Good legs for Dark Souls 3, Star Ocean has disappointing sales but we all know its dueto censorship effected by the West. However it still made a lot of money

I doubt the censorship did anything.

Lolwut? The Japanese version of SOV was censored by the west? I think you need to realize that the west can't and doesn't force SE to censor anything. They make those decisions themselves. So yeah, it's actually SE being "greedy" because they think they can get more sales in the west by censoring. So blame "greedy" SE that doesn't respect their artists and their work, not the west

So? It was still greedy SE's decision to censor it.  The west didn't decide, it was SE. I bet you hate SE now because they censor their own games? What's that, you don't? What a shocker...

Yeah, and the fact that no SJW's actually complained. It was fear of possible SJW complaints. It's like Japanese developers don't know that shows like Game of Thrones, Spartacus, or True Blood exist in the West. Do they think all Western entertainment is sanitised and has no sexual content? For a game like this it's more likely to be conservative concerned parents that complain than SJWs. While a game like SO might sell mostly to older teens and adults in Japan it's probably viewed, in the popular media at least, as a game for 10-13-year olds because of it's animation style. It's a Japanese cartoon style game, hence it must be for tweens. Conservative parent groups will cry it's Japanese culture trying to sexually corrupt our prescious children.

People should remember that historcally all the demands for censorship and control of video games came from morally conservative bible thumpers, who are actually the polar oppositie ideologically of SJWs. And those conservative video game haters are still there. Actually they are probably quietly laughing about the fact that all hate has been diverted to SJWs, which allows the moral conservatives to work from the shadows.

Dark Souls III's drop was quite big... I hope it keeps selling and eventually reach 300k physically.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
