Yup, it did it, lol, it's visible on the logs. Despite the fact I've posted here before before the filter was set to strict!
Testing to see if it does it to me here (it's done it on other posts recently)
...Am I being shadowbanned? With no account it says this post was deleted.
I'm not particularly fond of the Soviets, but I'm glad they opposed that.
I know a bit of Japanese (only the basics you'd get in a classroom), do you happen to know how/in what way they simplified the characters? Was it like the simplified Chinese deal where they removed meaningful components to simpler but meaningless strokes?
The frustrating thing is that the "big conservative" types are still strongly influenced by feminism so that they essentially hold both the "women are completely capable" view AND the "men are to blame for how women act" view.
I tried making a post a while back, but Dom said that it wasn't visible to others, lol. I just lurk so I don't care, but I guess if all new comments are blocked, at that point you guys should just have a private community somewhere else.
Oops, I didn't realize that I was yelling into a void.
I was informed on the Kotaku in Action subreddit that this is actually an accurate translation, unbelievably. There's a lot of context in other games that also explains what I thought were "liberal views," so it's not just localizers putting in their personal politics into things.
I still think using "white supremacist" is stupid since this game isn't in the real world, though.
I presume that the use of "white supremacists" here is due to localizers, but there's quite a bit in this game that feels like something a liberal would write. A lot of "anti-anti-immigration" in side conversations, the worship of "cultural diversity" and "religious ecumenicalism"...
This is my first Trails game, so I'm not familiar with the series at all. Is this stuff present in the Japanese and other games in the series?
The fear is a least a little justified because thanks to feminism women seem to be ruder in general when they reject, or you run the risk of being accused of sexual harassment. If you are in college or the workplace, this is pretty much a death sentence for a man.
There's also that if you are an average or ugly guy and get rejected over and over again with no real success beyond one date for a girl, eventually that guy will say, "Why bother?" and could be working on personal improvement... or playing video games.
I guess I'm in the MGTOW camp too, though I'm fat so I don't qualify for the men described in your post, lol. (This is my fault and I know I need to change it.)
I've not completely "dropped out" since I'm working on a doctorate, but I definitely have no desire to "do anything" in the sense of having a real career. As long as I have a stable job and can make 50K a year, I will be completely content with that until I die.
To me, this society isn't really worth participating in except to care for my family as they grow old and guide the people I meet to Christ. I know the latter sounds cringe, but I think for me personally, that's the only thing I can do to help this society actually be worth living in.
I kept lurking silently! Great news to see, thanks for the update.
