So basically, their home release caters to themselves and the overseas release is the lesser version due to "common sense" being different in the West.

To be fair, it is only one chapter.

The rest of them are largely untouched.

I just started playing and every female character introduction pans up from their feet then stops at their chest and pauses then quickly snaps to thir face like you were staring at their bazingas.

SMTFinal comes out in a few months and Persona 5 comes out next year.

Not to mention Odin Sphere, Monster Hunter, Zero Escape, God Eater 1 and 2, etc etc that are better than this shit that you can be spending your time and money on.

Didn't Fates have its sales inflated since it came out with like 3 different versions?

Anyway, this game bombed hard in Japan. On par with NMH bombing. If a game this niche couldn't sell there I can't imagine the sales for the west.
>>
>>343124997
This.

Why do people care about this poor man's Persona?
>>
>>343120074
that a bulllllllshit.

First of all, it's not a optimization.
Second of all, the developers wanted fanservice, that is what they wanted to convey. Censoring that very thing they created is not conveying what was originally intended.

FUCK YOU ATLUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
>>
>>343125514
Why do people keep saying it bombed? It didn't, at least to the degree people make it out to be.

There was a lack of physical sales but the majority of its sales came from digital purchases. Compare that with the number of wii u's sold in Japan it did well.

ITT: People who don't understand that a localization studio can't say outright say "Our hands were forced by our clients" and do not know how to read between the lines.
>>
>>343124593
Nope. There was actually a lot more dialogue and dialogue options cut.
>>
>>343125514
>Didn't Fates have its sales inflated since it came out with like 3 different versions?
Only two at launch, in a week it had already outsold Awakening in physical sales. Also more importantly, if you bought one version, you could the other one digitally at half price, meaning that each of the two versions actually outdid Awakening in physical sales.

The game that has bad Chaos and Law endings and forces you to go neutral if you want good ones? The game that solves its problems with power of friendship bullshit? The game that has this scene in the game? You sure this isn't the actual Persona 5?

People cared enough to make uncensored patches, importers liked it.

But literally the first reply is someone pointing out otherwise. Of course everyone knows it's just PR bullshit.

Nigga optimization is what you forgot to do when developing this shitshow, hence the ten second loading screens for every goddamn battle.

Why are they so threatened? If people want a censored version, it should sell well, right?

Unfortunately in the off chance this game actually gets a sequel it will still be censored. This franchise will never be uncensored in the west as it will never leave Nintendo's grubby hands due to the FE characters.
>>
>Westerners are increasingly becoming more interested in Japanese video game series.

Are they? Maybe they realized why everyone liked Japanese games in the 80s and 90s then.
>>
>>343126817
is there an uncensored patch for fates? I mean some stuff is complete bull shit and what about xenoblade x? those getting fixed would make my day

>>343126508

Dude, that's every SMT except Nocturne because that one didn't have alignments.
>>
>>343126817
>it should sell well, right?
No because even if it was uncensored it would still sell nothing, it's a weeb game on the Wii U after all and has a tiny shipment of copies from how niche it is. Even if it sold out it'd still be seen as a flop.

Fates became the best selling entry in the series (including the west) despite the mass hatred and campaigns to make it flop.
>>
>>343127204
Yeah. It came out before the game did in the west.

I thought that was just that shitty translation patch
>>
>>343127246
>that's every SMT
Uh no? Every other SMT lets you decide which path do you consider as ''good''. I don't mean bad as in ''shitty, low quality'', I mean bad as in morally bad that shits all over the series' once-existing freedom of letting you choose and still let you with a satisfying end.

Importers are furious over this, /smtg/ has em too.

I didn't care about NoA removing the petting minigame, had I known about the shitty translation I wouldn't have bought the game...
>>
>>343127369
Maybe it is because the first one is out of thier reach to control and keep in check, while the second one makes them feel powerful for subjugating spineless craftsmen to do what they want, preferably without paying them?

just glad there was enough of an outcry that they're aware that this is not what people want and its only going to hurt the sales of their very niche games even more.
