Modding to get the scene uncensored?
Is anyone in the process of working on or know anyone who has modded the original Japanese cut scene into the game? To get rid of that crappy censored Laphicet scene?

Why on earth would you bother? You've probably seen the actual scene already and if not a simple search on Youtube will get you what you're looking for. The only thing that was changed was some ESRB bollocks because "imaginary children getting stabbed my swords is bad, but magic is fine"

its not likely to happen.. the scene isn't pre-rendered, its rendered in game

THat would require access to the japanese code, and tools to extract and recompile the assets. You know how much work that would be for a 8 minute scene?

Just pause the game at the cutscene and watch it on youtube, or play the entire game in japanese, or mod it yourself, or don't play it at all.

It really depends on whether the JP version assets and script are still in this version and weren't fully overwritten. It could very well be as easy as just changing the script that's being called to trigger the scene or as hard as having to reinsert the assets and the coding from the JP console version to the PC version.

Just pause it, go to youtube, and see a child get impaled on a longsword and dropped off it instead.

There you go. PEGI crisis averted, and M rating dodged.

Now back to your regularly progressing game.


It's not possible to "mod" this as it requires rebuilding that scene in the game. It's not pre-rendered and it's an "in-engine" cutscene. You'd have to basically redevelop and rebuild the game just to change a small cutscene.
Honestly? Not worth the complications. All that for about a minute of cinematic?

Dude stabbing a kid with a sword - Awesome
Dude stabbing a kid with TWO Magic swords - Crappy

Funny, especially when the core is the same.

Dude stabbing a kid.

I also dislike that people want their games to be perfect...

Stop bickering, you only see the cutscene once in a playthrough and you can see the uncensored on youtube, get the hell over it.

I'm surprised no one made a mod either. That scene is a cutscene, they probably could rip the video from the PS3 version to replace that video file. The English audio will not be available, but I can't imagine too many people played this in English audio.

that won't work, its not a pre-rendered cutscene (a pre-rendered cut scene being basically a video file).. the cutscene is rendered in game, just like a battle or you traversing the map, thats why cosmetic accessories can be seen on velvet if equiped,,

Where can I get the Japanese version of this game for PC?

you can't, there is no Japanese version for the PC.. PC gaming is quite unpopular in Japan (with the exception of MMO's and VN's), so most Japanese devs don't bother porting to the platform.. this port for example was handled by the localization team..


so no Japanese version for the PC.. you would have to go with either a PS4 or PS3 to play the Japanese version..


granted, as someone who has played the Japanese version (on PS3, I don't currently own a PS4), I will tell you that this one edited scene does not actually alter the games story, themes or characterization (which alot of people, mostly those who haven't played the game, keep saying it does).. the games story characters and themes remain entirely intact
