![]() ![]() Now that gaming has become so big, some things that were common and okay from before seem very uncommon. They would lynch the game design team.I agree. I mean can you imagine this in a Bioware game today? I think not, the tumblr shitstorm would be apocalyptic. ![]() Take Bioware before David Gaylord and the E.A. Before the PC and gamer feminist movement there where a lot of Western games with hyper sexualized female characters. It's true that there aren't a lot of games like that in NA, but lets not kid ourselves and pretend that creepy sexualization is some kind of Japanese cultural phenomenon. So culturally, there's a huge difference between Japan, and in this instance, North America. And they're rare because it's not part of the Western game culture, especially North America. You probably won't be able to name a lot because that kind of thing barely has an existence overseas. Name me games in the West that have Nintendo involved that would have the mechanic of petting 2D human characters. Just so you know, there's no way you can prove to me that stroking people's heads is both culturally inappropriate and culturally unknown, when you have Pokemon Amie and Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus.īecause of (3) and (4), you can't claim (5). "Western game culture" with the overall (4) "culture" of "North America". (3) First of, you're making a false equivalence here. We do have examples of games that have introduced features like touching characters, like Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus (you can touch all over their body) and again, Pokemon Amie, in which Nintendo was involved, and had the above content (in which you can touch their whole body). The issue is, there's no relevance in these specific examples you ask me of. You obviously know that and you also obviously know that there's a game in which Nintendo is involved, called Pokemon, (2) which has a feature to touch a Pokemon all over their body, including their crotch and chest area for humanoid and non-humanoid characters. (1) You are completely right that there is no game in which Nintendo is involved that has "human petting". That is why I am going to tell you why you are right and why that is irrelevant. (5) So culturally, there's a huge difference between Japan, and in this instance, North America.You are completely right. And they're rare because it's not part of (3) the Western game culture, (4) especially North America. (1) Name me games in the West that have Nintendo involved that would have (2) the mechanic of petting 2D human characters. ![]() All you need is either it to be "offensive", "objectionable", "immoral", etc for it to be "censorship".That's exactly what the reason is. I know! The cultural difference comes from people seeing the "petting minigame" as "creepy", "disgusting", etc, right? There you have it. You called it "localization", but how can you define it as such when there's literally no cultural reason for the removal? Hell, removals BY localization are censorship in every case, unless you can point out some that aren't.ĭo we have no notion of head stroking? Is that what you're telling me? ![]() I don't think you understand how retarded your position is. Posted in Fire Emblem, Magazine, Translation, Video Games.No one gives a fuck what you see or not, it's censorship by definition. It was certainly a lot of work, but I do hope you enjoy! I am unemployed… so please consider donating if you like the work I do. This was all done on my free time, and so took a while. Please enjoy it… she did a great job, though you may have to zoom in a little! This was a whopping 12 page special, so it took longer than usual… and pretty much my entire day! I had a friend help me with the clean/typesetting this time to speed up the process or else would have taken even longer. I put them on the pages too for your convenience. I translated all of the pages of the FE Famitsu Scans for 6/18/15. ![]()
