      Yeah I am from Germany and we had litterly Decades of censorship in video game mostly for gore, but also other stuff. Now we are finally at a point where the USK (who does the rating for video games) basically let everything release without any censorship, especially gore. But now publishers, developers, etc. suddenly start censoring the games. It's like people want to go back to times, where you don't even have the possibility as an adult to choose what you want to play.

      well. at least morally it is. but they can just say. the physical copy is uncensored as advertised. and if you use your psn account to update the game its your fault. at least thats what I guess they would say. if there would be law action. long story short. dont think it would have any effect

      @wahtari2994 x here too, I grew up heavy with Playstation and usually got the other consoles later on.
      Did this until the ps4, and love all the Japanese exclusive games on it, until 2017 when I got a mid range pc and Switch and then noticed all the censorship on the ps4, and then I fully switched to the Switch and Pc and now I mainly play on pc now
      The Ps5 is the only Playstation I have no interest in buying, and I have bought every Playstation device like the handhelds and Cammeras (ps2/ps3/ps4), move and Vr
      My favorite console of all time is the Ps2 and Dreamcast

    PSA Alyssa mercante was the first person to make comparisons between baldur's gate and stellar blade saying that beastiality in baldurs gate is good sexuality but stellar blade having a conventionally attractive woman as the main character of a game with no nudity and no sex scenes is bad sexuality. Her issue not being the lack of nudity and sex just that eve didnt at least have mans face put on her body or was lesbian or had sex with animals if eve would do any of that stellar blade would be good by alyssa' standards.

    It confuses me that in a game, you can have sex with a bear and multiple other characters with full nudity - and that is fine. (As it should be - we are adults). But then there is another game where you can not have any sex at all, but the character is hot and you can dress her up - but that is not fine.

In my own case Sony paid for their own censorship and then they paid shift up for me. Fuck Sony!!!! do the same if you’re able.

      That is bait & switch.
      Sony/ShiftUp would be liable.

      I don't play on console, I'm on PC... I can get mods galore but people that got digital only get a vastly different game than was promoted.
      So, it's either Forced Censorship in a M rated game, or Everything promoted was a lie... One can be fixed easily, the other by law suit.
      And discover would be funny.
      But you can't simply blame ESRB... Because they allowed Drunkman self insert to bang Abby, They allowed Bear Sex, they allowed RDR 1 to show boobs & nipple.
      These are Adult Rated Games.... That's a category you find on steam.

    Sucks about the censorship of the few outfits in the game. I still feel it changes too little to not support the game if you were going to because most importantly the game is actually really good, relatively bug free, runs well, good music good visuals no mtx and despite the few outfits being censored the game as a package is something we want to see more of in the industry as far as chatacter design.
    This game being a smashing success has more positives than negatives
