    That graffiti story is honestly hilarious. It's definitely just a coincidence with no ill intent because the studio is not an American one. I could see there being a case if this was an American studio behind the game where one artist just tried to do something cheeky but this is clearly just cultural obliviousness. I'm reminded of that amazing Linus hard r clip.

      ​@@freeweights101 Unlike console, the user power is strong. You can get specific game builds that you prefer even if it's not 'officially acceptable'. Which means even if a game updates randomly(Skyrim) you can just play the old build with your old mods, and they'll always work.
      Another example is Palworld. In older builds you could 'catch' bosses, and it was patched out now. I own Palworld, but I still got the old build just to get the bosses, then port over my save to my official copy.
      I own a game, and I should be able to play it how I want, which is impossible to do on console.
      Besides, "games getting removed" was never the argument. The argument was a game change that causes user content to disappear. That would include mods, and even relates to Nintendo copyright removing mods from Gary's Mod.
      Unlike console, PC lets you just grab those mods and user content from non publisher sites anyway.

      @mitrikgaduk347 Před měsícem +11

      It wasn't a mistake, it was "unintentional", and the only people that viewed it that was was Journalists. It's literally stated that there are multiple graffiti just like the HARD one around and this wasn't a unique placement, it seems when the environment was designed, these were pre-designed by the art team, and then placed by the level designers in locations they thought were appropriate. As stated by Bellular, English is unlikely everyone at the studio's first or second language, nor would they know any Western euphemisms or even be aware of cultural, historical, or other related issues. It's like someone in the states tattooing the Chinese character for "Shit" on their body and calling it cool, a Westerner would be oblivious to that. I'd imagine someone just thought the art looked dope and wanted to place it next to the shop, they likely know what "HARD" means, and having that as you walk by to the shop probably seemed cool in their mind. This is a classic infuriating case of Hanlon's Razor: assuming malice instead of stupidity/ignorance/etc. In this case it's not even ignorance or obliviousness, why should they have to be aware of Western bullshit to begin with?
      Like, what the fuck is wrong with people, if that's the first thing they thought when they saw this, it's a serious "them" issue. Cause' remember "everything is sexist, everything is racist, blah blah blah cry me a fucking river".
      That saying also is right on the money, it's like looking at a grown woman and immediately thinking of someone who isn't an adult, it's incredibly creepy. Thinking Eve looks like a child is totally absolutely fucking racist and when they are presented with any eastern woman they immediately think the same thing. I've seen European women, Latinas, and Russians get the same shit too.

  • @soulechelon2643
    @soulechelon2643 Před měsícem +58

    Can very safely say the "Hard R" incident was not intended by the Stellar Blade devs. I have a number of friends outside America that were confused by the backlash as they didn't know the potential meaning either. And as a black person myself I didn't even care. I doubt most of us did. Interestingly enough, the only people I've personally seen online get mad about it never mention their race or are straight up white. I swear this savior mentality is only painting a bigger target on our backs because people keep thinking we're the ones getting riled up when the majority of us either laugh at this sort of thing or aren't bothered by it.
    And the change I wouldn't call "censorship" either; at least not extreme. I don't like censorship in any form and whenever Stellar Blade comes out on PC, if someone makes a mod bringing that "Hard R" back in, I'll happily install it myself. But I can understand why they changed it. It's one of those cultural things that means nothing to one but something bad to another. It also has zero impact on the game and doesn't hurt the integrity of the game's vision in general.
    Happy to see the game's getting praises. As mentioned I'm definitely grabbing it whenever it hits PC.

      I think part of the problem is the assumption by a lot of twitter that everyone has the same knowledge and cultural context as the USA as it is the dominate cultural lens on twitter. I'm not from the USA so when I first saw the HARD R thing my brain first went to does this something to do with the R word. Its not that the N word isn't a slur here it definitely is but its an imported one from the USA so we don't have all the different knowledge on the variations of it that exist.
      Also if the developer did want to put some bigoted graffiti in the game odds are most westerns wouldn't have noticed as the studio is Korean and odds are they would have used used bigoted slang that is local to Korea not the USA.

      @@MrMpa31 sure, but if a company’s going to use a creators work as marketing or in game content with an offer for compensation then it’s basically a version of voluntary serfdom. I’m not saying that they shouldn’t make stuff, just that they should be offered compensation when those items are used to sell the product.

    There are 3 elements to the Stellar blade Censorship.
    They change Graffiti which I think most people get.
    They toned down gore so it is interesting to see this was a Japan influence thing.
    But they absolutely also toned down costumes.
    I think the rage is because they said they would not censor and I think there was a push to support them for this, and a lot of people are frustrated by Sony censoring so much as of late, I mean you get more of the original vision on Nintendo now. And this sort of bait and switch will not have have a positive outcome if this was a marketing ploy it just stain this franchise and Sony as whole for something no one would have cared about if they had not made the claim. The game is plenty sexy and violent as is, its just this perceived lie.
