Re: Huge fandom annoyances

[(Anonymous)]

I'm playing an early game from an indie developer I like, and it's fun, but all the swearing is censored, and some of the main characters swear a LOT. Even words like hell are censored. I have no idea why they made that decision for a game that runs on dark humor, but it's so jarring. Their later games are much more lighthearted and don't censor swearing.

FF7 Cid cureses with %$#$^&. Maybe developers copied this.

The censored swearing in this game is written like f**k and h**l, so they're not copying that style.

It's most likely a rating adjustment? Unless it's rated R or M, the censorship might have been the best way the creators thought they could do without delaying the game extensively and still maintain a PG/more generalized rating, especially with a dark humour plot going on?
That would annoy me as well though, mostly because I find that pretty much all excessive swearing comes off as childish or hurtful to the overall writing. Even censored, if every other word has @/$&*# or whatever, that'd just be both distracting and seem like the writers had no clue at all.

It could have something to do with the website they're selling the game on, I guess. The devs are their own publisher and it doesn't need to have a rating other than "not 18+" since it's not for any official gaming system, so it's not an issue with other parties there.
