Are we really going to drop all support for this game just because some SJW assholes made some typical but shitty localization changes?
Shouldn't we enjoy the game, AND let our voices be known that we are deeply upset? Do we really want to pass up pretty much the only decent Wii U game worth having over petty ass localization changes? Lets not stoop to their level.
Lets enjoy the fuck out of the game while giving the middle finger to NoA. And I know the perfect way to do it. All Americans! Import the game from the EU! Show NoA we want the game, but we do not approve of their bullshit. Let them know that we at least appreciate NoE attempts to market the game by having actual trailers during their version of Nintendo Direct.

You know, this image was what got me interested in the game in the first place.
I could have handled Lyn outfits being censored. What bothers me is being unable to play as a little girl myself.

>Shouldn't we enjoy the game
The game is shit, so that's kinda hard to do.
can someone confirm that they changed Wels name to Versus?
I wonder if all this controversy really hurts the games sales. It didn't seem to hurt bravely default. They say that any publicity is good publicity. I wonder if people complaining about this game is boosting sales or lowering them.

Everyone is so worried about the story being altered or censored, but anyone who has followed the Japanese release knows that the story in this game is relatively light after the tutorial heavy opening.
It takes 60-70 hours to beat the game. Yet there are only 12 story missions/quests.
Those 12 missions are gated beyond requirements such as reaching specific bond levels with party members or reaching certain Doll/Skell/Level Prereqs.
Everything else is sidequests and do whatever you want to advance style gameplay that is very player driven.
This is very interesting, because.....well...its the opposite of previous works, which were comparatively linear and story heavy.
In fact, the change in structure combined with this stories big twist (you are not who you thought you were, and everyone was in on it but you....) led many Japanese players to call MGSV a "Xenoblade X Repeat".
Literally, V has come to.
You niggas should stop being so worried about story changes, because this shit is the MGSV of Xenogames, player and gameplay driven, revolving around player choice and customization while relatively light on story with the exception of a very very cutscene heavy tutorial segment.
I agree that censorship is ass, and the costume changes are dumb and pointless. But for those concerned about them ruining the story- have no worries, because there is not much story to ruin in the first place.
I am worried that a lot of you guys are not aware the kind of game Xenoblade X is, and are letting experiences with the previous one color your expectations for this one, when narrative, they really couldnt be more different in terms of structure.
>>316662928

>>316662469
With Bravely Default it wasn't known before release.
I'm not gonna lie, my hype is faltering with all this news. That's like the opposite of what should happen.
I wanted more story than what we're apparently getting. The story was one of the most captivating aspects of the game. Not to mention I've been ever so slightly spoiled about it. It's bad enough we have a custom made protag. I can't think of many games that do that in a very engaging way.
I'd say out of a 100, I'm sitting at a 80.
I'm not happy about the censorship changes, but in the grand scheme of things there's not a whole lot I can do other than just enjoy the game as is. Hopefully I'll get it for Christmas.I'm not buying FF5, though. I'm really not happy about digital only for a 16gb game.

>>316663102
>>316663326
Well I guess its best you learn now, this way. It hasn't been communicated well in Western Marketing, but Xenoblade X has been designed and intended to be a very player driven experience, not a story driven one. There IS a pretty decent story there, with awesome cutscenes. You just are not getting them all the time, they are split apart between the main story missions, which are gated behind level and affinity requirements.
There are smaller, lower quality cutscenes used for character events and stuff however.
But yeah, do not go into this expected the constant story driving the experience like the previous xenogears game. The story IS there, but it is more of the backdrop and general motivation in the background, that occasionally pops back up when you hit the right requirements and gives you some really cool and entertaining story stuff once every 5 hours or so.
>>316663180
Of course. They are the big selling points of the game, and I feel this game does exploration better than the vast majority of other games out there. In terms of customization, it gives you a ton of options as well.
However, this is why I can totally understand the disappointment around some of the localization changes. Why remove character customization options such as the boob slider, or the amount of character voices (which are tied to the characters lines and personality in combat, so they essentially removing personality options as well) in a game that is designed almost entirely around exploration and customization?
Its absolutely frustrating.
I almost do not mind Lyn censored outfits, because in a way it means her outfits are unique now, but I would still like to have the ability to toggle between the censored and uncensored at will.
Removing and reducing character customization options is absolutely unforgivable in a game like this though.
I doubt they altered the core gameplay or exploration in any meaningful way however, so that should still be great.
>>316663794
>Play an undub of a game that is natively dual-audio
Yeah, okay.

There was a lot of thread once we knew about it.

I am of course referring to before the game came out.
>>316664020
And like I said, we knew about BD's censorship a week before the game was released. So for that week there was a lot of thread about it.
so what's been censored outside of my precious boob slider?
I'm still gonna pick the game up...I guess.
>>316664116
And like I said, I didn't see any threads about it before the game was out, so clearly XCX's censorship has been getting much more attention than BD's did at the time.

>Actually spoiling the stories twist
I would be mad but now I don't have to buy a WiiU after all.
>>316663572
Xenoblade didn't actually have that much in the way of exciting story either. Much of the non-player-controlled time was just discussion. It also only had one or two quest chains that had any narrative value.
>>316664340
Its ok. They spill the beans before you even get your doll/skell license. About 15-20 hours in. There are other, bigger twists later on that I haven't even hinted at. But that one alongside the gameplay/story structure changes are what prompts a lot of Japanese players to compare the game to MGSV.
>Most of the anons in this thread are actually acting reasonable
So where the threads yesterday just full of shitposters or something?
>>316664208
You didn't see the threads because apparently you are blind. People blasted Bravely Default for censorship non-stop.
Xenoblade is over, im still getting it, a lot of people still are, but it is dead. I mean it will still be good but it has just been trampled on, no one wants to talk about it, just play it and hope the same thing doesn't happen to FE fates and SMT x FE (x NOA).

I'm fine with that, I loved doing all the micro management and side quests in Xenoblade.
So if most of it feels like the endgame content from the original than I'm good.
Just hope the american voices stay as entertaining as the british ones did. Guess it's more the quality of the writing that gets me worried.

It's pretty much a hard mode run and it's pretty obvious it was meant to be that way since the game has no difficulty options (outside sending your soldiers to cut off enemy supplies so they're weak as shit or turning off tagging and reflex).
Now you're sure to hate X, though. Alongside the minimal story it ends in a cliffhanger, too.Stop being autistic and enjoy games for the gameplay, please.
>>316664737
Like who?
>>316664708
>>316664708
Yeah. I think you should be fine then. 80% of the game is just exploring and doing sidequests and shit until you unlock the requirements for a main story quest.
If you were ok with MGSV, you should be fine with XBX.
The jury is still out on the English voices. From what we have heard so far, it sounds very 90s Anime Dub tier. Which is ok- would be worse if that quality of voice work did not fit perfectly with the setting and plot of the game- which is very 90s anime.
>>316664737

>>316665305
>MGS2 is completely unfinished though, with the final product leaving Liquid Ocelot running around the world with Metal Gear Ray and the Patriots having a firm grip on controlling the world.
Remember MGS2 was meant to be the end, to the point where Kojima went way out of his way to make MGS3 a prequel to avoid making a sequel to MGS2. Only after continued begging from fans for years for a sequel to MGS2 did he decide to make MGS4 the way it is.
Kojima fucking LOVEs open ended endings with loose ends and unanswered questions for speculation. Which is why both of his "ultimate endings" for the series were that way. It is also why MGS4 was so difficult for him and stressed him the fuck out, because he was working against his natural style and type in order to give the fans what they wanted.
>>316665551

Yet the timeline goes out of its way to mention Eli setting up the kingdom of the flies and an "incident" that happens there.
I honestly would not be surprised if it was an update to be added at a later date. Quiet Reunion and all of the update weapons were found in the code Datamined ages ago back when the game launched. So was the nuke disarm ending.
Basically if we get about 10 new subsistence/extreme missions at any point, then you can definitely expect Kingdom of the Flies to release at some point, in one form or another.

Not if you emulate and use the HD texture pack
>>316665789
You can actually look this up yourself, but okay.
Game localization choices are in most cases only made after approval from the original developers, who are the ones actually responsible for producing the English version of the game. Western branches are just local publishers, not the decision makers and not the programmers. It's also not unusual for Japanese developers to suggest localization changes themselves regardless of the opinion of the local staff. Stuff like name and object changes to make things more 'western' are normal ideas from Japanese developers. Whether that is the situation here is not something I'd have an opinion on, but it's foolish to think that somehow Japan is an innocent victim of this process. They originated it and still do it today.
>>316665710
It really isn't. Sure, B.B. gets Sally back at the end of ep 51, but that still wouldn't explain a huge experimental M.G. made in 1984 that completely overshadows anything else in the series with the flaw of only being able to run on shotamagic not being mentioned anywhere else in the fucking series.
You're never getting a satisfying "conclusion" that actually ties off everything, unless they remake MG1 and 2. Otherwise it's impossible. Kojima wrote himself into a hole and the only way out is with postmodernist bullshit.

>>316666182
Actually, Kojima wrote the post modern bullshit first, and built the rest of the story around it and to lead up to it. Both versions of the hospital scene were literally the first part of Phantom Pain that were made, written, and completed. Even before Ground Zeroes, those scenes were done.
>>316663861
The majority of anti-censorship fags never really gave a shit about seeing potato in a bikini. What they were against was the very idea of "censorship". A lot of anons don't see the big picture but if they stay quiet about censorship because it doesn't affect them, then companies will think it's okay and start censoring more stuff without restraint. Honestly I don't give a shit about the bust slider, but if I don't boycott this game, then I'm letting Nintendo know it's alright to do more shit like this in the future. Even if the game is fun, I can still ignore it since I have plenty of other games to go around and play.

The majority of anti-censorship fags were never going to buy the game in the first place, thus making them essentially shitposters
God I can't fucking wait until release so there can be a general on /vg/ where actual discussion can take place and shitposters like 90% of this thread will be banned immediately.
>>316666160
>It's all the jap's fault!
You're an idiot. It's a collaboration. Any side can have ideas, they both need to agree to make the change. And localisation changes are generally something that the localisation team want to have changed, not the developers.
You're also completely ignoring that many localisation studios use their own programmers and make the changes themselves, rather than relying on the Jap devs to make all the changes for them, like Xseed used to.
EVERYONE IS AN AI EXCEPT ELMA WHO IS A SPACE ELF
>>316666537
Yep, keeping being a "I'm against the MAN" white boy.
>>316666569
I can only speak for myself but I had this game preordered and cancelled soon after. I genuinely hate censorship with a passion.
>>316666626
epic
I wouldn't be surprised if this were actually true, monolith are shit at plot twists
>>316666389
The soundtrack is really all over the place, the quality is inconsistent as fuck.
>>316666569
> a general on /vg/ where actual discussion can take place
>>316666389
That is great.But I also like the Drakengard 1 OST.
>>316666680
I'm not sure I follow.
I'm sure I'm just taking your bait here, but i literally buy almost every game I can new in order to support those making it. However I cannot justify giving money to a localization team that is willing to censor something they don't like.
>>316666694
are you autistic, perchance?
>>316666569
>actual discussion
>/vg/
Oh Anon, you're funny. Nothing but arguments about who has the best butt and unhealthy circlejerks await.
>>316666389
I don't understand why you people are listening to ost tracks before even playing the game.
The tracks are BEST when you first hear them within the context of a cutscene or various moments in gameplay. Then after you play, you listen to the tracks on your own time to reminisce about those moments.
>>316660791
>Are we really going to drop all support for this game just because some SJW assholes made some typical but shitty localization changes?
Yeah.
Gotta send a message.
>>316666569
>a general on /vg/ where actual discussion can take place
You mean a tripfag circlejerk about who has the most feels?
>>316666569
>/vg/ where actual discussion can take place
You'd probably be better off talking about the game on /m/.And even then, /v/ has been spreading this bullshit on /m/.
>>316666569
>a general on /vg/ where actual discussion can take place
You mean avatar circlejerking and potato-chan roleplay shitposting? Because thats all you're getting out of /vg/.
>>316666578
>i can't respond unless i violate global rule 3
Thanks for playing.
You know exactly why treehouse got this bad.
>>316666789
Are you stupid?
>>316666726it is
>>316666793
I am basically just listening to the overworld music themes only. Does that make me a bad person?
>Wii U Bundle Europe only
Fuck this gay earth
>>316666793
I actually like listening to OSTs beforehand because then I can think "oh, so that song plays here".
Pretty much the opposite of what you feel, but it's still a good feeling.
>>316666773
Yep, you're a white guy alright.
>>316666263
>abloo bloo a developer has adjusted their art style for western release (which isn't censoring) to cover up their barely-dressed children, now i can't jerk off over them as well.
Why do you weaboo ultra-faggots need to be titilated all the time while playing a game, are you that fucking thirsty/beta?
>>316666873
>Needing to violate global rule 3 to make an argument
Something that would never happen at all.
>>316666497
you're right, it's locked at 30
even then, that still makes it better than almost any current gen title on ps4 or xbone
I'm used to 120 fps bc I mainly game on PC, but even I can admit solid 30 fps is fine, the issue is the devs for ps4 and xbone games like to claim silky smooth 30 fps and they can't even get to that point, it's silky smooth 20-24 fps stutters
>>316666912
No, that's fine since you know what kind of atmosphere you can expect from the overworld. But judging tracks without its context is a bit much.
>>316666897
What's the difference? DOHOHOHOHOHO
>>316666919
Was more than skin covering.
Wasn't the developers, it was the localization group.
Keep trying mate.
>>316667046
Its nothing we havent already seen in the promotional material. I wouldn't even be listening to it before hand if Nintendo didn't take so god damn long to localize this shit.
>>316661284
you can be the oppai loli
>>316667098
I keep seeing this shit. What are the credentials of the guy posting that?
>>316666917
>He's white because he doesn't just buy something he wants because he disagrees with the actions taken in delivering it
>He's white because he has impulse control
Wow, racist.
>>316666489
Then maybe you're in the minority then. Thanks for showing everyone you care less about the game then them.
>>316667179
How short can you even be in the character creator? I doubt you can make yourself look younger than a teenager/young adult.
>>316667098
>a random neogaf post is credible proof
Are you that same autist that spammed /v/ for weeks with that fake angled Twitter pic of Lin with disproportional legs and tried to to shitpost on here telling everybody that was real? Seriously, fuck off.
>>316666730
>>316666792
>>316666848
>>316666865at least in those threads the people posting are actually genuinely interested in the game and were planning on buying it all along
there are good generals on /vg/, it's far more actual vidya discussion than this meme ridden shitposting fuckstain of a board
>>316667219
Funny how /v/ has no issue being racist, but when someone's racist to a white guy, it's suddenly "bad".
>>316666919
>a developer has adjusted their art style for western release (which isn't censoring) to cover up their barely-dressed children,
>a developer has censored their game (which isn't censoring) to censor it
>>316667204
None, and the text itself is laughably wrong. Anyone posting that image seriously is essentially admitting that they're only in these threads to shitpost and start fights.
>>316667329
>but when someone's racist to a white guy
Are you retarded? That's the opposite of what just happened.
>>316667272
You mean the image that has now been proven completely real?
>>316667348
Seriously. Unless we have physical proof that the script was altered, everyone should report X-censorship threads for instigating a flamewar.
First of all... the game works at 30 fps
Second... it doesn't matters if you buy the game from NoE or NoA, the content is the same, the censorship is the same. The only good option, is buying the original game (the japanese one), with that, you will supporting Monolith Soft and NCL (NoJ) the Nintendo who is doing all the hard work, only for their shit subsidiaries to fucked up everything, but then... you won't enjoy the game in your language
At least, NoE are putting more effort in the marketing for this game and other games than NoA, the NoE trailer is serious, and very well edited. Now, if you look at the NoA trailer... is total depression, some fucker saying stupid things like ''hey, Metroid and Zelda fans, look this'' and then ''is like one of those WRPG that you like, r-right gaiz?'' the best thing you can do with the products is, let them sell for what they are, not for what they aren't
And... if you have some kind of desperation to say something, at leat say something like ''The next chapter in the Xeno Series is coming'' or ''From the creators of some of the very good and ''deep'' JRPGs'' or ''If you like the previous works of Mr. Takahashi and Monolith Soft'' or something like that, i don't know if you can get the idea of what i'm trying to say, but... i hope you do
At this point... everything is fucked, NoA won't listen to your complains... never ever, they will rape every potential successful franchise, and then, they will try to appeal to 12 years old (who don't even buy their products) and satisfy some imaginary ''people'' because ''Kid friendly'' (fuck with that)
At the moment... there is no salvation, until they clean NoA, fired that stupid mememan, and give the middle finger to the ''Treehouse'' fuckers
>>316667469
>>316667348
We already do have proof. Or are you just going to ignore the long-known changes of Doll -> Skell and Testament -> Union?
>>316667495
>the NoE trailer is serious
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTGAwHbluZ0
Of course they had less voices. There's literally only 6 English voice actors who work for anime anyways, and we got them all.
Anyways complaining about any of these issues will never change anything, because NOA doesn't care about anything.
>>316667348
Just like how every other bit of claimed censorship has been fake, right?
Seriously, fuck off with that shit. If you want a censored game, and don't mind Nintendo treating you like an infant, then by all means buy it, but I'm not supporting that bullshit.
>>316667538
Oh gee, two words. MUH GAME IS RUIND!!?!1!!!!!
>>316667495
Why... Do you... Talk... Like... This...?
>original Wii game has dual audio
>sequel hasn't
No buy.
>>316667495
>...
at least you made good points, don´t do that again
>>316662718
>I was the only one who believed him
Feels good desu. Just wait until people start finding out about the censored story. Then it will be undefendable.
can anyone bundle together all the changes we know of so far?
It's getting really confusing to keep track of.
Here, have some delicious brown in return.
>>316667550
Where is Chris Sabat, Kyle Herbert, and Johnny Young Bosch then?
>>316667538
Your ass is not proof
>>316667623
Report and ignore. You know his shitpost has been debunked countless times.
>>316667586
Bitch elsewhere then.
>>316667623
>MUH GAME IS RUIND!!?!1!!!!!
That's not what the argument was.
>>316667550
So Yuri Lowenthall is in this?
>>316667719
Debunked how? By showing those changes were indeed made to the game?
>>316667719
>>316667734
why are you guys ok with this? why do you guys favor censorship? answer me
>>316667692
Skell>Doll
Most union names.
B.B.>M.I.M.
No breast slider.
From 20 Cross voices/personalities to 13.
Lyn gets a free burka with every slightly skimpy outfit, like that in your picture.
Probably a few more changes to the terminology, but otherwise the script is seemingly unaffected.
>>316667784
No, hes lubricating his ass before P5.
>>316667495
This. NOA doesn't give a fuck about this game. If they're trying his hard to not market it, chances are high they they didn't give a fuck about localizing it well, either. Their level of effort is very evident already.
And NOA has never EVER listened to fan complaints about anything ever. Never acknowledged, never responded, never anything. They're like an iron curtain.
>>316660791
You forgot
>shit story
>>316667692
Some words that don't actually affect the plot were changed. Breasts were frozen. Loli had black paint added.
>>316667692
Hmm let's see:
>All of Lyn's revealing outfits were censored (not just 2 as originally believed).
>Disabled boob slider for your female avatar, your tits are small/medium sized
>So far only a few terms are known to have been localized, namely Skells = Dolls, BLADE acronym changed, changes of the places and character names. That's all that's known so far. Sadly, reviewers aren't really providing in-depth information yet.
>>316667872
>Skell>Doll
HOW COULD THEY IMMERSION TOTALLY DESTROYED I CAN'T ENJOY THIS GAIJIN SHIT ANYMORE SJW GET OUT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>316667956
they do affect the plot, just like in Xenogears, Xenosaga and Xenoblade Chronicles they have a porpouse
>>316667872
>the script
Nobody's really examined all the story and side quests yet.
>>316667842
I'm actually indifferent to it. My point is why is /v/ acting like they put their dicks in an ant hill over one post a gaffer that had no source made?Unless censorshitposters are gaffers themselves.
>>316668041
We already know the plot, anon. Pretending they matter does nothing.
>>316668125
I´m so sorry you didn´t like the game, good luck next time
>>316662718
>I'll try not to rub it in
>this pic exists
Well he didn't try very hard.
>>316660791
>god tier soundtrack
It's gonna be a cool game and I'm gonna get it day one, but the soundtrack is ass
So it's agreed then, we buy it used?
>>316668054
What few cutscenes and VA we've seen are all pretty faithful, though.
The last good wii u game senpai
>>316668272
No, we'll buy it on release.
>>316668291
yeah at least they refrained themselves from taking too much liberties
I can't find the OST anywhere
>>316660791
Just buy it used
I asked this in the last thread I saw about Xenoblade but everyone was too busy whining about censorship to answer.
What is the combat like in this game? Is it dull MMO combat like in the Wii one?
>>316668041
they are not
>>316668392
Yes, move along.
>>316668392
It's basically an improved version of the first games combat system. It's apparently much faster paced.
>>316664868
Not even a sizable portion of gamers even have this game on their radar, and a lot of them are weebs who would be upset about this. Even some SJWs are upset about this.
>>316668392
it´s the same but improved, actually you got me interested, what did you find dull about the combat?
>>316667872
>Skell>Doll
This gave me an idea.
Couldn't we just potentially have false flaged as SJW this whole time and claim that it's sexist for nintendo to change dolls to skells, because that would imply that boys aren't allowed to play with dolls.
Thus triggering actual SJWs into whining at nintendo that this oppresses trans folks until they change the name back to dolls.
Surely it would have worked considering how fucked up this planet is.
>>316665809
Only character textures (mainly Lynlee) look questionable.
The landscape and monster designs are great and there's no way PS2 would be able to render all those huge continents and foliage with little to no load times.
>>316660791
>Single-player korean MMO 2: the Game.
No, thanks.
>>316668513
>complaining about trans discrimination
>in a game that lets you literally change sex at will
>>316666389
Pretty good for a tense scifi moment.
Now this..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85AB1p6wpaY
This is bad music.
>>316668327
Why?
So TL;DR, the whole "censorship" thing was just cross-site bait?
>>316668392
its a slightly faster paced version of the combat in the Wii one.
>>316668654
It´s Gamefaqs with their retarded logic and approval of censorship, don´t fool yourself
>>316666569
There have been plenty of people who've posted about cancelling their preorders in previous threads, though.
There is literally no reason to remove bust sliders other than "muh sexualization", and it WILL make people not buy it while also not bringing any new buyers.
>>316668617
>implying they aren't outraged by the fact that there are only 2 options
>>316668476
This, the only discussions about his game anywhere on the internet are just talking about localization fears. 'Normal people' don't even know his game exists. It'll sell 300k at best.
This is the tiniest, most pathetic push for a big AAA game I've seen all year. What the fuck is NOA thinking? This could've been a contender. Think of all he big games released this year, and compare it to his. Where's the hype?
>>316667546
Is serious, and very good compared to the American one
Or... do you prefer Bill talking stupid shit over the footage?
>>316668632
I want to have fun while not waiting because some whiny paedos got keked with some irrelevant shit.
>>316660791
>Are we really going to drop all support for this game just because some SJW assholes made some typical but shitty localization changes?
Yes. Because I want to play the original game. Not a fucking censored game.
>>316665586
>It's hard to be a Nintendo fan when they shit all over their fans
ftfy
>>316668654
Depends on what you heard.
The boob slider is gone and Lyn can't wear certain outfits. The other skimpy ones are censored. That's the true gist so far.
>>316668849
She can wear all outfits.
>>316668484
I didn't play much, and it's been a while since I played it so I can't be very specific here, but I just felt like I was playing WoW. Watching my character attack. Which only works in an MMO because you have other people with you. It's just boring in a single player game.
I fell asleep at one point so that's when I decided to stop.
The new one looks really neat though so maybe I should give it another try.
>>316666102
Censorship isn't comfy.
I hope this game bombs
>>316666389
when does this play?
>>316668903
I thought they said she couldn't wear the bunny suit at all
>>316668654
>bait
>implying that would actually hurt sales one bit even if it's true (and it is true, afterall)
>>316668654
Every bit of news and leaks in the past 8 months has proven to change or remove more and more.
>>316668834
You need to have a console for that first, sonygger.
>>316668970
Provide a link then. I haven't heard this, but there is video of her wearing the other skimpiest outfits.
I have to play this game, censorship be damned. More or less. If only to experience this.
