Edit: Seems like the english AND japanese text were both altered in the remaster to be more "politically-correct"

Edit 2: This reminds me that @albert the programmer made a post earlier in the thread about the ethics department within Square-Enix so it seems the CT debacle is further cementing the fact
As someone that was looking forward to wanting to play the Chrono Cross remastered version of this, I’m both not surprised but also disappointed. It looks like I’ll just have to find and play the PS1 version, or find a ROM to play it on.
 
Like the creepy dudes who use male feminism as a shield against criticism of their degeneracy, so do these coombrains hide behind "anti censorship" to justify their mental illness.
That's pretty much it, that's the core of this whole anti-censorship movement.

The day the last coomer is strangled by their dirty cumsocks is the day we are finally free.
 
Literally every censorship argument in this whole thread has been him defending a minor. He's negrated me over 1000 times for it. I don't think there's any helping him at this point.
Not to mention I don't take these mask-off coomers seriously since they were the same people who cheered when US states literally censored a gay marriage episode of fucking ARTHUR. So anything they say on being outraged or championing sexual issues doesn't warrant a piss drop of respect.

@Banannasplit and his tribe aren't "Anti Censorship" they're just another "Anti Something I Don't Like But Don't You Dare Touch Something I Coom To"

Yeah that's pretty accurate. I've encountered my fair share of those types outside of here myself.

Most of them just don't like games as games and have them be an outlet for their sexual desires. Shit like gameplay systems and the like don't seem to be priority to them it's all about giving into the need to orgasm.
 
Yeah that's pretty accurate.
And again, I'm not even outraged about the Coomer material really. I know the exploitation stuff l personally am drawn to in the realm of violence inhabits a neighboring niche, but I just can't take the fucking hipocrisy of being outraged by someone not having loli panty shots while screaming in the next breath about seeing two gay anthro characters getting married or a girl having an OnlyFans.
 
Dude...9 year old. Not the hill to die on. You'll do fine without seeing her panties.

Do you lack reading comprehension or are you this genuinely disingenuous (perhaps both) by any chance? Just like Marissa Moira.
I'm starting to believe people who seriously use the discord meme of "coomer" (to label anything remotely attractive) actually lacks some brain cells and can only think things in black-and-white and extreme ways.

I dislike game censorship through localization because it's disrespectful to the artists, writers and other people who worked on the projects and their legacy. I don't like woke stuff when they infect existing IPs originally made by other people but I can stand up against censorship when woke devs do their own creations (and why I never liked OAG Billy's hypocrisy). Is it that hard to believe in such principle?

Blame it on the right wingers popularizing the term, jack. I've been slapped with that label in conversations not even involving porn or fanservice.

So do I. But I also don't turn around when it's something that offends Western Civilization or Traditional Values or similar.

I'd like to think it isn't, but as I said, do you yell about the lack of loli panties in one go, and in another thread lament Mr. Ratburn getting married to another man as destroying civilization and censoring it to "protect the children" as NoBS said? If not, you're not actually who I'm talking about.

Wait, the US actually censored that episode? PBS actually censored it? I mean I knew China and such probably did, but that's a new one to me. I never watched the episode, but I think it was dumb that they celebrated it because it's not exactly brave these days. Plus I don't like the idea of any sexuality or whatever being introduced to children, but it was a marriage. There's no sex involved in marriage.

I won't exactly celebrate it being censored, but I will laugh. The fact is they do everything they can to shut down dialogue they don't like - even going so far as to hassle payment processors to deny financing - and when it happens to them they lack the self awareness to realize it's bad for everyone, they just think that they've been wronged. When you have people like that you can't exactly go easy on them because they never learn, they can't hope to get better and they're always gonna be stuck in that particular pit. OAG is the same bullshit, he didn't try to learn at all and was just a Newtonian reaction to the entire thing.

For example look at how the localizers freaked the fuck out when there was a literal translation option for River City Girls. They didn't think that people wanted it, they saw it as an attack on their person. They don't realize that both can exist and I doubt they'll ever accept the possibility either. That's why I take a "burn it all down" attitude these days. It's not like I want the fundies in charge again - although 4Kids were very creative in how they did their magic - but honestly I love seeing these self righteous pricks take a hit, like I used to with the fundies. They both basically are fundamentalists anyways.

At some point I'd like to think things can go back to how they were and people be sensible... yet I'm not exactly gonna hold my breath either. I will go golfing, though.

You're talking about multiple groups.

The people who wanted gay characters on arthur are not the same people who shut down payment processors. They totally different individuals and corporate groups.

River City girls translation options don't mean much since the game has only a paragraph or two of text. It's not word heavy period. Compared to something like Kiseki which has more words than all of harry potter combined for a single game and now they're up to 10 games.

They overlap. Nothing is segregated. Everything is a Venn diagram of bullshit.

Otherwise you - as in you, personally - would be able to separate @BananaSplit from OAG.

Several states refused to air it, and the usual crowd of anti-SJW types got erections on their YT channels about that.

Though I sympathize with your attitude, since as you said, these guys long ago established themselves as bizarro world fundies.

Best to stay golfing. The world's gonna get a lot more retarded before it gets sane again.

That's the problem though. Is the slippery slope real or is it not? Are we supposed to hold companies to their own standards, or not?

Netflix is a great example. They censored Cowboy Bebop and made Cuties.

There's also a case of context. If you buy Dead or Alive Beach Vollyball, you know what you're getting. You buy Battletoads or The Last of Us 2 expecting a sequel to a beloved game and you get some hacks degenerate porn, people are right to complain. Put gay sex scenes in a cartoon made for adults, fine. Put them into cartoons made for kids, not okay.

Like SiccDicc said, I'm not going to cry when these people get a taste of their own medicine. When they fall victim to the very system they created. We told them that it'd bite them in the arse, but they ignored us. When it bites them in the arse and they run to our side for help, I laugh at them.


a girl having an OnlyFans
OnlyFans is a completely different can of worms. It's real life for one thing. I don't approve of it, but that's on them if they make that choice.
 
I'd like to think it isn't, but as I said, do you yell about the lack of loli panties in one go, and in another thread lament Mr. Ratburn getting married to another man as destroying civilization and censoring it to "protect the children" as NoBS said?

At least learn to know your surroundings better before throwing baseless accusations on me. If whatever I said in the previous page (such as internet weirdos shouldn't be used to discredit objective information of visual and script differences in videogames) makes me somehow a despicable person, then you need to take a break from the internet for a while.

And that's more or less what as I feared as I was implying in the previous page, there will be people to act disingenuous as hell and pull a knee-jerk "ur a pedo" whenever someone will try to talk about the text localization in the Chrono Trigger remaster.
 
All panty and lolishit is being actively removed by CERO for even B and C rated stuff it's not surprising.

Hell Gust has even removed panties for many of their games and they don't even have an ethics department and this is for all regions.

Putting the blame on Square Enix's ethics department misses the point that this is just a larger cultural trend in general, not just one lone ethics dapartment. Because they made th ethics department in the first place since there was outlying requests and legal circumstances for one to exist.
Look dude I know your whole persona is to be as contrary as humanly possible but you're laying it on a bit thick. This level of cocksucking soulless mega corps is unnecessary.

As pointed out, though, it wasn't even a sex scene, it was a marriage ceremony..

And hol' up; was there actual full on porn in TLOU2?

it shows two people having sex but you don't really see anything like a porno would show. It's a step below what you would see on an HBO show.

CERO isn't a mega corp. It's standards and practices are what megacorps have to adhere by. I'm saying Square had to open up an Ethics department because of regulations and legislation.
