I imagine Nintendo is the one who asked the sexy outfits out. Can't blame them, they're completely unnecessary for a horror game like this. Like if the girl was an adult I could understand being a little miffed, but for localization's sake, not sexualizing a 15 (? I think) year old is a PRETTY GOOD IDEA. |

Yeah, I understand Nintendo worrying about it not selling well enough to warrant discs. Just sucks the consumer has to pick up the tab a buy an external HDD to be able to play it. And yeah exactly! They were unlockable. You'd have to play through at least once to get them- probably more knowing how these games work. |

Yeaaaaaaaah, can't say I blame them for that. That's just going to rub people the wrong way... Most of the time the protags in FF are underaged. Because, you know... Japan tend to favor them more than late twenties to middle age. Not judging, just... an observation I've noticed. |

The age of consent is 13 in Japan Chibi so by their standards characters like that are legal,it's only here in Murica that it's jailbait |

I've never quite understood why Japan likes protagonists QUITE so young. Like, if it's to attract a younger audience, I get it... but then why go and put the girls in skimpy outfits? Sure it tittilates the teenage boys which is "Fine" I guess, but then you get older men drooling over teenage girls too and aaaaagh it's just a big ol' mess. I for one welcome any Japanese game that doesn't have the whole damn main cast be aged 10-18. Get some adults in there. Preferably badass grannies as a bonus, seeing as how rare they are. |

I like having a mixed bag of ages myself. Like, the young protags can offer some interesting insight in a scenario, but then there are the older, more experience and perhaps jaded protags that could even stuff out and open the door to all sorts of possibilities. And yes, more grannies. |

Yeah, nationally it's 13 in Japan. But that comes with some caveats. The expectation is that it just meants 13 year olds can do other 13 year olds. It's not meant to make it okay for a 30+ year old businessman to do the nasty with a schoolgirl. Also, the overwhelming majority of provinces put age of consent at 18, apparently. This shows that on the local level many Japanese people see 18 as adulthood. So it's... really weird Japanese media sorta infantilizes women, yet also expects them to be sexualized at young ages. "Really weird" being a generous term. Like if at least the characters acted like adults it wouldn't be creepy but in most cases they act like schoolchildren. Which is just... ???? Ew??? Maybe I'm culturally insensitive, I dunno. But a lot of my Japanese friends seem to agree it's gross so it's probably just that conservatives don't wanna touch laws and the anime/video game business knows catering to perverts sells, unfortunately. That would be cool. I like a mix too. I can understand some kids, but better give them some grown ups for guidance as well. I don't even mind if the main character is young, but like, it's moreso when they're all greenhorns that I kinda go "ehhhh". I also tend to connect with older characters more often, even since I was a kid myself. MORE GRANNIES KICKING ASS 2K15 Edited by Uesugi Kenshin, Tue Oct 20, 2015 7:14 pm.

Yeah, it really says something when a game has an alternate outfit for an adult female character that's suppose to be sexualized, and it's... a schoolgirl uniform. ... Can't remember what game did that but I was like 'Oh look at the time, it's NOPE O'CLOCK' and jettisoned myself out of that topic so fast. |

Just found out that not only were the costumes removed... They were replaced with the Zero Suit and Hyrule Warriors Zelda costumes... So they get the same amount of content and are literally just whining about not being able to jizz in real time to the protag in a bikini. Even though one of the replacement costumes is the ZERO SUIT. Goddammit. |

Oddly enough, I'm reminded of the game Nier and the difference between the original Japanese and the Localization. The original Japanese version had a young male protag, you know, the generic pretty boy, and he had a kind of almost incestuous relationship with his sister (you know, that). WELL, for the Western release, they changed him into a muscular, grizzled man in his 30's or 40's (you know, the generic BEEFY man that Japan thinks the West favored), and suddenly the incest brother-sister romance turns into a father-daughter pedo-incest. ... Yeah, that was the tamest thing about that game, from what I'm told. Honestly, I can't handle the crazy that company does XD. |

Ah yes Nier. I'm told it's an excellent game. Seen clips of it, but yes, it seems very unapologetically "out there". |

I like how the main girl character in that game swears like a sailor and doesn't sit around doing nothing. She's basically wearing a nightie with slits but eh. Hun, I'm sorry, but most American gamers seem to prefer hunks to prettyboys. See: every male protag in an American game ever. Edited by Uesugi Kenshin, Tue Oct 20, 2015 7:28 pm.
