because the devs just ran their censored words list through google translate instead of paying someone to do proper localization.
Try fingers, but hole
With yourself?
Or someone elses fingers if you are feeling adventurous
:3
Black K***ht, of Dark Souls
Or butter being censored as ****er
Arguably making it much worse
Dark Souls’ implementation is something special. Censors your name based on the language settings you have in place at the time, voice-over dialogue remains in English. So change your system language to either another language you know, or play it a few times so you know what things are, and then put the most offensive shit in as your character name you like.
Great cropping job
but thats a part of the joke
I guess I just don’t get it
It’s the screenshot equivalent of a TV show cutting to the next scene the moment a punchline lands — usually a stronger and more “taboo” punchline that followed up in the dramatic pause after a previous more light-hearted punchline.
It’s what they do on the other social medias, probably because they scan images for words nowadays?
Honestly what made me laugh.
Genshin has China-level censoring, with some really bizarre words like ‘tank’ being filtered.
I wonder why
Hong Kong was also censored, haven’t checked recently tho as it could have been changed. Taiwan also censored
Chat censoring should be mostly on the user side with user controlled blacklists and whitelists, with moderator involvement mostly for circumventing the filters.
Don’t want to see “penis”? Put it on your own blacklist.
Ive been downvoted to hell and back for saying that on FFXIVs reddit back in the day
They provide a literal toggle for you to bleep swear words out, yet you can get in trouble for using “fuck” in a way someone can perceive as insulting (which in some cases means using it at all)
It should be fucking illegal to penalize someone by restricting access to paid content like a video game because someone else refused to use features built into that game
Harassment and bypass? Fair game to get someone in trouble, though
But then you have to see penis while writing penis on the blacklist!
But I do wholeheartedly agree. Censorship should be opt-in, and no one should be bowing to government censorship.
I want to see penis
This game is ESRB teens
“Online interactions not rated by the ESRB”
Damn, someone should go back and tell my teen self that bad words aren’t allowed.
I am a fucking disgrace.
Two best examples were:
-
Total War censoring the username Nasser to N***er
-
Gamefreak banning their own Pokemon (Cofagrigus) from online play unless you renamed it first.
My favorite is GTAO having a language filter thats impossible to turn off. The NPC’s will literally yell fuck you when you drive by them but YOU cant say fuck.
Eden ring censored “Knight” to “K***ht” iirc
-
“It’s the D–k van D–e show! Starring D–k van D–e!”
animal crossing on ds censored town board messages client side so if you edited the word list in the rom to be blank you could use a flash cart, join someone else’s town, put whatever profanity you wanted, and they would see it in their town but wouldnt be able to swear in their own game or anyone else’s.
I was playing The Finals and apparently LMAO gets censored, it made me look like an asshole!
Did the Finals finally get text chat? I remember getting annoyed that I couldn’t yell at my teammates when they played like morons.
I’m just glad I don’t live in Scunthorpe.
Same with penistone
YouTube censoring a video that talks about a controversial video, but not the original video itself.
I just made this account cuase My school account wouldnt work so I now have my own account, thus us vy far the best thing ive seen in a while
I fucking hate censorship -_-
Have they censored the word “butter” yet?
