Forums - Sony Discussion - Sony to crack down on sexually explicit games |Update: Specifically Japanese games containing underage characters

rapsuperstar31 on 20 April 2019

Seeing as how my favorite games are made by Nintendo, Insomniac, and Naughty Dog, none of which make overly sexualized games I could care less.

What character?

Marie Rose, probably. She's the smallest character in the series.

I think it's pretty clear that DOA was censored due to people like Anita Sarkeesian and the poisonous pandering SJW hivemind though, and not due to a "childlike" character.

Every game censored by Sony* obviously since that is what we are talking about.

At this point you cant even defend your argument and are just saying random stuff hoping you are right.

Games censored from Sonys policy affects JPN region. DMC5 was not censored in Japan. Do the math. 

Except Mary Skelter 2 got censored by Sony in China instead. Didn't get censored in JP doesn't mean it won't get censored in other country by Sony :))

To be honest, most of them look underage. :p

So it is still logical they want to censor some items that make it possible to see upskirts on them and that does enhance boobmovement.

Marie Rose is 18, you should know. And most Asia girls who are 18 years old look like that. This is 22 years old female in Japan:

Marie Rose looks like a 12 year old no matter what age she is supposed to be and that picture you brought up is an extreme example not comparable with the rest of the population and it holds no weight in the argument that a company has its reasons to not wanting to sexualize underage looking women worldwide.

Sony to crack down on sexually explicit PlayStation games

By Olivia Tambini 14 hours ago Gaming  

Addressing concerns about the depiction of women

Sony has revealed that it's cracking down on sexually explicit content in PlayStation games, in a change to its "in-house standards".

According to Cnet, a Sony representative told the Wall Street Journal that "its decision was based on the rise of the #MeToo movement", which has seen powerful individuals across the tech, entertainment, and music industries ousted from their positions amid accusations of sexual assault and harassment.

Yeah, sure.. Censoring games will definitely make the world a better place and remove all form of violence... There are so much sexually explicit stuffs everywhere else but, no, it's just video games that are responsible!

And btw, slicing open innocent people in the most gore way possible is okay. While a cute girl in a bikini can provoke armageddon... And since when sexuality is degrading for women??? OMG, how can ppl be so stupid in 2019???

Those freaking feminists just want an excuse to screw with people, that's it. The most shameless part is the fact some other people actually care about what those freaking biatches say. I'm so close to sell back my PS4 cuz it makes me sick to get a console made by those freaking hypocrit sheeps.

One thing is for sure, I won't buy the PS5 if they stick with that insulting policy. Period!!

So my question to those sticking up for the censorship is this.

If covering a butt or censoring underage girls is the right thing to do, than should we just not allow devs to make those games in the first place?

Whats the point of only censoring 1 out of 5 versions of a game? You dont think the child will simply get the Game on something else like Steam which has no morals when it comes to releasing games.

Honestly i think its rather stupid to censor a game. Whats the difference with a show like Sailor Moon which is available to everyone and thats about 14 year old girls over sexualized in mini skirts and mature adult bodies.. oh lets not forget the semi nude scenes of there transformations and all the upskirts in the entire show.
Did Sailor Moon harm any kids growing up?

Good point! 



Pocky Lover Boy!

Again, this is Japan, many 18 years old girls in Asia look like Marie Rose, especially in Viet Nam, China, Japan, North/South Korea. Koei Tecmo is from Japan, you know :))

MS2 released in Japan in July 2018. It released in China in October. Sony's censorship policy also seemed to start appearing in October from what I can tell. 

So of course the JPN version was not censored, it released before the policy was put into place. 

You can try again of course.

agendas I guess

Sony could release the patch to censor it like the China ver but they didn't, right?
