>Rideon has just confirmed that Brave x Junction will be coming to North American and European territories on December 22, with adjusted outfits for some of the characters for Nintendo’s approval. Specifically the fighter’s and the magician’s outfits have been changed. The original version of the game will still be available in the Japanese eShop, with the North American and European versions being a separate app.First Dispatch and now this.... Nintendobros.... I don't feel so good...
>>728845412You will buy it anyway.
What x What? Literally x Who?
>>728845412Not my problem
Top original looks dumb. Wouldn't play
>>728845492i will download it for free and use the de-censor patch
>>728845618 Spoken like a true backlog warrior. At this point, half these niche games drop with so many caveats it's easier to just ignore the western releases entirely and pretend they don't exist. Might as well import a Japanese eShop card and play it the way the devs intended.
>>728845850>pirate an indie instead of purchasing the game from the JP EshopI guess any excuse to get shit for free
>>728845412Now imagine an Etrian Odyssey 6 being made for current Nintendo.Nintendo actually needs to finally go bankrupt. I'm so happy they had a terrible Black Friday/Holiday.
the shiteaters will defend it and say it looks better now
>>728845412This should be an option.
>>728845492Yeah, on Steam. And Decky verified!https://store.steampowered.com/app/3364830/Brave_x_Junction/
>>728845412what happened with dispatch?
>>728845995Which is why I couldn't give much a damn about western releases since I buy all the Japanese games on the Japanese Eshop anyway.Western releases of JP stuff have always been some kind of russian roulette for decades between shit translations, altered visuals, etc. but I guess the average /v/ user is too young to remember this (or actually give a shit beyond generating outrage online)>>728846437iirc the game banner is censored on the American Eshop by removing the boob window and cleavages, while the banner remains normal on the European and Australian one.
I can't buy this in the UK on Steam even though a single nipple isn't shown.
>>728845412skirt version is hotter anyway
>People bitching about censorship since the 2000's>Censorship has kept getting more invasive.Not to beat a dead horse, but what exactly does bitching about it in 2025+1 really do? You guys had decades to do something about it and nothing has happened except more censorship. Are people bitching really not getting into management roles unlike the people you bitch about?
If you really care about tits in games... You are a fucking retard.
>>728846798My main issue is with our own governments. Why the fuck are the USA and Europe treated as a single area? European children's comics would give American publishers a seizure but when it comes to games we suddenly are just as puritan?
>>728845412Bought it on Dlsite, consolefags can get fucked.
>>728846798I don't think even OP (and most anons too) remotely cares about the game itself, modern Internet these days is all about getting angry at stuff and, like you said, do nothing in the end since getting a job in management would require true effort and dedication.Western branches of Nintendo randomly deciding that Japanese games don't get hosted (or else) in the West isn't something new either, I remember I had to purchase Metallic Child and Little Witch Nobeta both on the Japanese Eshop in 2021 as they weren't available in the European eshop anyway.
>>728845412Not really news because I'm not going to play anything Nintendo related.
>>728846798No, you see it's different this time, Nintendo has long since the PS3 days been used as the defacto uncensored platform championed by the coomerfags and tendiefags. Now they're no different, while the coomerfags will easily move on and attach themselves to the next thing (gacha faggotry), the tendies, as cuked as they are are now forced to accept that uncah tendo isn't really their friend
>>728848489>since getting a job in management would require true effort and dedication.Management is for people who dicksuck the hardest and the actual people that work have to content with said managers.
>>728848732>attaching themselves to gachaI wish them luck in Europe. Multiple countries already didn't get a bunch of games here. We didn't even get Project Sekai, PSO2NG and Umamusume. The rest of the EU will probably eventually ban all gacha as well.
>>728848458It's uncensored on nogaems 5 as far as I know.
>>728848775>Management is for people who dicksuck the hardest and the actual people that work have to content with said managers.That means you have to play pretend depending of the situation and build a network of contacts but the average autistic /v/ anon is certainly not up to these tasks.>>728848732>Nintendo has long since the PS3 days been used as the defacto uncensored platform championed by the coomerfags and tendiefagswhat the fuck is this historical revisionism
>>728849116>That means you have to play pretend depending of the situation and build a network of contacts but the average autistic /v/ anon is certainly not up to these tasks.Most people actually value integrity since we all live in trust-based societies.And most people have trouble fraternizing with people that openly flaunt politics they don't like.It's actually the reason why the other half of management is often filled with high-functioning psychopaths, they literally thrive in such situations.
>>728846798>You guys had decadesIf bitching didn't do anything (You) wouldn't be telling us to stop. People are going to keep "noticing", just get over it, push your bullshit through and accept the backlash. People would respect you infinitely more.
>>728845412>na/eu>Nintendo
>>728845412I thought the west values freedom of expression wtf is this CCP shit lmaoooooo
>>728845412>buy Japanese version>it plays in EnglishNeat
>>728846798For every anon that complains about censorship, there's a redditor in full support of it, and a dozen npc consumers who don't care.
>>728849858>I don't like it so it should be banned>You've got to play by EU and US rules, just ignore epstein fucking real children by the thousands, it doesn't count>literally think of the children
>>728845412Yup, will still not buy censored games
>>728845412Fix'd
>>728849858in my honest opinion I think these people should be killed in real life, just an opinion of course haha
>>728849591>>728849858The anon is still right that it's nothing more than online virtue-signaling (regardless of either side of the argument) and procrastinationThat's said, the last reply in the screenshot is funny. >young teen female characters in games marketed for teens is a problemayy lmao
>>728845412>First DispatchBut dispatch isn't censored?
>>728850219>The anon is still right that it's nothing more than online virtue-signaling (regardless of either side of the argument) and procrastinationThere's massive communication issues between devs and the final users, people thought social medias would solve that issue but it's only used as an echo chamber for the most politized devs.The current result are people bitching in any way they can to make themselves heard or review bombing when a dev makes a shitty update.And whenever the latter happen, the dev is always dumbfounded because his echo chamber told him that it was good.And it's even worse for bigger devs as they have several middleman that are all more or less politized before your plea even reach the right people in a completely bastardized form.
>giving Nintendon't money
>>728846798>>728848417>>728848732>>728849591>>728849858Neither the people doing the censoring, nor the biggest Redditors, nor ultra-leftist, nor the people doing the bitching about said censorship have fuck-all to say in the matter.All it takes is one polite message from a payment processor/payment gateway about the possibility for a given company to be cut-off, and they HAVE TO bend over backwards to acquiesce, no matter whether they're AAA behemoths or some indie basement dweller.
>>728845412I tried to post this thread yesterday and couldn't because rangebanned. At least someone did it.>>728852997>Neither the people doing the censoring, nor the biggest Redditors, nor ultra-leftist, nor the people doing the bitching about said censorship have fuck-all to say in the matter.For one, they create the cultural consensus that allows these major actors to justify their censorship. Look at Sony using #MeToo to ban Senran Kagura and Dead or Alive. For two, who do you think they're hiring to these positions to begin with? Have you forgotten that American colleges are an assembly line for these sorts?
>>728845412The fact dispatch is on switch at all is cringe while anime games get banned like Neptunia
>>728854003Wasn't Dispatch censored too though?
The skirt is an improvement
>>728845412>uncensored on playstation>censored on nintendowild, are we reverting to the old days?
>>728856454Playstation still hasn't really been tested with something as risque as what they used to allow like Senran Kagura or Genkai Tokki. This and Neptunia are only Teen-rated, they're nowhere close to what we used to get on the Vita. I bet when tested, they'll fail and show they're still the same Snoy as 2018, just less proactive now. The actual reality is that the Overton Window for acceptable expression on major platforms has just shrunk dramatically from a decade ago. Nintendo was pretty much the last holdout that accepted these games with little to no fuss or strings attached.
>>728849858>a dozen npc consumers who don't care.They do care, they want it censored that's why they always pop up out of nowhere just to tell everyone they "don't care", every time anyone talks about censorship they pop up saying they don't care to demoralize you
>>728857164Those are the Redditors pretending to be the latter group for the reasons you described. What he was actually talking about was the normalfag types who don't care because these games never hit their radar to begin with and so it doesn't matter to them enough to get them to care.
>>728845412I like the skirt better than the no skirt but the uncensored top is better
I joined Steam just because Nintendo can't be trusted to import good games anymore without butchering them.Unfortunately, Steam's Review team is also a giant bag of dicks.
>>728857640It's starting to feel like you need to be an idort to play uncensored games because Sony, Nintendo, and Valve all randomly censor different things.
>>728857763they truly do. it's maddening.
>>728857763I can stick to Nintendo just fine by just buying things from the Japanese Eshop like I've been doing for years, and as mentioned earlier, there were already Japanese titles that never were released on western shores like Metallic Child (back in 2021 so schizos are quite late to the outrage).
>>728857640I joined GOG because they're not as anti-anime as the other platforms (and because offline installers are cool). But it probably doesn't have more than 20k users and is missing a lot of the games I want that are on Steam. It's just fucked now no matter where you go.>>728857763That's assuming those uncensored games will be made to begin with. Remember, multiplat is the industry meta now, and publishers have shown they would rather just self-censor to ensure approval across platforms than deal with every platform's individual policies. Do you see Compile Heart, Inti Creates, Marvelous or D3P still making ecchi games anywhere?
>>728857906>English native can't readmany such cases
>>728857763It's all intentional, that's why they won't publish official guidelines. Now Devs have to essentially guess what may or may not get them into trouble.
>>728845412It's not a big deal. It's really only a problem when sony or microsoft censor stuff.
>>728850328Is Dispatch censored on the Switch? Because raking Nintendo over the coals for that sounds like fun.
>>728846798You retard, things were distinctly getting better up until SNOY fucked everything in 2018.
>>728859162It's a big deal when any major platform censors something because that goes into development considerations for the future. Publishers don't just wanna drop Nintendo as a platform when the Switch has an install base in the millions and the Switch 2 is steadily growing as well, they'll just become more hesitant to make the "offending" content in the future. Are you going to sell your Switch and boycott the Switch 2 over this? If even you as a consumer without a business on the line can't do it, what makes you think they want to?
>>728857981>I joined GOG because they're not as anti-anime as the other platforms>rejects uncensored Tokyo Clanpool as well>also region locks a bunch of shit (like LoveR Kiss when it isn't even an eroge)Everyone fucking sucks.
The only ones seething at this are retarded snoys.
>>728852997>they HAVE TO bend over backwardsSome of them do. Many of them don't. Steam is the best example. Steam is big enough and well liked enough that if visa and mastercard had made good on their threat, there would have been legislation passed the next day designating payment processing an essential service, stripping them of the right to refuse business for any reason other than non-payment.
>>728845412Is this like Dispatched that only the art in the Nintendo Store got censored or it got censored in game too?
>>728859526Fuck off. Nintendo have their reasons for doing this.
>>728859162yeah sure, NOBODY complains when nintendo censors stuff, /v/ didn't have YEARS of threads about FE fates or TMS#FE censorship or anything!fuck off with your victim complex faggot, censorship is ALWAYS bad, this has nothing to do with your console wars.
>>728859947And those reasons are dumb.
>>728845412Is the game even any good?
>>728859926This one is in-game too because it's Japanese and anime instead of western and cartoon, so it's held to different standards.
>>728860116It's Blackjack with a twist.
>>728845412The funny thing is that Sony straight up banned Majogami and Steam almost did the same thing from their store. So what anybody can or can't do is just depending on the person in charge when they ask.
>>728859896I think your view is naive.Players who oppose censorship would start to be considered "chuds", "fascists", "far right", "pedophiles", etc., while modern gay parents would start to agree that a store that sells children's toys (Westerners still think video games are toys, even though in 1980 the Japanese were already using the medium to portray themes of rape, violence, explicit sex, horror, the occult, political conspiracies, etc.) should not expose poor little children to women wearing low-cut tops.Steam wouldn't stand a chance, actually. Neither would anti-censorship advocates.Just look at what happens when you go anywhere on the internet and ask for translations of Japanese games to be faithful to the original text, something that is considered obvious in any media, but when you demand the same standard for video games as literature has, you are immediately bombarded from all sides as if you were some kind of crypto-Nazi Hitler-worshipping villain, and the fucking brainwashed Americans will accept this fucking distraction without thinking twice.
>>728846370This is exactly what I was gonna say.
>>728859974>>728860019Fuck off snoyshits. Haven't you got some games to be playing? Oh wait that's right you have NO GAMES!
>>728848732>Nintendo has long since the PS3 days been used as the defacto uncensored platform championed by the coomerfags and tendiefagsBitch what? Nintendo has always been known as one of the shittiest platforms for censorship.
>>728845412cucktendo
>>728860739False flaggers used to at least TRY and hide what they were doing.
>>728860791yeah, the sad truth is there was a short window after the Switch came out that had little to no censorship, and its getting more and more clear that's just a side effect of removing the region lock and that NoA hadn't time to get their censorship pipeline adjusted yet.
>>728859474>Is Dispatch censored on the Switch?No it isn't. So I wonder why OP is calling out Dispatch.
>>728845412Same day Sony ups their pro censorship ante to retroactivly censor anything anybody bought on their consoles>>728851806
>>728845412But is the game good?
>>728859526I always hated this. Back when it started they were still retards who were claiming Nintendo didn't censor anything - Yeah, because they pushed studios into a state of self-censorship, so that they could have the cake and eat it too.
>>728845412>Midriff unchanged>Added ZRDo they know?
>>728861450see >>728846659>iirc the game banner is censored on the American Eshop by removing the boob window and cleavages, while the banner remains normal on the European and Australian one.
>>728845412I think both the designs are ugly personally, just look cheap.
>>728861763Game?
>>728861763>>728860256
>>728845412>AIEEE BUTT'S AND BOOBS PLEASE SHIELD MY EYES NIGGERSAMMA!!! Why are westoids so fucking pathetic?
It's a shame, specially when PC gaming sucks nowdays.
>>728845412This is actually on PSN completely uncensored, surprisingly.I bought it.In case anyone is curious, it’s a 6/10 game. The translation is shoddy/repetitive, but the art is great. The actual gameplay is extremely simple, and you usually either dominate or get dominated due to how damage works.
>>728862886>The translation is shoddy/repetitiveReally? It seemed fine in the demo.>The actual gameplay is extremely simple, and you usually either dominate or get dominated due to how damage works.The demo was only one dungeon run, so how much is there to the game outside of that? Much to do in towns? Much story?
>>728862603I can only hope what I have now can run enough Indie and Ecchi games to tie me over for awhile.
>>728862032The corrosive, west destroying influence of feminism. The most useful of idiots.
>>728846370I don’t remember making this post but it’s definitely something I would say.
>>728864931its crazy because feminism used to support the opposite. the digital slut shaming we see nowadays is pretty much everything OG feminists fought against. almost like their movement got co-opted and taken away from them.
>Japan birthrate plummeting>Worst Korean under the thumb of feminists>China literally imploding under the weight of their cardboard McSkyscrapers>b-b-but at least they get to see the asshole of underaged anime girls!I genuinely have to wonder if third worlders don’t see the correlation between degenerate decadence and the death of a society, or if this is just all part of their plan.
>>728845412More games like this? added to my wishlist
>>728865163>said the indian rape baby
>>728865163>Japan birthrate plummetingreddit myth. Japan's birthrate issues aren't even an outlier among any first world countries.
Japan will be saved only if CERO stops bitching about panties so much.
>>728846370Was just about to post this.
>>728865163Meanwhile, porn is banned in India and any muslim nation.
>>728861913>on the American EshopLol, lmao. It's not censored in Europe. What's wrong in America? Either way. I can only assume that there isn't anything censored in-game. Still retarded though.Actually. Isn't this like false advertising or something? To have censored assets on the store page specifically.
>>728865115That's what happens to all movements once their initial goal is accomplished. Nobody wants to just dust their hands and say job well done. No, they have to justify themselves so they come up with a new oppression.
>>728861913>>728866165eShop censorship is very common, but unrepresentative of the final product.
>>728845492>remove element from game which make it appealing>people go to competition>NOOOOOOOOOO YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BUY IT ANYWAY
Here, in case you wanna play a better blackjack game.
>>728866270that tracks, its just a shame they got used to fight against their own progress.
>>728845412So no one is going to buy it, because the main audience this game is aimed for will not like the censorship. Was this to keep the rating low? This girl is not loli.
>>728867362It was done because Nintendo told the devs that they were "illegaly sexualizing children" (never mind that PlayStation is selling it uncensored). Nothing to do with CERO or anything that was in the devs control
<
>>728865115>>728867178There was never any point in which feminism was ever in favor of men's entertainment or hobbies being uncensored. They're the ones that passed Prohibition, for fuck's sake. The "pro-slut" thing was entirely about absolving women of any accountability for their actions or choice of decor whatsoever, not about letting men have unrestricted access to anime boobies that they feel compete with them for attention. It has always been nothing more than politicized tribalism for women with a healthy dose of misandrism on top.
>>728867025What game?
>>728868676>The "pro-slut" thing was entirely about absolving women of any accountability for their actions or choice of decor whatsoever, not about letting men have unrestricted access to anime boobies that they feel compete with them for attentionit may not have been their motivation, but if their goal was to actually normalize sexuality, then they were fighting for anime tiddies, they just didn't know it. they're the ones always saying "the things we see in media affect how we view the real world" when they talk about sexualization, they can't argue that and then pretend modern censorship ISN'T just a digital form of slut shaming.
>>728867362>Was this to keep the rating low? This girl is not loli.Ratings considerations have had almost no relevance in censorship for a decade at this point. The vast, vast majority of censorship happening now is for reasons other than age ratings.
>>728869002yep, and its fucking insane. I'd love to force these people to explain to shareholders why they're wasting time and money doing extra content checks on stuff that already has an ESRB rating.
>>728845721No no no, the tranny answer is the new one looks better! Then you put your lipstick on.
japan has 1 real problem. too many foreigners killing the nation. Most countries need less people, specially africa and what not.
>>728865163People who fap to anime girls tend to keep to themselves.The actual degenerates are the one currently in power and they spend their time shitting and censoring anime girls.>I genuinely have to wonder if third worlders don’t see the correlation between degenerate decadence and the death of a societyYou should ask yourself the same for your own country.
Here's the other censored design cause no one posted it yet
>>728870056>literally same image but no skin allowed and one boob line removedCensorship is so fucking absurd and retarded
>>728868965>but if their goal was to actually normalize sexualityIt wasn't, their goal was to normalize women being able to tease and blueball men without consequences. They want to be able to be strut around and be provocative without men being able to act on them. It was entirely about setting up women's power over men by teasing and then denying them; basically a humiliation ritual. This is an encapsulation of the mindset behind feminism. It was never about equality, they want power and control over men.In other words, they wanted to normalize female sexuality and ONLY female sexuality. And they succeeded; we now live in a world where women's degenerate erotica is freely sold in the open at Barnes and Noble's and no one complains, while men jerk off to anime titties on the Vita and suddenly everyone jumps on the censorship train and acts like it's an imminent threat to society. Even mainstream conservatives are so shot through with this mindset that they will only ever criticize male sexuality and frame it in feminist terms. Because women's sexuality has successfully been normalized as natural and innocuous, while men's sexuality is evil and predatory and must be strictly controlled.
>>728848489>I remember I had to purchase Metallic Child and Little Witch Nobeta both on the Japanese Eshop in 2021 as they weren't available in the European eshop anyway.That's probably less a Nintendo thing and more a Eurocuck thing.
>>728865163The birth rate is below replacement rate in every single first world nation, including all of Europe.I don't know why you keep grinding this argument out when everyone with a brain knows how retarded you are.
>>728846084Segay and Fatlus would get a pass because they're too big to fuck with.
>>728846665Steam really is fucking retarded for both forcing non porn games to be marked as adult only just because they dare to have a anime art style and for ignoring the age of user's Steam accounts for age verification.
>>728845412Good. Coomers deserve nothing.
>>728857640I dont think they ever intended for full nudity in that game.
>>728847127yeah, you'd need to be retarded to censor them
If you don't care about tits in games, you're fucking stupid.
