The final word on the console changes - Master Thread

"It is an objective, indisputable FACT that the game, despite the recent events that we all find distasteful, has retained it's dark, realistic, gritty tone." Sure, albeit less so than before the changes; evidenced by the fact that the changes had to be made in the first place.

"Less so" is certainly debatable, yes. However, that wasn't my point. I very specifically said I was referring to the people who continually claim that the whole thing has been changed, and that it's now somehow "family friendly" and "just like every other generic shooter out there."

Also, VOID hasn't exactly inspired confidence on this issue and has also misinformed its player base. First we were told future DLC will not need to be restricted for consoles. See the Q&A and post #7 by Kaminsky in this very thread. Then people were insulted by admins on this forum for proposing what would be an obvious solution if that were the case. Namely: a free DLC (PC exclusive) reverting the changes for those who want that.

Absolutely no disagreement here whatsoever. Again though, that's not what we were talking about.

As for the tone of the game, like I said, I agree the overall tone is still intact but now that the console regulators need to be appeased, who's to say a game designer won't think twice about adding certain content out of fear of the game still getting that AO rating. We won't know obviously but it will definitely dissuade me from buying any future DLC.

When you say "game designer" I assume that you're referring to designers of this game, not other games. I genuinely don't think that's the case, and I think it's a bit unfair to boot. If they truly wanted to sanitize this game, and had no regard for maintaining the original vision, then they would have removed far more than the absolute, bare minimum that was required for the console release. With all the noise, it's easy to overlook the fact that the game is still filled to the brim with incredibly dark stuff that no other devs would dare to touch.

I don't think they want to deliberately sanitise the game and would agree to that being an unfair assessment of the mindset at VOID. I think it is fair to say that, seeing as there is apparently a fine line between what is acceptable for a game on consoles and what is not, there is a risk of future content being censored (albeit subconsciously) to avoid further conflicts with console regulators. Only time will tell I guess.
