That's bullshit and you know it, localized games tend to be full of memes and pop culture references that completely clash with the game and actively hurt the experience because of the dissonance. There is no excuse for poor translations, either do it well or don't do it at all.

I think it's more to do with a bunch of females and white knights working for companies like NISA and Atlus.

Its because american normal fags (who don't even play this stuff to begin with) would get "offended" at the "outrages sexualization". you know, the country where GTA V is one of the best selling games of all times and constanly bombs innocent families in real life pretends to have a moral compass .

>>
>>315612009
their characters would still exist, just that they wouldn't have the fonts. i'm also pretty sure that comic sans bullshit predates tumblr. undertale has a shit ton of general meme internet pandering but i can't think of anything that is tumblr specific.

Comic sans and papyrus text meme outdates tumblr by more than just a couple of years you fucking dumb ass.
As far as undertale goes, I cant really pin any of the memes on tumblr

Its actually kind of nice to be able to discuss the game. Looking forward to discussing Xenoblade X in January.

Lol games developing with the times is not "appealing to tumblr". If you played as an overweight black lesbian in CoD then that'd be pandering but baseline not treating women as fuck objects isn't pandering it's decency.

It didn't die down. They who work for free kept 404ing the threads. Same with the Xenoblade "leaks". Video game discussion is fine, as long as someone doesn't disagree with it. It's fine to have the entire board be taken over with MGSV false rumours tho.

When will they realize that the easiest way to deal with those accusations is to completely ignore them.

SJWs and media rats have the attention span of fruit flies. If you don't give them drama they'll fuck off pretty fast.

Look at NBC and Trump. They're not commenting because they know that these retards will shut the fuck up and go away a few days after the episode airs.
