Will Based Mods Fix the Censoring Once it Releases?

[Paladin Larec]

For those who don't know, Based Mods is a site that has been known to fix censorship in games or fix westernized translations (Like Eiyuden Chronicles) so I'm wondering if anyone who is a part of that site or knows those running it have heard about preperations for any mods to put the crosses back/fix the troll lips/fix the female warrior etc etc.

Thanks ahead of time.

Yes. There are multiple threads here discussing this -- https://steamcommunity.com/app/2701660/discussions/0/4840896974229784576

SE will likely make the game extra unmoddable so people cannot fix it.

Forget BasedMods, the real free mod site has just appeared with a decent HUD and organization.

Why would you reward them with your money for censoring the game?

Because when they go "Where did all these sales go?" they want to leave no ambiguity.

How many sites do you need for mods that are just meant to turn black characters white and remove pride flags?

Exactly. I encourage those posting NOT to buy the game but ALSO support (download & share) content that restores the art to the form it should have been.

That sends about as clear a message as you can send. It also helps preserve the proper art from the effort that Square Enix is actively making to scrub the original designs from history (including the creator- Yuji Horii's own comments).

You're aware they're not coming for the other versions of the game, right? The original cartridges, mobile/Switch version, etc. are going to be unaffected. Given the fact that all of that will still be there, how are they scrubbing the original designs from history?

Personally, I beg to differ:

Ryujinx was just taken down the other day. Yuzu was taken down in March 2024. Vimm's Lair was taken down in June 2024. RHDN was taken down in August 2024. They are also trying to go after the Internet Archive as we speak..

All of this happened in the last 7 months.

Let's not forget that in the past week, Square Enix has actively been trying to take down any videos of Yuji Horii's recent interview from anywhere it is hosted online.

As many as is humanly possible.

for what it's worth the in game sprite still basically looks the same since it's a near flesh tone outfit. Why they did that instead of going for the black outfit they had for Stars I got no idea cuz out of the three I thought that one was the most visually appealing.
