I just beat DQ3HD. I hate that the game has like 5 songs, the same battle theme for the entire game and most of the bossfights use the generic battle theme. Most the towns and cities have the same music too. Man I wish the FFTactics composer did the music for Dragon Quest. Sorry but he is way more talented and his music is just straight up better. DQ games would be really good with a standard composer and not the overrated garbage that it has.

That was pre-emptive censorship on nintendo's part and had nothing to do with anyone actually complaining. The average christian had no idea it was happening and they definitely weren't arguing with everybody like rabid animals the way trannies do to make sure that the censorship stayed in. Plus it was 30 friggin years ago, come on.
>>
>>722713394
Truth.
>>
>>722713428
why would nintendo need to pre-emptive censor themselves if there wasn't a real worry?
>>
>>722713601
Because Nintendo is a Japanese country that was afraid of upsetting Americans. Believe it or not, there was a time when cultures knew very little about one another. When the actual, active censorship started happening, it wasn't "conservative Christians" that pushed for it, but progressive Democrats.

>>
>>722714147
None of what you said is remotely based on reality. ESRB exists because Tipper Gore, Hillary Clinton and Joe Lieberman led a censorship campaign against video games after Night Trap and Mortal Kombat.
Rockstar didn't champion anything, except get bitched at by the same three people + a grifter lawyer over "Hot Coffee" and fuck all came of it.
And the Satanic Panic is the most overblown bullshit thing to have ever not happened.
>>
forgive me if i'm wrong but in the old DQ, you don't ever actually see the actual full body picture of the characters anywhere do you? aren't they just like 8x8 top down pixel people on the screen as you walk around?
>>
>>722713771
one thing to consider is that a lot of "consultancy" companies make a lot of money on just being guys who are able to tell companies what they should do
if they don't do anything then they don't have a job so they always have to latch onto whatever major cultural trend is going on, and whatever fringe activist group is making waves at the time
back then it was a lot of satantic panic types, then it was violence in video game people, then it was lets try to localize so people don't get offended! and now its such a mess of politics that who can even say
this is the same reason why it was hard for american markets to accept that pokemon would have even be popular because marketers were making their living off telling companies that boy stuff needs to be gross and girl stuff needs to be princesses

Back in olden times, video games came with these things called "manuals". They were like small books but with pictures. Video games back then also came inside these things called "cases" which also had pictures. These pictures would be used to help kids imagine what the characters and world looked like.

here

because its clear from the start its about discussing the nature of censorship in general
or does that blow your mind?
your only response to satanic panic shit that was going on is, "durr it didn't happen"
when it did, lots of creators had to walk on egg shells, and it did influence a lot of creation
but i guess "durr didn't happen" was enough to win any argument so i'm gonna use that

Because of CERO.
Warrior has even been censored in Japan exclusive DQ titles, its literally a CERO issue first and foremost.

punk wasn't mainstream
pop was mainstream, hence why it was called pop
look at any top 40 chart from any year in the 80s you wouldn't find punk
punk seems more popular than it was because the people into it were very passionate about the movement and let it influence all the shit they will make outside of music while stuff like Wham! just haunts your mom's old cassette box

Yeah, it doesn't have anything to do with cero. That's just another one of their stupid talking points. It's all John Heinecke.

They're fine with Bs, its more about caring that it gets a C or even D. They want to keep it kid friendly.

>>722718547
It has everything to do with CERO you retard, fucking look at Maya in Heroes and then look at her in The Dark Prince, both games are CERO B, but CERO got more strict in the 8 years in between these two games.

Cool. But the argument isn't, "whether or not conservatives have ever censored popular media" you disingenuous faggot shitlib. The argument was why Nintendo self-censored it's material in the 90s and who was pushing for 90s video game censorship. Wasn't conservatives. Thanks for playing, but accept your L.

>>
>>722723249
We're not defending censorship, we're defending DQ from niggers like you who hate the series and are using censorship as an excuse to shit on it.
The censorship you cry so much about isn't even new, its fucking ancient news. Its easy to spot someone who's never touched the series just by seeing how they complain about 3HD.

You lost the argument and made a massive fool of yourself, end of discussion. If you're so sad and lonely that you need to keep on trying to egg it on with no cards in hand, that's your problem.

I've seen him mention it in /dqg/ before. He's a retard though cause DQ doesn't need any help gatekeeping, the gameplay and mostly straightforward stories gatekeep people plenty well enough already.
All he's really doing is making sure its impossible to have a decent DQ thread on /v/

Censoring crosses is weird. Even a christian nutjob wouldnt care.

>>722724513
And not buying their games anymore is the perfect way to fight back. Either The japs go bankrupt or they find their balls with both hands and tell cero to fuck off.
>>
>>722724107
how is it not related?
massive censorship happened in the 50s to where it completely changed the industry it was censorship
even if by the time in the 90s the actual CCA was all but forgotten, its echoes can still be heard since it was not the only censorship campaign that happened
this shows companies how far censorship could go. there's a lot of other examples of censorship campaigns too.
no matter how "insignificant" they were, these were organizations that had support that was trying to push into the fucking courts and government, turns out thats more effective than trying to get upvotes on twitter. So yeah, the satanic panic shit wasn't just some ignorable movement

music and movies had to fight a lot during the 80s to where mentioned before, Twisted Sister needed to go to court for their lyrics
on top of that organizations like the FCC always tried to jump into tv censorship, and were always a struggle for companies to deal with
Why the FUCK would video games be immune to all of this shit? no shit nintendo would be scared to rock the boat
how about instead of expecting a fucking history lesson every time you have a question only to deny every explanation do your own damn research for your own assumptions.
>>
>>722724585
it was probably more of a precaution if anything
but i can see that they would take offense to seeing it misused
>>
>>722724769
The CCA had nothing to do with video games.
Oh and you're bringing up that time Dee Snyder testified in front of congress. You wanna know who started that garbage? Tipper Gore. Progressive Liberal.
So again. Again. Again. Here we are again.
Also again the Satanic Panic wasn't a real thing.
>>
>>722716630

>reducing the war on censorship to MUH SIDES
we just saw this fucking year that republicans aren't the "free speech" party no matter how much they were saying they were last year. nothing has changed for them since the previous times they were in power like during bush era, reagan era, to all the way back in the the 1915s and even before that

most censorship organizations act more bipartisan than anything and have supporters from both parties and will suck up to the current administration like they have done so EVERY SINGLE TIME
always keep your eyes out for this shit, your favorite color doesn't represent you as much as you think

Because a lot of you idiots weren't alive in the 90s, or were too young to remember; a lot of the full-fledged dispensationalist Evangelical Christcuckery wasn't really a thing. At least not mainstream. The "Moral Majority" were bi-partisan, but mostly aligned with progressive liberal democrats, because only they would do what the MM's and Evangelicals wanted, and that was trying to censor media. Republicans used to not engage in media censorship back then. "We're not here to raise your children," was a common Republican/Conservative viewpoint at the time. There actually was a time when the Dems weren't big on faggots and degeneracy, in fact quite the opposite. All of that changed when Clinton was in office. Clinton had multiple sex scandals, and this pushed the prudish away from the Democrats, who had to run crying to the youth vote even harder than they did in 1992. It was Dubya that cemented the alliance between Christian busybodies and Republicans. I mean Jesus, dude. The Democrats didn't have a major branch of the party that was completely staffed by faggots back then, but the Republicans did.

Every single one of you dumb fuck dipshits only understands the post-9/11 America, and even then it's fuzzy as fuck for you until about 2007-2011. Kinda makes you wonder, doesn't it? Nah, it doesn't. Just says that you're all young as fuck. And the Satanic Panic one of you dumb queers keeps bringing up had nothing to do with video games, music, or comic books, but about that Founders Cult bullshit that ended up being some weird California thing that the feds tried to cover up. It referred to an actual thing, but not what you keep thinking it is. Dumb ass.
>>
>>722725796
>satanic panic is labubus
This tells me you're very low IQ, as you struggle with understanding a time before you were alive, and struggle even harder with grasping that politics and culture were different back then, with the same groups having different alliances and goals back then.
>>
>>722725597
We're talking about a different era, you moron. Republicans were not the ones responsible for the censorship we're discussing. Are they responsible for making porn ID laws recently? Yes. Does that have anything to do with 30-40 years ago? No.

I know this is hard for you, but try.
>>
>>722726116
so you agree, muh parties don't matter and censorship can come from anywhere
>>
>>722726179
its all censorship dude
if the core of the argument for you is to find out which color you think is at fault you really aren't interested in free speech
>>
>>722726212
And yet when I keep bringing up the fact that the censorship from the 90s that's been the topic of the thread was because of progressive liberal democrats, you get upset.
>>
>>722726010
>And the Satanic Panic one of you dumb queers keeps bringing up had nothing to do with video games, music, or comic books
D&D was a major target for these types and D&D's influence on pop culture is huge, especially video games
regardless if its "directly" related, its still related because it paints the environment at the time and what companies needed to consider, especially when they were localizing those wacky japanese games
>>
>>722726273
It's all censorship, but let the criminals be counted for their crimes. Let the truth of what they've done be heard. :)
>>
>>722726363
you're the one who is insistent on making this about parties, i'm telling you need to be warry on both parties on this shit
does that make sense?
>>
>>722726428
I can tell that you weren't alive back then, if you think that the D&D controversy was anything more than a few fringe churches having public conniption fits. Did D&D get banned? No. Was it even close? No.
It was about as ineffectual and cringeworthy as the people who whined about Pokemon and Harry Potter at their respective peaks. A few fringe retards who were reported on by the mainstream media for the populace to laugh at.
>>
>>722726503
I'm not making it about parties. Just letting it be known who was responsible for what. :)
>>
>>722717565
The right looks like he's uncomfortable
>>
>>722726532
those fringe movements join in with other movements until they get to the courts
>>
>>722726532
>>722726704
and again, even if it was fringe groups that are more worth laughter than fear
companies still see all those news articles, hire consultants to clean their shit up so they're not in the news for bad pr, those consultants then tell them to worry more and its a whole vicious cycle until there is a big success that proves its all bullshit
companies aren't exactly known for liking risks so few really want to be the trailblazer for that stuff
and if something is a moderate success it doesn't matter that much to companies scared of rocking the boat

conservatives have never successfully censored video games (unless you count mudslimes getting the zelda music changed) because the people who make vidya don't respect conservatives. when fox news did a hit piece on mass effect for having sex scenes they doubled down and put gay sex scenes in 2.

Western comic books or Star Wars most likely and I technically wouldn't consider the later being "armor". I doubt either was such a new concept. Its mostly just "gladiator but women" so anyone could have come up with the concept.

>>722726913
You're such a demonic little faggot. No, little degenerate shitlib, the church isn't coming for you and your gay little hobbies.
