This is why i quit PS

[Dollmaker]

Sony just sucks and gets increasingly worse.

Highly biased and hypocritical censorship that borders on racism.

Terrible security over their users info.

And now the whole PSN requirement nonsense that bans several countries of playing the games at all just cause of it.

Doesnt help that a lot of their exclusives just arent good (not this one may i add, this game is good, unlike that fanfic that calls itself sequel)


But yeah, screw them, im glad i quit when i did, my gaming experience improved tremendously when i moved to PC, specially cause of the indie games.

What have they censored that borders on racism?

Just about any eastern or anime-like ones.

Those games often come censored in PS with no way to restore them.

Stellar Blade is a recent example.

But despite games like BG3 or CP77 allowing full uncensored nudity, some cleavage on an anime game is too much for them.

Just search "Sony biased censorship" and youll likely find threads about them censoring anime/eastern titles.

Agree on that but racism too ?
I just wanted to be a step ahead with my comment.

Its just that its telling they specifically target those types of games that largely come from Eastern Devs.

Or anime-like ones.

Theres a clear bias going there.

They are no overlords and have to obey laws too.
Some countries will see some kind of content as not suitable for all age groups or any age group. They want cash - As much cash they can get, worldwide.

Again, they allow games like BG3 and CP77 that have full uncensored nudity which goes FAR beyond what these other titles tend to go, usually just showing some skin.

Likely because anime games are often have characters that are underaged or appear so, which is a much more sensitive topic in the EU and US than it is in Japan. US and European games also get censored when localising to countries that have different cultural values. The alternative is not localising and selling those games

Maybe these companies should stop being scared of another culture, and trying to "fix" them.

And western localization itself is another problem that rampant, a lot coming from spiteful idiots that dont deserve their jobs when they clearly hate the media they work on.

OP was also defending the creation of underaged characters in the Dragons Dogma 2 Character Creation forums, so I'm not surprised they're here to complain about Sony censorship policies too.

Were you one of the many that got banned in said forums for harassing me and others that wanted short characters?

No, but I kinda just stopped showing up since there was you and some other bloke going on and on about said topic and I wasn't vibing with it.

Well youre better than most at least.

Cause i wasnt lying, like 5+ people got banned cause they kept harassing me and others on those forums cause we wanted the 140 cm height that the first game had.

Example of this, Tsukihime remake visual novel. In the package, it is accompanied with artbook. Now the game is basically marketed on Nintendo Switch and Sony PS 4 (this game old but just get localized). Now the artbook is basically uncensored in switch version, but sony version is censored. The game is rated M.

This is not only 1 example btw, there are a lot, and lot of them are game from Japan or Asia (Stellar Blade). Even on AAA landscape, they get caught. The prominent example is 1 cutscene on DMC. Other than sony basically no censor, in sony, censored with light. Comparing the cutscene: DMC has nothing vulgar (no sex, no sensitive sexual organ being shown), meanwhile TLOU 2.... well you know.

Not denying Sony over censors just not seeing it bordering on racism. With the only claim made so far is Asian games, mostly anime based, are censored ignoring the fact that western games are likely also censored when being sold in Asia
