Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door censors catcalling!?

After all the drama that have happened with 40k and Stellar Blade Im in a total war against woke/political correctness. They ruin everything, they just want to change everything just for the sake of changing things so they can go on social media and scream "hey... im helping! I saved the world!".

We should have gatekeeped harder, like just bully anyone. Now we have to deal with people praising homosexual animal sex (Baldurs Gate 3) but demanding change to hot women ourtfit (Stellar Blade) or really silly jokes like this case right here. Nobody can have fun if it is not on their terms

@KenaiPhoenix Homosexual Animal sex >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Your waifu.

@KenaiPhoenix Agreed with everything here. The hypocrisy of censorship and the amount of people offended by these things is astronomical. A good example of these people that should gtfo is post #4 of this thread. Imagine being so mad about being called out you have to call other's "asshat" and "delusional". Take your own advice child.

Update: recently confirmed the entire script was likely rewritten for a modern audience.

Can you still squeeze Flurrie's tits to make her blow air? 0/10 literally unplayable if not.

@DreamWindow yes that's still in it also people liked flurrie?


also OP acting like the first release didn't censor lines out lmao.

@FanofAction stellar blade wasn't even censorship the creator themselves confirmed that the models we saw were literally unfished versions.

@Lucifrost

@GrimAtrament I meant that to be comparing this to what I thought was more a more justified stance against the people who were complaining about Stellar Blade. I threw in that bit to make sure no one thinks me calling this out means I'm for censorship. I want to be very clear that I'm not, and I just think this particular thing isn't that big an issue.

Unless you played the original Japanese version and actually know Japanese, you can’t really tell if there were changes from the original or not.
It’s very possible that the English localization in the game cube was the one that actually made changes and the switch version is closer to the original Japanese version.

@rohan121 so where's your source on the edit princess peach shower when i literally just showed it was the same? seems like to me you're suffering from the usual confirmation bias "insert boogyman out to get us." nonsense I see all over this site.

*insert eye role here*. Ok, I can agree all the Stellar Blade stuff was complete nonsense. Censorship bad, so on and so forth. This however.....Why is this worth making a fuss about? If this was about them covering up mermaid Peach more in her new game, I'd be on board with calling it out. But this? Seriously? People are going to get up in arms about this? Catcalling a female goomba? If you want to bang a goomba, just say so, fuck. Why do you need this to enjoy the game?

Let me be perfectly clear, I'm not saying that they should or shouldn't have made this change. I'm saying complaining about this particular change is kinda sad imo.

@FanofAction That does go both ways. If we're talking about pretty much insignificant changes, then why is it so important to censor them in the first place? It's a purely reductive argument to make the problem about any one change itself and not the principle/reality of censorship. I think it's a big problem if a product of its time can't exist today without having to be sanitized for political correctness, perhaps barring something truly egregious. Games shouldn't have a political onus placed on them, but that seems to be a pipe dream in our modern world.

@LostSpectre Well, yeah. Questionable wording aside, I was never intending to imply that this is a change that needs to happen in my previous posts. I understand why anyone would be against something like this. It sets a precedent for this becoming more and more normalized in an attempt to please people who probably won't even play the games to begin with. Like with Lollipop Chainsaw, how they switched from a remake to a remaster because people were afraid a remake would change too many things. At least from what I read.

I get the anti-censorship mindset. My issue is purely with the people who get way too worked up over things and too caught up in political name-calling , because it doesn't paint people who are against censorship in a good light. I'm more of a choose my battles kinda person with these things. A change like this is dumb if it's real, but it's not something I feel the need to get really up in arms about. Maybe that's not the best stance to take, but that's my stance.

@Tropisch The only thing I'm offended by is people stuck in 2015. Changing some minor-ass dialouge in Paper Mario won't mean the end of the world, and implying that being a toxic asshat will fix everything is beyond delusional.

That's the best stance you can take. Seeing this culture war clash of people butting heads over the stupidest things is sad to watch.

@FanofAction I strongly disagree with it, but I'm not personally wasting much energy on it, that's futile. The winds of social justice infected gaming over a decade ago, that's just the reality now. Maybe in the future we'll mature enough that feminists aren't literally trying to make female characters look uglier (there's so many examples) so that said characters won't be reduced to "objects" sexual or otherwise by players, but we're certainly not there yet. Now, I'm not saying that every game (and all media, really) falls victim to this mindset, but the bigger or more mainstream it is, the more likely it will be influenced by such attitudes.

The people against woke censorship are automatically branded as incels, racists, right wing, etc. so there's no such thing as a "good light".

@WaffleMaster89 With the power of hindsight, there is really no such thing as stupid battle. If we let anything slide, we'll just be in a death by thousand cuts situation.
It's not just relevant here, but as a general life lesson. Just look at how far gaming has come from the Oblivion horse armor dlc.

@JaniSIr Imagine thinking your fighting a war by bitching about manifactured non-troversies everyone will forget about in a week, all because you can't accept people different than you can enjoy the same things you do, or express themselves through those things, or have a voice at all because you hate them.

But I get it, NPCs not catcalling a Goomba in the new Mario is just as bad as Nintendo's shady anti-consumer practices.
