How the times have come by. 1 Yep, pretty much the worst decision they could have taken up to this point ;-; It's great Steam and even Nintendo are allowing these types of games but anyone could think Sony would follow suit and do the same but nope, now they want to be the ones to police over all type of content. Times have changed indeed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowStar83x Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Not really into these kinds of games, but sucks for those who were. Well, maybe if the Steam version way outsells the PS4 version, they might get the message. True, not likely, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh how the times have changed. Nothing to do with the adult themes and more to do with the recent "misogyny and female exploitation" culture we have going on right now. Sony's western division is headed by notoriously liberal execs, more interested in trying to look "socially conscious" than pleasing the consumer base. They singlehandedly nearly ruined the movie division and the Japanese main office has seriously considered shutting the entire branch down. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyjabria Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 PC for full experience or Nintendo 3DS for the proper original. The only thing PS4 has going for this game is trophies if you care more about them than Steam achievements. Sony will probably arrange milking of the consumer with unnecessary online trophies. "For the payers". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pahiran Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 As an adult who plays video games having to defend why video games are not just for kids all the damn time, Sony you have just broke my heart. Screw censorship for mature games. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will any of them ever buy the product they are attacking? No they wont. I imported Conan Exiles form the UK because they censored it here in the US. Do I ever use the "full nudity" option? No, I do not but I do not support censorship of any kind either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather them shut it down and be done with the people who actually run the western branch. Its dumb, backwards and its not needed. Their movies suck, and now they're trying to police mature video games for mature audiences. Nice society we live in. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrant-Cynical Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Guys even if the PC or Xbox one version of the game outsells the PS4 version 10 times over, it won't send a message to Sony. Senran Kagura is not a well-known game. Its no Destiny or Call of duty and its no Naruto or Tales game. I'm not saying that Senran Kagura is not a popular game, but it's not popular enough for Sony to notice a sale difference. Buying it on another system is not going to make Sony say " oh shit we should stop censoring games" the game is just not big enough for them to notice. That's just the sad reality of it. There is nothing we could really do. Edited October 13, 2018 by jamaicanchampion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fubuki Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Are you fucking kidding me? I've been dieing for a North American release and this is what I get? Censorship? FUCK U Sony. Not buying this. What's the fucking point of censoring this? Who are you pleasing? Fuck your new policy. I'm going to the gym and blowing some steam off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladesoframen Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 For those wanting to know what was exactly cut out, here is a quick run down of the feature. Like the dressing room in previous games, you can go up to a character and interact with them. The game gives you a pair of hands, that you can use to fondle or slap various parts of the girl. As you fondle the girl, you'll fill up a heart gauge. When the heart gauge is full, you can slap the girl's hand and they will reach out to you. When they are reached out, you can grab them, to enter a special scene where you can kiss the girl (and get a trophy). It is effectively a cut down version of what you do during Reflexions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fisty123 Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Marvelous Games have yet to make any posts or comments about the game getting censored yet, As xseed only do north american games most of the time are we to assume that it was US Sony that said no and not EU Sony. I know it's only a small detail but if it's US Sony making these calls then it could start to place on any game that fits into this area. Where if it was EU Sony then we can just blame it on BBC doing reports on sexual games/poor taste games that are bad for kids again.

Cobby Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Why do people care if animated tits and vag are censored? At least we get the game.. If you want tits get a girlfriend or there's pornhub for some real ones.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you seriously Sony? after how many? 3 Senran kagura game now you want censored this because now you want become the new old-Nintendo? ridiculous, this is simply ridiculous, I suppose the same happened with Nekopara because we never know more about it when the date realese was this summer and nintendo users already can play it on swicth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShonenCat Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 No, no, NO! I thought I would never have to worry about censorship in a Senran Kagura game. When is this era of madness going to end!? I guess that's one game I can remove off my wishlist. Still have Estival Versus and Peach Beach Splash to enjoy. Sony's new soy based policy is beyond bogus! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than the entertainment application of the game itself, there is a bigger picture to consider, when Sony commits such primitive measures.

thefourfoldroot Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Meaning I won't be buying it on principle. I really hope this isn't a new direction Sony feel forced to take in response to disgusting, intolerant pressure groups. Whatever the reason I hope it means lots of lost sales and a rethink.

We don't know what this policy say about other stuff like gore and violence. I would be alarmed if I were you. Now, guys, I made up my mind, I'm not going down without put a fight against this shitshow, so that's why I ask @fisty123 to update the OP with the following information that has been posted in the comments of Gematsu: Quote Contact Sony: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/corporate/contactus/ Tweet at Sony:https://twitter.com/PlayStationhttps://twitter.com/PlayStation EUhttps://twitter.com/AskPlayStation Post on Sony's Facebook pages:https://www.facebook.com/pl...https://www.facebook.com/so... (Europe) Link this article, XSEED's tweets, whatever you must. Tell them you want this game's Intimacy Mode in the west, or Nekopara, or Omega Labyrinth Z, or whatever else they've blocked / might potentially block in the future. Do so respectfully. XSEED producer Tom Lipshultz also requests the same Like he said, "Having angry people write hate mail will accomplish nothing, but an eloquent, well-argued, and respectful plea? That's a lot harder to find fault with." My original featured comment still stands. Discuss things like adults, be respectful, don't call each other names or go off the rails and act like butts. Have different opinions, talk them out, understand one another---just be bros among each other and all that jazz. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVader66 Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 While I never liked the Intimacy Mode since I found it cringy and boring at the same time. I am still against the removal of the feature since I am against Censorship overall. I have always been against Censorship even when the Censored Product looks better than the Original Product (search Azur Lane Prinz Eugen Swimsuit). I don't know why I am so stubborn against Censorship of any type. Probably because I find it very insulting that someone else is making a decision for me without my input. If I don't like a feature then I just won't use it like I did with Senran Kagura Intimacy Mode (except when required for trophies) and the Diorama feature. Either way, I am not buying this. 11 minutes ago, SnowxSakura said: Oh well, guess that makes the decision of importing it better Are there versions with English Text like a Hong Kong version?

majob Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I'd say buy the game on Steam if you were still interested and have a capable PC. No need to let XSeed suffer for Sony's stupidity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
