The censorship:
So you can't show dicks, can't show someone getting ripped apart, can't participate in torture
I have no problem with that, it's their culture, their society, they've been censoring dicks for decades so it isn't special treatment, don't cry about it now when you grovel to censor to sell in the Middle East and China.
Wait, how come I can't have the "no genitalia" option outside of Japan, too?
I mean, I thought Japan had a sort of "anything goes" thing when it came to cartoon porn.
I, on the other hand, come from a culture where cartoon characters never had gentials ...
According to the quote, you can - you just have the option to turn the censorship off, while the Japanese version doesn't.
Ah, OK.
Not good for them, though.
As a 'cultured' individual, no Japan censors drawn genitalia too, I've seen more black bars on naughty bits that it resembles a barcode.
The 'anything goes' for Japanese drawings is in the concepts, there's some REALLY fucked up shit if you know what tags to search, I'm just happy with vanilla, oyakodon and mind break thank you very much lol
"This isn't penis, this is a tentacle monster's appendage."
"Oh carry-on then."
"YAMETE KUDASAI!!!"
I only know oyakodon as a delicious chicken and egg dish.
Now I'm scared.
Yes, it's a nice dish, it translates to 'parent and child' or in this sense 'mother and daughter'
So careful where you say you fancy some oyakodon hahaha
Years back I meet someone on reddit who had read all the Goro on n hentai, so I asked him for his recommendation of the worst three.
I regret my decision.
Anything goes, apart from non pixilated genitals
This is the game that the kids are supposed to be playing in South Park?
Yeah I know it's South Park but in the past it would've been Halo or Warcraft or KOTOR. Now the new hotness is a game where you can literally whip your dick out? For a bunch of kids?
I don't know, been years since I've watched South Park.
All I know is Japan censors all versions of genitalia in media, regardless of real or drawn. They also censor vomit too. It's a non issue since it's been long established, no rule change it's like getting angry at the Middle East for censoring any gay content.
It's cartman. He was also extremely interested in the Nintendo wii
Warcraft was featured but all 4 boys played it
I'm just saying that elementary school kids didn't have the ability to have sex with people in games 10-20 years ago.
Remember the controversy around the "Hot Coffee mod" with Rockstar getting threatened by government officials over a feature that wasn't even in the game? (the code was there but they hid any way to get to it before release)
Now if my triple A title doesn't include a press-X-to-fuck-the-goddess minigame it's fucking lame.
Oh bullshit.
Yes, graphically things are very different now, but I came of age in the 80s and 90s and there was plenty of downloadable porn, pornographic games, etc. The early days of the Internet were wild.
I played a Star Trek text adventure game where you could fuck Troi, explicitly.
Before the Internet, there was a local BBS (does anyone remember those) with two phones lines--most only had one--that you could dial in on that had degenerate shit, super tame by today's standards, but pictures, stories, games, etc.
Leisure Suit Larry? From the 80s. https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/romancing-the-code-the-hooker-scene-in-leisure-suit-larry
The same as BG3/Witcher sex scenes? Nope, but this shit has only grown with the technology. It's been there since early days.
to be fair, they could have just checked to see what new game was hot right now, and BG3 was at the top of some list, so they went with that.
Keep in mind, though, This was a scene from the south park movie...
Yeah the japanese have never participated in torture, not part of their culture at all.
To be fair, that was YOUR fault for clicking on 177013 (/s but don't search the number if you want a nice evening)
I was thinking more about 731
I was going for the joke more, plus can't really use them as if the Americans have taught us anything, so long as you're smart enough and show material results, you get a pardon and a cheque.
It's only torture when you can't make rockets or vaccines afterwards...
