You would think they would learn from New World. Purposely creating “ugly” characters like the new Mortal Kombat games is such an odd decision. What is woke about covering up woman and telling them they can’t be sexy? Sounds 1950 religious puritan to me…
I can’t tell you have many bad reviews I have seen of new world because “woman look like men” and “characters are ugly and I don’t care about them”. That game tanked quick.
They have also changed Arthetine’s Sand Whiskey to an energy drink called “Crimson Bull” which is an obvious parody of Red Bull. That was a stupid thing to localize and censor since there are plenty of other alcoholic beverage items in the game and it hurts what little lore this game has.
If the skins are censored compared to the KR version then it’s a conscious decisions they’re making to lose out on tens of millions of dollars in revenue.
My only concern is that already released skins might get changed in the future
i dont want to spend money on a skin i like for it to then get changed/censored few weeks or months later.
If its already changed beforehand and i dont like it i simply dont buy it.
Calling these minor changes “censorship” and comparing it to China? That’s about as ridiculous as you cant get. What a farce this discussion is on your end. How is choosing the translation “rapport” instead of “affinity” censoring anything? Seriosuly dude, get real here.
It’s funny because games with a lot of fashion customization tend to have much larger female player bases than games without. Look at FFXIV, plenty of “sexy” outfits, even RP brothels and the playerbase is probably close to 50/50 male/female.
Puritans are all “think about the women” while most women want these outfits as they are and we know that because they play games that allow it more
They literally did this in the loading screen too, it looks horrible you can see the leotard and garter belt clip through the ‘’ pants ‘’.
They just went in and painted the skin bellow the neck black it looks horrible and very clearly censored…
It’s like wearing the original costume outside another one it’s just lazily done and it’s the actual loading screen…
I don’t understand why they didn’t just use another costume instead of manually going in and putting resources into censoring a skin like this -_-.
It’s just really poorly done too…
Just why omg, are they going to censor every skin in this game? we wont have any skin at all if they censor, ppl who were looking forward for those sexy skins on the other versions wont buy at all any censor version of the same skin, this doesnt make any sense
they won’t, because objectifying men is and has always been perfectly fine. Heck in my over 40 years of life i’ve witnessed women objectifying men just as much as the other way around, if not more so. We all do it, for some reason society just decided that men should take the blame for it while women get a free pass, instead of admitting that we as a species are incredibly superficial in general and across all aspects of life.
@Roxx statement why the “146895” topic got removed? It included valuable and good feedback Is it because of the comments about Twitch “rules” that are in conflict of the ridiculous censorship in the game?
To everyone with the nonsense “Go watch porn” type replies.
It is not about booba. It is about censorship. Censorship is a slippery slope. When you allow governments and corporations to dictate what can and can’t be seen, what can and can’t be said…That’s when you end up with Authoritarian Nazi Dictatorships. This has been proven through history a hundred times over. Learn your fucking lesson and stop pretending censorship isn’t a big deal.
I don’t know who is in charge of this part - amazon or smilegate, but you guys are dropping the ball. I couldn’t even say the phrase, I forget what it was, but it was like ‘Yo bro’ without automated censorship preventing me from posting the message, and it was regarding t3 honing rates at 1385. I get that you might want to censor SOME things, such as hard R, but you’re gonna lose players if you keep being so overzealous. Can’t even say the word Ukraine? Are you people insane? What’s the purpose in having a chat if you can’t even talk about world events without getting censored? This is a NA release. Respect American principles such as freedom of speech. You’re just another example of what’s wrong with the internet nowadays.
