and the residents of the town. I mean, if you walked into a literal sewer and found random people down there that were not suppose to be there do you think they would act nice to you and just make fun of the fact that you came from the surface? To me at least the old dialogue feels more natural within the context of the world then what they replaced it with. Finally who said that someone had to barge into Nintendo and demand changes? Could Nintendo not just come to the choice to change it themselves? I rewatched the video and I don't see to much of an issue with it. He dose seem to go off on a bit of rant/tangent around the second half but at least he admits that it was silly in the video. Overall I don't think the video is as deep or as serious as your making it out to be and I found no evidence that he is pro censorship and anti free speech like your claiming.

The original ran at 60 fps and I will not accept such a major downgrade on a modern system for a remaster/remake.

Wasn't back then, isn't right now and they'd laugh in the face of anyone trying to argue that someone who is biologically male can be an actual woman (and this response is the same quite literally everywhere in the world other than the US and Europe, aka white imperialist colonialists trying to force their own petty views on the rest of the world once more.
