How is sony accepting refunds and stating they falsely advertised proof of sony being the bad guy? Wouldn't that make sony the good guy? >t. I have no idea what's going on
It's not about who censored what, it's about the fact that it quite literally used "We will never be censored even a teensie bit" as an advertising angle, then got censored twice.
>Stellar blade dare to step out of their line and mess with Sony's no sexy straight women policy >Pressure them to censor costumes behind the scene >Approve all the refunds easily to reduce the sales so they can make the game fail
You are either a shill or just moronic.
you can't just say 'behind the scenes' like it means fricking anything
why would a company, who wants to release an uncensored game, who is LITERALLY MARKETING their game as being uncensored, make their game a PS5 exclusive? and then you gays cry over sony with zero proof and dick suck the actual company that straight up lied to you?

Snoy is run by ideology. A bunch of the Horizon people are running the gaming division. They are manipulators and are driven by "ideals". They have no issue to sabotage their own products in order to achieve a le the greater good ie woke cancer. If it were up to them, all of their success games would be Spider-Man 2-tier
It's probably because sony told them to censor right away bit the asiatic devs proceeded to lie about it on twitter anyway.
Makes sense cause the asiatic devs responded now on twitter and said they wanted the outfits to be changed anyway from the start and that the new censored version were their true final form
>sony wants to be the good guys always >also wants to screw shift up >gets exclusivity for their sexy game that was announced as a multiplat >forces them to censor the game, blames everything on shift up and gives refunds to people
yeah
Literally days before release promising the game would be uncensored when there was a day 0 patch censoring the game.

Notice the manipulation >Deal to censor the game >Actually shift Up IS the villain here we are the good ones, totally not the ones who requested the Game to be censored >Try to ruin the only coomer game they have reputation
Sony never claimed the game would be uncensored. The false advertising is entirely on Shift Up, not Sony. Maybe Shift Up shouldn't have made promises they can't keep.
Lmao that reply is the textbook definition of psychological projection. He's seething so hard that somebody else was more autistic than him but at the same time saying others are upset. It's even worse because the post he replied to is completely neutral. Lance is such an egocentric homosexual
do you truly believe the stellar blade twitter account would be allowed to tweet that there won't be any censorship without consulting with sony first?
Uh, yes. Have you seen the stupid shit the people in charge of social media for corporate accounts say all the time? Contrary to popular belief, they don't have to get legal to sign off on every single tweet before they make it.
Yes, you are.
Not denying false claims made by the very people that you hired to make a game is part of your responsibilities as a publisher. Next thing you are going to say that Sony didn't have control over the developing process, either.
It's a screenshot of a nichegamer article
https://nichegamer.com/sony-now-internally-regulates-sexual-content-in-video-games/
Sourced from The Wall Street Journal quoting Sony
https://www.wsj.com/articles/sony-cracks-down-on-sexually-explicit-content-in-games-11555427944
Because Snoy also has a very strong precedent for censoring stuff. They killed Senran Kagura and bascially genocided all of their other weeb fanservice games and forced them to move to the Switch.
Wasn't there also a thing with Devil May Cry 5 having censorship on Sony Playstation only?
Or am I remembering wrong?
Your Kim guy came out and blabbed about "artistic integrity" or whatever, and said a lot of different shit. Taking pictures like Kojima, and even with Kojima, and runs a successful gacha brand. He has the power to tell Sony anything he wants.
He fricking lied. It's in his face the whole time.
lol stop defending shithead developers
no one is actually stopping these developers from releasing their games exactly as advertised
why didnt baldurs gate didnt get the censor hammer?
They don't care about it because western nudity is "mature" and "brave". The women are often uglier too.
Asian and anime adjacent nudity is "childish" and "problematic".
>Omega Labyrinth Z was blocked from being release by Sony
it was released though
it was banned in some western countries (not by sony, but by the countries themselves)
sony didnt censor the game
shit up also did this with their mobile game, or do you think sony censored that too
shit up censored the game and then lied about it, not sony
fricking moron
You frickers are high on copium, you literally don't want to accept that shift up is the reason behind the censorship when they have been doing this for a while, sony had nothing to do with this, you just don't want to accept that your headcanon based company is not different from the rest
do you have more examples? don't fall for falseflagging homosexuals
In
yeah...
the in-game client has the MORE risque picture, shift up editted it to be more revealing from its original
There's another idiot who posts the red cheerleader as ragebait, when all they did was removed the topmost layer to show her panties underneath, and pretend it's the uncensored version
But the problem is shit up themselves. He lies A LOT. Sure Snyo likes to censor shit but shit up being as big as they are right now had no reason to suck snoy dick and bend their asses. Shit up is just as pathetic
That is not the point, Black person. The point is that they are both cancerous companies that censor shit and you shouldn't buy from either of them. Shift up doesn't get a pass for repeatedly censoring their garbage just because sony is also involved, you disingenuous c**t.
troony, we don't expect you to finally understand that you won't curb critiques by telling us off since you can't even understand you'll never be a woman despite looking in the mirror and seeing a man.

If you go too lewd your game becomes johren/niche hentai territory. In polls and such the lewdest bikinis are not the ones to win, because people prefer fashion and style
Also a lot of waifugays dislike vulgar >But!
Nobody stops them proclaimed coomers to support Taimanin, Eversoul, etc. But reality is that coomers barely Talk about coomer games and prefer outrage culture
This means if I make a gacha with the lewdest bikinis you wont talk about it, but instead you will talk about a a censored less lewd one and you will give me free advertising
Balance point = normies and female fans. A lot of artists drawing Saber or even Nikke girls are females
Shift Up already made a horny gacha before and it flopped until they reached the balance zone
It's the same with Blue Archive. Most of the most popular characters are unironically safe horny
Yes. Believe it or not nips dislike vulgar. Precure creators also said no panties meant more fans trying to imagine whats under, and precure is really popular with men too
Cute is simply more popular.
This is why I dislike coomers posers, since they refuse to support real coomer games and instead spend all day crying over games clearly not made for a hentai public in mind

Precure is a solidly female franchise anon. The first season was the only one that aimed to garner male fans, all modern precure is designed solely to sell toys to little girls. They hate sexuality because the entire point is they carved out the perfect niche to sell to little girls. In the anime realm precure is THE little girl show. Of course they distance themselves from coomers

Coomers also want sex and nudity in their games you fricking moron, not just ecchi.
Bullshit some h visual novels sold shit load on steam. H games being jap only or blocked by western stores is what hurt it. If H wasn’t blocked on consoles it would sell too
I mean, once you're done fapping are you gonna keep watching porn?
Same thing for games, when you're done fapping to a clothed woman you can ignore the sexiness and keep playing.
If the woman's naked how do you ignore the sexiness?
if you had to choose a wife, would you pick the sexy clothed woman or the sexy naked bawd?, people like "characters", these games profit from lonely clingy gays, if she takes her clothes off she is tainted and pornographic, it literally becomes a "just watch porn" situation
It feels to me like if you make a game TOO horny it starts to just feel like porn and sort of dehumanizes the girls and you don't really get attached to them like you do in more safe horny games
There is still a heavy stigma on porn games, and games that borderline on porn. Few people will want to be members of a community for a game that is just smut. Garbage like nikke get a pass because they at least pretend to be a video game first and not just a virtual slot machine where morons spend hundreds on animated breasts and ass (that are censored sometimes).
Destiny Child came too late for western release and before gacha become mainstream. Goole play and apple store frick heavy ecchi games and some countries governments
Everybody and their mothers took part in it with their California views shit.
But hey, Shift Up is just as bad for promising a uncensored game and then censoring during release.
So go forth, ask for refunds, and let them both be fricked.
Sony never claimed the game would be uncensored. The false advertising is entirely on Shift Up, not Sony. Maybe Shift Up shouldn't have made promises they can't keep.
With mihoyo, people literally just dont care because at the end of the day, it's about meta. Look at black swan. Literally lost her leotard for booty shorts but still made 90 million fricking dollars because she made DoT teama broken with Kafka.
What the frick is happening with this game and Americans? Seems like the 'gamer' crowd, who originally was excited for this game, are now upset, and it seems like the 'woke' crowd, those that were originally against this game, are now defending it.
>It's the stupid americans need to politicise everything.
Even that is a simplification.
America's two-party system has resulted in a largely uniquely American Us versus Them culture.
In other regions of the world things can be political and still not be quite so binary.
>Pretty soon they'll politicise how you eat
Ask yourself why Bill Gates own so much farmland in the US, and why they're trying to normalize eating bugs.
>and why they're trying to normalize eating bugs.
I don't get why people are focused on this, what's wrong with eating bugs other than your preconceived notions?
they're just land crabs.
>Stellar Blade is advertised as uncensored >Has Fanservice >Comes out uncensored in Physical Disc >Censored on Digital >Censored on patch for Physical Disc by Playstation Of America
Shift Up Tried, but it was Playstation Of America's fault. They need to move the HQ back to Japan immediately to uncensor the game. Of course the Trans are defending it because they ruined it.
The people who were actually excited for the game are playing and enjoying it. The people who were only supporting it because of their moronic agenda are seething because some stuff received edits in a patch. Wokegays never liked the game because t&a is like kyptonite to them unless it's homosexual shit.
>crazy people say heterosexual male gamers are under attack >even crazier people literally prove them right by now attacking heterosexual male gamers >internet discourse is moronic so people get uber obsessed and need to pick a side >now you have the ultra based uncensored game (which is mid but no one cares) and gays/women/male feminists who hate it >the ultra based uncensored game got censored >considering the only thing people cared about was censorship, now they hate this game >since anything that censors what evil heterosexual men like is good, the gay lefy commie who despises big business now supports uber conservative south korea big business
and it's really just that simple
Useful idiots were shilling stellar blade for free because shiftup was le heckin based and anti-woke, and was making a game with a sexy female that wasn't censored. Except now that the game is finally out, people are finding out they censored outfits. So those same useful idiots are having a meltdown as they try to reconcile the supposedly based dev engaging in censorship.
>Except now that the game is finally out, people are finding out they censored outfits.
No, anon. Now that the game is out it is being censored in a patch. Physical disc version is not censored. The entire reason people were buying it, the fact that it was uncensored, is being removed, thereby making the advertising false. Snoy HAS to accept refunds or they'll get smoked in a classaction.
>What the frick is happening with this game
The selling point was a game being sexy and uncensored, some time later they released a patch censoring some things even if they were small, they still did. which in turn, makes it false advertising. >and Americans?
They are in a gray area by either: 1.-Refunding the game and giving the xittergays and journalists a reason to go "SEEEEE!!!??? GAMES LIKE THIS ONE DON'T SELL!! SEXY DESIGNS DON'T SELL!!!" or 2.-Keep buying the game, but the side they don't like will find ways to make it that the censorship is justified becaused the game still sold well. In short, pure mental gymnastics from both sides, either by mocking the things you like and now with a recent one, mocking your appearance.
Unfortunately it is a grey area, but you can say this is Playstation Of America's fault because the HQ is in California. Thanks to them this has caused Stellar Blade controversy. The logical thing would be demand they put the HQ back in Japan from California and uncensor Stellar Blade immediately even if it was small.
>Americans
That's the answer. You have to stop trying to make sense of what those people think. Their brains are rotten. I'm assuming it's something in the water
>people want game are tired of censorship happy game is free and uncensored >devs themselves literally claim it to be uncensored >game releases day 1 with surprise censorship that they didn't tell anyone about >people are upset about this
It's not rocket science. This is one of the cases where the people upset about it are 100% justified.
Yes but some are more justified than others. This is probably the 2nd most egregious cases of censorship I've seen after the Omega Labyrinth releasing completely gutted of all it's gameplay features.
Oh did it? I never followed it much but always remembered how completely insane it was to force the censoring of the w omega in the name because it looked kinda like boobs.
Because Americans are morons that pretend to fight a culture war for "muh freedom/social justice/sexo etc" when it's literally just tribalistic npc autists screeching at each other over shit a "wrong person" liked.
This Stellar Blade bs is the best example of it. You had leftie drones shit talk this game FOR NO OTHER REASON than some "right wing" shills liking it, because "whatever that dude likes is bad."
Cue the Korean dev changing the game because of commiefornian snoy standards and Korean anti-sex politics, now the lefties like it so the right wingers gotta hate it.
don't forget the ever-present, never stopped tactic of hyperpolarization some poor russian kid who learned english got drafted and has to shitpost across Ganker and youtube comments to make americans fight each other over socio-political issues
amerilards should simply be nuked
they just cant stop imposing their shitty politics on the entire world
literal prison country for dumb mouthbreathing fat goyims
I am an American and I don’t understand it much either. Seems a bunch of autists are so buck broken by a fake culture war pushed by the kgb that they are all losing their minds.
The woke left hate hot women (mostly because its filled with ugly women and troony men who loathe beautiful women) so they hated the game at first. Then they realized that the developers or in this case SONY cow towwed to them by owning us CHUDS with the censored outfits.
Now group A of wokies who were never gonna buy the game are praising the game. While group B of chuds are asking for their refund because the game came out censored.
They slightly changed two outfits with a day one patch, so the journo trannies from twitter jumped the vagon screaming censorship, hoping to make the game fail.
>and it seems like the 'woke' crowd, those that were originally against this game, are now defending it.
Outside of a few fricking random people the “woke” were never against this game, most of my leftist friend group was pretty excited for it the whole time.
>the 'woke' crowd, those that were originally against this game, are now defending it.
I suspect it's a combination of the woke crowd and console war homosexuals upset people are raining on their parade and talking about the censorship controversy surrounding their precious exclusive, they sort of tell on themselves when the say 'never ever' when someone says they're gonna wait for PC.
The game was sold as based Korean company being the last bastion of pandering. What ended up happening was a kusoge company that pulled this same bait and switch before does it again, and now these gamers look stupid for falling for it.
Reminder the Senran Kagura devs were required by Sony to censor and was explicitly told not to tell people that they ordered censorship, but they talked anyway
>look up some more info on this >there's an article with playstation banners everywhere on the page >"It’s obviously all a shame, but it’s hard to feel too much sympathy for a series that’s historically traded on the fanservice of questionably aged girls. May we recommend that Takaki and his team focus on actually making a good game, as opposed to attempting to titillate with cheap cleavage shots and diddling minigames?"

Not only it doesn't make sense to actively censor something (as in, not originally creating it 'censored') but it makes even less sense to do so if what you are censoring is readily available virtually everywhere anyways.

Very dumb argument.
Yes, not a complicated concept and by no means a new one. Haven't you ever heard of the cliche of anti gay pastors who are secretly gay? Same concept but this time it's the weirdos on the left instead of the weirdos on the right. I wouldn't expect someone like you to be able to notice simple patterns and extrapolate obvious conclusions, though.
>dorky dad joshing with his son >"wtf pedos!!!"
ffs social media culture is so fricked
I guarantee you that guy is so vanilla that ear biting is just that to him...give a Black person a fricking break
Sony has a history of demanding severe censorship of anime styled and eastern games in general, hel even western games that look too "anime" arent safe, for example they didnt allow blood in doki doki literature club, despite it being uncensored on every single other platform.So this wouldnt be too far off.
it sounds like "false advertising" is referring to some promotional shit showing characters in more revealing outfits than were actually in the game.
But... people surely can't give that much care to a character wearing shorts instead of a skirt, right? Does it make the boss battles less fun? Does it make the story less shit? Does it turn the controls into jank? Wtf are people upset over? This isn't a sex game, so what does it matter?
Maybe just, you know, release a patch that removes the censorship? That would make everyone happy. This stinks of Sony trying to help tank a problematic game while saving face.
This censorship debacle sucks, I wanted ONE week of Sony winning the famitsu sales this year. Intead we are gonna ger Mario Kart #1 until september or something
This situation is literally dystopian to me. I feel like we're going to hit a point where normal people are like >oh maybe a single troony on twitter shouldn't have an opinion with 100x more weight than everyone else, completely transform public discourse and cause me to support something I otherwise wouldn't care about
I mean, that is the case as it is right now. Normal people genuinely hate troony trends for the same reasons you and I do but they can't talk about it either.
Not on Playstation, it would have to come from the HQ itself to allow it. Right now they made sure to censor it Day 1. Best thing you can do is demand they move the HQ to Japan and that they uncensor it. There is potential for PC and MODS uncensoring the game though. But we should be asking for an uncensored version on PC anyways.
You might be onto something... >Sony is known for demanding censorship from games >Stellar Blade, a game that claimed to be uncensored in all countries gets censored with a patch sometime later after release >Sony is now pushing for mass refunds
>Stellar blade dare to step out of their line and mess with Sony's no sexy straight women policy >Pressure them to censor costumes behind the scene >Approve all the refunds easily to reduce the sales so they can make the game fail

Sony's HQ in California is fricking with the game to tank it. Best move would be to say it should be uncensored and move the HQ to Japan.
>developer then releases the game uncensored on other platforms and it's a great success.
Guess Sony prefers to get f in the arsenal by ~~*them*~~ than make money
>company that profits from sells rather let people refund tham remove the censoring
Doesn't sound like the shareholder interests are the priority here. I wonder what the SEC thinks about this.
This move made sense for neither side. PS5 software sales are fricking dead and even sony themself admits that and they hard censor third party since mid ps4 for no apparent reason.
>game is literally a wardrobe malfunction away from being a porn game >"it's about censorship in video games"
There's no way you people are being genuine here.
I don't care about the game but I have a problem with censoring on a fundamental level. That and letting companies just lie and get away scot-free.
I'll also say that nudity is not inherently pornographic so there's no way the game can be a wardrobe malfunction away from being a porn game when the game seems to be some garbage soulslike thing with nothing really pornographic going on.

this guy is clearly controlled opposition and is in this with sony. this is the first time he called for people to not boycott the clearly cnesored game but he encouraged people to get it. just because it's a PS5 exclusive
To gaslight you, a moving goalpost means you have less chance of winning and everything is a team sport when you are a moronic commie larper. They don't understand that censorship will come for them too and many of the idiotic policies they vote for almost always bite them in the ass.
Their goal is to make life shitty so they can usher in the socialist revolution. They know what they are doing is evil and they don't want to admit it because explaining why you are evil doesn't get you friends.
So why didn't Shift Up publish the game through a Korean publisher like Nexon or NCSOFT? They've got enough money to self publish too, Nikke is a giant cash cow. I don't get why picking Sony to publish seems like a good idea.

CEOs of companies are often times way too old and moronic. Many of them think playstation is the way to success as AAA game when the entire life and especially this year has shown that PS5 is holding everyone who releases exclusively on it back massively.

Can't you guys stop being moronic for one second and blame BOTH companies?
>Shift Up, the company that promised a completely uncensored game, MAKING IT'S UNCENSORED NATURE LITERALLY THE MAIN SELLING POINT OF THE GAME, specifically chose the playstation (you know, the console all us gamers know notoriously for censorship, to the point where we have zero evidence or proof of sony censoring the game and STILL think they automatically did it) to release their game exclusively. Yea, I'm thinking it's 100% sony's fault.
If one side is good why would they choose the bad side to completely and solely market their game too? This thread is fricking moronic, all it takes is people blowing a $60 pre-order like morons and then coping by imaging if they b***h enough the product is magically going to change. This is why you don't pre-order
You are just being too reductionist, naive or willingly misleading, that's all. You think a multibillion company wouldn't use scummy tactics to get their way whatever that way may be?
The game was originally developed as coomer slop and the censoring came "as an afterthought". If Sony had a problem with coomer slop why did they fund it to begin with?
I'm willing to bet money there's some contract shenanigans involved that Sony used to technically allow the game to be developed uncensored but that allowed them to take over at some point. Hell even if there was some contract breach the asiatics probably wouldn't even be bothered pursuing legal action because it's draining as frick.
>snoy marketers
How is telling you not to buy a playstation exclusive "snoy marketers"? you guys are fricking moronic. a company lied to you, wether it's shartup or snoy. I don't understand what world you're living in where someone telling you not to buy a playstation game is shilling for sony. literally 2 + 2 = 5
Anon I'm not referring to the people who are rightfully angry and saying you shouldn't buy the game, but the people who go "DON'T WORRY GUYS WE'LL FIX THIS! NO IT'S NOT SONY'S FAULT."
You basically have to make a sacrifice to the cult of LGBT in order to have sexual stuff in your game
BG3 could have nudity and sex because everyone was gay/bi and there was a gay bear sex scene
Cyberpunk could have nudity and sex because there were as many same sex relationships as heterosexual ones and you could make your character a chick with a dick
[...] >Why does Snoy have double standards for homosexual/troony shit though?
Zach...
>i wonder why! hmmm! american politics?! trannnnnies?!?!?! HYPERPOLARIZATION SONY VS PC GUYS STELLLLLLLAR BLADE! LOOK AT USA! >posts pic of london pride parade
if you are a shithead developer who listens to woke corporations to censor your games instead of delivering what was advertised, you deserve to see your shit game fail
Because Snoy also has a very strong precedent for censoring stuff. They killed Senran Kagura and bascially genocided all of their other weeb fanservice games and forced them to move to the Switch.
Lmao it's funny watching Sony destroy a popular game simply out of spite, as their own platform is failing. This is how Sony dies, arrogant c**ts to the end
shift up is the one who chose to censor the game and they are the ones who lied about it, not sony
shift up also did this with their mobile game, or do you think sony was behind that too, moronic Black person
Pretty sure everyone complaining is righteous in their beliefs and wouldn't be caught redhanded playing other games that were also censored.
Keep fighting the good fight my kings
I wouldn't half mind if they came out and said they were getting censored because they were forced to. Or just made it that way from the start and hide behind "artistic vision".
But they straight up lied until the very end then tried to gaslight you.
They KNOW nobody likes censorship, but they still did it.
Reminder that Twitch Korea(ran by Koreans, now shutdown) kept banning Velvet7 because she had big boobs, never responded to any of her emails and eventually she gave up and just streamed on Youtube because its not run by Korea
Koreans are the biggest hypocrites on the planet because you can easily get away with rape there if you have any sort of connections.
Even if you don't you can find rooms on telegram that post real life rape and blackmail and you can physically go out and rape these women for a price.
It's all about saving face. This overreaction to nudity and weed is all about playing pretend to divert from the fact that they are a dystopian hellhole. K Dramas do it too all the time.
To be fair CrimeR is even better and they taught me a new slur I didn't know existed before. I thought Hard R was some porn shit when they removed it.
But, yeah they shouldn't have changed anything because of some whiny game jorno c**ts to begin with.
>Sony tells them to censor it >sees backlash >throws them under the bus and does damage control and try to be the "good guy" >morons fall for it
And that's why they always win.
You should know by now that woke shit isn't about money anymore they just push it for the sake of pushing it. No matter how much the wokeshit games fail to sell they keep making more and they don't stop, because it isn't about money it's about pushing their agendas. They censored Stellar Blade because it doesn't follow their agendas, they accepted Stellar Blade into their platform just to make sure it fails horribly so they can push their "a-actshually nonwoke games don't sell well either" narrative.
The problem with the 'compromise' and 'we still got 99% of what we want' angle is that there is zero guarantee that things don't change further. People are acting like the day 1 patch is the end of things when history has shown these companies can and will make further changes weeks, months, sometimes even years down the line for seemingly no apparent reason.
We never know when some suit or dei consultant will decide something else needs changing and just order a patch to be pushed out.
It was the constant compromises over the last decade that got us to where we are at now. I'm not interested in going back in time 5 years to start the whole slide into puritanism again. I want to get back to a state before all this shit started. If it means sacrificing one promising game, so be it. We need to send a strong message. Think of how many games and franchises got ruined by esg over the last decade, what's one more.
if anything this saves some face for shift up
iirc there is a guideline in the ESRB rating that prevents cleavage it was introduced around 2012? either way game sold 1 million already
Although it seems bizarre they're just trying to cover themselves against getting hit by a false advertising suit. It's not proof that Shift Up ordered the censoring, it's just them following the normal damage control playbook
They can just say sony made them to. It's literally that easy and let sony do the damage control they made themselves because that's literally their job
That's like saying "my boss did it" at work. Even if your boss did do it, nobody is going to say it because your entire livelihood gets cut off the second you do. Sony will never fund them again if they dob them in it, and damage to reputation of the brand is a real thing companies can and do sue for too so you have to be extra careful what you say. And this is generously assuming they don't have some kind of NDA or clause in a contract prohibiting them from talking about Sony's censorship policies
To add to this, if Shift Up is public they have a duty to their shareholders to not tank their company. So they'd get sued by their shareholders too if they started burning bridges with Sony. Public companies are pure cancer.
>think he is a good guy for teaming up with the brazilian guy who got harassed by the kotaku troon >he starts shitposting 24/7 on twitter >get mad that a dumb journo is slandering him >google his shit and there is a fricking 4 year old thread about firefall drama and em-8-er still being in development >watch him start shit with warhammer and then accuse some souls gay like lance as a dei activist
I think he got too powerhungry. Looks like another victim when hbomberguy covers him or he is fricking moronic and attacks moistcritikal next.
>sony is accepting refunds
this seems to be a headline for every single PS5 title. don't they accept refunds by default? how come you never see headlines like "Steam is accepting refunds for Elden Ring for the game being too hard"? Is someone pushing an agenda here?
They offer 1 good will refund and will refund "fraudulent purchases" as long as the content hasn't been downloaded
Source: me who refunded Stranger of Paradise with my good will refund and bought it physical instead and some AssCreed bundle (actual shit games) that I downloaded and said my nephew purchased without my authorization
A bunch of people could go buy it and get a refund right now if they wanted to false flag hard (that's what this is)
>comply with sony censorship demands >sony then refunds sales due to your game being falsely marketed
those koreans got played. should've told Snoy to frick off, or not been Sony's b***hes to begin with. Release on PC and you don't have to deal with sony's bullshit.
Absolutely disappointed with all the youtubers going "its basically what we wanted, minus some tiny censorship, please buy it". No moron, this is how shit dies, you dont give them an inch
Censorship is bad, but it's the fact that they lied about it 4 days before release that makes this particularly egregious. I might pirate the pc release, but there's no way I'm giving these asiatics money.
Everything, from the outrage to the cringe response to it, was manufactured. Idiots are going to help this shitty action game from a gacha developer sell millions because they fall for obvious astroturfing.
This is the first time I actually believe in something like this
Make basic ass videogame
Attract the anti woke crowd
"Betray" them at the last step
Enjoy free publicity with their attempts at boycotting something that nobody cares about
I just want Shift Up to face consequences for their wrong doings
1.Manipulated the rate in their very first gacha Destiny Child's. Got caught and fine by the government.
2. Advertised their next gacha Nikkeas a 17+ game with way lewder designs only to knee cap it 1 month before release for a 13+ rating.
3.Killed Destiny Child as soon as Nikke starts making big bucks from daddy's 10cent advertisement campaign despite claiming otherwise.
And now this
>A company that was already caught censoring their game prior to release before does it again >Ganker is surprised by this
You people will never learn.
Imagine being such an unironic poorgay you think $70 is a significant amount of money in anno domini 2024. Do you brag about how much bread you steal from the store too?
>Seems even they think it was a dick move by shift up
More like they set them up for failure, it's their just deserts for kissing SNOY'S ring. No sympathy for them, i hope another company also steals the thunder from their ass game aswel.
>Sony deliberately went out of their way to tank a game they gave a spot in their advertising, gave funds and published just to piss off the chuds
Do people really think this is the case? can't it just be Sony being moronic as usual and Shift Up cucking because they are the ones signing the checks? Not everything is a conspiracy theory, sometimes people are just plain stupid.
It's 100% on purpose and the point of it it's justify ugly females from now on. Every time someone complains about an ugly b***h on any upcoming game, sony will point at stellar blade and say "look we gave you hot girls and you didn't buy it". So yeah, sending some game to die to push the agenda is nothing for them
You know this was truly bad when even Sony, who usually doesn't accept refunds at all, conceeds it was false advertising and admits refudns to avoid getting into bigger trouble. All the shills that were crying about the censorship being a nothing burger have been exposed by Sony themselves. Fricking KEK
>koreanslop >Sony
They have no one to blame but themselves for thinking that slight cleavage on Tifa's swimsuit was somehow the result of a dramatic policy shift. Sony never changed, and they're still the same homosexuals as back then when they killed senran kagura
They want Shift Up to go down so they can buy them so they don't dare to move their game to another place, they want the full control of everything, this is just a flex toward Shift Up after forcing them to censor the game on day 1
They make tens of millions a month on Nikke. They are not going to go down due to Stellar Blade especially when it has already made over a million day one.
>when it has already made over a million day one. >literally no source for this other than a random guy >the whole weekend passed and no official announcement by Sony or Shift Up
You gays really wanted to believe this lie huh?
Who managed to finesse getting sony entertainment to hq their censorship division in commiefornia and have them correspond ONLY in english.
I could transition three times and stick a car jack in each nostril, and I still couldn't pull off something that subversive.
How is sony accepting refunds and stating they falsely advertised proof of sony being the bad guy? Wouldn't that make sony the good guy?
>t. I have no idea what's going on
If apologizing after the fact made you a good guy we wouldn't need prisons
I don't know what your sentence is referring to unless you're implying sony censored them, which I'm not seeing proof of
It's not about who censored what, it's about the fact that it quite literally used "We will never be censored even a teensie bit" as an advertising angle, then got censored twice.
By who? And for what reason?
Both questions are irrelevant.
>Stellar blade dare to step out of their line and mess with Sony's no sexy straight women policy
>Pressure them to censor costumes behind the scene
>Approve all the refunds easily to reduce the sales so they can make the game fail
You are either a shill or just moronic.
you can't just say 'behind the scenes' like it means fricking anything
why would a company, who wants to release an uncensored game, who is LITERALLY MARKETING their game as being uncensored, make their game a PS5 exclusive? and then you gays cry over sony with zero proof and dick suck the actual company that straight up lied to you?
This is the concise tldr post
Snoy is run by ideology. A bunch of the Horizon people are running the gaming division. They are manipulators and are driven by "ideals". They have no issue to sabotage their own products in order to achieve a le the greater good ie woke cancer. If it were up to them, all of their success games would be Spider-Man 2-tier
It's probably because sony told them to censor right away bit the asiatic devs proceeded to lie about it on twitter anyway.
Makes sense cause the asiatic devs responded now on twitter and said they wanted the outfits to be changed anyway from the start and that the new censored version were their true final form
Spineless lying asiatics.
>sony wants to be the good guys always
>also wants to screw shift up
>gets exclusivity for their sexy game that was announced as a multiplat
>forces them to censor the game, blames everything on shift up and gives refunds to people
yeah
Remember when companies were evil because they wanted to make just more money?
wtf was falsely advertised about it? i haven't been paying attention at all
Literally days before release promising the game would be uncensored when there was a day 0 patch censoring the game.
https://twitter.com/StellarBlade/status/1781976139688534449
was it censored in more ways than the fishnet on that one outfit
Yes, they also tonned down the Gore. Pre release Eve would get soaked in blood fighting, after the patch she doesnt
Several outfits were censored. They also toned down the blood splatter on Eve.
oh that's dumb why couldn't they just leave it alone
Orders from Sony after western journos had a collective meltdown. That's why everything is so slapdash and moronic.
My best guess would be that it was a cinematic bullshot specific to that boss and they couldn't be arsed to make that effect for all the other outfits / bosses.
No, they are just following the laws of most countries, this ua why, you have to regulate market.
Sounds more like Snoy boycotting the Game so their ~~*donators*~~ dont get too mad
Holy kek, hope Shift Up makes the Next game multiplatform on everything BUT PlayStation
Notice the manipulation
>Deal to censor the game
>Actually shift Up IS the villain here we are the good ones, totally not the ones who requested the Game to be censored
>Try to ruin the only coomer game they have reputation
Sony never claimed the game would be uncensored. The false advertising is entirely on Shift Up, not Sony. Maybe Shift Up shouldn't have made promises they can't keep.
https://twitter.com/manfightdragon/status/1784460424278339926?t=H4m0XFqnduhaeliiznH_tQ&s=19
that first post got disproved an hour ago by a promo video, they absolutely murdered some outfits
Lmao that reply is the textbook definition of psychological projection. He's seething so hard that somebody else was more autistic than him but at the same time saying others are upset. It's even worse because the post he replied to is completely neutral. Lance is such an egocentric homosexual
Yea Shift fricked up here.
do you truly believe the stellar blade twitter account would be allowed to tweet that there won't be any censorship without consulting with sony first?
Uh, yes. Have you seen the stupid shit the people in charge of social media for corporate accounts say all the time? Contrary to popular belief, they don't have to get legal to sign off on every single tweet before they make it.
I mean sure, sometimes they say stupid shit, but this is a claim of non-censorship, this isn't something you can just post lightly.
Lol. You have a naive view of how the world actually works.
Maybe Sony shouldn't have agreed to publish a work they are fundamentally politically opposed to
wasnt it shift up's lead dev that said he always wanted to make playstation games?
What does that matter? If they won't allow what he actually wanted to make on the platform then he should've chosen a new platform.
Nintendo/Steam/GOG/EGS/their own fricking storefront would've worked just fine for what was advertised.
>thinking "ackshually we didn't confirm it wasn't going to get censored" is a good legal argument
keke the absolute state of snoyBlack folk
You're not legally obligated to correct a claim you never made.
As a publisher you are, yes.
No, you aren't.
Yes, you are.
Not denying false claims made by the very people that you hired to make a game is part of your responsibilities as a publisher. Next thing you are going to say that Sony didn't have control over the developing process, either.
Wrong. Just wrong.
Yes, you are wrong.
>Sony has to explicitly state that any games that comes is uncensored or it will be censored
the absolute state of clay
>Sony never claimed the game would be uncensored.
You're right.
They claimed they'd censor pretty much anything.
I love how nobody believes you anymore.
>I love how nobody believes you anymore.
What? And the source is straight from Sony's mouth.
It's okay if it's targeted to wokes/
trannies though:
>chatGPT font
cool story bro
It's a screenshot of a nichegamer article

>nichegamer
so chatGPT
How did nichegamer access chatgpt back in 2019?
And the wall street journal also just write in chatgpt then?
Proof is in the pudding.
Explain your use of this analogy in a way that fits your argument
Wasn't there also a thing with Devil May Cry 5 having censorship on Sony Playstation only?
Or am I remembering wrong?
Yes, added light beams.
Except BG3 and LoU2
moronic snoyBlack person
Your Kim guy came out and blabbed about "artistic integrity" or whatever, and said a lot of different shit. Taking pictures like Kojima, and even with Kojima, and runs a successful gacha brand. He has the power to tell Sony anything he wants.
He fricking lied. It's in his face the whole time.
Sony was totally radio silent regarding censorship, which was why some people were suspicious about this no censor sales pitch.
lol stop defending shithead developers
no one is actually stopping these developers from releasing their games exactly as advertised
why didnt baldurs gate didnt get the censor hammer?
Part of the exclusivity deal sadly
Lol sony has outright blocked game releases in the past for being too risque. You're full of shit.
BG3 has full nudity and bear sex on PS5
sony doesnt care about that
this is all on shit up
They don't care about it because western nudity is "mature" and "brave". The women are often uglier too.
Asian and anime adjacent nudity is "childish" and "problematic".
BG3 is also HEAVILY censored in asia unless you mod it.
Because they can't show full frontal nudity. Even in their porn they can't.
SB doesn't show any of that, so that point is moot.
and Omega Labyrinth Z was blocked from being release by Sony. They only care about applying their policies for Eastern games.
>Omega Labyrinth Z was blocked from being release by Sony
it was released though
it was banned in some western countries (not by sony, but by the countries themselves)
Sony is racist against Asia. They will apply shit arbitrarily
BG3 caters to the troony gaze (beastiality, gore) so it's OK. Stellar Blade is made to arouse straight men therefore icky. Simple as
sony didnt censor the game
shit up also did this with their mobile game, or do you think sony censored that too
shit up censored the game and then lied about it, not sony
fricking moron
Hasn't Shift Up pulled this stunt before with one of their previous games?
Yes. But a lot of people honestly thought Sony was tired of losing money on flops and was actually going to try giving people what they want.
sony tried to do that but shit up had other plans
multiple times
do you have more examples? don't fall for falseflagging homosexuals
In
the in-game client has the MORE risque picture, shift up editted it to be more revealing from its original
There's another idiot who posts the red cheerleader as ragebait, when all they did was removed the topmost layer to show her panties underneath, and pretend it's the uncensored version
I think that Bay image was to illustrate that Shift Up chickened out with her idle animation. That skirt looks like it weights 20 kgs
>There was no censorship
>fine, there was, but only a few examples
You're a god damn moron.
How many times will ShitUP have lie to people until everyone finds out the problem MIGHT be the devs
But the problem is shit up themselves. He lies A LOT. Sure Snyo likes to censor shit but shit up being as big as they are right now had no reason to suck snoy dick and bend their asses. Shit up is just as pathetic
>waaah it's sony
>shift up would never censor their own ga-
Preach, brother. They have been getting away with these bait and switch tactics for too long.
Well the bottom one just got sexier
>sony would NEVER censor
>shit up would NEVER censor
That is not the point, Black person. The point is that they are both cancerous companies that censor shit and you shouldn't buy from either of them. Shift up doesn't get a pass for repeatedly censoring their garbage just because sony is also involved, you disingenuous c**t.
>hope Shift Up makes the Next game multiplatform on everything BUT PlayStation
I don't, hope they stay there with snoy where they belong.
Sony is the ones who made them censor
Fricking backstabbers holy shit
You gonna cry?
troony, we don't expect you to finally understand that you won't curb critiques by telling us off since you can't even understand you'll never be a woman despite looking in the mirror and seeing a man.
You frickers are high on copium, you literally don't want to accept that shift up is the reason behind the censorship when they have been doing this for a while, sony had nothing to do with this, you just don't want to accept that your headcanon based company is not different from the rest
Sony is Ganker’s boogeyman, anon.
stfu, brandlover
Because Destiny Child made less money than Nikke
If they go too horny they unironically make less money
>If they go too horny they unironically make less money
How what why explain this logic to me
the same reason why porn games aren't top sellers
heavy censorship by DEI?
porn games arent top sellers because you cannot publish them on ~~*platforms*~~ and advertising is impossible due to "problematic contents"
Porn games are almost always on the top of steam best sellers though:
But also the gameplay sucks.
The first thing almost everyone does is download nude mods for games
If you go too lewd your game becomes johren/niche hentai territory. In polls and such the lewdest bikinis are not the ones to win, because people prefer fashion and style
Also a lot of waifugays dislike vulgar
>But!
Nobody stops them proclaimed coomers to support Taimanin, Eversoul, etc. But reality is that coomers barely Talk about coomer games and prefer outrage culture
This means if I make a gacha with the lewdest bikinis you wont talk about it, but instead you will talk about a a censored less lewd one and you will give me free advertising
Balance point = normies and female fans. A lot of artists drawing Saber or even Nikke girls are females
Shift Up already made a horny gacha before and it flopped until they reached the balance zone
It's the same with Blue Archive. Most of the most popular characters are unironically safe horny
Is this also why ecchi has higher production values on average than hentai?
Yes. Believe it or not nips dislike vulgar. Precure creators also said no panties meant more fans trying to imagine whats under, and precure is really popular with men too
Cute is simply more popular.
This is why I dislike coomers posers, since they refuse to support real coomer games and instead spend all day crying over games clearly not made for a hentai public in mind
>This is why I dislike coomers posers, since they refuse to support real coomer games and instead spend all day crying over games clearly not made for a hentai public in mind
Oh boy, you should visit a sometime....
R.I.P. EscaH_EN
If people just weren't so budy playing their SFW crap. Maybe it could have lived.
Precure is a solidly female franchise anon. The first season was the only one that aimed to garner male fans, all modern precure is designed solely to sell toys to little girls. They hate sexuality because the entire point is they carved out the perfect niche to sell to little girls. In the anime realm precure is THE little girl show. Of course they distance themselves from coomers
>This is why I dislike coomers posers, since they refuse to support real coomer games
Coomers also want sex and nudity in their games you fricking moron, not just ecchi.
Bullshit some h visual novels sold shit load on steam. H games being jap only or blocked by western stores is what hurt it. If H wasn’t blocked on consoles it would sell too
I mean, once you're done fapping are you gonna keep watching porn?
Same thing for games, when you're done fapping to a clothed woman you can ignore the sexiness and keep playing.
If the woman's naked how do you ignore the sexiness?
>we need to appeal to women too
No we don't.
Too bad women means more marketing and more fanarts.
if you had to choose a wife, would you pick the sexy clothed woman or the sexy naked bawd?, people like "characters", these games profit from lonely clingy gays, if she takes her clothes off she is tainted and pornographic, it literally becomes a "just watch porn" situation
It feels to me like if you make a game TOO horny it starts to just feel like porn and sort of dehumanizes the girls and you don't really get attached to them like you do in more safe horny games
There is still a heavy stigma on porn games, and games that borderline on porn. Few people will want to be members of a community for a game that is just smut. Garbage like nikke get a pass because they at least pretend to be a video game first and not just a virtual slot machine where morons spend hundreds on animated breasts and ass (that are censored sometimes).
What about Last Origin, that one is a coomer game through and through and it seems it's doing well in Asia despite not having a global release?
Destiny Child came too late for western release and before gacha become mainstream. Goole play and apple store frick heavy ecchi games and some countries governments
Let's all be honest here. The culprit is Tencent.
Stop lying you moron.
Quintessentially snoy.
yeah...
My current home screen in Nikke. Don't tell the falseflagging morons, you might catch their brains leaking out of their ears
>NOOOOOOOOOO IGNORE THAT THING FOCUS ON THIS THING INSTEAD
It changes nothing
*wipes over it once and it doesn't clear
>second time does
?
Yes, Nikkers will defend their p2w censored game to the death. They're worse than mihomogays when it comes to this shit
With mihoyo, people literally just dont care because at the end of the day, it's about meta. Look at black swan. Literally lost her leotard for booty shorts but still made 90 million fricking dollars because she made DoT teama broken with Kafka.
That skirt makes it so much hotter. Imagine all the aroma trapped under that small flap. Imagine it flying up as she BRAPs.
discord link?
Go be a troony somewhere else
but this is one of those threads, I can't be anywhere else. discord link?
Europoor here
What the frick is happening with this game and Americans? Seems like the 'gamer' crowd, who originally was excited for this game, are now upset, and it seems like the 'woke' crowd, those that were originally against this game, are now defending it.
I am very confused.
It's the stupid americans need to politicise everything. Pretty soon they'll politicise how you eat and boycott all spoons for being woke.
Meds
>It's the stupid americans need to politicise everything.
Even that is a simplification.
America's two-party system has resulted in a largely uniquely American Us versus Them culture.
In other regions of the world things can be political and still not be quite so binary.
It's why troonyism is so popular in America as well. You can only be a troony or a tryhard Andrew Tate tier Black person, nothing in-between.
And better yet, anyone who tries to be sensible is getting called a fence sitter by both sides lol.
>boycott all spoons
no worries, the EU already did boycott plastic spoons
>Pretty soon they'll politicise how you eat
theyre already doing that
expect meat prices to rise very quickly over the next few years
>Pretty soon they'll politicise how you eat
Ask yourself why Bill Gates own so much farmland in the US, and why they're trying to normalize eating bugs.
>and why they're trying to normalize eating bugs.
I don't get why people are focused on this, what's wrong with eating bugs other than your preconceived notions?
they're just land crabs.
Censorship patch flipped the story on its head
They censored some costumes so the people defending it are mad they were lied to and the people who hate it want to dunk on the “chuds”
>Stellar Blade is advertised as uncensored
>Has Fanservice
>Comes out uncensored in Physical Disc
>Censored on Digital
>Censored on patch for Physical Disc by Playstation Of America
Shift Up Tried, but it was Playstation Of America's fault. They need to move the HQ back to Japan immediately to uncensor the game. Of course the Trans are defending it because they ruined it.
The people who were actually excited for the game are playing and enjoying it. The people who were only supporting it because of their moronic agenda are seething because some stuff received edits in a patch. Wokegays never liked the game because t&a is like kyptonite to them unless it's homosexual shit.
Censorship is still Censorship. Blame Playstation Of America for that. Uncensor that ASS. Save the Booty.
>crazy people say heterosexual male gamers are under attack
>even crazier people literally prove them right by now attacking heterosexual male gamers
>internet discourse is moronic so people get uber obsessed and need to pick a side
>now you have the ultra based uncensored game (which is mid but no one cares) and gays/women/male feminists who hate it
>the ultra based uncensored game got censored
>considering the only thing people cared about was censorship, now they hate this game
>since anything that censors what evil heterosexual men like is good, the gay lefy commie who despises big business now supports uber conservative south korea big business
and it's really just that simple
Useful idiots were shilling stellar blade for free because shiftup was le heckin based and anti-woke, and was making a game with a sexy female that wasn't censored. Except now that the game is finally out, people are finding out they censored outfits. So those same useful idiots are having a meltdown as they try to reconcile the supposedly based dev engaging in censorship.
>Except now that the game is finally out, people are finding out they censored outfits.
No, anon. Now that the game is out it is being censored in a patch. Physical disc version is not censored. The entire reason people were buying it, the fact that it was uncensored, is being removed, thereby making the advertising false. Snoy HAS to accept refunds or they'll get smoked in a classaction.
>What the frick is happening with this game and Americans?
They literally straight up lied to their customers
>What the frick is happening with this game
The selling point was a game being sexy and uncensored, some time later they released a patch censoring some things even if they were small, they still did. which in turn, makes it false advertising.
>and Americans?
They are in a gray area by either: 1.-Refunding the game and giving the xittergays and journalists a reason to go "SEEEEE!!!??? GAMES LIKE THIS ONE DON'T SELL!! SEXY DESIGNS DON'T SELL!!!" or 2.-Keep buying the game, but the side they don't like will find ways to make it that the censorship is justified becaused the game still sold well. In short, pure mental gymnastics from both sides, either by mocking the things you like and now with a recent one, mocking your appearance.
Unfortunately it is a grey area, but you can say this is Playstation Of America's fault because the HQ is in California. Thanks to them this has caused Stellar Blade controversy. The logical thing would be demand they put the HQ back in Japan from California and uncensor Stellar Blade immediately even if it was small.
>Americans
That's the answer. You have to stop trying to make sense of what those people think. Their brains are rotten. I'm assuming it's something in the water
>people want game are tired of censorship happy game is free and uncensored
>devs themselves literally claim it to be uncensored
>game releases day 1 with surprise censorship that they didn't tell anyone about
>people are upset about this
It's not rocket science. This is one of the cases where the people upset about it are 100% justified.
It's always justified to reject fake puritan pearl-clutching bullshit defacing art.
Yes but some are more justified than others. This is probably the 2nd most egregious cases of censorship I've seen after the Omega Labyrinth releasing completely gutted of all it's gameplay features.
Oh did it? I never followed it much but always remembered how completely insane it was to force the censoring of the w omega in the name because it looked kinda like boobs.
Because Americans are morons that pretend to fight a culture war for "muh freedom/social justice/sexo etc" when it's literally just tribalistic npc autists screeching at each other over shit a "wrong person" liked.
This Stellar Blade bs is the best example of it. You had leftie drones shit talk this game FOR NO OTHER REASON than some "right wing" shills liking it, because "whatever that dude likes is bad."
Cue the Korean dev changing the game because of commiefornian snoy standards and Korean anti-sex politics, now the lefties like it so the right wingers gotta hate it.
don't forget the ever-present, never stopped tactic of hyperpolarization some poor russian kid who learned english got drafted and has to shitpost across Ganker and youtube comments to make americans fight each other over socio-political issues
amerilards should simply be nuked
they just cant stop imposing their shitty politics on the entire world
literal prison country for dumb mouthbreathing fat goyims
K-pop and its consequences have been a disaster on muttkind
I am an American and I don’t understand it much either. Seems a bunch of autists are so buck broken by a fake culture war pushed by the kgb that they are all losing their minds.
The ultra rich can keep the masses distracted very easily now with a few words.
censorship happened
The woke left hate hot women (mostly because its filled with ugly women and troony men who loathe beautiful women) so they hated the game at first. Then they realized that the developers or in this case SONY cow towwed to them by owning us CHUDS with the censored outfits.
Now group A of wokies who were never gonna buy the game are praising the game. While group B of chuds are asking for their refund because the game came out censored.
They slightly changed two outfits with a day one patch, so the journo trannies from twitter jumped the vagon screaming censorship, hoping to make the game fail.
>and it seems like the 'woke' crowd, those that were originally against this game, are now defending it.
Outside of a few fricking random people the “woke” were never against this game, most of my leftist friend group was pretty excited for it the whole time.
jews are dividing people among artificial lines
there, i solved the mystery
>the 'woke' crowd, those that were originally against this game, are now defending it.
I suspect it's a combination of the woke crowd and console war homosexuals upset people are raining on their parade and talking about the censorship controversy surrounding their precious exclusive, they sort of tell on themselves when the say 'never ever' when someone says they're gonna wait for PC.
The woke people aren't defending it though they are encouraging refunds trying to win their fight
The game was sold as based Korean company being the last bastion of pandering. What ended up happening was a kusoge company that pulled this same bait and switch before does it again, and now these gamers look stupid for falling for it.
EuroRICH here
You're a Black person.
okay bye bye stellar blade
Fricking Playstation Of America censoring this game. Move the HQ back to Japan!
Reminder the Senran Kagura devs were required by Sony to censor and was explicitly told not to tell people that they ordered censorship, but they talked anyway
and are now not allowed in the PS store anymore
Marvelous cucked too they even said they’re losing money because they’re removing ecchi but japs are spineless
That's very evil of them, to force censorship and force the victims to take all the blame
>look up some more info on this
>there's an article with playstation banners everywhere on the page
>"It’s obviously all a shame, but it’s hard to feel too much sympathy for a series that’s historically traded on the fanservice of questionably aged girls. May we recommend that Takaki and his team focus on actually making a good game, as opposed to attempting to titillate with cheap cleavage shots and diddling minigames?"
what a bunch of spiteful homosexuals.
They were awful games anyway, so nothing of value was lost.
Dont you have a guide to write for Kotaku or something? Journogay
Subverted Goyim Blade.
Good riddance.
Everybody and their mothers took part in it with their California views shit.
But hey, Shift Up is just as bad for promising a uncensored game and then censoring during release.
So go forth, ask for refunds, and let them both be fricked.
Fake and gay. troony and coomer seethe is off the charts.
mind sharing discord link? i want to participate too
am I mistaking this for someone else or is this the guy who used to bot his social media accounts?
>needing approval for a refund
Wait sony still didn't put an actual automated system in place after cyberpunk overloaded their hotlines so hard that they had to disable the games purchase?
On xbox and steam it a 2 button click to get your money back.
Fricking japs man.

OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
*WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZEEEEEEEE*
>Meanwhile, these are the ones afraid of some booba
why do you have a 1 TB folder of questionable shit on your computer?
What the frick is this? Why are pro censorship bros acting like this?
>ackshually the people who criticize our deviant panty shot game are the perverts
Reminder leftists defend drag kids
You need to compare yourself against literal sex offenders to make the comparison in your favor lol
Normal people don't compare themselves to sex offenders
Normal people also don't want things censored
Normal people are happy for upskirt games to be censored lol
Normal people dont give a shit about fanservice games, Pedotera.
When did I compare myself with you, pedos? How funny how those always afraid of some cleavage of some adult woman are always exposed as pedos or supporting zoophilia or trans kids
Nobody's afraid of it, they just think (know) you're a creep for playing a porn game
Yes, you are afraid of female bodies
>Porn game
The girl is never naked. Have you ever been on a beach?
Do you watch the girls at the beach through binoculars? Playing this game is essentially that
So why are they always censoring boobs? And I dont mean naked boobs, just the cleavage
>So why are they always censoring boobs?
Because normal, healthy adjusted people don't give a shit since you can see breasts and ass on the internet if you really absolutely 100% need to see breasts and ass.
The fact you need this explained to you speaks volumes to your maturity btw.
See
see
Did your single mom write that?
>why are they censoring boobs?
>because no one gives a shit
>I can't believe I had to explain that fact
you're a 90IQ mutt
If you can already " see breasts and ass on the internet", why did these particular breasts need to get censored?
because it doesn't matter you moron.
If it doesn't matter why did it need to get censored?
Not only it doesn't make sense to actively censor something (as in, not originally creating it 'censored') but it makes even less sense to do so if what you are censoring is readily available virtually everywhere anyways.
Going out of your way to do something is quite literally an indicator that someone cares about it, too.
Your entire post makes absolutely no sense.
>Your entire post makes absolutely no sense.
you not liking something is not the same as "it makes no sense."
you sperging out like this proves it.
Except for the fact that I clearly explained why it doesn't make sense. Because it does not make sense.
>Except for the fact that I clearly explained
No, you didn't. You telling yourself it is clearly explained doesn't mean it is clearly explained.
Except I clearly did. Sounds like the whole thing about 'being upset' and "not liking what you see" or whatever was just a projection from your part.
Yes he did. You are an idiot.
Yes he did, and you're just coping that you got looped around in your own argument.
Oh hey, it's the double-spacer again. Hi!
It's just a disingenuous tactic commie homosexuals use. 'You are just made because you can't fap to it now, porn addict!' They are approaching this from a position they understand, their own. In the last decade the 'best minds' from the other side of gamergate, have only managed to come up with is 'no u' levels of projection and gaslighting.
Considering how many of them keep getting outed as actual, practicing pedophiles instead of just dudes who look at drawn e-girl, nobody should really be surprised at that tactic's ubiquitousness.
Hey its Lo-Ping, fat fetish gay furry from Gamergate. Havent seen that guy in a while
if you dont give a shit, why does the game need to be censored?
the fact that you do that makes it quite clear that you care a massive amount
see
this was answered already.
I would be more worried about trannies dancing naked in front of children instead of some harmless coomer looking at boobs
Also imagine creating organizations to pay money to hide pic related kek
>stop criticizing me, start criticizing trannies instead
lol no
You are about one inch above troony sex offenders
>People who stay in the privacy of the there man caves and mind their business
>Men who dress outside in thongs and ask children to slide money in their butt crack
I think you might be wrong on this one
See
I'm guessing some of you Stellar Blade fans also subscribe to onlyfans or follow the models there on social media
>no u
good one moron
I dont and if i did i wouldnt act as if real prostitution is better then game breasts and ass
Look up phobia and what it entails you dumb muttbrain.
this image is basically alyssa mercante, she was gooning over naked chars in BG3
Drag isn't normal, people who want drag sold to kids aren't normal, and hating you people is normal.
You, on the other hand, are not normal.
People afraid of a female body are always pedos
Literally yes
Usually it's really weird to see someone so afraid of some fanservice. Hell, girls also like fanservice characters, or at most cringe at it.
You don't look like that, troony pervert
if you don't have anything to hide post the content of your hard drive
Not him but I have potentially several million dollars of work on mine, not a fricking chance.
>t. Valve's steam survey
I have personal documents on my harddrive along my WIP music projects and frickton of writing on my game. I don't want to give public access on my stuff, especially as there are some DM things of my friends on my access.
Very dumb argument.
Yes, not a complicated concept and by no means a new one. Haven't you ever heard of the cliche of anti gay pastors who are secretly gay? Same concept but this time it's the weirdos on the left instead of the weirdos on the right. I wouldn't expect someone like you to be able to notice simple patterns and extrapolate obvious conclusions, though.
Trannies and their consequences have been a disaster for humanity.
That is unironically usually what is the case. You should see what happens when someone REALLY loud dedicates to everything that they hate e-girl.
There is, I shit you not, a nearly 100% overlap rate between anti fanservice and actual degeneracy. It's all projection, and the left is full of it.
Yes

They don't care and neither do I
what's the proof sony censored it, is there any? I just keep seeing people crying snoy
Sony has a history of demanding severe censorship of anime styled and eastern games in general, hel even western games that look too "anime" arent safe, for example they didnt allow blood in doki doki literature club, despite it being uncensored on every single other platform.So this wouldnt be too far off.
so nothing then?
Can I get a QRD on this?
it sounds like "false advertising" is referring to some promotional shit showing characters in more revealing outfits than were actually in the game.
But... people surely can't give that much care to a character wearing shorts instead of a skirt, right? Does it make the boss battles less fun? Does it make the story less shit? Does it turn the controls into jank? Wtf are people upset over? This isn't a sex game, so what does it matter?
Send link to the discord
We do this every single time. Sony, and Nintendo for that matter, will do no questions asked refunds a very limited time per account.
Have we got a name for you yet? Bikini-kun? Bikoreni-kun? asiatic-chan?
bikini schizo, newbie
Maybe just, you know, release a patch that removes the censorship? That would make everyone happy. This stinks of Sony trying to help tank a problematic game while saving face.
>That would make everyone happy
Not the people that Sony bent the knee to.
People should really ask themselves why instead of simply rollbacking the patch they rather let people refund it.
*Everybody that cares about the censorship. I should have clarified.
How about instead of accepting refunds, you just UNCENSOR THE FRICKING GAME?
I guess pushing your agenda is worth losing money over.
Good. They lied about there being no censorship, that's absolutely a valid reason to refund the game.
>play game to completion
>refund it because you can
How is this ok to you?
I guess it really is Stellar Over.
The screenshot doesn't say what the refund was for or even when it was requested.
The people on the comments said the same thing.
OH NONONONONO NONONONONO

>PS5 gets 1 (one) game
>actual third party exclusive
>it immediately gets censored
like pottery
>release exclusively on the ESGstation
>surprised when they screw you over
hope those moronic asiatics learn their lesson at least
This situation is literally dystopian to me. I feel like we're going to hit a point where normal people are like
>oh maybe a single troony on twitter shouldn't have an opinion with 100x more weight than everyone else, completely transform public discourse and cause me to support something I otherwise wouldn't care about
"Normal" people are mostly unaware of what's happening around them.
I mean, that is the case as it is right now. Normal people genuinely hate troony trends for the same reasons you and I do but they can't talk about it either.
can't someone just make an uncensor patch for the game
It's a PlayStation game.
i have not bought sony since the ps2
don't they have cfw consoles that can run patches or is that not a thing for them
Not on Playstation, it would have to come from the HQ itself to allow it. Right now they made sure to censor it Day 1. Best thing you can do is demand they move the HQ to Japan and that they uncensor it. There is potential for PC and MODS uncensoring the game though. But we should be asking for an uncensored version on PC anyways.
Wait a second the gooner souls game its a PS5 exclusive? are the devs stupid thinking that Snoy wouldn't censor them??
Yes they believed it would not happen, this is the perfect argument against keeping the Snoy HQ in California and moving it back to Japan.
So Sony fricked them over?
Hopefully future devs won't want anything to do with that shitty company then.
>they're pushing for mass refunds now
This is so fricking interesting. It means they're trying to actively sabotage the game because it sold so well.
You might be onto something...
>Sony is known for demanding censorship from games
>Stellar Blade, a game that claimed to be uncensored in all countries gets censored with a patch sometime later after release
>Sony is now pushing for mass refunds
unironically the most desperate shillposts I've seen in a while
Snoy seething. We know your ilk can't stand women that look like women
Sony's HQ in California is fricking with the game to tank it. Best move would be to say it should be uncensored and move the HQ to Japan.
>developer then releases the game uncensored on other platforms and it's a great success.
Guess Sony prefers to get f in the arsenal by ~~*them*~~ than make money
subverted blade
All I see is a refund, I don't see anything that says why the refund is given. So what's this about false advertising?
Don't you get one "no questions asked" refund per account with Sony?
>company that profits from sells rather let people refund tham remove the censoring
Doesn't sound like the shareholder interests are the priority here. I wonder what the SEC thinks about this.
It's these dumb asiatics fault for limiting themselves to Snoy.
This move made sense for neither side. PS5 software sales are fricking dead and even sony themself admits that and they hard censor third party since mid ps4 for no apparent reason.
IT'S LE GAMERGATE 3 GUISE
I can't get enough of Lily's perky little breasts lads
I think I'm in love
Welp. Maybe yall just realize to never trust snoy and be snoy exclusive after this.
no shit
Any fanservice maker is stupid for going on sony exclusively after Senran Kagurs murder and now this solidified the truth
>snoys inventing conspiracy theories that the game is selling too well
Lmao. Never trust their lies.
It's from some pajeets ai article, anon.
>game is literally a wardrobe malfunction away from being a porn game
>"it's about censorship in video games"
There's no way you people are being genuine here.
Have sex incel
I don't care about the game but I have a problem with censoring on a fundamental level. That and letting companies just lie and get away scot-free.
I'll also say that nudity is not inherently pornographic so there's no way the game can be a wardrobe malfunction away from being a porn game when the game seems to be some garbage soulslike thing with nothing really pornographic going on.
>promised one thing and then given another
>it's ok because porn is bad
It's not ok to be victim of the bait and switch and yes you are a homosexual.
it did not happen same as many other israeli lies
in my country Poland we are well aware that you always lie, stop please.
>In my country Poland
Are you some flavor of Russian?
you are a israelite
I was promised a good game and that's what I got
but anon, it was suppose to be great ;(

israelites fricked you over moron take it out on them instead of on normal people
Why do leftists always say something being censored doesn't matter but never address the fact that what was censored mattered enough to warrant censorship?
so true btw we will NOT boycott anyone for censoring this game
dear leader said to buy the game anyway so we can win this war
>the reason there are so many shill theories in this thread is because this fat homosexual is convincing them to ignore the censorship
it all makes sense now
instead of boycotting the game, you're buying it anyway and coping that the game got censored BECAUSE you bought it
this guy is clearly controlled opposition and is in this with sony. this is the first time he called for people to not boycott the clearly cnesored game but he encouraged people to get it. just because it's a PS5 exclusive
Kern only started doing this hustle recently, back when Sony still released games he was just one of "old blizzard good new blizzard bad" voices.
>this guy is clearly controlled opposition and is in this with sony
I'm sure Sony will gladly put the dude who shat on spiderman 2 on their payroll.
To gaslight you, a moving goalpost means you have less chance of winning and everything is a team sport when you are a moronic commie larper. They don't understand that censorship will come for them too and many of the idiotic policies they vote for almost always bite them in the ass.
Their goal is to make life shitty so they can usher in the socialist revolution. They know what they are doing is evil and they don't want to admit it because explaining why you are evil doesn't get you friends.
So why didn't Shift Up publish the game through a Korean publisher like Nexon or NCSOFT? They've got enough money to self publish too, Nikke is a giant cash cow. I don't get why picking Sony to publish seems like a good idea.
Oops, duplicate post. Thought it didn't go through.
Oops, duplicate post. Thought it didn't go through.
CEOs of companies are often times way too old and moronic. Many of them think playstation is the way to success as AAA game when the entire life and especially this year has shown that PS5 is holding everyone who releases exclusively on it back massively.
So why didn't Shift Up publish the game through a Korean publisher like Nexon or NCSOFT? They've got enough money to self publish too, Nikke is a giant cash cow. I don't get why you would ever pick Sony, the prude company, to publish your coom game.
Can't you guys stop being moronic for one second and blame BOTH companies?
>Shift Up, the company that promised a completely uncensored game, MAKING IT'S UNCENSORED NATURE LITERALLY THE MAIN SELLING POINT OF THE GAME, specifically chose the playstation (you know, the console all us gamers know notoriously for censorship, to the point where we have zero evidence or proof of sony censoring the game and STILL think they automatically did it) to release their game exclusively. Yea, I'm thinking it's 100% sony's fault.
>we are now at the "both sides bad" stage
like clockwork
If one side is good why would they choose the bad side to completely and solely market their game too? This thread is fricking moronic, all it takes is people blowing a $60 pre-order like morons and then coping by imaging if they b***h enough the product is magically going to change. This is why you don't pre-order
You are just being too reductionist, naive or willingly misleading, that's all. You think a multibillion company wouldn't use scummy tactics to get their way whatever that way may be?
The game was originally developed as coomer slop and the censoring came "as an afterthought". If Sony had a problem with coomer slop why did they fund it to begin with?
I'm willing to bet money there's some contract shenanigans involved that Sony used to technically allow the game to be developed uncensored but that allowed them to take over at some point. Hell even if there was some contract breach the asiatics probably wouldn't even be bothered pursuing legal action because it's draining as frick.
Cause shuhei likes the game
Good
Do not worry, keep buying, but mention that you would like it uncensored and the HQ moved back to Japan. Kills two birds with one stone.
>half the thread is literal, honest to God snoy marketers
Jesus Christ.
>But GUISE SHIFT UP CENSORED IT NOT SNOY
I hate it to lol.
grummz and his consequences have been a disaster for Ganker
>snoy marketers
How is telling you not to buy a playstation exclusive "snoy marketers"? you guys are fricking moronic. a company lied to you, wether it's shartup or snoy. I don't understand what world you're living in where someone telling you not to buy a playstation game is shilling for sony. literally 2 + 2 = 5
Anon I'm not referring to the people who are rightfully angry and saying you shouldn't buy the game, but the people who go "DON'T WORRY GUYS WE'LL FIX THIS! NO IT'S NOT SONY'S FAULT."
Why does Snoy have double standards for homosexual/troony shit though? BG3 isn't censored on the PS5.
Because "west good, east bad"
Only Japan is based enough to censor this degenerate troon game.
Nose Tribe give them money
Nose Tribe is also terrified of women
Unironically because Sony are racist.
Cry more.
Ok, so why do you cry everytime men enjoy a game with fanservice?
Videogames aren't your hobby anymore cry harder
Why don't you do everyone a favor and join your brethren? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yL-z0gfo34

This isn't anything new. The b***her and ass effect got praised because of shitty tacked on sex scenes.
You basically have to make a sacrifice to the cult of LGBT in order to have sexual stuff in your game
BG3 could have nudity and sex because everyone was gay/bi and there was a gay bear sex scene
Cyberpunk could have nudity and sex because there were as many same sex relationships as heterosexual ones and you could make your character a chick with a dick
I wonder why
>i wonder why! hmmm! american politics?! trannnnnies?!?!?! HYPERPOLARIZATION SONY VS PC GUYS STELLLLLLLAR BLADE! LOOK AT USA!

my post never mentioned the USA schizo. in fact that's the same shithole that was under jimbo's control before he took over playstation
>Why does Snoy have double standards for homosexual/troony shit though?
Zach...
What's funny is there was an immigrant on a work visa who owned a store that was burned down and so he was deported.
Why did he take the money?
To fool Snoy and make the sequel multiplat
indie dev here, not porting to consoles now. buy a pc.
if you are a shithead developer who listens to woke corporations to censor your games instead of delivering what was advertised, you deserve to see your shit game fail
Can't wait to mod out the black bands and censored costumes on my PC
just woke up chud bros, did we win yet?
>they'd rather give money back than add cameltoe
People blaming Sony, homosexuals at Shift Up did the same thing with Nikke, stop the cope, they falsely advertised it, frick off already shills
Disregarding the coomer stuff is the game actually good?
Why are people pretending that the asiatics who did the exact same bait and switch before wouldn‘t do so again of their own volition?
Because Snoy also has a very strong precedent for censoring stuff. They killed Senran Kagura and bascially genocided all of their other weeb fanservice games and forced them to move to the Switch.
Black folkhills trying to push the blame game, when you should just hate both equally.
>ignore the sheman behind the curtain
Couldn't care less about this whole fiasco. Will pirate this game on PC and will enjoy lewder outfits and pubes.
I'll just wait for the uncensored PC version.
PC version never ever
Every game from every platform eventually gets to PC via emulation, sometimes modded too.
Even if it does come to PC, Sony will probably be the ones publishing it
Don't care, bought it as did many others.
don’t care, refunded my copy as did many others
Lmao it's funny watching Sony destroy a popular game simply out of spite, as their own platform is failing. This is how Sony dies, arrogant c**ts to the end
shift up is the one who chose to censor the game and they are the ones who lied about it, not sony
shift up also did this with their mobile game, or do you think sony was behind that too, moronic Black person
This is how you define a bureaucracy.
An organization staffed exclusively by its own worst enemies.
Game still not on pc so I don't care
Pretty sure everyone complaining is righteous in their beliefs and wouldn't be caught redhanded playing other games that were also censored.
Keep fighting the good fight my kings
you can say Black person here
I wouldn't half mind if they came out and said they were getting censored because they were forced to. Or just made it that way from the start and hide behind "artistic vision".
But they straight up lied until the very end then tried to gaslight you.
They KNOW nobody likes censorship, but they still did it.
the game has failed. it is over
You mean a dick move by Sony.
A look Sony is backstabbing someone like that never happened before.
>meanwhile on literal israelitetube
She's also Korean btw, before you bring up all this dumb shit about Korea hating swimsuits.
Reminder that Twitch Korea(ran by Koreans, now shutdown) kept banning Velvet7 because she had big boobs, never responded to any of her emails and eventually she gave up and just streamed on Youtube because its not run by Korea
Koreans are the biggest hypocrites on the planet because you can easily get away with rape there if you have any sort of connections.
Even if you don't you can find rooms on telegram that post real life rape and blackmail and you can physically go out and rape these women for a price.
It's all about saving face. This overreaction to nudity and weed is all about playing pretend to divert from the fact that they are a dystopian hellhole. K Dramas do it too all the time.
Well, second biggest actually, after China.
This is what you guys deserve for playing on consoles lmao.
They removed the hard R sign, there's no point to the game anymore
To be fair CrimeR is even better and they taught me a new slur I didn't know existed before. I thought Hard R was some porn shit when they removed it.
But, yeah they shouldn't have changed anything because of some whiny game jorno c**ts to begin with.
Frick ‘em. They censored their game, I hope Sony fricks them over so bad they go bankrupt.
>Sony tells them to censor it
>sees backlash
>throws them under the bus and does damage control and try to be the "good guy"
>morons fall for it
And that's why they always win.
I don't think this was shift up's doing. It may be s*ny, wanting ESG money.
>sony is the good guy guise!
No.
This is why I play on Xbox.
Sure, MS is the same cancer as Sony playstation.

Good. I guess they knew it was indefensible and they were scared of this blowing up even more.
Refund this shit. Don't listen to Grummz.
Go write some guides.
Yeah I'll definitely write guides for this censored pos that I respect myself too much to play
Obvs you will not playing it, this game literally kills women by existing and we know every journocuck is a woman respecter.
You should know by now that woke shit isn't about money anymore they just push it for the sake of pushing it. No matter how much the wokeshit games fail to sell they keep making more and they don't stop, because it isn't about money it's about pushing their agendas. They censored Stellar Blade because it doesn't follow their agendas, they accepted Stellar Blade into their platform just to make sure it fails horribly so they can push their "a-actshually nonwoke games don't sell well either" narrative.
The problem with the 'compromise' and 'we still got 99% of what we want' angle is that there is zero guarantee that things don't change further. People are acting like the day 1 patch is the end of things when history has shown these companies can and will make further changes weeks, months, sometimes even years down the line for seemingly no apparent reason.
We never know when some suit or dei consultant will decide something else needs changing and just order a patch to be pushed out.
It was the constant compromises over the last decade that got us to where we are at now. I'm not interested in going back in time 5 years to start the whole slide into puritanism again. I want to get back to a state before all this shit started. If it means sacrificing one promising game, so be it. We need to send a strong message. Think of how many games and franchises got ruined by esg over the last decade, what's one more.

wtf didn't know null was a journalist too
You understand that sony were the ones who mandated the game's censorship, right?
if anything this saves some face for shift up
iirc there is a guideline in the ESRB rating that prevents cleavage it was introduced around 2012? either way game sold 1 million already
Although it seems bizarre they're just trying to cover themselves against getting hit by a false advertising suit. It's not proof that Shift Up ordered the censoring, it's just them following the normal damage control playbook
They can just say sony made them to. It's literally that easy and let sony do the damage control they made themselves because that's literally their job
That's like saying "my boss did it" at work. Even if your boss did do it, nobody is going to say it because your entire livelihood gets cut off the second you do. Sony will never fund them again if they dob them in it, and damage to reputation of the brand is a real thing companies can and do sue for too so you have to be extra careful what you say. And this is generously assuming they don't have some kind of NDA or clause in a contract prohibiting them from talking about Sony's censorship policies
To add to this, if Shift Up is public they have a duty to their shareholders to not tank their company. So they'd get sued by their shareholders too if they started burning bridges with Sony. Public companies are pure cancer.
Op is a bainlet
>SU being dishonest homosexuals
I'm so shocked.

THIS
I refunded Mark, bite me.
It’s so funny is trying to build a cult of personality grift and so many are falling for it.
>think he is a good guy for teaming up with the brazilian guy who got harassed by the kotaku troon
>he starts shitposting 24/7 on twitter
>get mad that a dumb journo is slandering him
>google his shit and there is a fricking 4 year old thread about firefall drama and em-8-er still being in development
>watch him start shit with warhammer and then accuse some souls gay like lance as a dei activist
I think he got too powerhungry. Looks like another victim when hbomberguy covers him or he is fricking moronic and attacks moistcritikal next.
There is still a betting pool around if Mark was the blizzard breast milk thief.
tfw no underboob gf
Is it censored everywhere or just the west?
The digital version has two costume slightly changed.
>sony is accepting refunds
this seems to be a headline for every single PS5 title. don't they accept refunds by default? how come you never see headlines like "Steam is accepting refunds for Elden Ring for the game being too hard"? Is someone pushing an agenda here?
They offer 1 good will refund and will refund "fraudulent purchases" as long as the content hasn't been downloaded
Source: me who refunded Stranger of Paradise with my good will refund and bought it physical instead and some AssCreed bundle (actual shit games) that I downloaded and said my nephew purchased without my authorization
A bunch of people could go buy it and get a refund right now if they wanted to false flag hard (that's what this is)
Don't preorder games that try to sell on sex appeal
Don't preorder games
Ain't this will just make you guys look bad? See coomer gamer doesn't buy shit, we should had homosexual gay sex instead.
>he boughted
>comply with sony censorship demands
>sony then refunds sales due to your game being falsely marketed
those koreans got played. should've told Snoy to frick off, or not been Sony's b***hes to begin with. Release on PC and you don't have to deal with sony's bullshit.
>Playing videogays on PC in 2024
Frick off steamcuck
PC is third behind the Switch and phones in Japan. Sony's dead.
Not an excuse for being a steamcuck homosexual
you can't even think of pc gaming without using steam
Absolutely disappointed with all the youtubers going "its basically what we wanted, minus some tiny censorship, please buy it". No moron, this is how shit dies, you dont give them an inch
based purity tester
Censorship is bad, but it's the fact that they lied about it 4 days before release that makes this particularly egregious. I might pirate the pc release, but there's no way I'm giving these asiatics money.
Angel of Gaming
based. I hope Sony bankrupts those lying asiatic homosexuals.
Woke wins in the end. I thought this would be this generation coomer game like bloodrayne, so dissapointed.
I´m curious about the sales figures for the physical release after the "surprise".
This is all free publicity, nobody cared about this game for real before this, right wingers fricking themselves over again.
Everything, from the outrage to the cringe response to it, was manufactured. Idiots are going to help this shitty action game from a gacha developer sell millions because they fall for obvious astroturfing.
This is the first time I actually believe in something like this
Make basic ass videogame
Attract the anti woke crowd
"Betray" them at the last step
Enjoy free publicity with their attempts at boycotting something that nobody cares about
Also this is intensively pathetic and I have no idea how people seriously discuss this pointless subject for hours.
I just want Shift Up to face consequences for their wrong doings
1.Manipulated the rate in their very first gacha Destiny Child's. Got caught and fine by the government.
2. Advertised their next gacha Nikkeas a 17+ game with way lewder designs only to knee cap it 1 month before release for a 13+ rating.
3.Killed Destiny Child as soon as Nikke starts making big bucks from daddy's 10cent advertisement campaign despite claiming otherwise.
And now this
>A company that was already caught censoring their game prior to release before does it again
>Ganker is surprised by this
You people will never learn.
pretty much this
>heavily advertise game as ass jiggling sim prerelease
>most girls have their asses completely covered up and the rest is censored
is that an ad? sounds sad as frick how his own kid is screaming at him to not be a coomtard who neglects his family.
I don't care who is good and who is evil. To hell them both. Simple as.
>Verification not required.
reject subversive horny, games like this are meant to divide and conquer.
Frick basedny, frick stellar blade and frick the asiatic
Imagine being such an unironic poorgay you think $70 is a significant amount of money in anno domini 2024. Do you brag about how much bread you steal from the store too?
don't care about your manufactured drama over this slop game. cope and seethe
>Seems even they think it was a dick move by shift up
More like they set them up for failure, it's their just deserts for kissing SNOY'S ring. No sympathy for them, i hope another company also steals the thunder from their ass game aswel.
>>More like they set them up for failure
Shift Up did this before, so let's not minimize their role in all this.
>Sony deliberately went out of their way to tank a game they gave a spot in their advertising, gave funds and published just to piss off the chuds
Do people really think this is the case? can't it just be Sony being moronic as usual and Shift Up cucking because they are the ones signing the checks? Not everything is a conspiracy theory, sometimes people are just plain stupid.
How many frickups do you need before you see a deliberate pattern?
It's 100% on purpose and the point of it it's justify ugly females from now on. Every time someone complains about an ugly b***h on any upcoming game, sony will point at stellar blade and say "look we gave you hot girls and you didn't buy it". So yeah, sending some game to die to push the agenda is nothing for them
Maybe not to piss off the choods but they have their headquarters in California, let's not forget that tiny but important fact.
Yes, it's completely them and not in part due to the company who has pulled this stunt before
Good morning sar
>make them censor the game to sabotage their reputation
>offer refunds to sabotage their sales
Well played slimy hands.
>it's okay when BG3 does it
>my asiatic company are le hecking good guys
Never played it. Dont care about fantasy worlds made by liberals and women.
>grummz troon doesn't know what he is yapping about
grim
>brings up bg3 and trannies out of absolutely nowhere
mindbroken
>It was Sony and not the company itself doing it, the same company that pulled this stunt before
did sony make them censor their mobile game too?
how?
>whataboutism without proof
how?
You know this was truly bad when even Sony, who usually doesn't accept refunds at all, conceeds it was false advertising and admits refudns to avoid getting into bigger trouble. All the shills that were crying about the censorship being a nothing burger have been exposed by Sony themselves. Fricking KEK
I feel for you guys, I hate censorship
But
>koreanslop
We all warned you.
>koreanslop
>Sony
They have no one to blame but themselves for thinking that slight cleavage on Tifa's swimsuit was somehow the result of a dramatic policy shift. Sony never changed, and they're still the same homosexuals as back then when they killed senran kagura
They want Shift Up to go down so they can buy them so they don't dare to move their game to another place, they want the full control of everything, this is just a flex toward Shift Up after forcing them to censor the game on day 1
They make tens of millions a month on Nikke. They are not going to go down due to Stellar Blade especially when it has already made over a million day one.
>when it has already made over a million day one.
>literally no source for this other than a random guy
>the whole weekend passed and no official announcement by Sony or Shift Up
You gays really wanted to believe this lie huh?
>the whole weekend passed and no official announcement by Sony or Shift Up
Anon, it's still Sunday.
Which means its been way more than 24h since release anon
You expect their sales and social media team to be working on a Sunday?
You know gaming companies have done announcements and social media posts on weekends plenty of times right?
Yes, but you shouldn't expect them to.
Remember when it took Nintendo 5 days to release their weekend sales numbers for TotK? Guess the game sold like shit, lmao
>over a million day one
According to who? One of your troony discord xisters?
Who managed to finesse getting sony entertainment to hq their censorship division in commiefornia and have them correspond ONLY in english.
I could transition three times and stick a car jack in each nostril, and I still couldn't pull off something that subversive.
>all these frickers protecting the koreans
you haven't suffered enough like gacha gays did.
Anon I play hoyoslop. At a certain point you dont really give a shit anymore.
Did you know steam offers refunds for over 73 000 games
now what does that say about those games?
Hit Sony where it hurts PS+
Hey where is the "LE GAMING IS HEALING" moron at?Spamming this mid game for months saying sex is back on the menu
Oh nice, can I get a refund for the time wasted reading about it
