Just for the record, I almost DIDN'T buy Dungeon Travelers 2 not because of what was being censored but because what was being censored seemed so petty. I'm a sucker for an anime styled turned based dungeon crawler which lead to my interest in Dungeon Travelers 2. I'm very anti-censorship, but I'm not going to let that get in the way of a great game such as Indigo Prophecy for the PS2.
Researching Dungeon Travelers 2, the censorship took nothing away from the game play. What got censored were 4 simple images in which one looked liked a demon was having oral sex. That I can probably understand. But if such a big deal was made out of something so little to begin with by the developers themselves from my interpretation, I feel compelled to not support the title out of principle. Make a big deal out of something that's big, not four simple images that are opened to interpretation. But i did eventually buy Dungeon Travelers 2.
In regards to Nier, I don't see an issue with how it stands now, but it wouldn't surprise me if clothing were to change to look less revealing. Someone mentioned earlier that since the game is already rated mature, changing clothing isn't going to make much difference with the rating which I agree. But changing clothing is simple to implement.

In general (and regards to Dungeon Travelers 2), if a publisher has to edit content in order to get the game released at all, then I understand completely. That just used often as a crutch and isn't the actual reason. NISA used that on Criminal Girls but then it came out that it was entirely false and they made it up.

I cannot think of the damn titles right now, but I know that there were censored VITA releases of games that were later released on PC in its uncensored form. Criminal Girls might be one of them. When issues like this happen, it makes me a little leary of supporting a title out of princible that's been censored from it's orginal source.
