Mr Popo in the wake of Akira Toriyama’s passing, he was not based off a black man. Mr Popo is based off the “Mahkala” which is a Hindu deity over time and creation.. which makes sense.. hence the “Hyperbolic time chamber”
Nobody watches the original Dragon Ball. In it many different black characters are depicted with big lips but hilariously nobody seems to care about that. Truth is Toriyama is one of a few Japanese manga artists to depict many black characters as if they're just naturally a part of the population. But people would get hung up on the lips thing even though it's a cartoon where everyone is a goofy charicature.
Oh man I love how companies like Capcom and Square Enix remake/remaster games but they censor the shit out of them for people who don't even buy their fucking games.
I'm a female 80s millennial who first started playing games on the NES. My ABSOLUTE favorite character was Samus. I loved that you couldn't tell she was a woman just playing through the game. But I also really loved all the other beautiful, and usually scantily clad, female characters from other games. There was variety. It was great seeing all the different styles from game to game. As a little girl I could imagine being badass like Samus, or beautiful like Rosa, or determined like Terra. Hell, even as a teenager I loved games like DOA: Xtreme Beach Volleyball. I hate the uglification of female characters. This oppressive modesty really is no better than what the soccer moms were doing. Why is it bad to be a beautiful women? Why do we have to cover these characters up as if bodies are something to be ashamed of? It really pisses me off.
This is exactly how I feel. What’s wrong with beautiful women? Why can’t women wear what they want to wear? Stop trying to fix things that aren’t broken.
They believe that attractive female characters exist solely for the sexual gratification of men, so they want to eradicate that, thinking that doing so would make gaming safer for women. …Well, that’s just one factor. There are also bitter people who feel intimidated by those more attractive than them, and thus want to get rid of attractive characters in hopes of bringing standards down to their level. Also, there’s another group of people who want a character that they identify with, because they literally cannot put themselves in the shoes of a character that isn’t like them.

Censorship is vegetarians banning steak on the excuse that babies can't chew it and could choke on it. That's the better analogy I think, we should never take their so-called good intentions at face value or in good faith.

There kinda is there's a sort of general secular war on religion more broadly but especially christianity because the milatant secularists predominantly come from majority christian nations and thus have a particular bone to pick with it, stanism because it is not an actual faith that believes in Lucifer as a sort of righteous rebel like in some Gnostic sects or more recognizably like he's portrayed in most SMT games but rather it's just a social club to troll christianity, so because it's not an actual faith and there's a shared hateboner towards christianity between the two more stanic esque imagery gets a pass by the secularists if not celebrated as allies.
It's not the same group that censored in the 90's and early 2000's. It's a new group that behaves exactly the same but has different beliefs and values.
I'd argue it IS the same group (Politicians). They didn't win in the 90s (by launching a frontal assault), so they regrouped, changed tactics (infiltrate academia first to brainwash kids who are susceptible to brainrot) and relaunched their assault. And now have useful little pawns in place to do their bidding.
Yep. No one ever wants the pendulum to stop at the balance point in the middle. Just two opposing bat-crap crazy opposites shoving that pendulum as far toward the other extreme as possible. *smdh*
One thing that sort of snapped for me... They used to try and ruin the things we like from the outside... These days, they try and ruin it from the inside, under the guise of making it better. And if we call it out for what it is, we are the ones that are the problem.
You should do a update on this. The creators of the franchise came out in a video interview saying they were forced to censor and they hate it and they put the blame 100% on America.
5:41 I agree with what Asmongold said when he was watching it: It's not being turned into a kids game, it's being turned into a game for 35 year old people that behave and think like kids.
Fun fact...these aren't the first times body type a and b and the warrior appearance has been censored. The body type a and b was added to DQ10 and the warrior was first censored in Dragon Quest Monsters, a Japanese exclusive game so its no wonder we never knew about it.
Heya, tbh... I am a diehard old school fan of 1 2 3. I played a few others after but the series kinda lost it's charm for me. I checked a few out but it's been hit or miss. The remake peaked my interest and that is what triggered me making this video.
@@ScouterVee Oh trust me I get you all too well. I'm a big fan of paper mario and up until the remake, I was feeling ignored by Nintendo in their efforts to make a fun new game. When I heard the remake was coming, I was beyond ecstatic. TTYD is one of my favorite games from my childhood and getting to see it on modern hardware was a dream come true...until I found out about Vivian. If you didn't know, there were 6 separate translations of TTYD: Japanese, English, French, Spanish, German and Italian. Japanese is clearly the original translation, and, in that translation, Vivian is labeled as an "otokonoko" or more commonly known today as a femboy. The French and Spanish versions did the same while the English and German changed him to female...the Italian one stuck out like a sore thumb. It's the only translation that recognizes Vivian as a trans character...in 2004, long before this mess became common knowledge. This is the translation the localization team decided to use, reconning Vivian as trans. I was in so much pain as now I can't enjoy a game from my childhood all over again and it hurts even more after watching a playthrough of the game and seeing all the fanservice they included like the revamped soundtrack, the gameplay authenticity, and the improved ease of use for backtracking. I'm glad emulation exists because I can go back and enjoy all my old games without ever having to pay these leeches my hard-earned money.
@@ogre589Even worse that Super Mario wiki censors Vivian's page as whole (including Super Mario manga one as they pretend this one don't exist or they said it's “non-canon”) as they think he's/their is trans all because of the infamous Italian translation that he's/they are “trans”.
Censoring Akira Toriyama's work is extremely disrespectful. I was literally about to buy DQ - until I saw all of this. I will not support companies that do this shit.
@@POTATOEMPN Sorry you feel so bitter but your kind being so fragile is no excuse for censoring games. Grow up, you are starting to sound like old "THINK OF THE CHILDREN!" christians... But we all know it's not the kids who are complaining and we DEFINITELY know it's not the parents since the VAST MAJORITY of you aren't married... It's the fragile TOURISTS that cry over things they don't really understand. YOU are not a real fan and YOU are not needed 💅
Square Enix is wild for this one. They've been working alongside Disney too long, and now Disney's general design philosophy is spreading into Square's work lol.
The trident has been used for over a decade and is the actual symbol of their monotheistic religion where they worship the goddess. Its not trying to be edgy, its just their own proper in universe symbolism.
I really enjoyed how your voice seemed to start higher and more gentle, almost like lampooning a Japanese businessman in the context of the video content, and then you steadily descended into more confidence and a deeper voice. If that was intentional, your video is even better. If it wasn't, then you're a natural. Oh, and the body massage machine reference was highly, highly appreciated!
This whole video was designed to talk about real issues in gaming while making people laugh about it. I have not been making videos for too long, but I try to smile at the funny parts while recording and make an angry face when upset. It was put together like a roller coaster to talk about serious issues but break up the negativity with jokes (like the up skirt shot). The first part of the video was intended to remind us of a time when games were simple. (hope this answered your question) This was about 30-40 hours of editing and maybe a full day writing a script.
This is why I just like older games in general because their lack of sense of censorship gives them a lot of personality censoring ignores the artist original vision
Censorship having no gameplay effect is especially the problem as it is wasting resources to make changes that never matter to the first place. Censorship is failing to separate fantasy from reality, ruining the fun in escapism.
People here just don't realize how massive DQ3 is in Japan. If you're in your 30s or 40s its the RPG that EVERYONE knows over there, even more than like FF7. It's so sad dude. And yes it's just as censored in the Japanese version and the Japanese players are pissed too. As always, if you want to play the actual game I gotta recommend the Super Famicom version with the English translation patch. The SFC version is it itself also remake and the most respected and played version of the game. Nothing has been censored yet and the fan translation is excellent.
I live here man. It is HUGE. SE spit in the face of not only Toriyama-san. but fans of the world. Those characters were even in the anime. Unforgivable! Thanks for the comment and knowing wtf is up
I immediately subbed after seeing your video on asmongold channel. As a life long Toriyama fan I am enamored by your video. Not only do you put great editing skills on display, but you do so in a style that 100% fits with Toriyama's style of humor. Love your work. You deserve so much more views that you have. I predict you will be getting that 100K subs within a year.
@@ScouterVee That love shines in your work. I grew up with the French dubs in the 80's and 90's. I learnt French from it. Toriyama has such a love for life in his work. Such a base goodness. But he still has humor with that that is as innocent and infectious as a child's laughter. His sexual humor is a vital part of this. It shares the same innocence and it is actually a good guide for people how to incorporate their sexuality in daily life. I studied psycho-analysis. His art is a great example of sublimation where you heal by giving your desires place in art. I've become a big fan of you just today. I look forward to seeing where you will go!
Thank you! One thing I wanted to add to the video regarding the bunny girl, (asobinin) I don't know the English name. The reason that the clown is an old guy is because he is a fool that wastes his money chasing a young women who serrves him drinks. It's a Japanese culture thing that was lost in translation
1:45 There are teams in the corporate world whose entire job is to find problems to complain about. Worthless, pointless, annoying, professional Karens.
It is omg! I’m also very picky on things too. I upscale images and sometimes spend way too much time on them. Im actually not against showing my face though, I just LOVE editing.
Bro, your edits are fantastic. They are entertaining but not distracting from your main points. Please continue what your doing, I will gladly watch your future videos.
Why would a million dollar game cater to that one or ten players who found something "discomforting"? If they started blaming the consumer. We all know whos at fault then.
I wanna recommend to anyone thinking of sticking with playing the Super Famicom version through an emulator, that you look up and apply the MSU1 patch to the game to allow for CD quality audio. The PCM pack available for it is the Symphonic Suite soundtrack, which is what has been confirmed to be the music they're using in the remake.
Came from Assmon. I wish I had found your video naturally, but this is just as good. I'm here to give you another view, like and sub. You earned it with that video. Keep up the amazing content my dude!
imma be real - I very much enjoyed listening to Asmongold react to this video and thought it was well done. When Asmon brought up the viewership and sub count, I thought he was memeing or something because the quality is insane. I really hope you put more content out there, as you have what it takes to do well on RUclips.
I appreciate that! I don't make any money off this yet, I just want to share my thoughts and it paid of hearing everybody enjoy the video. I will never forget seeing his reaction.
As the worlds biggest Dragon Warrior/Quest fan I know all about the series and these changes are completely against the visions of Akira Toriyama and Yuji Hori. Any true fan needs to boycott this series and not play anymore until they bring the skimpy outfits back.
So happy asmo shared your video. Great stuff! The editing alone is deserving of a bigger channel, hope this helps you see massive intake for your videos man!
Yeah, I am not really much a long talker in real life tbh... I don't want to add anything just to fill in time. I am glad you enjoyed it! I have a new video coming out soon (tm)
1:26 this is quite possibly the quintessential quote to this entire problem in the west - it is impossible to make entertainment that offends no one, as some people will be uncomfortable at anything, and some uncomfortable at the absence of anything. You must make a choice on who to make uncomfortable, and ideologues (left and right) simply want to control this. And currently, it is the left that is in Power in the entertainment sphere. They *tried* to make their own IPs with Concord and Dustborn, yet even with government subsidies they failed massively. I hope that Japan quickly sees through all this BS.
Costs 67 dollars plus 4 dollars for shipping in Mexico. Does Square Enix even love Mexicans? I doubt it. This Mexican will play Korean mmorpgs instead. No body type whatever, no censorship, none of that.
Dude, I hardly comment but damn was this great! Your editing and the way you bring up good points instead of repeating the same ones is awesome. My only wish is that it was longer haha. Please keep making DragonQuest content because this was awesome. Also, who does your artwork?
Everything is done by me including the thumbnail etc. I can't draw well though so I modify stuff using MS paint/Canva/Gimp. I will be doing a lot of gaming topics here, I think the best way to save gaming and talk about sensitive topics is through laughter. I am shocked how much this video has blown up. Thanks for the nice comment.
I don't even plan on playing these games, just randomly decided see this video LOL. I'm absolutely sick and tired of all censorship however. Toriyama's efforts will always be better than modern day trash.

They didn't win in the 90s (by launching a frontal assault), so they regrouped, changed tactics (infiltrate academia first to brainwash kids who are susceptible to brainrot) and relaunched their assault. And now have useful little pawns in place to do their bidding.
But still just as idiotic
Yep. No one ever wants the pendulum to stop at the balance point in the middle. Just two opposing bat-crap crazy opposites shoving that pendulum as far toward the other extreme as possible. *smdh*
Asmonbald approved of this video, you made it! 👴
Get that Asmon bump bro!
One thing that sort of snapped for me...
They used to try and ruin the things we like from the outside...
These days, they try and ruin it from the inside, under the guise of making it better.
And if we call it out for what it is, we are the ones that are the problem.
“It’s like buildings that skip the 13th floor” based af
You should do a update on this. The creators of the franchise came out in a video interview saying they were forced to censor and they hate it and they put the blame 100% on America.
Broh this video should have more views, SPREAD THE WORD GAMERS
5:41 I agree with what Asmongold said when he was watching it: It's not being turned into a kids game, it's being turned into a game for 35 year old people that behave and think like kids.
Me too, watching his reaction I thought the same thing.
cry for 2d pixels of skin is also a kids thing.
@@lostsektor ....... what?
Where's my fanservice🤯
Mods :/
🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🥴
I agree
@@ScouterVee Even Nexus mods censors mods now. look what they did to spiderman. they banned some mods as it didnt fit their narrative
Gooners@@ScouterVee
Fun fact...these aren't the first times body type a and b and the warrior appearance has been censored. The body type a and b was added to DQ10 and the warrior was first censored in Dragon Quest Monsters, a Japanese exclusive game so its no wonder we never knew about it.
Heya, tbh... I am a diehard old school fan of 1 2 3. I played a few others after but the series kinda lost it's charm for me. I checked a few out but it's been hit or miss. The remake peaked my interest and that is what triggered me making this video.
@@ScouterVee Oh trust me I get you all too well. I'm a big fan of paper mario and up until the remake, I was feeling ignored by Nintendo in their efforts to make a fun new game. When I heard the remake was coming, I was beyond ecstatic. TTYD is one of my favorite games from my childhood and getting to see it on modern hardware was a dream come true...until I found out about Vivian.
If you didn't know, there were 6 separate translations of TTYD: Japanese, English, French, Spanish, German and Italian. Japanese is clearly the original translation, and, in that translation, Vivian is labeled as an "otokonoko" or more commonly known today as a femboy. The French and Spanish versions did the same while the English and German changed him to female...the Italian one stuck out like a sore thumb. It's the only translation that recognizes Vivian as a trans character...in 2004, long before this mess became common knowledge. This is the translation the localization team decided to use, reconning Vivian as trans.
I was in so much pain as now I can't enjoy a game from my childhood all over again and it hurts even more after watching a playthrough of the game and seeing all the fanservice they included like the revamped soundtrack, the gameplay authenticity, and the improved ease of use for backtracking. I'm glad emulation exists because I can go back and enjoy all my old games without ever having to pay these leeches my hard-earned money.
@@ogre589Even worse that Super Mario wiki censors Vivian's page as whole (including Super Mario manga one as they pretend this one don't exist or they said it's “non-canon”) as they think he's/their is trans all because of the infamous Italian translation that he's/they are “trans”.
Jesus, this is quite an underrated channel. Video was entertaining as hell. Keep up the good work, ScouterVee, your channel is bound to grow a lot!
Baldy saw the video SCATTER he's here
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Censoring Akira Toriyama's work is extremely disrespectful.
I was literally about to buy DQ - until I saw all of this. I will not support companies that do this shit.
How does this video only have 5k views? It's awesome.
12k now..
@@POTATOEMPN Everything you said is provably untrue.
Guys, don't listen to these woke, hive-mind roaches.
@@POTATOEMPN Sorry you feel so bitter but your kind being so fragile is no excuse for censoring games. Grow up, you are starting to sound like old "THINK OF THE CHILDREN!" christians... But we all know it's not the kids who are complaining and we DEFINITELY know it's not the parents since the VAST MAJORITY of you aren't married...
It's the fragile TOURISTS that cry over things they don't really understand. YOU are not a real fan and YOU are not needed 💅
Replacing crosses with pitchforks really shows who these people worship.
Square Enix is wild for this one. They've been working alongside Disney too long, and now Disney's general design philosophy is spreading into Square's work lol.
Love how Asmon is like the Midas touch for small but good creators, However hes also the kiss of death for bad ones.
The bald man sends you his regards
Changing the cross to a pitchfork seems deliberate, like a teenager trying to be an edgy
The trident was been around in DQ for a long time now.
It was that way since Dragon Quest VIII. Very few teenagers were even alive back then.
It is also similar to the Moloch symbol. Moloch is well regarded by the Talmudic peoples. Also, Ukraine's symbol.
@@dansmith1661 That's cool and I approve of support to Ukraine, but the change to trident was before 2014, so I doubt that was their intention.
The trident has been used for over a decade and is the actual symbol of their monotheistic religion where they worship the goddess. Its not trying to be edgy, its just their own proper in universe symbolism.
They've been censoring these games for decades. It's not that much different now.
Asmon gang unite!
Like a pest WE spreadddd
@@1EpicMusic Yeh
ROACH GANG. ASSEMBLE !
I will be severely disappointed if this channel doesn't hit 15K subs in the next three days.
any game that is censored or caters and craters to a very small minority, it not worth your time, or your money.
the worst thing you can say to someone is "I hope your hobby goes mainstream"
I wish gaming never became mainstream
good video man i wish they would leave peoples original vision alone and respect it
My man fighting the good fight. Do not condone the uglification of games or unnecessary censorship under any circumstance.
their excuse of "E rated games sell more" is bullshit. let it be T and keep it uncensored the devs are just as much at fault
I really enjoyed how your voice seemed to start higher and more gentle, almost like lampooning a Japanese businessman in the context of the video content, and then you steadily descended into more confidence and a deeper voice. If that was intentional, your video is even better. If it wasn't, then you're a natural.
Oh, and the body massage machine reference was highly, highly appreciated!
This whole video was designed to talk about real issues in gaming while making people laugh about it. I have not been making videos for too long, but I try to smile at the funny parts while recording and make an angry face when upset. It was put together like a roller coaster to talk about serious issues but break up the negativity with jokes (like the up skirt shot). The first part of the video was intended to remind us of a time when games were simple. (hope this answered your question) This was about 30-40 hours of editing and maybe a full day writing a script.
Good work on this one. Thx for putting attention to this issue. WE MUST FIGHT CENSORSHIP BY ANY MEANS as those people play super dirty too.
Ah yes. The myth of the "modern audience".
love the editing style man! keep it up!
Thanks! I spent a ton of time on this and it was only a little bit over 6 mins. To see Asmon react to it blew my mind!
This is why I just like older games in general because their lack of sense of censorship gives them a lot of personality censoring ignores the artist original vision
The only way to stop this is to actively boycott any game or compagny that works with sweet baby inc. It is the only language they understand.
Censorship having no gameplay effect is especially the problem as it is wasting resources to make changes that never matter to the first place. Censorship is failing to separate fantasy from reality, ruining the fun in escapism.
Nailed it!
People here just don't realize how massive DQ3 is in Japan. If you're in your 30s or 40s its the RPG that EVERYONE knows over there, even more than like FF7. It's so sad dude. And yes it's just as censored in the Japanese version and the Japanese players are pissed too.
As always, if you want to play the actual game I gotta recommend the Super Famicom version with the English translation patch. The SFC version is it itself also remake and the most respected and played version of the game. Nothing has been censored yet and the fan translation is excellent.
I live here man. It is HUGE. SE spit in the face of not only Toriyama-san. but fans of the world. Those characters were even in the anime. Unforgivable! Thanks for the comment and knowing wtf is up
Asmongold giving you the gift bro
Christmas came early T_T

The Emperor himself Asmongold approved your video! 👍
can't believe it. I put so much work into that video and it was worth it. I started doubting myself recently. This meant a lot.
@@ScouterVee Well deserved, it was a good video!
@@ScouterVee With your editing talent there is no need to.
@@ScouterVee never doubt yourself, you're pretty good at editing and you'll most definitely grow in time.
The emperor?
Sheesh don’t fall off that meat bud you’re riding it furiously
I immediately subbed after seeing your video on asmongold channel.
As a life long Toriyama fan I am enamored by your video. Not only do you put great editing skills on display, but you do so in a style that 100% fits with Toriyama's style of humor. Love your work.
You deserve so much more views that you have. I predict you will be getting that 100K subs within a year.
There is more I wanted to say... That dude saved my life. I speak Japanese because of him no joke. I cried at work in Japan when the news came out.
@@ScouterVee That love shines in your work. I grew up with the French dubs in the 80's and 90's. I learnt French from it.
Toriyama has such a love for life in his work. Such a base goodness. But he still has humor with that that is as innocent and infectious as a child's laughter.
His sexual humor is a vital part of this. It shares the same innocence and it is actually a good guide for people how to incorporate their sexuality in daily life.
I studied psycho-analysis. His art is a great example of sublimation where you heal by giving your desires place in art.
I've become a big fan of you just today. I look forward to seeing where you will go!
Thank you!
One thing I wanted to add to the video regarding the bunny girl, (asobinin) I don't know the English name. The reason that the clown is an old guy is because he is a fool that wastes his money chasing a young women who serrves him drinks.
It's a Japanese culture thing that was lost in translation
1:45 There are teams in the corporate world whose entire job is to find problems to complain about. Worthless, pointless, annoying, professional Karens.

I never thought I was going to say this but: videogames becoming mainstream is literally ruining videogames, this is absurd
Man i see you've really found your voice now. Your content is great man, keep it up
I like how you put your character's face on everything, hahaha! Looks time consuming, but adds a lot to the video.
It is omg! I’m also very picky on things too. I upscale images and sometimes spend way too much time on them. Im actually not against showing my face though, I just LOVE editing.
What if you are the cause of my discomfort, SE Ethics Team?
asmon sent me
That's bad I don't want him to smell you
ScouterVee, what's the scouter say about the censorship levels?!
These modern audience bastardizations can rot in a landfill
Amazing video you got that asmon react
Your viewcount just became 50% more bald.
In Bald we trust.
Bro, your edits are fantastic. They are entertaining but not distracting from your main points. Please continue what your doing, I will gladly watch your future videos.
Why would a million dollar game cater to that one or ten players who found something "discomforting"?
If they started blaming the consumer. We all know whos at fault then.
Theyre not catering to certain players.
Theyre self-censoring to get DEI credits to offset their lost money from failures.
It's great to see advocating for preserving the original vision of the game creators. Amazing video.
if they don't like this game, then they should make their own, play it by themselves privately and never publish it.
Modern Audiences can get out.
I'm not buying any Square Enix games now. Make all the "AAA" companies crash.
I’m sure Jacksepticeye would love to hang out with those 90’s moms
Piracy looking better and better every year
Japan has fallen
Time for Korean games
Raid incoming
It is body type A or B, but when you are playing the game and talk to the NPCs they refer to you as either he or she.
Reminds of the Elden Ring thing. "If type B is a girl why cant you remove the top?"
I wanna recommend to anyone thinking of sticking with playing the Super Famicom version through an emulator, that you look up and apply the MSU1 patch to the game to allow for CD quality audio. The PCM pack available for it is the Symphonic Suite soundtrack, which is what has been confirmed to be the music they're using in the remake.
Came from Assmon. I wish I had found your video naturally, but this is just as good. I'm here to give you another view, like and sub. You earned it with that video. Keep up the amazing content my dude!
Would pay for uncensored version but ok DLC or hope on steam someone makes a mod...
Can't wait to see this remake fail and Square Enix to cut their ties with Western DEI companies since they offer no value to their brand.
imma be real - I very much enjoyed listening to Asmongold react to this video and thought it was well done. When Asmon brought up the viewership and sub count, I thought he was memeing or something because the quality is insane. I really hope you put more content out there, as you have what it takes to do well on RUclips.
I appreciate that! I don't make any money off this yet, I just want to share my thoughts and it paid of hearing everybody enjoy the video. I will never forget seeing his reaction.
Great video dude! This censorship to appease 47 people is ridiculous!
Your video is funny and you put alot of effort into it, Im glad asmon found you.
As the worlds biggest Dragon Warrior/Quest fan I know all about the series and these changes are completely against the visions of Akira Toriyama and Yuji Hori. Any true fan needs to boycott this series and not play anymore until they bring the skimpy outfits back.
Toriyama published his own 'censored' designs in plenty of DQ games from 10 years ago. Shouldnt you know this?
Im so tired of Square screwing everyone over.
😂 keep the random dragonball persona...keep it up i just know this channel is going to blow up before you know it 🎉
So happy asmo shared your video. Great stuff!
The editing alone is deserving of a bigger channel, hope this helps you see massive intake for your videos man!
I love how to the point and concise this content is. It’s not overstretched career RUclipsr stuff that wastes your time.
Yeah, I am not really much a long talker in real life tbh... I don't want to add anything just to fill in time.
I am glad you enjoyed it! I have a new video coming out soon (tm)
Its not your discomfort, but their discomfort lmao
1:26 this is quite possibly the quintessential quote to this entire problem in the west - it is impossible to make entertainment that offends no one, as some people will be uncomfortable at anything, and some uncomfortable at the absence of anything. You must make a choice on who to make uncomfortable, and ideologues (left and right) simply want to control this. And currently, it is the left that is in Power in the entertainment sphere. They *tried* to make their own IPs with Concord and Dustborn, yet even with government subsidies they failed massively. I hope that Japan quickly sees through all this BS.
Costs 67 dollars plus 4 dollars for shipping in Mexico. Does Square Enix even love Mexicans? I doubt it.
This Mexican will play Korean mmorpgs instead. No body type whatever, no censorship, none of that.
Rise up!
Dude, I hardly comment but damn was this great! Your editing and the way you bring up good points instead of repeating the same ones is awesome. My only wish is that it was longer haha. Please keep making DragonQuest content because this was awesome. Also, who does your artwork?
Everything is done by me including the thumbnail etc. I can't draw well though so I modify stuff using MS paint/Canva/Gimp. I will be doing a lot of gaming topics here, I think the best way to save gaming and talk about sensitive topics is through laughter. I am shocked how much this video has blown up. Thanks for the nice comment.
Heaven forbid you feel thrilled, disturbed, shocked or awed while playing games...
don't question, just consume.
I don't even plan on playing these games, just randomly decided see this video LOL. I'm absolutely sick and tired of all censorship however. Toriyama's efforts will always be better than modern day trash.
