How did this “make light of rape,” exactly? All I see is mockery of Kotaku’s infusion of progressive gender politics into video game journalism.

I like that they explain it, but at the same time no money from me if you censor it. I don’t buy that these games would end up being adult only if they didn’t censor them, other companies don’t seem to have that problem even ones showing full frontal nudity and sex are M Rated.

Why say “idiot moron” when you can just say “millennial”?

Wouldn’t the obvious solution be “I dont like the mod, so I won’t download it”?

If you believe creative process is directed by a social agenda, then there is a problem with you...

Read the article, sjw. That’s not why they are angry...

““I consciously add as much diversity as I can to my writing”

There’s a difference between creating new experiences with the diversity that we see today and shoehorning them into a 17 year old game. But it’s whatever to be honest. Their game, their decision.

It’s Liberty leading the People:

I think Kotaku is the same way lol.

It’s different side of the same coin. While some countries uses legal standard to enforce certain changes, countries like USA rely on more social factors, and the pressure of stepping too far into becoming legal issues. The biggest reason why companies use ESRB is to avoid the government from stepping in and outright…

And people will think that they are lunatics because articles like this are written to give people that opinion. I don’t play JRPGs, I don’t follow chan stuff, I don’t follow tumblr drama, but I recognize that I have nerdy hobbies that could easily be turned against me. I feel that this is one of those articles that…

You know what the worst thing is? while everyone complains about a fake bunch of pixels wearing a bikini, REAL teen girls are sexualized in American media every day.

While the “slippery slope” aspect is what has me most concerned... But we’re basically proving everyone right by getting incredibly outraged and going on witch-hunts and boycotts because someone shows up who’s opinion varies from our own on the matter.

NeoGafs handful of mods are seriously insane when it comes to any discussion that they don’t like, even if your level headed. Don’t even dare try commenting in anything related to Anita sarkessian or anything else PC and dare even try to take a neutral side. You’ll get a nice “this isn’t on topic...BANNED” or “Your…

Yeah, the whole argument that wanting the original contents to remain true = pedophilia is ridiculous and have no connection. It’s like saying those who love shooting/killing games/gore are murder loving psycho/sociopaths.

“But Lin is only 13! What if putting her into a bikini turns me into a pedophile?”

I joined kinja just to star this post. I’ve been following the Xenoblade discussion (and playing the hell out of it) for a while now. The debate always falls back on Lin when that’s only a small part of what’s been altered. It’s too bad such a lengthy article misses the majority of the issue for the sake of a more…

You do realize that closed captions on live TV and music videos are also censored right? And that there can be varying levels of censorship?

It really just makes me more worried about future games, like Fire Emblem Fates mostly. And hell even Xenoblade Chronicles X.
