I don't hate Sony, I hate SIE and California and leftists. Aim your hate properly

why don't they just switch to the...switch

>incel is mad
>sony keeps winning
As it should be.

that's the same thing tho. sony japan doesn't exist anymore

It's just gonna keep getting worse, user. Welcome to clownworld. Honk honk.

My anger... ARGH.

>I don't hate Sony
I hate their entire Playstation division. Ergo, SIE. In other words all of Sony in the context of videogames.

>Marvelous then talked about some trouble they ran into while working on a new game, “In the current state of affairs it is becoming increasingly difficult to make,” said a Marvelous representative about games with sexy elements.

only if you insist on being stubborn and keeping your games on a platform that doesn't welcome you anymore

>Marvelous
Literally who?

>sony japan doesn't exist anymore
Know your shit, Sony still has offices in Japan, Sony Music for one, which is tied to Aniplex which in turn has stakes on the waifubait billion maker than is Fate/Grand Order. It's Sony Interactive that moved to California, that office owns the Playstation brand and movie productions.

Fuck Sony, they're literally censoring games and chipping away at a company's bottom line.

They're not censoring anything, its the companies doing it now. In all honesty, the only thing SIE demanded removed was the diaorama mode in Senran Kagura because of the fact you could grope the girls, they didn't care about the rest of the game.

PC has no market in Japan, it's just a visual novel machine for them; the Switch is already getting stuff but the devs want some option for higher specs games that the Switch wouldn't be able to handle, Xbox would be an option if it wasn't so dead so being slaves to Sony is inevitable.

Worldwide is what matters numb nuts, not a single island. Why do these threads always get Switchfags portbegging?

I don't think anime tiddy games are made to appeal to a worldwide audience

Here we go again. Fake outrage over V/N
youtube.com/watch?v=tOue9nW6tNg

jap devs ignored the xbox, now they are getting what they deserve

Sony literally has guidelines for what type of content is and isn't allowed for games on their system. The guideline inspections are supposedly conducted entirely in English, making communication with the Japanese devs this shit is targeting unclear. If they find a game violates these guidelines they won't allow it on their console. That's censorship.

>Fake outrage over V/N
It's neither fake outrage or about VNs. Get lost you fucking faggot.

not even guidelines. it's a game per game basis, purely at the discreation of sony

Worldwide does not mean everyone, it means all customer bases across the world which is smart business especially considering the overseas market tends to buy more than the native market

>just cut into your own earnings
Yeah, I'm sure that will help.

Yup. Now we have devs outright taking precautionary measures to self-censor their games in-fear of Sony throwing a hissyfit (e.g. DMC5).

Again regardless of the quality of a lot of these panty quest games they have a right to exist. It's fucking pathetic.

>They're not censoring anything
Are you just stupid or just quick to forget? Senran Kagura wasn't even first nor the worst case of Sony directly meddling with a game to suit their standards.

This mess started Omega Labyrinth Z, the game was flat out refused by Sony after it had already passed the classification boards PEGI and ESRB, it couldn't be censored so it was fully refused, PQube got fucked as their lost all the money spent in localizing a game that couldn't release at the last second.

>disgusting weeb pedo games censored

Thank goodness.

if japs cared about the world, they would make pc and xbox games

Have sex

Nuke California

Its a per game basis and the only thing they wanted removed from SK was the diaorama mode because of the groping factor. The rest of the game with its risqué outfits and panty shots were a non factor. SIE implemented the policy because of metoo which was about assault, not about female nudity. Thing is companies decided to just go overboard to ensure nothing would happen. Not saying I agree with it but people in these threads are exaggerating the circumstances

reproduce

Because they're a garbage developer who probably can't get their PS2 game to run on Switch and needs the extra horsepower

They can still exist but if Sony doesn't want them then they'll just have to move to Ninpedo.

>Sony uses their authority and monopoly to force political agenda on the people they make money from
If you support Sony, you should be fucking deported

senran kagura 2 is the best looking marvelous game tho

>two bases with the lowest player base

Yeah, you definitely failed economics

>this is probably why UPPERS has been delayed three times
But UPPERS is a garbage game that has barely any sexy elements outside of peeking up a skirt sometimes, it's genuinely the most homo game that Marvelous has ever done and an absolutely abysmal brawler.

Omega Labyrinth was refused because of whiny faggots from The Guardian which put the spotlight on Sony who then said fuck it

Even Aniplex anime games? Can't think of any other than FGO but you can hate it if you like.

>jap devs ignored the xbox
Nice history revision, it's Microsoft that dropped all financial support later into the 360's life and didn't even try with the Bone, the nips supported the 360 hard in its first 2 years to the point it had exclusives that the PS3 would never get later on.

It's still a Playstation 2 quality game.

Sony doesn't have a monopoly retard

>Switch can't even run a PS2 game
Ah, I see.

I forgot that was even getting another release.

3ds is about as strong as a ps2, so...

>360 hard in its first 2 years
wut? 360 didn't do jack shit in japan

FGO is under Sony music whom are under no obligation to do what SIE wants

Well, F/GO isn't under Playstation. And has more autonomy than any other branch of Sony. But yeah I guess.
They're not really representative of Sony though, and are mostly their own thing. Since even before they started making mad cash outside of music.

On gay weeb waifu games they do

then stop making games for them?

there's PC, switch and even xbone that dont have a secondary ratings board to go through as far as i know

UPPERS is a terrific game you fucking pleb

Do you seriously believe that dropping an entire platform would make more money than censoring a game?

yeah marvelous seem to be very hush hush on UPPERS i recently DM'd them on twitter to ask about it and they confirmed that it's still being worked on

the only reason why their games sell that better is because the PS4 is an absolute wasteland of games in Japan

An example of a 'Marvelous' game. More pedo crap for no lifes, who cares. No real games are censored. Only pedo games.

Why did sony even move to america anyway? They couldn't have bombed that hard in japan. They're video game wing is effectively the only profitable part of them.

Literally why doesn't Marvelous just fuck off from Sony to literally any other platform?

>Aim your hate properly
As if the rest of Sony is any better. Their movie division is hot shit and everything else is subpar.

It doesn't fucking matter what the reason is. You said they should drop the platform.

Why shouldn't they faggot?

I hate Nintendo, I don't know why people are now pretending that Nintendo isn't the worst for it. Nintendo will straight up censor the chance of 90% of all games even appearing on their systems, they just say no to the games all together at least sony compromises and just removes the hardcore pedo shit, tht's what you all cry about

Gee, I don't know. Maybe it's because they are a fucking business and their goal is to make money?

nintendo can do whatever they want to their own games

sony is censoring other peoples games

Just nit picking since the other guy said
>all of Sony in the context of videogames
and Aniplex is definitely still part of Sony as a whole and they are part of a committee for anime video games.

this is hurting companies who are playstation exclusive the most tho. guess they kind of deserve it

So you're saying that a company that exclusively makes 'games' about underage Japanese girls isn't allowed to make their games sexual? Good you stupid pedo fags, I hope you are all seething and crying.

Attached: shit.png (2236x380, 612K)

The Japanese devs suffers Stockholm syndrome, tahst why there are games still released on via instead of the switch

Sony music is arguably bigger than SIE. Most of Sony's media profits come from their music division and they have just about all of top artists signed right now, not to mention the rights to loads of popular music

That's why they're lowing their sales expectations right

Video games are bombing in Japan, console games at least, they don't sell as much as they used to in the 6th gen and early 7th gen, mobile gaming has completely taken over in Japan and the Switch found a solid ground because it can passed as a portable which nips love to death, as a matter of fact the Switch is about to surpass the PS4's lifetime sales in Japan despite being released much later, that's how much console gaming is screwed in Japan, that's Sony's reasoning for moving the Playstation office to the west in California, westerners are the ones making all the billions in home consoles.

>UPPERS is a terrific game
>Clunky as fuck combat
>Basically zero content
>Shitty bishounen sausagefest
>Miniscule stages
>Garbage enemies that don't even pretend to put up a fight
It looks great and has the best version of Daidouji ever conceived, that's about it, game's trash and bombed for many reasons, no need to pretend otherwise.
It's only entertaining once you realize that it's pretty much /fit/ in videogame form, and even there it gets boring fast.

only sony games dont sell in japan lmao

Sony's biggest money maker is insurance and Sony Music makes shit tons of money. They moved all if SIE to the US to consolidate, which saves money and business trips. Problem is that SIE is in California and staffed by Californians

The devs can just not put their games out on Sonys platforms then, its the devs who are obviously agreeing then crying later like children who can't take responsibility. Also I was pointing out that Nintendo refuses to have 90% of 3rd party on their system because they don't fit with their family safe censorship image

What are you implying here? Do you seriously believe they wouldn't lower their sales expectations if they dropped sony platforms? Since their goal is to make money they probably projected sales for both cases, dropping the entire platform and censoring the game. Looking at the outcome and how they are censoring games it would seem that their projections show that dropping an entire platform would make less money than just censoring a game. Are you truly too fucking retarded to understand this or are you sperging out on your emotions and think that if they lose money anyway they aswell might lose more?

Sony's movie division has been putting out hits lately and Sony music is literally one of the largest music producers in the world

>Also I was pointing out that Nintendo refuses to have 90% of 3rd party on their system because they don't fit with their family safe censorship image

do you have a single fact to back that up

Not him, but yes I unironically believe that. Because said platform would weaken the product, not only on said platform, but all others as well. By cutting said platform, you'd have a stronger product on all remaining platforms, and fans don't all of a sudden disappear just because a platform does.

They've been giving the switch shit support since day 1 with late ports and spinoffs. Now we could only hope for RF4SP and RF5 to sell well to even have a chance for them to develop games for it. And no DeamonXMachina will have a hard time to get 1m Sales considering how niche it is.

Nintendos lack of 3rd party games for the past decade? The fact that every time a good game comes out Nintendo never gets a port? Are you really denying it?

UPPERS is for fans of delinquency my dude if you don't get why it's fun you clearly don't like delinquents

Why would you keep it on that system if you can't even make the games you're known for, retard? It has the largest target userbase, but what the fuck are you targeting them with? A neutered version of the games they liked before? Use your fucking brain.

sony has always been pro weeb, why wouldn't you put your anime titty game on playstation?

The only thing SIE wanted removed was the groping retard and that's only because the fags in California were scared of #metoo

>Also I was pointing out that Nintendo refuses to have 90% of 3rd party on their system because they don't fit with their family safe censorship image
You what?
user, Senran as a series STARTED on the 3DS. Nintendo themselves don't give a flying fuck what third parties do as long as they fall in line with what CERO does.

Just buy the original moon one then.

Why are you lying nigger?

Not him but what's the relevance there? Also are you trying to say that exclusives and 3DS games weren't third party support?

Because they're not proweeb anymore. Simple as that.

can't. sony is now censoring japanese version of games

SIE was moved entirely to California to cut costs, not because of the gaming market in Japan. People whom have never taken a business class really shouldn't speak on these things

The Japanese release is facing the exact same problems. It's being censored too.

Because you're on a contract to make X amount of games for the platform and can't get out of it until you finish all said games.

>UPPERS is for fans of delinquency my dude
What delinquency?
I'd play a Kenka Banchou game where I can actually be a delinquent and act like one, not a glorified bishounen fight club for fujos with some VN on the side and muh posing.
Uppers fails at being a delinquent game even harder than it fails at being a competent brawler.

They’re censored even in Japan, fag. There are visual novels that are only in Japanese that have to be sent over to Sony’s English-only censor board before they can get released exclusively in Japan.

The situation is so fucked.

Don't most of those games have a PC release though? Especially if it's a VN.

>wut? 360 didn't do jack shit in japan

first 2-3 years were great, then it all went to shit kinda like it now goes to shit with PS4

I understand they're stuck there, but I'm arguing against the point that it's a smart move to stay there once that contract runs out.

Japanese games meant to be released only in Japan are getting censored, developers in Japan must sent their games to SIE to be aproved, California is deciding what the japanese should play, this debacle is not limited to localized games.

like i said it's clearly lost on you
the only kenka bancho game playable in the west without the purchase of a region free system/japanese system is the psp one so it's not like fans of delinquency have much choice when it comes to games

Losing games isn't "winning"

The Playstations soul died with the vita.

It's a shame that Yea Forums archive doesn't go that far, but it's funny how many people got a ps4 for japanese games only for this to happen

Playstation is now worse than xbox

Wait what the fuck? How the fuck did that happen? How are the fans in Japan even taking this bullshit?

>kinda like it now goes to shit with PS4
which is funny because right now Sony tries as hard as they can to become exactly how Microsoft was 6-8 years ago. and we all know how well that went for Microsoft

>Playstation is now worse than xbox
not yet, but on a right track

You are literally too stupid to live.

>like i said it's clearly lost on you
You really mean posing for a bunch of dumb thots is what being a Banchou is about?
Of course, I don't expect an EOP to actually make any solid argument either, maybe you should play some actual banchou games and not a shitty two hours long arena brawler with a skirt peeking minigame.

Its higher up there in terms of PS2-quality games. People seem to forget the amount of shovelware that exists.

It's likely that Sony funded SK7's development to some extent and Marvelous/Boob Producer are trying to make it seem like its everyone else at fault because of contractual obligations.
That its the more realistic option which is that everyone at Marvelous outside of the Rune Factory devs and Grasshopper Manufacturer are genuinely retarded.

This may come as a shock but the Japanese have been censoring games long before SIE came along. In fact PS4 games that were uncensored here have been censored in Japan

PS4 came out 6 years ago and this just started happening a few months ago
i think they got their money's worth by now

Maybe but then we know how some Japanese stuborn Japanese people are. Maybe we'll see something with the change of their President I'm not expecting much at all.

Which is its still getting Japanese games. Your train of logic seems to have some flaws here

>but it's funny how many people got a ps4 for japanese games only for this to happen

English Only Peasant

Yes, that's why we know it's a problem endemic to Sony consoles. It's one thing for multiplats, but then there are plenty of smaller companies that exclusively released stuff on Playstation that are now getting censored that you will have no alternative for. Like Marvelous games in the OP.

What about Story of Seasons being considered for "traditional release for consoles" then?

Were these ever actually translated or are they still in nip on western eShops?

Japanese game releases censors extreme violence, especially localized western games and that is at large for all plataforms under CERO's reach, it had nothing to do with Sony, this shit with SIE's cruzade on weeb shit is entirely on them.

i don't know where you got that idea i'm pretty fluent in some sections of german and french

i was referring to the fact you would need to buy a japanese console or a region free version just to play them

>Also I was pointing out that Nintendo refuses to have 90% of 3rd party on their system because they don't fit with their family safe censorship image
They abandoned that image when CERO, PEGI and ESRB happened.

They should jump ship asap then.

Tell me why the nips are still buying the PS4 version even though there's an uncensored0 switch version? Just a honest to God question cause I don't see the point of it all.

If any censoring were to happen it'll be done as part of a broad nationalistic awakening, which sjws will complain about anyways

You seem to be making that comparison though. Fact is the Japanese are no strangers to censorship and while SIE aren't doing us any favors, don't pretend this is a recent trend when it's been going on far longer

>nintendo.com/games/detail/night-trap-25th-anniversary-edition-switch/

because the switch is a piece of shit

They most certainly did not, mortal kombat was a thing and they've censored games recently too

Yes, that's what everyone is saying. Some publishers like Idea Factory are already doing just that, but it remains to be seen if they'll still be successful. Mary Skelter 2 is now a Switch exclusive in the west for no other reason than to get the hell away from Sony. I'm hoping it does well.

In some cases the games are uncensored everywhere but on Playstation.

In some cases Sony have left the developers contractually obliged to enforce parity between the Playstation version and other versions, which under Sony's guidelines means dragging every other version down with it.

In some cases the games are Playstation exclusive to begin with.

This gen has been cancer on all fronts anyway, somebody please just end videogames altogether.

Oh look, that game is on the PS4 as well

I know I did. Now I feel jilted. Playstation has shit for exclusives now, and they're actively hampering 3rd parties. There's no reason to buy Playstation anymore.

What you are talking about, it's you who tried to compare the two, one is a rating board setting guidelines for all plataforms, the other is a company that placing a second barrier despite the fact rating boards were created so companies didn't have to make their own rating system; Nintendo of all things seems to understand this by stating they are fine with any game that has already been approved by the rating boards.

I'm not sure it will see great considering it's digital only.

I wasn't arguing about that. Night Trap's controversy back then was idiotic anyway, it got blown up for no reason.

Even for a fucking VN game?

>Mary Skelter 2 is now a Switch exclusive in the west
It was funny seeing the meltdown threads that spawned from that. Especially on Reddit.

Moero Chronicle H has been in the top downloads list since launch.

We need to give California the Nip treatment, "TWO!?" scoops of nukes, on the house.

Why do all these kinds of people end up in Japan? Where are the normal expats?

>mortal kombat was a thing
Mortal Kombat was what helped instanting the ESRB to begin with, and recently Nintendo hasn't censored anything, except that old porn Saturn game that had bare breasts in it, that shit wouldn't fly anyway as it is a game before CERO even existed and the Saturn gave no fucks about releasing PC-98 ports of porn games.

please don't my best friend lives there

Attached: 1535160483530.jpg (505x472, 50K)

That's what I mean, because of the ESRB parents and the government can't blame them so now they can let third parties do what they want. It's why every Nintendo Mortal Kombat after 1 still had blood and fatalities.

>Wanting to live in Japan
>Normal

If they're gonna be this stubborn then they deserve death.

It just needs to do enough to justify its existence without Playstation and their draconian censorship. It was never going to set the world on fire, but I want to believe that there is enough of an audience that's console-agnostic that companies can do the right thing and release their games uncensored on other platforms and be rewarded for that.

Plenty of Jobs need you to relocate there for a year or two. Mine had asked us before too. I think most Non natives living there are only there temporarily.

>mortal kombat was a thing
You mean the game that came out two years before the ESRB? You might be a bit young to understand this but the world of video games back in the late 80s early 90s was a fucking mess when it came to this shit because no real regulations existed unlike say, movies so anyone could buy anything but there was no one to blame when a kid got scared except the platform holder because parents were retarded.

Well that's good. I hope both games sell well. I'd buy both games but lol fuck upgrading my switch. Still waiting for a switch mini cause the regular one is hard to use in a cramp vehiclle unlike the 3ds.

All this samefagging

Yeah right? I can't believe you're samefagging to a reply complaining about samefagging. Fucking samefags samefagging.

When you do the business relocation thing you get the westerner experience. It's entirely different living there by choice.

Thats been the reason I bought every playstation since the first one but if sony doesn't care about japan anymore I will gladly ditch them for whoever will.

Good. Er, not his health, but the stepping down. A new regime change did Capcom a world of good.

It's amazing looking at the contracts that these publishers were willing to sign, and the fact that Sony can force you to spend thousands at anytime they want or risk losing it all.

No one was expecting Sony to pull something like this. Alot of publishers are probably still under earlier obligations, but there's no doubt that everyone will be negotiating new terms in any future contact with Sony

Fair point but given the posts we see from those people they're probably all business relocated employees having a massive culture shock.

That's pretty much true of anyone who's been here prior to say, 2013.

But their heading into AAA territory and they're just releasing all their back catalog of ports. I want more AA games.

>Yea Forums hates and doesn't care about Playstation and the PS4
>somehow cant stop screaming about decisions made for Playstation and the PS4
Why do you care about what Sony does with the PS4 and its games? Honest question.

Nintendo learned that censoring third-party games is not the way to go and should let that be up to the developers, not them. It's a terrible business choice that would piss off a lot of consumers. There's an audience for everything and devs that judge others on what they like and take it away out of spite or fear is unprofessional. What your consumers like is irrelevant, what matters is giving them what they want and making profit. Simple as that. Sony's just scared of big titties now. There's no way around it. Nintendo has just full on embraced the fact that sex sells. And look, nothing bad has happened to them.

that's Californians

For now. The wheel keeps spinning and when Nintendo is ontop crushing Sony they'll reverse again.

>It's amazing looking at the contracts that these publishers were willing to sign
You have to remember that some of these contracts were made prior to some of Sony's more questionable choices like censorship so everyone just gets fucked by say a parity contract, not just ps4 users, because it was never a thought that crossed their minds.

The heart of this industry has skipped a beat. Nothing more. They plunged the once weeb company of Sony into ruin in Japan. They slew the once untoppable company of Bioware, whose fans never knew a bad game before Mass Effect 3 and has since then only released trash who brought the company to ruin. When hope arrived at the great company of Obsidian, They saw to it that the company did not last alone. They piled their indie games into the spotlight in heaps that rose above all gaming media headlines.... Their actions are droplets of water falling into an endless sea. They are significant unto themselves for a moment, and then they are gone.

Tell that to the Wii and DS era. Arguably even now with the Switch.

The only reason why Nintendo had any censorship mid U/3DS was because of Treehouse gaining more and more power. Since they've been whipped they haven't done anything.

Honestly hate snoyfags that's shitting on anime/japanese games on this board.

>Sony is ruined in Japan

>literally have a game there that's the best selling right and breaking sales records

The delusion is real

you say that like it's justified you retarded faggot.

Which game is that?

I assume you haven't been paying attention to the Japanese game industry in the past seven years.

I imagine a good portion of Yea Forums owns a PS4 though considering it's the biggest current gen console, I do, doesn't mean I won't criticise the fuck out of them if they do something I don't like, the company loyalists on here baffle me.

probably because the PS4 literally has no games in Japan.

This one on it's third week.
>[PS4] Days Gone (SIE, 04/26/19) – 33,876 (148,195)

Days Gone. For some reason.

>the company loyalists on here baffle me.
Yeah, kind of makes me wish for the Wii60 era. People cared about the game back then and we didn't have any brand warriors.

>Gee, I don't fucking know.
Well that's what I'm asking. Why?

>Treehouse
didn't Treehouse aso have a pedophile woman in charge or shit like that?

I'll go where ever they sell portables. And currently it's only the switch that's cheap and affordable.

They had someone who would have defended the very games they're crying about but some autist wanted to get anyone at treehouse fired and found out she was doing prostitution on the side.

Nothing of value was lost

I don't think she was part of Treehouse. She was just a Nintendo employee.

thanks, I can't stay update to all the drama.

Yeah that was the most retarded shit.

>Senran
user, it was going to be a new game. They make more than Senran you know.

>And currently it's only the switch that's cheap and affordable.
Which is another hilarious thing, remember when people were calling the Switch expensive for a handheld when the Vita at launch was more because of the memory card tax?

All their games play like shit and have DLC up the ass. They can go fuck themselves.

>because it was never a thought that crossed their minds

It's an abuse of trust at this point. When you have companies lowering their sales forecast over said decision, they won't forget that. If Nintendo can ever stop with the gimmicks and offer a competively-specced console, they will dominate jap development

This. California is fucking terrible, Sony should never have moved their new HQ there.

Attached: XRrGl5A.jpg (500x502, 33K)

I'm comparing it to gdp win though. It's still expensive though and some games are sold at 60 compared to the old standard of 40 for a handheld.

I forget what she said that pissed people off. She wasn't even localizing, she just handled PR stuff, which was terrible but far removed from censoring games.

Thing is specs never mattered.

How many companies has this affected?

These titty games done need a competitively spec'd console. Switch is made for these things, but they playing

Marvelous, PQube. By extension the Senran Kagura guy.

I'm sorry for your stroke

Why the fuck would they give up portability to become a third underpowered PC? They literally are the only console that offers something a PC can't do.

>Sony censoring games with pedoshit

BASED. Now you will actually have to go outside and HAVE SEX with REAL FEMALES.

The Switch specs are not the real problem, the Switch carts are the real problem because it costs too much to make carts compared to making discs, and the price gets higher the bigger the cart size which is why so many games release digital only on switch, or have only part of the game on cart and the rest is available as a day one patch

Pqube
Marvelous
Atlus if their Full Body interview is anything to go by
Capcom self censored with DMCV
The Nekopara devs

You guys forgot the JP devs that has to pay another body to rate their games and get the games translated somehow. Which is basically All JP devs.

I made one typo. kys, user.

Don't forget these two too
Idea Factory (the chinese version of Mary Skelter 2 was hit pretty bad, and many games releasing in the coming months are confirmed to be censored on PS4 like the Date a Live VN or the Neptunia 2D game)
Spike Chunsoft but they just bend over anyway because they're Sony fans

Maybe they will make a game actually worth playing finally.

We can gladly put the "get woke go broke" slogan to rest. Sony is making more money than ever now amd our protest meant nothing.

>the chinese version of Mary Skelter 2
I'm counting that under China changes than Sony changes because a lot of games get censored there because it's China.

>LET "US" STOP WORRYING ABOUT THIS AND JUST BUY THEIR PRODUCT
Hello, Sony employee.

No it isn’t
Yeah the budget slashes hurt deep but the stress of not being censored is certainly worth it.
Plus 90% of Vitafags are now switchfags considering they don’t have a platform anymore

>EH ITS A PEDO GAME BECAUSE IT HAS CUTE GURLS
Strangely enough most of the people screeching about pedo this pedo that are actually tucking real kids.

Marvelous is literally lowering the sales outlook for a game because they know the fans are done.

Yeah but that's the west, China is a different problem altogether. Even if Sony wasn't censoring games it would have been censored there.

Nintendo censors their own games
They just leave it to Cero/Pegi/ESRB which they honestly they hate much more than niche devs

I'm confused with the position. Director is lower than President right? What about Shuichi Motoda?

>Nintendo censors their own games
They've stopped doing that, largely. They make sure the Japanese and Western games are the same. The localization teams now have to run their changes by the original devs and get them approved before they're implemented. The first game the did this with was XC2.

>Nintendo censors their own games
They don't even do that anymore.

To be fair there are no lewd girls in that.

>The first game the did this with was XC2.
then why did we have that botched translation for the Gladius' names?

I bet Sony said the same thing to the publishers that they publish games on Sony's console haha

Just like how Yea Forums isn't everyone, 2ch isn't everyone in Japan either

>Gladius
Yeah because you're in any place to talk about botched translations

And they wonder why Japs hate Americans
They’re pushing to get maid cafes banned because “muh sexism”

Nigga that’s people’s job
They tried to get Twin peaks and Hooters banned and all that happened is the female employees told them to fuck off retards

>the company says that it lowered the game’s sales forecast following the change.

i didnt buy Burst Renewal because of the censor and I dont even use that particular óption and neither did my friend, kinda sad really.

except to get the trophy cause there is always one for that.

They do and they pre censor too.

why blame sony? It's on the devs for not releasing the product elsewhere. Sony made a shit decision but you can easily show them how you feel by not buying their platforms anymore.
devs though, if they don't release the game anywhere but the shit platform, it's their fault when it fails.
Fucking retards. Not like marvelous made good games anyway. SK sucks.

I’ll buy Mary Skelter 2
Don’t really care for it but fuck censorship

As a well adjusted heterosexual white male I don't give a single fuck. Those are problems of incels and incels alone.
Don't expect sympathy from me, you chose your own path.

Which is why they haven't censored anything as of late, right?

Yeah let's blame the company that signed a contract to make X amount of games for sony not making games for other platforms.

The only people that have "pre" censored this gen are Capcom and Atlus, both because of Sony.

He’s shitposting
Compared to vita switch is powerful as fuck consider it only uses 7 watt hours of power
The PS4 uses 144 watt hours

this. How's the first one?

Sony did nothing, its SIE at fault and developers are going to drop the largest user base over some pixels especially when multiplats tend to sell better on it

it's not that simple you retard
games take years to develop
sony's censorship bullshit only started a few months ago and they were lying about it to the devs
they're not going to make any more games for PS4 starting now, but changing the games that have been in development for it is not that easy

>why blame sony?
Because Sony made them sign exclusivity contracts and then changed the rules?

It depends highly on the board itself. That said, 2ch is a lot more active than 2chan.

>Got it during the sale
It was on sale? And I missed it? Fuck.

Are you fucking retarded? This place has been full of Nintendo shills full stop for years now. We're flooded with smash threads and Nintendo fags port begging for Sony games

Yes, but he was just a producer and in theory, this game that had to be modified went into production before Sony went retarded. That is also the reason they can simply move it to Switch.

>Sony did nothing, its SIE at fault
Which is the Sony division in charge of Playstation.

People who hate on California are stupid, it's not like Sony in Japan did not have to approve the move. They knew exactly what they were doing.
There are way too many people on Yea Forums who love to sperg out emotionally but don't know anything about Japan. Here is a good documentary for starters, it explains a lot of things, why japenese IPs get westernized, why japanese games are doing better now than last gen, etc.

Based Sony, Marvelous games are utter trash if this studio collapses it would be a great benefit to videogames.

It wasn't anything to worry about when it was just Censoring shit like little girls in skimpy clothing.
But now the censorship is outright keeping games from being made for dumb reasons.

I only see old posts too. How do I actually get to the 2ch Yea Forums? There are so many variations. I see 2ch, 2channel, 5ch, then there's a ton of like something.2ch else.2ch.

Sony censored at least 19 games that were already cleared by rating boards worldwide after banning Omega Labyrinth Z last year. Last month, Sony officially confirmed that the reason for this was a puritanical policy that had been put into place thanks in part to America's #MeToo movement, effectively drawing the proverbial line in the sand for fans and developers of niche Japanese games.

Just like how we meme here there’s some people who genuinely roll over for anything and I mean anything.
Some people live their entire lives as push overs

That in no way detracts from what I stated which is the truth. Most censoring done now is in house, in Burst Renewal's case, all SIE wanted was the diorama mode while everything else was untouched. Panty shots and all

I thought they would slowly move on to the Switch and the PC, weird. I hate censorship and love anime games as much as the next guy, but if they're still with Sony after their obligation to be is over It's their fault at that point.

They do. Many smaller publishers and developers are starting to see the benefits of PC gaming.
Cheaper to produce, no physical disk and packaging costs, etc...

I literally had sex not all of 3 days ago and I hate censorship
Slippery slope is real and I’d rather attempt to stop it now before it gains traction

It's a slippery slope user, not to mention that PS4 owners potentially miss out on games they initially would have gotten. There's no reason for the policy when ESRB exists. I legit hate Nintendo and Microsoft and Sony did themselves no favor with this policy because not every PS4 owner is like me and hates the competition too much to leave

Sorry bro 12$ sale too

It just proves they don't know anything about the party the claim to be a part of. Democrats are champions of freedom of expression. At least, they were, until these loonies took over the social wing of the democratic party. At least its politicians are still mostly sane.

Videogames take a lot of time to make, and deals could have been made 1 or 2 years ago before Sony went full censorship. It will be interesting to see what announcements will come from developers impacted like IF or Marvelous from 2020 and onward

Thanks for the hire Sony!

Devil may cry 5's censorship was literally all Capcom, Sony had no hand in it and that's why they patched it when they found out SIE didn't care. Zero Zenki's censorship was in house as well along with Dead or Alive extreme

The intimacy mode had groping, now what do you think the whole #metoo thing was about? Aside from that they left every other mature element alone

It's not that simple. Sony will back games financially. For a very popular example of this - No Man's Sky. Back when it was released and everyone was shitting themselves, it became common knowledge that Sony agreed to financially back the game mid-development. At that point, there is no way to break off from Sony.

I bet Sony also has their dick in Final Fantasy VII Remake (I highly doubt Square-Enix could bankroll that project on their own) as well whatever Marvelous is doing.

>the mods themselves biased towards Nintendo
>deleted every single state of play thread except for the shill ones
Yeah sure.

SIE is just an arm of Sony, not Sony itself. California is a cancerous cesspit of liberals and leftists. SIE employees are Californians. It's not rocket science

Wew lad, we've got some high powered autism here

I don't but that's only because I use it as my multiplat machine. If I had a PC and a PS4 the thing would certainly be collecting dust right now.

This is, quite honestly, the biggest issue.

They’ve been begging Nintendo to apply the same censorship and all they did was say Lol no.

You can't just stand up and walk away from a contract. Sony wants a products released on their console once you put your signature down. Omega Labyrinth Z was one of the few rare exceptions, since Sony probably agreed to voiding the contract themselves

Sony owns 20% of Square Enix so of course they funded the remake

They don't care about japanese games which is why western games are exempt from their censorship rules.

Are they honestly celebrating the death of a man's harmless passion? What the fuck is wrong with them?

Why don't you leave?
The cost of living there is so fucking high.

I remember when the mods stickied Persona 5r thread merely because people thought it was coming to the switch then unstickied it when it was false. Not to mention they allow the Smash flooding and shill threads while any other promotion thread for another company is deleted

Don't they though? Japanese companies always want the praise of their home companies. Losing all the Japanese support will make Sony a Western company in all but name. There's no going back from there either.

They never were

What about the rest of censored games to appear on the PS4 over the course of the last year? You really expect us to believe they were ALL censored "in-house" and not by Sony directly?

Japs interest on consoles have decrease a lot thanks to mobile and PC .

Japanese deva are jumping ship from Sony fast they're actually making more new games for the PS4. Wait a minute, I don't think that's how it works

>I remember when the mods stickied Persona 5r thread
Which never happened.
>Not to mention they allow the Smash flooding and shill threads while any other promotion thread for another company is deleted
They allow smash threads because the anti-Nintendo retard is spamming them both here and on /qa/ under a proxy. Also the first State of Play was stickied as are E3 shows.

It's entirely all a case of them doing it preemptively. As I said before, the only thing they wanted gone in Burst Renewal was intimacy for groping and they left every other element alone. The fact that Capcom patched the Trish nudity with no word from SIE proves that devs are doing their own cuts.

I heard PC gaming was on the rise in Japan again recently. Guess that wasn't true.

More like Sony noticed what a fucking PR nightmare DMC was becoming, since their shills couldn't just resort to the usual pedo rebuttals. And agreed to / ordered Capcom to patch it.

Literally the same shit

Sadly the Ps4 have no competition jsut like the Ps2 era now they got too greedy and they will fuck the Ps5 launch jsut like they did with the Ps3 , eventually they will have to be more competitive again and maybe then we will see mature orented games on sony's platform again .

Attached: 853122404062.png (321x322, 39K)

Real talk, Sony doesn't care about these devs, which is why only specific publishers have been hit by this
Think back at the last State of Play, or the last E3, or the one before. Did Sony ever show Persona 5 there, despite being on of their most notable exclusives? Did Sony even spare a 5 minute reel for games with anime artstyle like Valkyria Chronicles, God Eater, Code Vein, Ace Attorney Trilogy HD, Digimon, Dragon Quest? Even games like Ace Combat are a no show, even games from notable anime licenses like One Piece and Dragon Ball are a no show I picked those examples because those are games from big publishers, yet Sony obviously doesn't care about "anime games" no matter their origin because those games don't sell millions. If it comes from Japan and it's not called Final Fantasy or Resident Evil Sony doesn't care
But mind you, they did care about these games 3 or 4 years ago, it's only in the last 2 years they moved over from them, and it's only from 2019 they went full censorship

It is true.

The truth is that Sony doesn't actually have any guidelines and they flat out admitted this. The problem here is that when the game gets submitted to Sony, if they find a problem with any of the game's content, it now has to be removed and reworked. This is costly and time consuming. Devs are basically getting bullied into toning down content so they don't have to delay releases and sink more costs into projects. This is royally fucked beyond reason. I have been a huge Sony fan for decades, and this has been a crushing blow for me.

Before you reply, keep in mind that the reason Kenichiro Takaki (producer of Senran Kagura) left was BECAUSE of Sony's new policy:

gematsu.com/2019/03/kenichiro-takaki-leaves-marvelous-remains-producer-of-the-senran-kagura-series

I never said I agreed with the policy user, just that it isn't what people here.make it out to be. It seems the only thing they want gone is any content that could be considered molestation of a female, not just anything sexual

All in house.

He left because SIE is making it difficult for Japanese devs to publish their games since they have to do everything in English, not necessarily the content policy

Mary Skelter 2 was published before the policy existed. The only censorship its been through is in China due to their ban on any material referring to spirits

>All in house after Sony forced developers to comply.
Fixed.

>All in house.
Can you prove the censorship happened before Sony inspected each game?

>It seems the only thing they want gone is any content that could be considered molestation of a female, not just anything sexual
This directly contradicts the clear cut examples from the VN developers, where their VNs had to be delayed so that they could rework the CGs.
Lights among others were crying abou tit. And in Light's case they even stated that if it weren't for Sony, they could have had the PC version out instantly, but obligations towards Sony prohibited them from releasing the PC version first. All while their title was stuck in Sony's reviewing hell where they couldn't even get answers on whether or not their game was ok after they sent it to them. And this of course after already getting the usual CERO & ESRB ratings etc.

>our game was so shit; we had to rely on tits to sell it
good riddance

Less hypersexualized trash in this world is a good thing.

fucked by microsoft is only 1/3 of what is about to happen, just wait until e3

hey we already know one ass can make a average game one of the best ever made

Sony drones now

>State of Play is amazing! It's a splendid format for videogame news and the State of Plays were both amazing! Way better than the shitty Nintendo directs!

People still don't realize this isn't SIE. Anime studios are getting hit too, as are places like Akihabara. TV regulations are going wild which is why steam and black bars are getting more ridiculous. It's the 2020 Olympics clean up.

>It seems the only thing they want gone is any content that could be considered molestation of a female not just anything sexual
You're saying all of the games listed here feature molestation? If so, how did such content get past several different rating boards?

>PC has no market in Japan
Prove it instead of just repeating what random people on a mongolian basket weaving forum have been saying

>People still don't realize this isn't SIE

>All in house
Are you retarded.
In the case of Omega Labyrinth in particular we know that Sony had cancelled that because of a statement from PQube.

If they're already lowering the sales forecast why not just move it to the switch and ignore Sony altogether? The switch install base is already bigger than the PS4 in japan at this point and no one is going to support fanservice games without the fanservice, they're just throwing money in the sink at this point

>If they're already lowering the sales forecast why not just move it to the switch and ignore Sony altogether?
Chances are they're not allowed to.
The investors must be seething.

Contracts most likely but you know once that expires they're gone.

There could be a deal in place made as soon as the game started development that forces the game to release on PS4, maybe even be a PS4 exclusive until a certain amount of days pass

Devil May Cry 5

Kinda off topic but I thought this was interesting.

How do we get all the Japs to move on to PC?

One game that wasn't on that list and is still apparently censored in some countries.

well I hope they manage to keep alive long enough to learn not to fall for Sony's predatory contracts anymore, I don't see any of the other 2 being that forceful with exclusivity deals

I don't think that was a "Sony drone"

so am i supposed to go off your word or something

I'm surprised anyone even cares about Marvelous at this point.

That has nothing to do with SIE, every country has different content laws, Japan included

By making PC gaming more popular in Japan.

Women can be sexy with proper clothing. They dont need skimpy or half naked outfit to do so. Hire better designers!

>That has nothing to do with SIE
Given they censored it to avoid any troubles with SIE I would say it has everything to do with them.

>pedophile shit censored
>incels BTFO
Sounds like a win-win situation to me.

Are people really this resistant to accepting that Sony is in the fault here? Or is the thread just crawling with literal shills?

>big tits are now pedo shit

Didn't mean to imply that he was. Was just highlighting the recent 180 they did on E3 considering how he brought it up.

There's no hope for shills, they've been denying this since pqube first mentioned it and now Sony literally confirmed the new policy and they keep blinding themselves to the truth

So why was Moero Chronicles released uncut on the Switch? What about that game with the sun rays that started this? Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 on Switch has content that was removed on the PS4, how come it's only snoy that is apparently affected by this?

It's both unfortunately.

Might be a ResetEra "raid". There were some oddly hostile replies in an unrelated thread earlier.

Censorship has been an issue for decades and has always had people like this. It's why it never gets better. Too many people who like certain things getting censored or others just not caring because it doesn't affect them.

>No they fucking don't.
Takaki is literally on record saying they chose the PS4 because they wanted the tits to look nicer.

Nintendo does and thanks to that Rune Factory reborn

I'm beginning to suspect that sony fags are just straight up unironically gay. They are genuinely praising removal of anything sexy or revealing. Whatever Sony does, even if it's fucking terrible, would somehow be "a good thing" to them.

Then make the uncensored one on PC/Switch and clean it up for PS4.

Yeah sure.

seething

There is no double standards here. CERO is on everyone's asses to save ESRB ratings. Not just Nintendo. Sony CHOSE to censor japanese games, even ones that aren't being released in america.

>When Nintendo censors something due to the rating board it's their fault
>When Sony personally reviews everything that's already passed through ESRB standards and bullies developers into removing large chunks of their game just to appeal to some western sense of "liberating" puritanism, it's not their fault

But the rating boards already rated and approved the games. This is Sony saying that isn't enough, and is now restricting games on their nebulous terms even after that step.

>>when sony's forced to censor something because of the rating boards
Fine, what ratings boards forced them to censor them.

Apple v Pepper solves all your problems

Sony HQ is still in Tokyo retard. SIE is in California

How much do you want to bet that he's going to bring up that one UK ratings board that refused to rate Omega Z without actually knowing that was just for a physical release and not generally.

>>Was there a reason why you selected PS4 rather than the PS3, considering the larger install base of the PS3, particularly in Japan?
>Simply put, with making the girls cuter and aesthetically more pleasing, PS4 is a powerful machine [for that purpose] and it was easier to create what I had envisioned on the console. Also, I was not creating a AAA title so the hardware number wasn’t that much of a concern because I had trust that the fanbase will purchase if I create the game for whatever platform. I just love PS4 and PS Vita. It was taking a dive, but that was the main reason we decided to go with the PS4.

More like I'm not a man child virgin obsessed with drawn tits

Censoring adult games just defeats the fucking purpose of the rating systems and proves the publishes are just cucked.

Jesus Christ on a flaming pogo stick this place has lost it's balls. Old Yea Forums would have been furious about what Sony is doing.

>I just love PS4 and PS Vita
Ah, so power wasn't what attracted him.
Thanks for the help user.

You absolute moron.
One, that says nothing about tits.
Two, he talks about ease of development more than anything else meaning power is worthless.
Three, he was biased towards the PS4 and Vita.

a shitton of newfags who are not 18, Resetera tranny crossboarders, and people who are so loyal to a brand they would defend literally anything they do.

Why does this surprise you?

>so power wasn't what attracted him.
>Simply put, with making the girls cuter and aesthetically more pleasing, PS4 is a powerful machine [for that purpose] and it was easier to create what I had envisioned on the console.
The Vita version is something he had to put up with because of the fanbase. The PS4 version is his ideal and why he switched to it for both PBS and Burst Re:Newal.

>when the man was such a sony fanboy, it took until sony ruined Senran Kagura 7even before his very eyes as he was working on it, before he became disillusioned

Snoybois apparently do. They were crying about that Story of Seasons spinoff being Switch/PC only and Rune Factory 4 being Switch only.

>karaoke soundtrack

Old Yea Forums also shat on non-virgins. And yet the latest trend is to tell people to have sex, and unironically declaring to everyone how they are having it or have had it.

>and it was easier to create what I had envisioned on the console.
Dude, look at what you're quoting before trying to "prove" your point.
He chose it because it was easier to develop on than the PS3, which everyone knows already because the PS3 was a hot mess.

I feel awful for him.

microsoft had to bribe japs for those games. when it didn't help move xboxes in japan, they stopped cause it was a waste of money

AHEM

Again, he goes on to say he also chose it because the power lets him make the girls cuter.
dualshockers.com/senran-kagura-peach-beach-splash-producer-explains-why-its-ps4-exclusive-would-like-a-steam-release/
Here is another one where it mentions
>He also mentioned that PS4 is his favorite platform to work with: not only he likes the console, but since the visual level is high, it allows the display of the girls’ cuteness in greater detail.
Now, again, he likes the PS4, but another reasoning is because he likes how much better the girls look. That's the point of it.

1, that was my mistake, I thought it was about making the boobs look nicer but it was the cuteness looking nicer, that's on me.
2, see the link above.
3, he is but that's one reason to do it, the other is for the power.

>Aim your hate properly
It's Jews. Christianity is dying in the West so now their using feminism for there war against Aryan sexuality.

they aren't democrats. they actually hate democrats for not being left wing enough and instead promote anarcho-communist ideals and oppose the entire system the west currently runs on.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: China's the reason Sony's acting all screwy.

So is the ps5 launch going to be a disaster like the ps3 now that Sony is letting their success go to their head?

Democrats are still trying to court them and that makes them cancer still

just like republicans are trying to court neo-nazis and reddit ass magapedes

it's all about getting them votes bro.

Not over niche Japanese games

Please tell me where republicans are courting neo Nazis. I'll wait

I think it will but eventually they will have to let the devs do their job .

It's offensive to the current snoy demographic

>, that was my mistake
You should have stopped there. You were wrong, that's all.
>2, see the link above.
The link above confirms power was tertiary.
>3, he is but that's one reason to do it, the other is for the power.
Then why is it always secondary?
Even here dualshockers.com/senran-kagura-peach-beach-splash-interview-producer-talks-ps4-fanservice-vr-features-and-much-more/
It was more about VR and ease of development than the power itself and he says he would like to work on the Switch which at the time was known as the NX

It's also worth noting that in that interview he talks about working with Nintendo and how they didn't impose any rules on him.

charllotseville, president of the US and head of the republican party was literally doing damage control for them in order to keep them voting for them in the mid terms and beyond

This man has the purest desires. It's a shame Sony trampled them.

Sony will keep winning and selling millions by making games for adults, while the dozen pedophile incels will move over to the Switch to enjoy their anime tiddies at a crispy 720p with a silky smooth 30fps docked, 576p with 15 fps portable.

Maybe but there has to be more than a bunch of censored japanese games to make the PS5 to be like the PS3 all over again i.e. pull something like what Microsoft did with the Xbone as in no exclusives, 24/7 DRM, and expensive as hell.

Japanese analysis, Hideki Yasuda has already predicted PS5 will sell 22M units in the first fiscal year. Mind you his predictions are rarely ever wrong.

>Then why is it always secondary?
Why mention it at all? He could have easily just stopped at "Because I like working with Sony". It at least factors into something for him though you could ask me the same question why he doesn't just go to PC instead. Sure, he mentions VR and easy of development (Compared to PS3), but again, he mentions the power "makes the girls look cuter". If this wasn't the case he would be making mainlines on Switch like Burst and Deep Crimson were on the 3DS because the graphical quality doesn't matter to him but he hasn't as of yet. He's made a VN and a pinball game that aren't very involved or graphically intensive in any way.

Do you really want to compare Sony and Nintendo first party sales?

>but again, he mentions the power "makes the girls look cuter"
Yes because what he likes is cute girls and he had the chance to make cuter girls as a result of his choice rather than being the reason for the choice which is exactly what makes it a secondary reason.

>He's made a VN
>reflexions
>VN
Also if you hadn't noticed they haven't made a new mainline title since 2.

One of the cited, official reasons for the censorship. Was unironically to protect the children playing Playstation.

You mean when Trump said both sides were bad and that the only ones who actually showed up to the protest were the antifa whom were blocking roads and attacking cars? Antifa also has literal communists mind you

You mean how Sony's first party game is currently outselling every Nintendo first party game right now in Japan alone?
