I’ve seen no evidence that this was due to pressure from Sony. Also, if the only way you get off is absurd outfits on characters, you could just get a life instead of signing a useless petition.

Edit: considering how much shit this game got after trailers came out, maybe it’s not some grand conspiracy and just the company reacting to market demands? It’s fine when it’s the Sonic movie, but it’s TERRIBLE when they give a woman pants!

Ehhh it's grey for me. If the creators wanted it that way, then fuck censorship all around. We shouldn't as a society be scared of boobies.

However, then I'd say we should pressure them for overt sexualization.

Cyberpunk was censored because they had a gasp visible vagina if you manually removed all of Vs clothes and some countries mandated underwear. It wasn't overtly sexual, they wanted it to be truly a role playing game, you were V, you could look down your own pants.

Sony has a history of censorship on games that were fine on pc. And who are you to tell people what they can and can't enjoy?

The whole reason why this game had such a massive large player count in the demo version was because it was following marketing demands ie. Gamemechanics, soundtrack, story, and attractive characters. You can't market the game as being "uncensored in all regions" and show trailers of the uncensored version of the game if your end product is actually censored.

Do they? All I can think of is all of the PlayStation games that have come out with more gratuitous nudity that Sony didn’t bother censoring.

Yeah why would Sony have a hand in censoring it? There are a ton of tittyfull games on PlayStation. Dead or Alive and MGSV come to mind.
