I have zero interest in this game, so I have no horse in this race, but the censorship does seem a little silly. It’s rated M, are we really so puritan that a little cleavage needs to be covered up?

It is silly but what's even sillier is being legitimately mad at this

Can we just agree that everyone is a little stupid here? Except for us. We are Rad.

[-] trashgirlfriend@lemmy.world 27 points 7 months ago

I can agree that I am very smart and cool

I am not mad, but I am disappointed in sony on principal. I want to see the game the devs wanted to make. Eventually. If it comes to PC one day.

I am not mad about not being able to play the uncensored version. I was likely never going to play it anyway, since it's not the style of games I play.

I am mad that devs wanted to make a game certain way and Sony stepped in to censor it. And this kind of puritan censorship is spreading everywhere.

Me when a couple inches of fabric

Sure, its tiny. Honestly, if it wasn't for the promises from devs that there would be no censorship, I doubt anyone would notice. In this case, it is just about the principle for me.

I read Japan is making them censor the game so that could be part of the reason. The 'Hard R' graffiti is something else.

Correction: It was EA Japan complaining about why the Japanese rating board banned their game but allowed Stellar Blade uncensored.

They didn't. Only 2 weeks ago the Devs were boasting about it being uncensored.

I think they were trying to avoid getting a Cero Z rating in Japan.

From an outside perspective? Yes.
