What game censorship happens that isn't just altering the amounts of boobs There was that huge debacle a few years ago when Senran Kagura fans got pissed off that they censored a mode where all you did was grope and rub the little girls in the game. Then there was some hullabaloo because the Final Fantasy 8 remaster very slightly changed Siren's model so she didn't just have her vagina hanging out. <cite>TMOG posted [p:971677351] in Strange wo...

Intro2Logic 02/19/23 6:33:09 PM #21:	It seems to me that there are a couple factors at play: children's fiction specifically gets altered to keep up with the times, because children are thought to be particularly vulnerable to certain content in media. Think of how many Disney movies are based on fairy tales that were a lot more violent in the 18th century. In an era where every media property is a potential multimedia franchise, you're going to see companies that want to promote older works without signing on to everything contained therein. --- Have you tried thinking rationally? <cite>Intro2Logic posted [p:971677577] in Strange wo...
