because the devs just ran their censored words list through google translate instead of paying someone to do proper localization.
Try fingers, but hole
With yourself?
Or someone elses fingers if you are feeling adventurous
I remember ye-olden days…
“Nice s
hoes!”“Let’s play again on Sa
turday!”“I can play as loud as I want in the ba
sement!”The scunthorpe problem always made me giggle
The funny part is that they set up the detection for “hoe” wrong. “Ho” is the insult; “hoe” is a garden tool. Even jeopardy knows it.
RuneScape originally replaced censored words with “cabbage” so a rude message may read “cabbage off newb!” And honestly I feel like that’s the best way to implement a child friendly censor
Black K***ht, of Dark Souls
Or butter being censored as ****er
Arguably making it much worse
Dark Souls’ implementation is something special. Censors your name based on the language settings you have in place at the time, voice-over dialogue remains in English. So change your system language to either another language you know, or play it a few times so you know what things are, and then put the most offensive shit in as your character name you like.
Great cropping job
but thats a part of the joke
I guess I just don’t get it
It’s the screenshot equivalent of a TV show cutting to the next scene the moment a punchline lands — usually a stronger and more “taboo” punchline that followed up in the dramatic pause after a previous more light-hearted punchline.
It’s what they do on the other social medias, probably because they scan images for words nowadays?
Honestly what made me laugh.
Recent changes in GTA Online moderation now censor words like “meth” and “cocaine” in chat…
…in a game where large portions of the gameplay are focused around selling meth and cocaine.
Is that game even any fun anymore? I stopped playing after the first year or so.
From what I’ve seen the real fun is on the private FiveM servers
“It’s the D–k van D–e show! Starring D–k van D–e!”
I was playing The Finals and apparently LMAO gets censored, it made me look like an asshole!
Did the Finals finally get text chat? I remember getting annoyed that I couldn’t yell at my teammates when they played like morons.
Chat censoring should be mostly on the user side with user controlled blacklists and whitelists, with moderator involvement mostly for circumventing the filters.
Don’t want to see “penis”? Put it on your own blacklist.
This game is ESRB teens
But then you have to see penis while writing penis on the blacklist!
But I do wholeheartedly agree. Censorship should be opt-in, and no one should be bowing to government censorship.
Two best examples were:
-
Total War censoring the username Nasser to N***er
-
Gamefreak banning their own Pokemon (Cofagrigus) from online play unless you renamed it first.
My favorite is GTAO having a language filter thats impossible to turn off. The NPC’s will literally yell fuck you when you drive by them but YOU cant say fuck.
-
animal crossing on ds censored town board messages client side so if you edited the word list in the rom to be blank you could use a flash cart, join someone else’s town, put whatever profanity you wanted, and they would see it in their town but wouldnt be able to swear in their own game or anyone else’s.
Was the word retarded? It was retarded, wasn’t it? I’m a full on retard myself so I have a pass.
Probably “stupid.” Hence the weird spelling
Can you not?
