Reminder that Namco Bandai has confirmed in a recent stream that certain edits will be made to the upcoming God Eater games to keep an age rating they want. We likely won't see any major character like Alisa having her costume changed due to how iconic it is and how people would immediately recognize the changes but probably we'll get some of our costume choices edited. What does /v/ think of that?
>>336229339
I think that America is to blame and video games shouldn't have to conform to a board of uptight people.
Developers learned to develop to make the games they want to make. Not be whinged at.
>>336229458
But it was Namco Bandai EU that handled the localization.
>>336229339
>They change her hat
I would riot.
>>336230027
She changed it herself when GE1MC gifted her a beret
>>336230103
Well, that's the sequel.
Can't do two games in a row with the same hat.
It's just not sanitary.
>>336229339
Really? Link to stream/announcement? Doesn't seem like something they would do.

>>336231069
Wow that seems very off for them especially given the series. Not sure why they are doing that
>>336231778
Their reasoning seems to be ratings, and given how little love this localization is getting I'm just going to say that maybe they're being cheap and just don't want to run the risk of having to submit it more than once to the ESRB and spending more money than the minimum required.
>>336231069
What's the point of bringing the game over?
Well which costumes do you think will get censored?
>>336232453
So english speakers can play it, but at the same time make so many mistakes during the localization (dub only, digital only for one game, no physical version for vita for the other, censorship) that it makes it unappealing to the people that originally wanted to play it.
Will Nana get censored?
>>336232709
Her sandwiches will be blurred.
>>336232795
Good, they were disgusting.
Burst was also edited
>>336232618
Wow this just screams total failure. Who are they trying to appeal to again?
>>336233263
original, venus is too perfect for the west
>>336233263
>>336233336
I'm not seeing the difference
>>336233406
chest region
>>336233406
You're probably gay
Are these games even any good?
Fucking conservatives and their god and moral complexes, fucking liberals and their SJW's hounds.
Why do people like the U.S? They're nothing but hypocrites who only act out of their own interests while forcing others to fall in line with their bogus laws,morals and ideals.
I hope Trump gets into office so his crazy ass will stop all non western video games from coming to the west out of some weird logic just so I don't have to suffer this bullshit anymore.
Who else are they going to edit? I mean, Alisa's costume is probably the most ****offensive**** thing in this game.
>>336233849
maybe add an undershirt for >>336232618 and do the Venus bra edits again.
>>336229945
>Murican garbage niche dub only
>Censored
>Digital Only
Who are they trying to appeal here?
>>336232709
She wasn't in PXZ2, so yes she will in GE.
I don't remember any sort of content having to be censored when playing burst. I'm don't know anything about the second one though.
>>336234927
ikr? Why the fuck they even do the western release?
If true I'm skipping it, dub only was already a bad sign but this is the nail in the coffin.
>>336235983
say it on namco's twitter, not here.
>>336235983
I'm just going to pick it up during a big Steam sale.
>>336235983
yoho yoho a pirate's life for ye
>>336236073
I don't have a twitter.
>>336229339
>Age rating
Why would they downrate an already rated game?
can't fucking Euros and Americans deal with edginess and sex like any normal human being?
I mean you see kids at wrestling shows with blood and violence and sex themes but Video games and tv series can't have that shit?
Censorship was always part of this industry specially during localization. We are just more aware of it these days. Which is a good thing in the long run.
>>336229339
I think this localization is dead to me anyway from the second they announced it won't have nip voices. I couldn't care less what other pointless normalfag pandering bullshit they're going to slap on this.
I'm glad it'll bomb.
>>336237929
The age of information, now companies can't localize anything without people becoming aware of any changes made from how easy it is to get jap footage. The more people bitch, the better the chances are that in the long run localizations become more straightforward with minimum changes.
>>336236073
Has anyone actually complained? Have hey even responded?
>>336238839
Yes and no
>>336229339
Good. I love that franchise and Im sick of you pathetic neckbeards turning it into another waifu simulator. I hope they cut out anything that would result into 100 autistic virgin threads after its released. Would be nice to be able to discuss at least this game without retards killing any discussion.
>>336238926
you're fucking retarded if you think censoring things actually improves discussion, fire emblem fates was basically indiscussable on this board for months, every topic about it was complaining about the complete fuck up of a localization or bitching about said bitching.
When they just leave everything in like they should it's perfectly possible to talk about the actual game whenever you want.
>>336229339
WHere does it say that? I remember watching the stream but I didn't hear that. Like this localization couldn't get any worse.
>>336238901
Alright guessI will hit them up and let me know
>>336229339
>but probably we'll get some of our costume choices edited
I don't really even care actually. I always used the bulky clothing/coats on female characters anyway.
Do any of these hunting games do well on consoles? Toukiden Kiwami is beyond dead online. I feel they are trying as hard as they can to kill off this game.
>>336239821
Toukiden kiwami PS4 even had cross play with the vita version, barely anyone played the online for it because it was such a hassle (essentially had to replay most story missions again to get to the good shit since the progress was separate).
>>336235073
>She wasn't in PXZ2,
What, she was. It was her, Ciel and Alisa
You could also get her costume in zestiria, wasn't changed there
>>336239821
The issue being that they're not really designed for at-home playin Japanand they're not very popular over here. I don't own a Wii U, so I can't say how popular even MH3U was, but it's definitely a genre that is targeted toward handhelds.
>>336240020
You only need to replay the red ones. Doesn't take too long, honestly. I had to do it to unlock ez shadow spawns for a mitama from them.
>>336240020
Yeah, I got it on the sale the other day. No one plays this thing. And not being able to play the story online is retarded.
>>336229339
Who cares? It has a steams sale, some day mods will fix that shit.
