*editing post intensifies. Please wait around 5 to 10 minutes before quot-actually, just be wary that I edit my post often.
.......Mostly because minor things like grammar and mis-spellings*

As long as they pollute the airwaves with constant complaints, it never feels like a minority. It's becoming vocal spam nowadays. Heck, I'm beginning to feel similar to the TC just due to the fact that the yelling about censorship has now become "what flavor of the month can we complain about now". It's become so constant, it basically moves from game to game, every month. And with almost every case, they want to trash a whole company over it.
If it isn't, Bravely Default, it's DOA, if it isn't DOA, it's Fire Emblem, if it isn't Fire Emblem, it's Street Fighter V, if it isn't Street Fighter V, it's Overwatch. I feel the moment Overwatch dies down some more, people will just raise another effigy to burn.
The noise never ceases, and it wouldn't be so bad if they didn't invade *every* forum, *every* YouTube post, and *every* thing completely not related to said game save for the publisher. (And sometimes that isn't even the barrier). They bring it up like some people bring up Politics while you're talking about (for example) Chuck E Cheese and the Beach Boys.
What people fail to understand is that they feel that they are protecting the artist *vision*, when they don't realize that the game industry never fully worked that way. Not outside of Indies. Sure, they pick on sexualization (as seems to be the main thing people complain about what might be toned down), but their heads will absolutely explode if they ever realized how many (often more meaningful) artistic changes happen as something they felt would broaden their audience for a better chance at sales. All kinds of subtle alterations happen, and things get dropped in the process. That's life.
I'm all for the artist's vision, but I also am a bit of a realist in certain ways of the business. There are also times when the censorship may be messier than others, and does cause a bit of a change in how a character is perceived in translation. Nothing super drastic, though. However, if it was drastic, you better believe I would voice disappointment, but I at least use more civil methods to talk about it. But what I also see are changes that don't even take anything of substance away from the game, for which people are putting just as much of a stink about. "Everybody. Flood all the Airwaves! Make 100 Youtube videos on it!! Grab your Pitchforks!!!!! I hope they die!!!"

--------------------------------------------------
Planning to replay PSP2 and prove to myself that the chaining mechanic do not slow down the pace of the combat. =/
Planning to replay PSU (ep1 and 2) for story and gameplay, PSZ and PSP2 offline mode Only Also I'm keeping my FC for psz up though the Network Mode is closed.
Should I know what that is?
Someone who doesn't know what being triggered is is my trigger.
They're being sarcastic, but a "trigger" is in reference to something that "triggers" a mental disorder. For example fireworks are a common trigger for soldiers with PTSD.
It kinda turned into a joke when people started trying to use it for anything that made them uncomfortable or angry, but the actual thing is pretty real.
