This shit is getting sad. We should organize a petition or something that asks Nintendo to stop with this censorship bullshit. It's probably too late for any games currently being localized but if we get enough support they might stop doing this kind of thing in the future. At the very least we'd have some to point to and say "see, this is why you're failing" when this game and Xenoblade inevitably bomb.
>>
Honest question, why do any of you guys care if one detail gets changed? Does it really affect the game for you that much? Does it truly stray so far from the original concept that you can't play it anymore?

The job of localization teams should be to get the game over as close to its original release as possible.

Then it would be bullying and have them cry out to the internet about it. You literally can't do anything about this shit, and they know it. Complain? You're sexist. Try and ask them about why they're changing dialogue? You're oppressive thoughts and ideals don't belong in 2015.

They won't even come to the table and discuss this, look at the changes to XBCX. They couldn't just say "Oh, we didn't like the bust slider and it's terrible, terrible effect on the poor psyche of women in video games. So we needed to remove it and make everyone equal" When clearly 1. I can't imagine too many women giving a shit about the game, and 2. Breasts, crazily enough, come in various sizes in the world.

Okay, but it's not like they are changing anything with the gameplay or story. It's one minor thing to avoid controversy here. A localization team SHOULD have the choice to be able to choose what will fit the audience and market where they are located, as well as be able to avoid controversy with subjects like underage shit and "cultural appropriation."
Believe me, I get that it's completely fucking stupid and that people are too sensitive. It's just that people have to understand that they are still a business that has to sell, and they will do anything they can to be able to make it sell well. It boils down to do you want the game or not at all.

Is adding a cowboy hat to a character from a Japanese video game developer not also cultural appropriation? Your arguments make no sense.

Cultural appropriation has for ages essentially been the culture of both Americans but also germanic folks like Scandinavians and what have you.
Most of the common trader, seafaring, but also travelling and new settling populations thrived on cultural appropriation.

To look down on cultural appropriation, and by extension their cultures at large, is incredibly intolerant.
My ancestors have appropriated culture far and wide from all around the globe. That was their pride.

That's a petition for a single game that's likely already had significant amounts of translation work done.

Yes we're petty to complain about a trivial thing, but its also petty to complain and get a trivial thing censored.

No argument on /v/ would be complete without a terrible food analogy. Imagine you order a fucking meal, and the faggot vegetarian next to your table complains about meat. The waiter then tells you the bacon bits have been removed from your meal because of the faggot vegetarian. Even though its a small thing that doesnt make a big difference, you should be fucking pissed that something you like was removed.

It's sort of like a soft-patch. There's a homebrew app called HANS that can redirect code to the content of an edited package of the game. I've been using it to play as Kris in Pokemon ORAS. You can apply it in the middle of save that's already in progress just fine.

I know these are no old school roms or anything like that. But I know that modding old SNES games thoroughly raped all save data. And I have messed up quite a few save files for PC games too through over extensive modding.

Bullshit. When BD came out, there had already been a group of English speakers that experienced the title.

Same thing for any big Japanese title. If you look in the right places, you can know everything about the game before it comes out here.

I don't get why the game industry doesn't do what the music industry does and offer a clean version and an uncensored version for games they feel need localized. They could even make the uncensored version only available to purchase online or something if they are so worried about sheltering children.

The bravo bikini jokes and plot line was made a huge mess out of the disconnect between the characters' dialogue and reactions to the bravo bikini versus how tame it ultimately was even in comparison to many of the regular battle gear.

But more importantly. As far as the main story itself is concerned, the ages of the main characters makes no damn sense relative to when events transpired in game and what the characters themselves shouldn't and should have experienced.

Certain key plot elements takes place before the characters were even born, which was central to the story itself. But then they upped the age and it no longer makes sense unless they have the worst memories ever.

as a person who dealt with Megaman Battle Network 6's terrible localization removing content (literally anything related to Boktai, battle chips and extra scenario included) I hate getting products that are less than their Japanese counterparts
I hated Lunar Knight's localization and I hated Starforce's removal of things.
Then I hear this big controversy of the Xenoblade wiiU game about altering and removing allusions to Christianity and Budhism (which is a pretty huge thing to alter for such a big release), that and the fanservice being altered and people have the right to be pissed off
But fags like you and >>317496326 are the type to accept it. Also the type that spews "you only care because you can't masturbate to it"
I just strongly believe that it is wrong to censor a game or localize it poorly. Even if it is a costume change, it's these small changes that lead companies to reign over bigger ones.
As a consumer of course I am going to express my dissatisfaction with companies that do this
But no, keep telling me on how I only care about jacking off to Yoshida's character design

The removal of philosophical and religious references from XCX is already a big change. There's no need to suggest a slippery slope because we've already fallen down it. Yet faglords such as yourself claim we only care about sexual content even though the fucking OP of this thread is not about sexual content at all (as has been pointed out, the new costume is just as lewd as the replaced one). The issue here is that content was changed in order to keep from hurting the feelings of the overly sheltered PC crowd and dipshits like you enable such harmful behavior.

It's always safer to remove, especially since it's a Japanese game. It isn't a game made by Native Americans, so it's less problematic to remove cultural elements that belong to them.

So the ultimate end result will be the systematic removal of Native culture from all forms of media so that new generation will never be exposed to said culture and it'll end up forgotten and erased from the public conscious.

Great work, let's continue the genocide and marginalization of the Native people till they're gone.

The biggest problem is that they're named after Tomahawks which makes no sense because their specialty weapons are crossbows and no other class in the game is named directly after a weapon.

What they should've done is change the name and maybe edit the costume a little to be less of a stereotype. Instead they changed Native Americans to Cowboys which is a problem of its own.
