If a costume shows any skin they painted over it with chrome paint (look up the wedding dress)

There's a subplot of a demonic photographer that got altered somewhat and now all his photos are more tasteful, the character he kidnaps is also no longer in distress and is just sitting in the background bored

Nah it's random. Knocking them down is just what makes it possible to do one.

Is the clerk at Anzu supposed to be Cath from FE6?

Cake Attack posted:

hmm

for those who've beaten the game, is this a pick a party and stick with it game, or is it the kind of game where you get enough out of diversification to make it worth rotating

Since the side stories are tied into characters stage levels, I take it it requires quite a bit of extra grinding if I wanted to see everyone's side stories? Or is there a way to quickly rank up someones stage levels late in the game?

Can I get a version that just fixes the wedding dress to not be appallingly ugly?

Edit: But for real tho, good for them. Isn't it better this way, that everyone can enjoy the game? It might not matter to us, but for the people it matters it seems undeniably like a good thing.

Infinity Gaia posted:

That's the thing though, they aren't even asking for sympathy at this point, they just went and edited the game to their tastes. If they were demanding Nintendo change stuff back, then sure, but I don't feel them developing their own version is worthy of mockery, just let them do their own thing. Besides, you know that you're being a little reductionist, I have some friends (massive weebs) who just hate any form of change from the original. While I believe change can be for the best, who am I to judge if someone disagrees to the point of going into the game and replacing stuff themselves?

I think savage enemies are based on your party level, not the dungeon you are in. I doubled back from the chapter 2 dungeon to the 106 idolsphere and the savage enemies had changed from a trio of lvl 11s to a quartet of lvl 26s.

This actually makes for really easy powerlevelling if you're prepared. At any point in the game go to 106 and activate Touma's skill... I think Estoma? And the only enemy spawns will be occasional savage enemies that will give you a boatload of xp. I felt like I got much better xp gains fighting a few savage enemies than mowing down waves of mooks in the current dungeon. This will probably also help with powerlevelling somebody who had been benched.

This is the dumbest thing I've heard you say jfc.

Not everyone wants to uncensor a game to jerk it (though those people do exist). Maybe some people just find the changes really unnecessary and just want the original game? Like come on dude, I'd probably do it myself if A: I knew how in the first place and B: It let me keep Tsubasa's outfit from Chapter 2.

If people want to remove boob smoke or whatever then let them .

The thing is people can understand the english script- they most likely can't understand the Japanese script. I wouldn't want to import a long JRPG that I couldn't understand to get around censors- but if you told me all I had to do was download a file and that's literally it and I can turn my legal English copy to the Japanese version but I get to keep the script readable then sure why not? What's wrong with giving people a choice in what they want?

It's literally saying that you should default to being happy about literally any change made dude.

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:

E: Actually you do realize all the patch does is put the original Japanese content back in and keeps the English NoA script right (It just changes Aversa's cutscene, the wedding dress, etc)? It kind of sounds like you think it's a entire re-translation or something.

Rexroom posted:

I think most sensible people object to the changes because they remember the horrors committed in the name of localization.

ThisIsACoolGuy posted:

Why was the game edited so heavily in the first place then? Like originally it was "chill all they're doing is giving the characters new outfits instead of just bikini's or whatever". Now it's "They've rewritten entire plots/subplots of the game so it's impossible to toggle a version you want without it being silly."

I love this game

Rexroom posted:

By the way, I read in a review that the bikini Tsubasa in the "uncensored" Japanese version appears as an ad-lib performance during battles.

Ibram Gaunt posted:

I'm upset they didn't translate the battle dialogue but I can't think of any sub only game that does that so Im guessing it has to do with the hassle of injecting subs where there weren't any even in the jp rather than laziness though.

star ocean looks bad at least, so that'll clear up some time

Oxxidation posted:

I'm not sure why this game's designs look ok to me whereas Star Ocean's look like something I'd see crawling up my leg during a bad salvia trip.

Eye/face ratio, maybe.

Oxxidation posted:

So I've got an issue and the Wii U general is closed so I'll ask here - I got this off the eShop and cleared enough space to run it, but the console won't recognize that the biggest file (specifically the Xenosaga HD patch) was deleted, so it's effectively locking me out of being able to download the game.

Where do I go from here? I'll reformat the drive if I have do, I barely ever play on this console anyway.

They probably would be playing the Japanese version except Nintendo are the only ones still doing the backwards, archaic and anti-consumer practice of region locking their hardware.

DrPaper posted:

I don't know why you have such a chip on your shoulder over what people do to their game, to be perfectly honest.

DrPaper posted:

Except historically you are wrong. There have been several ATLUS titles specifically that have been mass-imported due to changes, since the PSP days. Many of these games also have English text built in due to English speakers in the Asian market, primarily in Hong Kong. Doesn't even matter because many games aren't always largely imported from Japan. The Inazuma games have been imported from the EU, and Southpark form the US, and neither of these were done for anime tittys.

There is a reason consumers despise region locking, and why Phil Spencer stepped up and removed it from the Xbox One.

DrPaper posted:

And this is pretty reasonable. I personally don't feel it's just anime titties that are part of the problem in Tokyo Mirage Sessions subpar localization. Out of sync, overlapping and orphaned audio dialogue, DLC content not coming over -

DrPaper posted:

I've had to wait 7 months to play this game on my Wii U due to region locking. Waiting for them to localize it. 6 months for Japanese only audio, dialogue inconsistencies between the text and audio, and less content, when if this were coming out for my PS4 or Xbox One I could have already played it.

On top of that it's also going to objectively have less content, that I can't play because I can't import #FE and play it on my Wii U.

It's not the end of the world, but dismissing it as just being people who want to jerk off to anime titties is retarded, because jerking off to anime titties isn't some limited venue that I can only get from Wii U games.

So, I've beaten chapter 2, and it's telling me I can do Kiria's 2nd side quest when she stage levels up. But She's already rank 7. Am I really supposed to be bringing that out, or is it a case where there just isn't a story gate in the way, but it's supposed to be done in chapter 3? Cause I spent a long time killing dudes in the 2nd dungeon, and emptied her mana bar twice with her cheapest spells and no rank up. So like 90 some casts, and factoring in sessions, thats also 90-100 kills. At least it's letting other Cain catch up on weapon skills, but I'm thinking they don't want me to have that rank yet, but didn't gate it.

So uhh I finally got to class change and the game told me I had 3 new Carnage Fusions available but they don't seem to be there? Do they only show up when I get out of intermission or what?

Infinity Gaia posted:

I see. By the way, I did my first one pretty casually but now I'm wondering, how many master orbs are there in the game? I assume there's at least enough to class change each character, but maybe not to get everyone both classes? Of course, I'd rather hope there were precisely 14 orbs in the game (It's pretty drat obvious HETEROCHROMIA LONE WOLF will join eventually) but you never know with this stuff.

Ibram Gaunt posted:

This is probably more a personal problem than anything but I dislike feeling like I constantly have to run out of a dungeon to get my new radiant skills/make new weapons ASAP. Makes it take a long time to get through dungeons.
