I wouldn't feel cheated, because I couldn't care less about one religion or the other :)


Let's say I was listening to a Japanese anime song, and it was "haha, Europeans suck because they watch our shows. They can't do anything themselves" as a lyric.

1) I wouldn't know the lyrics anyway, and would just sing the song if it had a catchy tune

2) If I did find out the lyrics, I'd go "meh" or "hahaha, darn you, Japanese mofo's", not "WHYYYYY, you subliminal posters! I demand retribution" or something...

 

 

It's like what Eminem has said: He can't believe that people act the way he does in songs, or do the same things he talks about in songs, when he explicitely said it's just a song.

That's how this should've been approached: a game, with a certain song that happens to have certain lyrics.  A patch would've solved the problem, and the ones that keep saying that "people without an internet connection" would've suffered from this, the fact remains that the song is not understandable by 99.999999% of gamers (praise be to that one Somalian gamer and that one Somalian interpreter that understands it).

 

 I find that offensive.
