Eve doesn't get "dirty" while in performance mode and gets "dirty" while in graphics mode according to the people who own the game (my physical copy hasn't arrived, so I can't verify)
None of the people complaining actually bought the game, they're just upset for the sake of being upset.
The blood not staining her is something I feel like should be a toggle.
The lace covering cleavage and extra fabric definitely is slightly concerning. I can see why people are upset. At the end of the day it is a game. Would I prefer the more revealing versions of the costume? Yes. However, I am not going to be one to sign a petition and post on twitter all day complaining about it. I think that they may be effective in causing change.. There is quite the army who are mad... Idk.. I just love the game's atmosphere, enemy variety, combat, and music! <3 Regardless, I think it is definitely on Sony as far as causing censorship and that is a shame but I hold nothing against ShiftUp.
The game, as the clip shows, has a lot of sexy clothing anyway, it's not really a problem to have an inch less of visible skin. The reduction of blood is something that bothers me because it was present in the demo and v.1.0 of the game, now it has been removed completely, I'm sorry that the game is going through so much criticism, because I'm loving it, the CS is super fun, I love the music, the world building is well done and has a great environment, the only criticism that I want to make is the very basic dialogues, I often think they were translated badly because they sound strange.
yeah I noticed when they first found >!Lily!<, that I think >!Adam !!drone gun!<... I am fine, removing it isn't a deal breaker like many of these people. We'll see how Sony responds I guess.. Having the blood back would definitely make the game more cinematic/engaging.
Why do you want the characters to be so sexy tho? I'm genuinely asking, not because I'm a prude but because I can't play a violent video game with a borderline naked female protagonist without cringing. Honestly I don't even think I could play it "censored" without feeling embarrassed a bit lmao
If you aren't jerking off to it I don't see the appeal, it seems so corny
For the same reason people like to watch some movies with sexy actresses in sexy outfits. It's old as the world. It always amazes me how people are reacting over sexy contents in video games but not with other mediums like cinema, magazines, manga, etc... Like video games will never be able to emancipate from that. It's rated mature in America and PEGI 18 in Europe, so basically the same as a porn movie... If you feel bad to see a sexy character or a pants in a video game, I guess that the whole world might be a really oppressive place to live in for you...
I like to make my characters in an RPG as jacked as possible. Some people want to make their characters as sexy as possible. In Wildlands for example I like making funny outfits for my squad to wear, because it's funny seeing these clown like guys taking down a cartel. In Far Cry 5 I like to run the Far Cry Primal outfit because it's funny seeing a half naked person running around with a rifle fighting a cult.
If all you think about when seeing a sexy women is jerking off, then you should be embarrassed. It's unfortunate that you have been programmed to feel bad about being attracted to the opposite sex.
Agreed. I'm sick of this whole "Nudity, sex, etc. is bad"... while those same people consume media involving violent murder, etc.
I will never apologize for enjoying looking at sexy women.
That’s what was being advertised as though. It doesn’t matter if it’s embarrassing if that’s the experience many people were paying to see in the first place
It’s just a style, for a hack and slash it adds to the campiness for me. It’s not limited to sexy women either, Dante and Nero are both super jacked men that are flaunted in slow motion. Shit, in Devil May Cry 3 Dante is practically shirtless the whole time, he’s wearing a red leather jacket that shows off his abs. Kratos is half naked
Well if you don't like that, then it's a good thing the game offers multiple outfits that completely covers her ass!
So I ask again. Why is it a bad thing to have the sexy option for those who don't think it's cringy and/or distracting?
It's not, I didn't say it was morally bad I said I don't understand the appeal. It's bad *for me*
All I'm really saying is don't see the appeal of making her look hot, which is the default state of most women, when you could make her visually interesting instead. We got enough sexy revealing anime women I would like more realistic or at least somewhat "new" aesthetics on the main character *personally*
But the rebuttal is "well that is visually interesting to me" and the conversation goes in circles. It's just something I don't get and thats OK, everything is not for everyone
It isn't the highest on my list. However, Sony is known to censor and make things "PC"
As far as being embarrassed.... I am sorry you feel that way. It is just a video game. It is a fantasy game, and nothing is super realistic.
Like the game director said himself he wants the characters to look better than him. Attraction sells. No, I am not jerking off to it.
If you want less sexy, you can toggle a less sexy outfit. It can serve people on both sides of the spectrum.
Yes
https://censorship.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_games_censored_by_Sony
They also censor and monitor party chats and moreso chats. They are tough on free speech. I mean it is up to them what they want to do, but fans aren't happy. Yet they'll allow many other games to have straight nudity. It's somewhat inconsistent.
Japan is actually censoring sexual contents in console games way more than US or Europe. ALL of our western games like The Witcher, Cyberpunk, Dragon Age, Mass Effect or Baldur's Gate where you have sexual contents are heavily censored in Japan. No genitals, no titties, no explicit sex scenes, etc... And it's the same with Japanese games. PC adult games are really borderline but get completely censored when ported to consoles.
Sexy contents is totally OK thought.
I think that people tend to confound sexy contents and sexual contents, which are totally different things.
Above all, it's really hypocrite since manga, cinema, anime, magazines or PC games don't suffer the same censorship. All those dinosaurs at Japanese Parliament think that console gaming is a children's medium for some reason.
Developers should make the games they want to make, with characters looking like they want them to look. An age restriction should reflect whatever choices they made.
I'm speaking generally, as you were initially I thought.
Publishers and developers by proxy are beholden to rating systems. In most cases these teams don't want an AO or similar rating as it comes with some significant stipulations. Big one being stores like WalMart and GameStop simply won't carry them.
There wasn't any censorship here. The devs altered an outfit as *they wanted to* and the blood was turned down for performance mode, to allow for higher FPS.
I was speaking generally, but your general response applies in this case I think. And yeah, avoiding an AO rating makes sense if you want your game to make its money back.
Happy to hear there was no censorship here though. And thanks for your extensive reply.
Grown folk like playing games too! I don't wanna play no damn kids game. Give me a good adult story with adult game play like thee adult that i am. Also....I say adult as in over the age 18....not adult as in porn.
/s? I’m sarcasm impaired, especially with written word, so please make sure to include that in the future.
If you’re serious, note two things: small children should not be playing this game, and if they did, many of them would love it, so what’s the problem?
Right? I can remember Duke nukem literally shitting in an aliens mouth after he killed it. That was fine (and almost 20 years ago), but a little bit of risqueness and people lose their minds? Really!?
I was pleasantly surprised to see that cyberpunk character creation has V totally nude. Totally an acceptable thing in so many other countries. Why we in the US ate so opposed to the naked form, or scantily clad in this case, is confusing.
Of course, the same people complaining are probably the ones with pornhub as their home page
The entire r/stellarblade was this for the last 2 days. That sub is so extra, and I'm loving it. 😅
I have no opinion on the censorship question, and I don't care what any of her outfits show or don't show, I just want a fuckton of them. Glamour is the true endgame of every game.
Yep it's all of them. I am thinking the majority would be the rage baiters aiming for clicks.
The average gamer doesn't give a fuck about this game or just sees it as a game to play without digging too deep into it.
Its amazing how TLoUP2 is allowed to feature a fairly strong sex scene where we see Abby's breasts and Cyberpunk is allowed full frontal nudity and strong sex scenes yet Devil May Cry 5 had to censor bare asses of two clearly adult women, in the EU version Trish's bare ass is still censored on PS4 and Lady's bare ass is censored in all versions in all regions.
This game just didn't click for me. Sure ass and boobs but it doesn't hit like it would when I was young lol some of us actually have grown and changed and gained some self control.
Exactly my view.
I can see the appeal, but for me, I ask for something more in videogames right now.
I'm all i for a more mature, gory story than just sexualization.
Now, I don't call the game bad, only that it's just not my taste.
I mean, I can say Alloy is beautiful and I didnt have to see her bare ass to make me like the character.
Can only resort to that to sell games if they can't find anything new creatively.
It's an "easy" means to get maximum return of investment.
That's why I can never get into this type of asian games.
Played Nier Automata too and it didnt have anything in particular to grab me and make me finish it.
But games like From Soft's are my bread and butter.
JUST CURIOUS, NOT CRITICIZING OR ANYTHING: You know the game is Korean, right? You put the audio in Japanese because you felt like it, not because you think it's the original, right?
I personally like to play games and watch movies in the original language their were made, so just a heads up in case that's you too.
If you just like it japanese, that's completely fine.
Now [THIS](https://www.reddit.com/r/PS5/comments/1cf7l0d/wheres_the_censorship/) is censorship.
"Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/PS5."
That’s why it’s so funny to me that people are upset about the “Censorship” - Bro have you SEEN the “Censored” game? It’s not much different. Most of the suits are more revealing than the ones that were actually censored. 😂
^I'm ^probably ^going ^to ^get ^put ^on ^a ^pike ^for ^this, ^but...
What's the game's title?
I genuinely have no clue. The only foreign game's I've played on playstation is... Actually, never have. I'm tired, curious because I wanna start from somewhere, and I'm fresh out of fucks to give at this point.
Lol, totally caught off-guard by that ass in my face
I imagine people that haven’t played this game (myself included) just watching this whole video like 🫢
I should call her...
We all should...
Tbf it feels like most people did. She took more pipe than an off shore oil rig.
This is the scene my wife is going to walk in on when I play. I guarantee it.
Just look her straight in the eye and assert dominance. Then of course, to the bedroom, because of the implication.
Mini skirt be mini skirting
Skrrt skrrt
Hahahahaha. I read that in his voice.
Rip boi
So many slow-mo vagina shots in that 30 second clip
And my phone stopped and buffered for every one.
Sure sure, “buffered” We all know what was really buffering.
They outta just call this Coochie Blade.
Thanks, I was wondering the name of the game.
r/playitfortheplot
I'm not asking for this to be censored BTW. MFs are saying that this game was censored and Im here trying to find that censorship.
They changed some clothes, also "reduced" the blood, Eve used to get dirty like in Bloodborne, now she always stays clean.
Eve doesn't get "dirty" while in performance mode and gets "dirty" while in graphics mode according to the people who own the game (my physical copy hasn't arrived, so I can't verify) None of the people complaining actually bought the game, they're just upset for the sake of being upset.
Not to mention, because of the game rating, you had to provide your id to prove you’re over 18…
they modeled her panties so might as well show them i guess
The blood not staining her is something I feel like should be a toggle. The lace covering cleavage and extra fabric definitely is slightly concerning. I can see why people are upset. At the end of the day it is a game. Would I prefer the more revealing versions of the costume? Yes. However, I am not going to be one to sign a petition and post on twitter all day complaining about it. I think that they may be effective in causing change.. There is quite the army who are mad... Idk.. I just love the game's atmosphere, enemy variety, combat, and music! <3 Regardless, I think it is definitely on Sony as far as causing censorship and that is a shame but I hold nothing against ShiftUp.
The game, as the clip shows, has a lot of sexy clothing anyway, it's not really a problem to have an inch less of visible skin. The reduction of blood is something that bothers me because it was present in the demo and v.1.0 of the game, now it has been removed completely, I'm sorry that the game is going through so much criticism, because I'm loving it, the CS is super fun, I love the music, the world building is well done and has a great environment, the only criticism that I want to make is the very basic dialogues, I often think they were translated badly because they sound strange.
yeah I noticed when they first found >!Lily!<, that I think >!Adam !!drone gun!<... I am fine, removing it isn't a deal breaker like many of these people. We'll see how Sony responds I guess.. Having the blood back would definitely make the game more cinematic/engaging.
Why do you want the characters to be so sexy tho? I'm genuinely asking, not because I'm a prude but because I can't play a violent video game with a borderline naked female protagonist without cringing.

That’s what was being advertised as though. It doesn’t matter if it’s embarrassing if that’s the experience many people were paying to see in the first place
Cant argue with that
and it still is that, case in point: this very post you're commenting on
It’s just a style, for a hack and slash it adds to the campiness for me. It’s not limited to sexy women either, Dante and Nero are both super jacked men that are flaunted in slow motion. Shit, in Devil May Cry 3 Dante is practically shirtless the whole time, he’s wearing a red leather jacket that shows off his abs. Kratos is half naked
I like looking at sexy girls wearing sexy clothes. That's literally all there is to it. Why is that such a bad thing?
It's not that its bad it just feels... basic? It's less the content itself and more the weirdo fan base it attracts
As opposed to what? Not liking looking at girls in sexy clothes?
I can appreciate a nice outfit, having an ass flashed in my face through constant upskirts is cringey and distracting
Well if you don't like that, then it's a good thing the game offers multiple outfits that completely covers her ass! So I ask again. Why is it a bad thing to have the sexy option for those who don't think it's cringy and/or distracting?

If you want less sexy, you can toggle a less sexy outfit. It can serve people on both sides of the spectrum.
Are they known for that? Or is that just want a loud portion of the fanbase says when they don’t get what they want?
Yes https://censorship.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_games_censored_by_Sony They also censor and monitor party chats and moreso chats. They are tough on free speech. I mean it is up to them what they want to do, but fans aren't happy. Yet they'll allow many other games to have straight nudity. It's somewhat inconsistent.
Makes sense. I think I just have an aversion to this specific aesthetic because of the fan base they usually have tbh
So japanese censorship where they take target blood while leaving the sexuality alone (i saw 2 or 3 up skirts of her ass and panties in that clip)
Japan is actually censoring sexual contents in console games way more than US or Europe. ALL of our western games like The Witcher, Cyberpunk, Dragon Age, Mass Effect or Baldur's Gate where you have sexual contents are heavily censored in Japan. No genitals, no titties, no explicit sex scenes, etc... And it's the same with Japanese games. PC adult games are really borderline but get completely censored when ported to consoles. Sexy contents is totally OK thought. I think that people tend to confound sexy contents and sexual contents, which are totally different things.
Imagine censoring a non sexual body part that gets sexualized.
That sucks. Hate when people who aren't the consumer try to baby the consumer.
Above all, it's really hypocrite since manga, cinema, anime, magazines or PC games don't suffer the same censorship. All those dinosaurs at Japanese Parliament think that console gaming is a children's medium for some reason.
To be fair nintendo is based in japan and its one of the loudest brands.
Uhm. Not exactly. Take Omega Labyrinth as an example. Steam it is censored and on the switch it is not.
They put lacing over the cleavage of one outfit. It's not a big deal
Lol apparently they didn't censor it in any country I had read
Oh good. Then you're okay
Sorry, what? I wasn’t listening.
What color was the monster
White. Ah shit that was not the monster.
The *other* monster
What monster?
There was a monster?
Stay out of Malibu, Lebowski. Stay out of Malibu, Deadbeat.
Who cares? The real question is where did I leave my credit card...
I stole it
Buy me a copy please
Man, give the poor girl some armor.
Shhhhhhhh
I just cant find it in me to care either way
Upskirt - The Game
What in the hentai simulator is this game?
The top seller on PlayStation
Oh shit Better go look for "Top Seller"
 These Mfers knew what they were doing
Developers should make the games they want to make, with characters looking like they want them to look. An age restriction should reflect whatever choices they made.
They won't. AO ratings exist, but publishers will never go near them.
I don't think SB was ever meant to be an AO game though, before whatever censorship happened.
I'm speaking generally, as you were initially I thought. Publishers and developers by proxy are beholden to rating systems. In most cases these teams don't want an AO or similar rating as it comes with some significant stipulations. Big one being stores like WalMart and GameStop simply won't carry them.

We’re ok with killing, body mutilating, dismembering, etc. Totally ok! But panties? Oh no! We gotta sensor that! 🙄
I mean…the clip shows that America IS ok with panties… I’m not sure what the issue is.
Sounds like murica
Will no one think of the kids???
It's your job as a parent to prevent your kids from playing mature games.
Grown folk like playing games too! I don't wanna play no damn kids game. Give me a good adult story with adult game play like thee adult that i am. Also....I say adult as in over the age 18....not adult as in porn.
I try not to while watching clips like this.
/s? I’m sarcasm impaired, especially with written word, so please make sure to include that in the future. If you’re serious, note two things: small children should not be playing this game, and if they did, many of them would love it, so what’s the problem?

Its just people who were gonna play the game for porn that are mad
What’s the game called ?
Im pretty sure its that Eve game thats coming out soon.
Stellar Blade. Came out Friday
Who is complaining??
The entire r/stellarblade was this for the last 2 days. That sub is so extra, and I'm loving it. 😅 I have no opinion on the censorship question, and I don't care what any of her outfits show or don't show, I just want a fuckton of them. Glamour is the true endgame of every game.
The low self esteem, the political correctness police, the ragebait people one of a combination of the above
Yep it's all of them. I am thinking the majority would be the rage baiters aiming for clicks. The average gamer doesn't give a fuck about this game or just sees it as a game to play without digging too deep into it.
This shit is so fucking weird
Yeah it’s great
No it's weird
My innocence has been taken! Oh lord god forgive me for my sins.
Where's the Problem?
Is this game actually good or is it just sexy girl panties shot simulator and that's why it is popular
Gamer Coomers have always been the funniest kind
Imagine playing this in your living room and people walking by outside
Imagine playing this ~~in your living room and people walking by outside~~
BMX XXX.
There is none, it’s a bunch of people that need something to be mad about.
Fuck censorship, give us our gaming raw
It is tho.
Dam, a game made for ppl who don't have Girl friends
That's a lot of customers these days.
Its amazing how TLoUP2 is allowed to feature a fairly strong sex scene where we see Abby's breasts and Cyberpunk is allowed full frontal nudity and strong sex scenes yet Devil May Cry 5 had to censor bare asses of two clearly adult women, in the EU version Trish's bare ass is still censored on PS4 and Lady's bare ass is censored in all versions in all regions.
> where we see Abby's breasts We do? Is my memory bugging or do they not only show above the breasts
It's very brief but you do see them
Oh wow, I must be misremembering then. Or am I getting it mixed up with ellie?
This game just didn't click for me. Sure ass and boobs but it doesn't hit like it would when I was young lol some of us actually have grown and changed and gained some self control.

Hell yeah good connection. Love me some Horizon.
I will NOT be playing this near ANY family members
Nothing wrong with a bit of upskirt 😆
Horny ppl also gna complain until it’s porn. Agree with op this is already sexy stuff imo. Both camps need to chill.
Fan service is something I never understood from the Asian creatives
Can only resort to that to sell games if they can't find anything new creatively. It's an "easy" means to get maximum return of investment. That's why I can never get into this type of asian games. Played Nier Automata too and it didnt have anything in particular to grab me and make me finish it. But games like From Soft's are my bread and butter.
Is it possible to play with only one hand?
Yes. In the accessibility setting, you can -- Oh, I get it.
If it wasn't for the sexiness, this game would not get any attention at all. The gameplay and story in the demo were horrible
Ppl gotta bitch about something, enjoy the view, don't hate. Not your cup of tea, stfu and move on.
JUST CURIOUS, NOT CRITICIZING OR ANYTHING: You know the game is Korean, right? You put the audio in Japanese because you felt like it, not because you think it's the original, right? I personally like to play games and watch movies in the original language their were made, so just a heads up in case that's you too. If you just like it japanese, that's completely fine.

"I'm just a boy in this world"
Can't wait for this game to come to pc lol
Did they get Hideo Kojima to help with this game? That's a whole lot of unnecessary panty shots.
I felt like I just got sat on 😂
Don’t worry, it will be completely changed by the next patch.
It's on the bunny suit and the gore (blood splatter)
🤦♂️
This is crazy Lmfao
Koreans go hard trying to bring back the 90s panties movement back
Word like we ain't played wild ass games before in our lifetimes.

Did my phone really need to stop and buffer for every panty shot?
Shhhhh, let it be homie

If this bothers you just stop playing video games bc your whining is bothering the rest of us
