YouTube censoring a video that talks about a controversial video, but not the original video itself.
“It’s the D–k van D–e show! Starring D–k van D–e!”
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.
Eden ring censored “Knight” to “K***ht” iirc
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.
Dark souls censoring knight with k***ht
Elden Ring censors the word finger
How about “finga”?
-
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’m just glad I don’t live in Scunthorpe.
Same with penistone
Have they censored the word “butter” yet?
I fucking hate censorship -_-
Genshin has China-level censoring, with some really bizarre words like ‘tank’ being filtered.
Hong Kong was also censored, haven’t checked recently tho as it could have been changed. Taiwan also censored
Fuck China
I wonder why
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.
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.
I want to see penis
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.
True, could be a default list that you remove them from. What a s*** storm. *long click and select unsensor once, unsensor all, or review blacklist.
That way if people want to be sheltered they can never have to see it, and I can unblacklis> t them all at once, and the people afraid of the term moist can make sure they protect themselves via their list
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.
Recent changes in GTA Online moderation now censor words like “meth” and “cocaine” in chat…
…in a game where large portions of the gameplay are focused around selling meth and cocaine.
Is that game even any fun anymore? I stopped playing after the first year or so.
From what I’ve seen the real fun is on the private FiveM servers
If you’re a fan of shenanigans, have some friends to play with, and know how to avoid the script kiddies, it can be quite fun.
I stopped playing too, it would be more fun if it wasn’t as grindy.
So Mike Tyson can’t say that stuff is messed up… Shame
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
Black K***ht, of Dark Souls
Or butter being censored as ****er
I can’t believe it’s not ass.
Arguably making it much worse
It is just worse, and I don’t know how someone could argue it isn’t.
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.
I remember when playing roblox a couple years ago, they would censor almost every single romanian word and every single number
Its not even that romanian roblox players are rare, every time i managed to write something in romanian, someone would respond in romanian
Romanians are such Chads
I think you confused the countries. Chad and Romania have really similar flags so its understandable
That was the joke :(
because the devs just ran their censored words list through google translate instead of paying someone to do proper localization.
Try fingers, but hole
:3
With yourself?
Or someone elses fingers if you are feeling adventurous
