Bit of censorship is okay. If we let things go, everything is going to be as perverse as Wright's mind.



Around the Network

To reiterate AVGN's comment on how censorship makes very little sense, a lot of times. You can't say asshole on TV. But can freely say ass and then hole a few seconds later. Without being bleeped. Discovery Channel makes Mythbuters' bleep "crap" and "pissed", for no good reason. In earlier seasons, they didn't do that. And nor does other shows do that. And they're rated PG. Regardless what demographic they're trying to hit. They're not G. Exception to the science class special. They even blurred out a dummy being used to test if urine can conduct electricity back up to you. It was a dummy and a plastic hose. This game censor is equal to this stuff.

Unless wright has a japanese level of perversion, he can't be all that perverse. He just likes traps.

Its always amusing to me that graphic violence and gore is acceptable but bad language and boobies will corrupt the nation :) And as for including 2 boys kissing - OMG thats a sign of society's end. But as bad as game censorship is , movie sponsorship is 10 times more hypocritical.


Guy: Super sexual, unrealistic body, perfect face, shirtless most of the movie.

Response: grow up. It's not meant to be real.

 

Girl: Pretty, sometimes wears revealing clothes, flirty

Response: OMG, THIS IS SEXIST! FAT GIRLS CAN BE PRETTY TOO! AND STOP MAKING US LOOK LIKE OBJECTS YOU SEXIST DOGS.

 

And thus this is why I hate people who criticize women in movies and games, but don't say anything about men who are super unrealistic( cough cough sexy Ryu from Super street fighter five cough).

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

I noticed all your examples are directly related to Nintendo, and yeah, their censorship decisions are pretty dumb.

Well, yeah... Nintendo's are the most know and relevant due to its status as first party.. But it have been hapenning on some other less known games from Japan, Criminal Girls invitation and Monster Monpiece are the two of then... But these two games are pretty extreme on Fan service content, so much that make Nintendo's excuses look like just stupid decisions...
