on one hand, i get why people use this response as a rebuttal, but i don't think people are choked about not being able to see boobs. Like, bro, we all have the internet, boobs are just a quick google search away. It's the shock and horror of it being subsided is what's rubbing me and other people the wrong way. Although regarding the wang, the first few times i played that mission with the ghillie suit guy, i honestly never noticed his dick was out until i saw issac morgans lore video on it lmfao

[livid rivet]

Oh doesn't cyberpunk just straight up show coochie

[agile wasp]

There are many graphic sex scenes in Cyberpunk

[quiet dagger]

Yes, as does BG3.

[ancient matrix]

The difference is in themes, context and amount of that stuff, etc.

[devout sand]

just wait for gta6 see which one have more 🤣

[idle frigate]

Bro comparing cd project to void how??

[twilit badge]

Small indie studios aren't gonna have leverage when it comes to certification

[idle frigate]

Might get banned in some countries

[lime notch]

[agile wasp]

I'm planning on eating you

[livid rivet]

Also I just learned about people being upset about something concerning redpill? Idk if that's old news or not

[tall yarrow]

It’s not voids fault that PlayStation is bitching and there not gonna pull console release all cause of PlayStation bitching

[lime notch]

wait Johnny he has a live explosive inside of him

[ancient matrix]

Iirc old new from ea days

[twilit badge]

Take GTA it's a very successful franchise so they know they'll down in profit so they get leeway it's crappy but it is what it is

[devout sand]

acat47 👍

[lime notch]

DON'T EAT HIM JOHHNY

[quiet dagger]

It's VOIDs fault for caving in to make sure that they don't upset the kiddies.

[ancient matrix]

I think old station used to have some redpill easter eggs iirc

[twilit badge]

It's more not trying to upset the ESRB

[tall yarrow]

Not really kids shouldn’t be playing the game it’s just that PlayStation is bitching and there not gonna just pull the console launch 😭😭

[ancient matrix]

More like actually release their game on console as otherwise the rating would be AO and that means no sells on console

[quiet dagger]

Then leave the PC version alone.

[agile wasp]

I am a construct inside your head

[twilit badge]

The problem is the ESRB is self-governed and consistently rigged

[ancient matrix]

Due to crossplay they cannot

[quiet dagger]

Change the guns to NERF guns on consoles.

[lime notch]

well not really since to get the game on consoles they have to listen to the rating douchbags

[tall yarrow]

Then they can’t do cross play

[idle frigate]

Microsoft too

[ancient matrix]

Game versions have to be almost 1:1 to work correctly in crossplay

[tall yarrow]

That’s really fucking stupid 😭😭

[devout sand]

i think 1 good reason why console ron dont have mod , theres some modded map is abt those str*p place yeah..........

[lime notch]

NOOOOOOOO

[agile wasp]

Yessssssss bring pizza

[ancient matrix]

Stop place?

[devout sand]

who knows 🤣

[tall yarrow]

I think he means strip clubs

[lime notch]

BUT WHICH ONE THERE IS LIKE A THOUSAND HERE

[quiet dagger]

Crossplay with consoles adds latency. I always turn off crossplay when given the chance.

[twilit badge]

Like the ESRB will actually avoid the lootboxes situation like the board will just get up and leave if questioned

[tall yarrow]

But you realise there’s people who wanna use this as a chance too play with friends who can’t afford a pc

[twilit badge]

I feel the ESRB just needs to go away

[glass mulch]

ye, i get what you mean

[tall yarrow]

It shouldn’t go away it should be genuinely just overhauled

[marble kestrel]

Parents should be responsible for what their children buy/watch

[twilit badge]

I do a lot of tech some of the things are pretty recent

[ancient matrix]

ESRB has it's pros, it's just poorly managed n has lots of double standards

[agile wasp]

Hawaiian

[quiet dagger]

A console release shouldn't strip away the visceral experience for PC gamers then.

[marble kestrel]

I get why the ESRB exists though, theres plenty of adults who don't want to see horrific content, so having a rating thing on the back of a product letting you know generally what type of content something has isn't a bad idea. It's essentially a filter for the consumer

[ancient matrix]

If anything it needs a proper overhaul in the company structures

[tall yarrow]

What confuses me is last of us and red dead 2 has loads of gore

[lime notch]

k

[twilit badge]

They either just drop the double standards or go away I have always been tired of the ESRB

[tall yarrow]

It’s stripping away a bit of gore and a seizuring child

[lime notch]

well you see rockstar probably "Bribed em"

[ancient matrix]

Idk, I've never been affected by esrb so it's whatever for me

[tall yarrow]

That and last of us is like a cash pig for PlayStation

[twilit badge]

I look at the ESRB like it's a tumor that just doesn't go away

[lime notch]

yep yep

[twilit badge]

Not directly

[ancient matrix]

Rockstar also has history within courts cuz of different gta dramas, they know better than any other dev studio what's appealing for esrb n other ratings

[twilit badge]

Your end product gets affected by the ESRB if you are in the US

[ancient matrix]

I'm not in us, so could care less again

[twilit badge]

And stores like Nintendo Xbox and Sony won't accept without certification

[prisma tapir]

thank fuck Australia doesn't have esrb and pegi

[lime notch]

ohh I forgot about that part

[ancient matrix]

Don't they have their own ratings

[tall yarrow]

Didn’t they pull ron at one point

[twilit badge]

So it's pretty much bend over for the ESRB or you sell nothing for the most part

[agile wasp]

I love Australia

[prisma tapir]

they is me and yes its on the bottom of my profile

[full lotus]

wait whats happening?

[agile wasp]

Being Australian is great

[prisma tapir]

its incredibly easy to appeal game bans in AUS

[twilit badge]

And as void is an indie developer I can understand why they did what they did

[lime notch]

they did but then void and the Aussies had a bit of talk and settled to let the game be on Australia again

[prisma tapir]

🇦🇺 🗣️

[agile wasp]

Omg another Australian we must hug

[prisma tapir]

QLD myself

[twilit badge]

This is why I said the ESRB needs a removable

[agile wasp]

Victoria

[twilit badge]

ESRB will not sit and negotiate if you don't have a wad of cash under their nose

[prisma tapir]

i was in Wantirna for 2 years

[lime notch]

FR

[agile wasp]

Australia ratings r the most fucking backwards thing

[prisma tapir]

i love them

[twilit badge]

Fun fact if it got rated AO no one in the US would really sell it

Physical stores ban AO games in stores Microsoft Sony and Nintendo ban AO games from their store and if I recall to an extent steam does this to as well as Gog

[hoary island]

i just downloaded this game again after a few months out. Why in the earth have the devs catered to the execs and consored it just for consol releases????? wtf???? downvote from me.

[lime notch]

well because of both platforms guidelines

[hoary island]

was insane before and a breath of fresh air that devs made it real, ruined it just for consoles

[hidden ether]

is anyone even excited for the new guns??

[twilit badge]

If a game in the US is bare minimum M it can be sold if they labeled it AO it will be like a drought

[devout sand]

who cares anyways 🤣

[lime notch]

can't blame em they had to follow xbox and ps guidelines to even get the game on console

[twilit badge]

They mostly had to follow the ESRB

[hoary island]

because its just yet again falling into what every other game is, it doesnt have character anymore, and censorship fkin sucks.

[lime notch]

ESRB

[hoary island]

idk what that is bro

[twilit badge]

Major store fronts typically won't sell without certification and the ESRB is how the game gets certified

[hoary island]

wasnt there a way they could have just left the pc version alone?

[lime notch]

Entertainment Software Rating Board

[twilit badge]

Not if cross play is a thing

[prisma tapir]

as a console only user im really annoyed myself because i didn't pay over 87AUD to have a watered down experience i got the game for something never experienced on consoles ever before, real and hard hitting experiences

[agile wasp]

I can't wait for ready or not

[devout sand]

time to invest in a pc lmao

[lime notch]

BBC

[devout sand]

no limitation , pure fun , more games , more mods

[hoary island]

like dont get me wrong, it WAS dark before and was a bit like 'oh shit', but thats what made is an insane experience, and you WANTED to hunt down the evil bad guys even more so you know

[prisma tapir]

same changes were made to pc

[twilit badge]

I'm really tempted to post a Shawn of the dead Winchester meme but I'm unable to

[devout sand]

at least have nexus mods 💀

[lime notch]

I am guessing it censors when cross play is on

[hoary island]

like it was gruesom but it gave you that motvation to hunt them down and idk, its just watered down like you said

[prisma tapir]

EXACTLY, now i wont feel as encouraged to use leathal force

[twilit badge]

That's the point

[lime notch]

Sony and Microsoft say otherwise

[hoary island]

yeah, idk, if anything it was just a breath of fresh air that devs went out of their way to make it that real, as this dark shit does happen, and its good to be on the good side of it, but yeah its just not as idk

it is what it is, just disappointing

[twilit badge]

You are a swat officer you aren't trying to kill people left and right you are there to do your job which is go in apprehend suspects if possible and secure evidence and civilians

[prisma tapir]

god forbid people play how they want

[agile wasp]

Knowing how bad I am at games I will shoot at least one person per level in the face multiple times by accident

[twilit badge]

It's legitimately called swat not cod

[hoary island]

look at the recent steam reviews too

all negative in last day or so, all about this update

[twilit badge]

Ready or not is legitimately a swat game not a cod game

[livid rivet]

I'm going to back up my game so at least I have the uncensored version

[twilit badge]

It will blow over

[prisma tapir]

gonna kill every suspect just to piss you off further

[hoary island]

do we know when the update is happening? or is it already removed?

[novel patio]

It’s an absolutely nothing burger to start crying over lmao

[idle frigate]

7/15

[livid rivet]

Nah just tested dismemberment, saw wang, and the seizing child

[hidden ether]

won't someone just mod the stuff back in after a week once the update drops??

[hoary island]

15th july? i dont do american dates

[idle frigate]

I ain't American

[twilit badge]

I'm just telling you why it is what it is going in guns blazing isn't how a swat game is meant to be played

[hoary island]

lmao

[lime notch]

July 15th

[prisma tapir]

lol

[livid rivet]

Exactly why I'm backing mine up, I'm not a modder but at least I'll have the assets

[hoary island]

thanks tho

[idle frigate]

After 17 days

Bro you fr?

[lime notch]

also I am confused actually is the censor only for console users right?

[idle frigate]

Pc too

[twilit badge]

Then again most of what I play is moving in as efficiently and swiftly as possible with minimal drawback

[lime notch]

bruh

[quiet dagger]

Hopefully we can re-download the original assets as a mod.

[idle frigate]

You won't notice the changes and pc have mods

[lime notch]

well yea tho lot of mods gonna get fucked when the update drops

[twilit badge]

People just love overreacting I knew what I was expecting going in a swat game where you have the task of a swat officer anything other than that is secondary in my mind

[livid rivet]

I hope they fix the bots blowing themselves up because they don't check for traps

[hoary island]

ok maybe i even jumped the gun, the changes arent actually that bad, I was udner the assumption form the comments it changed the game completely, i take it back my bad, just small minute details

[twilit badge]

Lmfao

Is it bad I actually wanna see that

[hidden ether]

I know this is a weird question but u know lethal obession did someone really have to model a dude's junk for hours just for it to be censored now??

[livid rivet]

Like seriously I was just minding my own business when my entire squad wipes themselves out, I'll see if I can get a recording for you

[hoary island]

lmao

[twilit badge]

People read 2 parts and went ham that's really about it

[livid rivet]

Are we allowed to talk spoilers here I assume then?

[lime notch]

ohh shit I forgot they aren't actually censoring completely, sry lad for making you under the assumption that its all censored

[twilit badge]

Like read the full thing not 2 words then slam lol

[prisma tapir]

child should still be seizing

[wet jungle]

Hi what is briefing 87 what is the update for the game

[hoary island]

yeah.... that was my assumption too, I thought we went from a "ok maybe is a bit too real" to disneyland, but it really aint the case, just tiny changes

[twilit badge]

At first I said oh no censorship then I actually read the situation and it's so bare minimum that there's nothing to complain about

[devout sand]

theres spoilers? 🤔

[hoary island]

i mean like i guess we'll see for ourseves on July 15th

[lime notch]

the briefing shows some new changes for the game and the update coming July 15th with the console release and also explict content will be getting changed a little ONLY LITTLE to meet ESRB guidelines

[unique moon]

There goes the fun in RON

[twilit badge]

It's just clothes on naked characters and no dismemberment of dead bodies

[unique moon]

Still ruins the realism

[frank crescent]

How dare we not see a guys weiner!

[unique moon]

They will probably remove the college level too because it’s ”too” controversial later

[wet jungle]

So do we know what the changes are

[strong grotto]

detroit became human or teardown??!

[livid rivet]

All I'll say is a certain part of the story wouldn't have the same impact it did without the censorship on the last map of the main story, I remember seeing it completely out of the blue not knowing anything and it was absolutely shocking,

[hidden ether]

I don't see anything wrong with this just encourages less violence in videogames

[hoary island]

I think the problem is that they started the bar so real, that any changes to undo it is a downgrade whereas if they started like the changes they are making no one would think any different

[violet trench]

I want to see the Weiner that's the only reason I bought the game

[lime notch]

well yes but maybe there are some changes not revealed yet

[frank crescent]

Might as well remove half of the missions then lmfao

[unique moon]

Wouldn’t surprise me

[strong grotto]

detroit became human or teardown pls pls pls answear me I am so lost

[livid rivet]

It was originally supposed to be a high school right? Should have stayed that way imo

[lime notch]

well atleast it isn't **Completely ** censored

[frank crescent]

Wym

[twilit badge]

They have already stated because I asked is the school shooting getting removed they said no

[strong grotto]

idk which to buy

[wet jungle]

So what are the changes

[frank crescent]

Oh, detroit become human

[lime notch]

I just explained it to you earlier

[strong grotto]

thanks!

[frank crescent]

Trust lol

[remote ravine]

whats going on

[frank crescent]

The usual

[twilit badge]

All the levels will be in the game I love how people just jump to conclusions over a bare minimum change

[remote ravine]

Ahhhh i see

[frank crescent]

People bitching about the console port because of censorship

[remote ravine]

I heard the game got review bombed

[frank crescent]

Not even that bad, you can still blow limbs off when theyre alive

[twilit badge]

It's not even that much censorship either

[lime notch]

yes but only kinda not like helldivers 2 I think also yes its a big fucking over reaction

[prisma tapir]

exactly, and the overdosing child will be changed to a sleeping animation instead, so its not gonna hit hard at all anymore, its just gonna be "eh sleeping kid whatever, next room"

[livid rivet]

||I think they'll add undergarments to the trafficking victims in Port Hokan, I think it's a good middle ground if they keep them topless for the shock factor||

[twilit badge]

Kinda like the GTA V strip clubs lol

[remote ravine]

Honestly im glad they're taking some time to censor some stuff in their game

[livid rivet]

EXACTLY

[remote ravine]

mainly the nudity and child exploitation

[lime notch]

not really they just covering it a little to meet guidelines for console port

[frank crescent]

First place im going in GTA6 btw🙏

[violet trench]

Real

[twilit badge]

Lmfao

[livid rivet]

I remember when the Valley of the Dolls images were literally pixelated in the game, I'm suprised they wouldn't change that

[lime notch]

soo yea it will be still present in this game

[frank crescent]

Most disturbing mission btw

Wont be surprised if they change some of the CD cases

Or remove the crib inside of the basement level

[remote ravine]

I doubt that, it looks like they're just removing things that are nore direct such as the images on the computer in "23 megabytes a second"

It looks like void is just adding more pieces to connect the dots, which honestly makes it more disturbing in my opinion

[zenith moth]

says in the newsletter that that was changed just for console and remains unchanged on PC

[livid rivet]

How can the ESRB be upset about realistic nudity depicted in a nuanced way when there's literally a porn studio in the game

[prisma tapir]

there's full blown nudity in outlast and cyberpunk and those remain uncensored on consoles

there's also extreame gore in outlast on consoles

[lime notch]

they mainly I guess focus on the more smaller and indie studios for some reason

[remote ravine]

My guess is that it falls under "prolonged nudity" since its a character model and not in a cutscene

[agile wasp]

You can quite literally shower with your love interest in Cyberpunk

[remote ravine]

still bs tho

[lime notch]

yea and also be ga-

[livid rivet]

Also I didn't even know there was dismemberment until now

Probably because I never use shotguns

[frank crescent]

Shotguns are so fun

[lime notch]

yea shotty's or I think explosives do dismemberment

[remote ravine]

Switching down the first thing i see once it comes to console

[livid rivet]

I just started using them today, they are super fun when there's no civvies to worry about

[frank crescent]

Fr

[prisma tapir]

RoN really doesn't need to be censored and shouldn't be

[lime notch]

yep,

[prisma tapir]

outlast isn't censored on consoles so RoN shouldn't be either

[lime notch]

wait who made outlast again?

[devout sand]

im curious , u play ron is to save the civs or stare at them

[livid rivet]

||there's literally a poster in VotD of a drawing of a guy and a girl with both their genitalia exposed about to do the bedroom dance||

They haven't even mentioned that in the community post, there's no way that's going to fly

[prisma tapir]

red barrels

[lime notch]

huh weird

[dense hound]

Red barrels doesn’t censor

void bows down 😂 seen enough already

[lime notch]

no the fact that ESRB didn't look at them

but instead other studios like VOID

[dense hound]

i know this will put off a lot of people tho, says a lot about a company when they do this

[lone sierra]

I won't buy next DLC if you censor

[dense hound]

we can’t have good things in gaming anymore y’all, its over

[prisma tapir]

i pre ordered it for the realism, and for the moments that would actually shock me like the overdoesd seizing child

[lime notch]

not really over "YET" but ummm yea the industry is dying slowly and painfully

[dense hound]

adult games have adult content? woah!

that’s such a suprise!

[devout sand]

next dlc? its free lmao

[dense hound]

re9 single handedly saving the industry

[lime notch]

hmmmmm not sure about that

[prisma tapir]

its a shame void complied instead of fighting back

[dense hound]

yeah they bowed down

same happened with the splitgate 2 developers so now their game is dead

[lime notch]

I think they did tried to fight back in the back but they aren't rockstar sooo yea they gave up

can't fight the board as indie

[devout sand]

rmb VOID company is small 🤷‍♂️

[lone sierra]

for deluxe edition

[lime notch]

they did made a lot of money at early access, soooooo where did that money go? it could have been used to make a lot more great content.

[ancient matrix]

Well the EA money was used to push out 1.0

[ancient matrix]

Then 1.0 money was used for dlcs

[livid rivet]

Honestly I think it's not that the ESRB would reject them, it's more that it's expensive as hell to submit a game for the ESRB to review, of course I'm not sure what the budget is for this game or what their finances are, but I think they wanted to ensure their game would pass the first time

High-budget games (over $250k): $4,000.
Low-budget games (under $250k): $800.
Indie games (under $1 million): $3,000 for retail versions

[devout sand]

ur high is too low 💀

[livid rivet]

I'll have to check again, ai slop lol

[devout sand]

high budget minimum 1mil 🤷‍♂️

[livid rivet]

according to giantbomb

The ESRB has a fee for rating games and that fee depends on how much the game cost to develop. If the game cost more than $250,000 dollars the fee would be $4,000 dollars, if the cost of development was less than $250,000 dollars the fee would be $800.

[faint wigeon]

well they kinda need to in order to port it to console with cross play

[prisma tapir]

the whole point of RoN is to be realistic and hard hitting when you witness certain things, censorship makes that pretty pointless and just makes it a typical game

[dense hound]

ready or woke?

[lime notch]

wait isn't it not actually censorship?

[frank crescent]

Sooo, its woke because the big publishers MADE them do it??? VOID probably didnt have a say in this, yall need to read the whole thing lmao, acting like theres not even blood effects anymore like halo, you can still dismember bodies for example while theyre alive

[novel patio]

What do you mean by woke

[idle frigate]

Bro these people crying for 2 days now get over it

[frank crescent]

Ong

[lime notch]

or maybe they are "RAGEBAITING"

[idle frigate]

Doesn't affect plus if you were void you would've done the same thing

[novel patio]

And they’d literally never have noticed if void didn’t outright say it

[idle frigate]

Yes another way of saying it

[idle frigate]

Exactly just void wants to keep the trust between them and the community

[lime notch]

alr I amma go and play sandstorm

[frank crescent]

And when they do that the community throws a temper tantrum

[lime notch]

bye lads

[frank crescent]

Over not being able to see some dudes weiner

[frank crescent]

Take it easy man

[lime notch]

wut

[frank crescent]

Jus sayin bye lol

[lime notch]

oh ok, bye

[dense hound]

Halo is even worse

Seems like I hit a nerve with woke 😂 people pay with their wallets remember y’all

[novel patio]

Oh damn didn’t know people used money to buy things

[dense hound]

Good thing they do :)

[spice cedar]

is everyone review bombing for censorship another helldiver event ???

[prisma tapir]

ah review bombing, my favourite war thunder pastime

[novel patio]

Helldivers had some justification

This is just bitching and crying

[dense hound]

😭😂

bullseye

[faint wigeon]

its a rainbow are you fucking serious

[ancient matrix]

Kinda funny how ppl got mad over the censorship more than the development of the game through the years ngl

Lmaoo. Moe's tag checks out ain't gonna lie

[faint wigeon]

wrap it up bubba

[faint wigeon]

i get that, but if they want cross platform they have no other choice

[ancient matrix]

Brother doesn't even know that rainbows have always been a part of space art aesthetic and not because of lgbt

[faint wigeon]

associating a rainbow to lgbtq is like associating the russian flag in ur pfp to communism

he doesnt have a pride flag in his pfp numbnuts

[ancient matrix]

Anti woke ppl wake up and have gay ppl living in their head rent free. They pretend to hate them while thinking about them all the time. Who's gay now?

[prisma tapir]

its a space pfp nothin gay about it

[faint wigeon]

you surely cannot be this dumb bro 😭

[faint wigeon]

lmao

[ancient matrix]

And he's gone

[prisma tapir]

lmao

[ancient matrix]

He DMd me sayin' I'm a pedo, meanwhile all I did was call anti-woke ppl gay

[faint wigeon]

woke is such a cringe word

[prisma tapir]

what a delusional bitch he is lol

[opaque sentinel]

Its always the real pedos that calls everybody else for pedos

[ancient matrix]

True, instead we should use pee pee poo poo heads

[novel patio]

Oh are we talking about me

[ancient matrix]

Yeahhh you triggered him lmaoo

Bro did nothing and won in the end

[livid rivet]

mfs being triggered by pink floyd for having a rainbow in their album art... which is in no way associated with lgbtq+

[ancient matrix]

Never ever tell anti woke ppl how prism works

[livid rivet]

Never tell anti woke people to look at the sky after a rainstorm 😂

I've actually seen a double rainbow in person

[ancient matrix]

It's pretty neat

Not as rare as ppl make it out to be tbh, I've seen it a fair amount of times

[livid rivet]

Absolutely, I think it's because of that meme about the guy freaking out

[ancient matrix]

Maybe

[zenith moth]

i bet it also depends on your latitude

[faint wigeon]

get back to work

[livid rivet]

Man I feel old even thinking about that meme, that's classic internet

[zenith moth]

IT'S SUNDAY

i get to shitpost in here now

[livid rivet]

Man the guy died in 2020

[ancient matrix]

It depands on how far we're from an sdk. More double rainbows = further away from the sdk

[novel patio]

Almost Monday let’s go

Sunday is new monday anyways

Look at my pfp and profile

[teal shell]

Only liked RON for the shock factor and bare-faced evil potrayed in the game, felt good having the D-platoon fight against it, still remember the feeling of shock and horror on seeing the web-cams and the poor naked locked in the container, new update sounds like its trying to ruin everything

[rigid bone]

Do I need to elaborate?

Omg lebanese

[novel patio]

[faint wigeon]

oh damn, i did NOT know timezones were that far apart

[rigid bone]

I can promise that the changes are a lot worse in your head then they actually are

[prisma tapir]

yeah its ass

[ancient matrix]

RoN players being delulu? Color me surprised

[faint wigeon]

i genuinely dont think anyone would notice the changes if they hadnt been announced

[rigid bone]

Nothing is changing that is dulling how shocking the game is

[real fox]

Are the changes just bringing it all down a notch?

[rigid bone]

Not even close to all of it

[novel patio]

Yea it’s pretty sweet

[real fox]

Just because if it isnt that much of a difference whats the point

[novel patio]

Because they had to if they wanted to release the game on consoles

[ancient matrix]

It's not much of a difference for players, but it is big for big corpos

[rigid bone]

Because we had to, we literally didn't have a choice if we wanted to do consoles and physical

[idle frigate]

You in Australia?

[novel patio]

Nz

[patent portal]

Just beat Titanfall 2 for the third time, masterpiece

[idle frigate]

Explains the time difference

[real fox]

Ohh alright thanks you

[livid rivet]

||are the graphic posters on VotD being censored? I mean it's quite literally drawn sex||

[rigid bone]

The changes were as small as we could do and still be in compliance

[real fox]

Isnt the game rated 18+ wtf 😭

[rigid bone]

I don't believe so. I think it was obscure enough

[idle frigate]

rules

[real fox]

Yeah ik

[livid rivet]

I'm not super upset the changes personally, I miss a couple of them that would make the experience more shocking but the details are so small that if handled well it won't make that much of a difference

Like I'm upset that the game HAD to be censored but the actual changes themselves doesn't make me wanna boycott the game or anything, be mad at the governing bodies being prudes

[real fox]

I reread it and lowkey its nothing crazy unless you like spraying the bodies ans dismembering them

[teal shell]

Im a big advocate for RON simply because I love how the game promised not to shy away from showing how cruel the world is, but censoring stuff just to appeal to big corpos is two-faced as F, on the one side you were fighting to keep the community college mission and show the fanbase how you guys stick to your guns, and on the other side youre appeasing these rating boards with censoring stuff

[real fox]

Its literally just shooting bodies that are already dead dude

[novel patio]

People will make up any fucking excuse to whine lmao

[rigid bone]

The world is still as cruel as it's always been, I genuinely believe that if we didn't say anything, people would not have noticed that we made the changes

[teal shell]

the twitching girl sleeping, the women now covered, this is just the start, im telling ya

[rigid bone]

We mentioned the changes in our continued spirit of transparency

[real fox]

Im sorry dude but if you got a problem with that your lowkey weird…

[livid rivet]

I believe people would have noticed, people are always nitpicky about things and it would have been worse if they found out that way

[novel patio]

Mhm I’m sure dude

[faint wigeon]

this isnt the start, its the end. they do not need to make anymore changes after the ones they are already making

[rigid bone]

Is also not the start, it's the end. We've already passed cert, they can't make us change anything else

[ancient matrix]

Nah Kam you don't get it. You guys are woke and big corpo boot lickers. Now you have to cancel the game completely and shut down the studio because redditors got mad

[faint wigeon]

ok kam just copy my shi ig

[rigid bone]

[livid rivet]

Transparency is always better no matter what the backlash

[wide lichen]

we don't believe you...

[real fox]

am i the only one that thinks if your complaining about the women being covered your lowkey weird 😭😭

[novel patio]

Who’s we

[teal shell]

lets hope so

[faint wigeon]

who is we brochacho ✌️

[ancient matrix]

Or lack of weiner

[rigid bone]

I haven't lied to y'all over the 3 years I've been your CM, I don't intend to start now

[half stratus]

hey kam, i have a shotgun ammo question

[wide lichen]

the shills here believe everything...

[half stratus]

do you think/know if we'll get alternatives to the classic buck/slug

[rigid bone]

I don't think so

[glass mulch]

^ this here folks.

[real fox]

Can we get dragon breath shotgun shells plz

[solar sparrow]

saar plz give me goon material saar…..

[novel patio]

What else would you suggest

[zenith moth]

RIP gerard's dong ✊

Sorry no cock for y'all.

2023-2025

[real fox]

dragons breath!

[glass mulch]

in b4 modders just mod it back in

i wouldn't be susprised

[teal shell]

how many games you seen with the guts to potray something as wretched as human trafficking by showing it as it is, not many i would think, the time I first saw those women was just heartbreaking and really made me think, it wouldnt have been the same if it'd been any other way

[real fox]

Them being covered up will still potray the same thing

[half stratus]

to be fair, you know how much of the modding community is gay?

[rigid bone]

You can look at video of it yourself, trafficking victims are generally retrieved fully clothed. How were portraying them is still comparatively over the top, that's not changing

[solar sparrow]

yeah but who’s gonna be shooting dead bodies just to cause further dismemberment bro 😭✌️ officer hannibal lecter

[half stratus]

no mercy for terrorists

[real fox]

You definitely turn the body cam off

[glass mulch]

Ida,tdt

[half stratus]

i always do an extra shot in the head or two just to make sure they arent faking

[novel patio]

That’s just standard police procedure

[half stratus]

i know 4 modders personally, three are gay and one's a girl

[glass mulch]

but i can see where your coming from.

[real fox]

was joking

[glass mulch]

fair enough

[livid rivet]

As for the covering up situation if they just give them bottom underwear I think that settle's the ESRB's concern, topless women have been in many games and I think it would have the same effect

[novel patio]

We’re still going goddamn

[half stratus]

let em censor the endangered women you wierdo, it makes em more money

[solar sparrow]

my ready or not goon material….this c-can’t be!! no…noo…..💔

[runic aspen]

So.. the console version is censored now?

[rigid bone]

Please read the pinned FAQ

[livid rivet]

I'm not saying that because haha boobies, you can literally see millions with a single search and if ya'll are gooning to RoN that's concerning

[real fox]

bro 😭

[half stratus]

hey kam, what's your favorite long gun

[runic aspen]

Ok

[rigid bone]

[runic aspen]

Just heard the news

[half stratus]

i respect the Galil, i personally prefer the G3A3

kam please add dragon breath shells 🙏

[livid rivet]

Anyway... are bots going to stop blowing themselves up not checking for traps? It's hilarious but a little aggravating XD

[half stratus]

you gotta order them to check traps

[livid rivet]

Yes I mean after I die

[half stratus]

no lol

[prisma tapir]

why change the seizing child, it won't be eye catching anymore it'll just be "oh look sleeping child anyway next room!"

[mental dune]

Wait they took out the twitching kid from Twisted Nerve?

[livid rivet]

Child abuse is a no-go

[prisma tapir]

changed it to peacefully sleeping animation

[zenith sonnet]

The kid is still there just not twitching anymore

[livid rivet]

While that's another change that sucks for the shock value, just seeing a kid in that dilapidated house I think is enough to make you feel uncomfortable so it serves it's purpose

[half stratus]

why are you guys complaining that the game about shooting terrorists is being censored, you can still shoot terrorists

[livid rivet]

And pedos, don't forget shooting pedos

[half stratus]

potato potato

[solar sparrow]

sounds good to me

[mental dune]

nope looks like they took that out too (which is something i would be fine with, they went too dam far on that end of the spectrum)

[half stratus]

am i a bad person if, for the ones where i specifically have to capture them, i drop a CS nade at their feet

[livid rivet]

You can shoot Amos Voll

[half stratus]

you lose points tho

[crude lake]

Why are you making shit up now?

[rigid bone]

[agile wasp]

[ripe scarab]

[half stratus]

[brisk yoke]

[crude lake]

Aha!

[livid rivet]

I'm suprised the images in Voll's basement weren't censored, that's the most uncomfortable thing to me in the game

I don't know the laws nor do I wanna research it but even depictions of children in those kinds of scenarios is illegal right?

[half stratus]

no idea but he's still gonna breath in poison for as long as it takes for me to clear his house

[half stratus]

i bring 7 CS gas grenades to every mission

i think there's a bunch of people in the next room? breath it in fuckers

[real fox]

Imagine dragon breath 🙏 shooting there legs and they just burn

[half stratus]

sounds fun but they'd have to implement damage over time

[mental dune]

the streamer was a pedo now, well we know but any new players wont

[mental dune]

whats the bet they are

[livid rivet]

I'm not a betting man, but if I WAS considering the recent AI shenanigans I wouldn't be suprised if it is, the images are obviously 3D renders

[crude lake]

The same context is still there... its an essential part of the level. Its not gone

[livid rivet]

And there's the CD case near the TV

[mental dune]

the update hasnt been pushed so we dont know whats been cut and safe and seeing how the fake discord in streamer got hit, i bet it was also hit

[prisma tapir]

twitching child needs to remain its not gonna have the same impact otherwise

[mental dune]

they removed environmental story telling. idk whats on the mindjolt server.

[sleek schooner]

They serve no purpose for Law Enforcement

[crude lake]

Jesus Christ, some of y'all really need to read properly what was announced and rethink some of your BS

[sleek schooner]

They are also a fire hazard when used in CQB situations

[half stratus]

they're funny

[sleek schooner]

Less funny when you're in a CQB situation and the house you're trying to clear is set on fire.

[half stratus]

more funny, smoke the terrorists out

[mental dune]

its the weirdest change actually. the photos in streamer make a lot of sence but like its sick and fucked up. there is no impact to see a sleeping kid

[sleek schooner]

Both sides are on some BS and neither have any nuance.

Making a big fuss out of it is stupid.
Saying people can't disagree with it, is stupid.

[prisma tapir]

im talking about the drug house kid

[mental dune]

yeah i know

[frank crescent]

Ik halo is worse lol

We went from reach to whatever halo 4 was

[real fox]

read the dev note dude

[frank crescent]

But what about fun

[real fox]

your making such a big fuss over nothing

[frank crescent]

What if i wanna burn that house down

[crude lake]

Oh they can.
But they gotta prepare for two things:

A) Its happening and shouting on a discord server will not change that. Cause its clarified and already done.
and
B) That its so little, that before its happening making a big deal out of it is fun for the moment, but after release, no one will bat an eye.

[real fox]

exactly

[frank crescent]

Yk if you actually use this thing called brain power

[real fox]

what r u talking about

[frank crescent]

You can figure out what they’re implying in the new version where they don’t directly show the images on 28MBPS

[mental dune]

what am i missreading? that the pc version is getting cenesored because console needed to be scaled back for ratings? that the game "Should" have the same feel? that the game is going to have the same context despite removing the context clues? The story is still going to make sence despite the very sparce envormental story telling is removed? maybe this is on void for using little kids. I dont want it to be about pedos but it is and as such i dont wanna see it get downgraded because of some silly console requriements.

What happed to the void that told team17 to take a hike because they wouldnt let them make the game they wanted to make? more and more i wish they kept with team 17 because the game cant get any worse with them as publisher

[sleek schooner]

Money. There is money in a console release.

[crude lake]

Just causes i read it multiple times now:
Its called "sense", not sence.

[sleek schooner]

When money is made, hikes are not made.

[real fox]

Play cod or something dude calm down 😭😭

[sleek schooner]

Nah, he's got a point. VOID switched publishers because they wanted to keep their artistic integrity, but are now bending because there's money to be made on the console market.

[real fox]

literally never that deep mate

[sleek schooner]

It isn't deep, no, there's money to be made

[distant musk]

i aint readin all that, void are spineless cowards for censoring the police trauma game, especially if they want to portray a (to quote the half life community)
"Dawk and Griddy" experience

[sleek schooner]

That's sub kiddie pool levels of deep

[frank crescent]

I dont get why people are still complaining, they said theyre not rolling back their decision

Just drop it lol

[sleek schooner]

Which is exactly why they are complaining, that is the point?

[crude lake]

Okay, easy. All of that argument has already been clarified multiple times now.
Check your sources. Scroll up like.. a lot. You might find your answer.

And most importantly: "I dont want to...." and "I want that.." isnt doing anything right now.

[real fox]

wasting your energy lmao

[distant musk]

local man doesnt understand the concept of complaining to get a stupid change rolled back.

[real fox]

old man yells at cloud

[fallen sail]

He is correct though, it's too late to change it back

[brisk yoke]

https://tenor.com/view/guy-arguing-guy-talking-to-wall-talking-brick-wall-gif-18667615

[frank crescent]

Exactly

[sleek schooner]

It was too late the moment the decision was made to tap into console market money.

[wanton musk]

gort!1!!! :DDD

[mental dune]

the day everyone stops complaing the game will be dead. This game needs bug fixes and performance fixes. Bugs from all the way in adam are still in the game. preformance hasnt gotten any better either. its only gotten worse. why is everyone complaing? is because they love the game and dont wanna see it get watered down or die.

[runic aspen]

I don’t get it. We had nudity in Baldur’s Gate 3 on consoles, and even human trafficking with naked women in Watch Dogs 1

[crude lake]

Yeah this pretty much sums up all this nonsense debate

[half stratus]

morning shib

[real fox]

Old man yells at cloud.

[sleek schooner]

VOID doesn't have any weight to throw in against a regulation body.

[wanton musk]

https://tenor.com/view/bello-minions-minion-hello-gif-9122969

[sleek schooner]

Small indie company, they just need to bend over. They can't fight back.

[crude lake]

Now THAT is something worth complaining about.
But its two very different things.

[sleek schooner]

It really isn't rocket science.

[lilac vale]

I was almost gonna laugh at embed fail but discord saved you for now….

[real fox]

You wanting nudity so badly is just weird

[distant musk]

bully Sony......

[mental dune]

insted of fixing shit they make paid dlc and port it to consoles.

[fallen sail]

I do completely agree that the game is going in a fucking terrible direction with little to no fixes of actual problems, i see that as much more of a problem than the frankly terrible story making a little less sense

[sleek schooner]

Gotta love people turning arguments around.
"Oh, you don't want censorship on content that was already like this? You're a perv"

Come on now. Be better.

[crude lake]

What makes you think they dont do.. you know... both?
Ever read a patchnote?

[real fox]

Again your weird if your complaining about them wanting to cover women up

[fallen sail]

Shaming people for not liking the changes and calling them names doesn't exactly make you smarter

[sleek schooner]

No, you're weird for making some weird ad-hominem about people because they don't like a change.

[mental dune]

saying you fixed something and actually fixing somthing are 2 completely different things

[real fox]

A change of covering someone up?

[light gazelle]

never seen a chat full of snowflakes before, thanks for being whats wrong with this world

[crude lake]

Give me an example please.

[pliant briar]

are bros arguing about story changes when there's no story?

[frank crescent]

God forbid we can see a dudes penis

[fallen sail]

The nudity was part of the artistic vision and changing that cause of outside pressure is not a good thing, however some things can be worse than others

[dusky spire]

It's not about the fact that i want to see naked womans on a game. Every detail in this game reflected the lore itselft, and real life things that appen every day

[frank crescent]

Literally unplayable, wont be able to see his penis!!!

[sleek schooner]

Yes. In a game that (used to take a stand about) portraying real police-found brutality, covering things up definitely is a change people don't agree with. Remember that VOID specifically dropped a publisher because they wanted to retain this artistic, realistic and dark depiction of the things that law enforcement runs into.

[runic aspen]

If the game never had nudity, that would’ve been fine. But censoring it now? That’s a whole different story.

[fallen sail]

Not why that happened, the T17 splt was agreement from both sides

[mental dune]

easy one is the performance. AI fixes have always been a mix bag, hell i still dont know if they rolled out the changes promised before dlc1 or not.

[sleek schooner]

They took a stand then, but they don't now, because there's a lot of money to be made in the console market. That is a decision you can not agree with

You making people out to be perverts because of that opinion, is vile and very child-like.

[fallen sail]

the gerard penis storyline

[light gazelle]

❄️

[distant musk]

i think he voiced his argument poorly, many people want these very dark subjects to not be made less impactful, no human trafficker is gonna give you some clothes, RoN portrayed a dark subject, as it was, an incredibly dark and uncomfortable subject, but Sony is making them back-track and go "nah look, this incredibly violent situation these people are in?, atleast the kidnappers are kind enough to give them clothes" and such.

in other words, it's not about the pixel boobs batman, it's about the message.
imagine if Sony forces Void to remove the school shooting level, or the abused child on twisted nerve, that'd just make this game less and less accurate to the horrors of real life, all because some executive is worried about their bottom line.

[real fox]

Being this upset and crying in a discord server a bit more childish mate

[sleek schooner]

I'm just conversing with you, in a civil manner.
If you think that's crying i don't know what to tell you.

[crude lake]

"imagine if Sony forces Void to remove the school shooting level, or the abused child on twisted nerve"

But they didnt. So.

[frank crescent]

Microsoft too, btw

[real fox]

How do you know there gonna be clothed? They never said that once they only said “covered up”

[mental dune]

well i still believe void to be pervs over half of this games story. I am ok with some of it for this very reason.

[frank crescent]

If it was up to them the whole game would be deleted 😭

[crude lake]

Damn. You just played yourself, man.

[sleek schooner]

Sad reality of things law enforcement deals with. I've heard worse stories from actual officers than portrayed in the game.

[real fox]

If you want it so realistic just join the police force end of the day its a game

[mental dune]

yeah hash hash reality of it all but i never wanted a pedo plotline.

[pliant briar]

of all the things void did it's not even that controversial, is it?

[sleek schooner]

Can't get more pointless than this, have a good day lol

[real fox]

sorry fire we the devs shouldve asked for your permission

[distant musk]

i parrot stuff i hear on the internet because i have no true basis of an arguement.

[wanton musk]

Lil reminder to not be calling ppl snowflakes/childish constantly.

[light gazelle]

❄️

[wanton musk]

You can call me a snowflake idc lmao

[light gazelle]

good, atleast ur not one unlike ur moderator friend

[fallen sail]

TS so cold 😭

[mental dune]

Its not that, devs over did it a tad. 1 level sure but its an overarching plotline that streaches all the way to port

[fallen sail]

I think the devs did it as little as they could actually

[frank crescent]

Whole point of RON

[fallen sail]

I'm surprised more shit didn't get cut

[frank crescent]

Everything is cranked up to the max

[wanton musk]

They only did as much as they absolutely had to.

[fallen sail]

Characters having 20% more clothes on doesn't dissolve the human trafficking storyline

[light gazelle]

yall on about the wrong topic, add MORE nudity, and MORE graphic detail to RON, make the rating go from 18+ to 56 with grandkids+

[real fox]

Thats the point ive been trying to push calling being weird for not wanting it was shitty on my side

[pliant briar]

they could've removed the whole "storyline" and i wouldn't even notice

[light gazelle]

yall crying over a game

[idle frigate]

Fr

[livid depot]

old grandpa joe who served in panama’s gonna have fun

[light gazelle]

go outside

[idle frigate]

Real asf

[livid depot]

no they want to see a kid overdosing get it right

[distant musk]

Sony is easier to villianize, actually so is Microsoft, fuckers stole my minecraft.

[mental dune]

tbh yeah. i am just shocked at how far its going. i thought it was just the clothing but streamer moninor, the twitching girl. If the underground den doesnt get hit ...

[frank crescent]

And they force random shits onto transdows 11

[livid depot]

we should protest like people did for helldivers 2

[light gazelle]

again , your crying over a game, your annoyed about 1s and 0s, go outside lil brah

[frank crescent]

Windows is so ass lol

[idle frigate]

Get a life you mean

[distant musk]

a game i paid for, so ofcourse im pissed that content i paid for is getting removed because Executives are scared of ratings.

[light gazelle]

bro im gonna cry rlly hard, the code said 1001 ,instead of 1100, im gonna ruin my day and get annoyed about this!!

[wraith spoke]

There's no way people are actually refunding on console just because of some small censoring?

[wanton musk]

People are allowed to voice their complaints, no need to be inflammatory.

[frank crescent]

“Fortunately we have a product for those who dont have an internet connection, its called the Xbox 360”

[crude lake]

And what changed?

[distant musk]

Well, they are getting rid of content, so it's more than understandable.

[pliant briar]

deserved, you preordered the game :P

[idle frigate]

You can complain once not 24/7

[patent portal]

That's sad 💔💔

[runic aspen]

it kinda feels like an insult

[distant musk]

... what?

[frank crescent]

Im still gonna play the game lmao

[wraith spoke]

How much do you think it will affect the game as itself?

[fallen sail]

Plenty of people talking about it on steam forums, no way to confirm

[frank crescent]

Not gonna get butthurt over some pixels being changed

[light gazelle]

if you are annoyed about a few 1s and 0s being in the wrong place, the refund button always there

[sleek schooner]

If guidelines changed, and the school level has to be removed. Would you support that?

[idle frigate]

Ain't school lol

[dense hound]

good, they’ll feel it financially soon enough then

[wanton musk]

That won't happen.

[light gazelle]

they wont, a few people refunding wont do squat XD

[livid depot]

sony stopped fucking about with psn

[velvet geyser]

Protesting wouldn't work

[real fox]

Uni

[idle frigate]

Its college that way its never removed and once they passed the guidelines you can't take it back

[mental dune]

it will sell like hot cakes on day 1 for consoles then the game will slow down like it has on pc, old school players will either mod it back or leave. review bomb might make a brown stain but it wont do anything really.

[pliant briar]

not happening since adults are there and as we all know hurting adults is fine

[distant musk]

Because Void's drawn a line in the sand with Sony, or are we just hoping.

[crude lake]

They will literally outsell the PC version within weeks.

[mental dune]

its a hypothetical

[light gazelle]

Nah fr

[sleek schooner]

It might surprise you, but a university is a school…

[sharp pewter]

Refunding the game is wild. I’m definitely upset the game is being changed, but I’m not upset at the devs or the game itself. I’m upset that they’re being forced to censor their game

[fallen sail]

The guidelines can't change on a game that's already rated for its content

[wanton musk]

Because they reached console certification. The contract has been agreed. Sony/Microsoft/Review boards can't just go back on their decision because they feel like it.

[real fox]

University mostly consists of adults 😱😱

[dense hound]

dw, not a “few”

[mental dune]

um then how did the guidelines change full stop

[distant musk]

then why the censorship?

[fallen sail]

The censorship was done as part of getting rated

[velvet geyser]

Sadly there are no minors in universities😔

[livid rivet]

Exactly what I've been saying, you can't be mad a people for self censoring when it's the corpos setting the guidelines

[livid depot]

except for like 1 10 year old who has an iq of 999 or wtv and skipped everything

[light gazelle]

bro rlly thinks hes him, dis game gonna outsell pc no harm

[mental dune]

i bet you the complainers cant refund

[distant musk]

this reminds of jorjorwells book..... Fahrenheit 451

[fallen sail]

It didn't happen just the other day, it was done over a long process of time

[wanton musk]

What? They had to do some very small tweaks that they were asked to do in order to get it on console.

[real fox]

nah he got away trust

[dense hound]

hope they do lmao

[fallen sail]

bro i just saw that farenheit game the other day what the fuck was that 😭

[livid depot]

it also reminds me of another book..
1984!!!!

[sleek schooner]

I swear you people can’t read. Want me to quote again?

“What if guidelines changed so….”

[patent portal]

Refunding over nothing, just enjoy the game

[idle frigate]

It won't change

[sleek schooner]

It is a hypothetical question.

[dense hound]

if ur okay with this it’ll get worse and worse tbh

[heavy rapids]

but why outlast trials available on console and there's no censorship? There's nudity and dismembered bodies

[light gazelle]

dis too funny, im laughing so hard that people complaining over nudity being reduced. dis game still fire, does not make a difference to the gameplay

[livid depot]

nothing ever happens

[real fox]

Changed to what?

[dense hound]

corps dont really care about you, they’ll always choose money over morality

[real fox]

Nothing ever happens.

[mental dune]

it was the aussie board wasnt it, thats why it vanished for a bit

[fallen sail]

No, it was a bunch of boards

[crude lake]

How can one debate with someone, if they dont cant comprehend the basic mechanics of what led to this whole thing in the first place..

[wanton musk]

Literally dozens of countries.

[fallen sail]

RON had to get graded globally

[sleek schooner]

Hypothetically, if the guidelines changed and were forced to re-evaluation and the school level was removed: would you be as cool about it as you are now.

[pliant briar]

it would also be nice to mention that steam will go with any game that the sole purpose of existence isn't being controversial and that is not the case with whatever consoles have

[real fox]

What would the reason be tho

[fallen sail]

AUS took it off store because of how their certification process works

[distant musk]

I'm having some trouble understanding why games like GTA and such are allowed Nudity, or excessive gore and everything, whilst Void is bent over the table here.
is it because of Void just being a smaller studio with less pull compared to GTA, or another reason

[velvet geyser]

The censor ship is unnoticeable, why are you guys so pent up about this

[livid rivet]

I love looking at what L4D2 looked like in Australia, you think we have it bad here L4D2 got absolutely screwed

[plucky dirge]

WE DON'T WANT CROSSPLAY FUCK CONSOLE

[sleek schooner]

Simply: guidelines changed and this depiction is no longer allowed.

[sharp pewter]

For sure. And I know that every game is not on the same playing field with the rules. Smaller companies like Void are gonna have to bend the knee more than Rockstar, Activision, or CDPR

[mental dune]

Minors. thats why

[patent portal]

fr

[wanton musk]

Unfortunately, they don't treat developers equally. Void are not treated the same as rockstar.

[wicked tundra]

maybe cause i preordered a game which promise feature that i wont have finally

[light gazelle]

on an 18 rated game

[real fox]

Gta does NOT have excessive gore and nudity its literally just boobies

[plucky dirge]

censor their game as much as you want but leave PC out of it, i paid 120 dollars for the shitty game

[pliant briar]

have you seen kids in gta? me neither

[crude lake]

Such as?

[mental dune]

No not players under 18.

[velvet geyser]

Is a person convulsing a feature?

[livid rivet]

And penar

[real fox]

But it simply just wouldnt happen

[gusty stump]

Preach it V

[fallen sail]

It very well could have

[sleek schooner]

You don’t understand what a hypothetical question is, nevermind lol.

[distant musk]

that's why i said "GTA and other such", i was referencing stuff like Still Wakes the Deep (among many other games), the mutilated corpses in that put RoN to shame.
please do better to read the full message next time.

[wicked tundra]

dismember nudity slap animation now it’s just a censor gale

[crude lake]

Slap animation?

[real fox]

You can still dismember you monkey did you read the dev note you just cant spray the dead body

[light gazelle]

what happens if i spray it

[patent portal]

The moon explodes

[heavy rapids]

outlast trials have nudity and dismembered bodies. The game is available on consoles uncensored

[velvet geyser]

I'm gonna spray it with my liquid

[livid depot]

‘excessive gore’ and a molotov tints your enemies completely black and explosions just dont do anything to them except kill

[plucky dirge]

changed my review, fuck void

[sharp pewter]

I said this the other day, and 2 people argued semantics with me that M rated is 17+ so it’s COMPLETELY different than AO being 18+

[wicked tundra]

when u cuff someone

[distant musk]

amen

[real fox]

Why is there a 60 second cooldown holy

[wide lichen]

👍

[crude lake]

Where is it stated that its gone exactly?

[patent portal]

They're a bigger studio than void, so they get treated differently

[livid depot]

gordon would be very disappointed in you

[wicked tundra]

nah that’s not true u can dismember when they’re alive but for what purpose id like to dismember voll even if he’s dead

[livid rivet]

Man can't stand those people, to me the difference between M and AO is pretty much whether it's a literal porn game or not

[pliant briar]

it could also be that whatever outlast have is a key part of the game, which isn't the case for ron

[wicked tundra]

cause of new cuff animation

[patent portal]

Yea there's so much nudity in outlast that it IS the game atp

[distant musk]

The biggest tragedy from this censorship, my boy Gerard no longer a free man living his best life

[wanton musk]

Because it's loud.

[light gazelle]

can i still spray cuffed innocent civillians?

[livid depot]

the old man from UP is a escaping felon who kidnapped a little boy

[velvet geyser]

This is literally why gamers are viewed as pretentious, they complain due to the smallest of things

[plucky dirge]

I've been here since the early access release and i never thought the game would become what it did, not only all of the fake promises, the really horrible release. But they also decide to pull this shit

[real fox]

mercy bro please

[mental dune]

the reason why its not allowed is because its involving minors in the game. its something i mentioned back when it vanished on stream in aus. Some aspects are just a bit far. The underground den for starters. But the gore was "fine", the twiching girl was "fine"(if its really an issue age her up instead of removing the animation).

[crude lake]

Oh Jesus... some folks really need to download the "Ability to read" mod xD

[pliant briar]

huh? they literally never learn and are still preordering games :P

[sharp pewter]

Fr. Gerard just tryna let his nuts hang. But Microsoft is being Macrogay

[distant musk]

"I dont want my game to lose content due to executives whining about ratings" = Smallest thing to complain about

okay

[velvet geyser]

What content?

[plucky dirge]

void was never capable of being a dev company

[real fox]

He doesnt want the girls to be like 20% covered up

[wicked tundra]

go check that video pls https://youtu.be/WT8SPuqRwAU?si=t4dnexUnC0IZZcSG

[patent portal]

The only thing that they're censoring is very minor things and Gerard's big ass balls, there's no issues

[gusty stump]

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

[distant musk]

gerard balls

[livid rivet]

It is stupid because in Outlast 1 AND GTAV there's straight up flaccid dick n balls

[plucky dirge]

me when void literally all the time

[real fox]

change the cooldown bruh

[patent portal]

[crude lake]

Brother...
They are showing a new animation.
And you ASSUME, that you loose the slap animation arrest?
Even the dude in the vid says he dont know.
Cause WHY would they

This is the lowest low to this point..

[brisk yoke]

hey @plucky dirge

[sharp pewter]

I’ll cry and complain everyday until I get a laser/light combo and a 2011 WITHOUT MODS

[runic aspen]

What fake promises?

[wicked tundra]

watch it pls he say it in the vid

[wanton musk]

valid tbh

[plucky dirge]

Are you in NDA cord?

[crude lake]

This person knows as much as you, me and everyone else.
He literally says "I DONT KNOW".
Cause he doesnt.

[real fox]

please change the cooldown man

[runic aspen]

I was here before the june update. What promises are you talking about?

[half stratus]

I think only kam can

[wanton musk]

Not just yet dude

[idle frigate]

These kids now making reddit posts saying "console players should cancel their pre orders" 🤓 ☝️

[plucky dirge]

but if you want the most obvious one, is when they promised a story with 'strong characters'

[sleek schooner]

[fallen sail]

don't please it hurts

[pliant briar]

they shouldn't have preordered in the first place...

[real fox]

Please ill massage your shoulder or some shit dude

[runic aspen]

????

[fallen sail]

ayo what

[gusty stump]

Let's censor an M-rated game, guys!

[mental dune]

yeah i agree with you. the senesorship i dont care for but this game is just misshandled. i would love to know whats going on at void

[wanton musk]

https://tenor.com/view/davy-jones-im-sorely-tempted-to-accept-that-offer-potc-gif-22551538

[idle frigate]

Bro pls change cooldwon

[sharp pewter]

I’m really just a street kid mad at the corpos fr, choom. Censorship of an adult game bad. This is literally 1984 (2077)

[sleek schooner]

Even longer slow mode, so people can’t vouch their opinion. Great move.

[distant musk]

Justice for Gerard fr...

[patent portal]

I pre ordered on the first day and I'm not going back on it because these changes are so minor that it doesn't affect the game whatsoever, I'm gonna enjoy my game

[plucky dirge]

There's NOTHING going on at void lmfao. Their heads are empty, they have no idea how to manage a successful game

[real fox]

every minute i wait to type im closer to death

[wanton musk]

It's more so people actually compile a meaningful message, instead of just "GRRR ANGY YOU SUCK"

[livid depot]

theyre removing tits and dicks not turning this into a disney remake

[pliant briar]

does sharing an opinion require multiple messages (as in spam)? i don't think so

[runic aspen]

succesfull like GB? or do you mean Zero Hour?

[sharp pewter]

At least let me react to messages. I’m tryna heart and nerd react during my cooldown

[mental dune]

they dont need to turn it into a disney remake, the strong characters were never added

[fallen sail]

I dunno about those being successful 😭

[crude lake]

All in all, this is everyone

[plucky dirge]

neither of those are successful what are you even talking about 😭

[idle frigate]

Bro devs explained and you are saying the same thing all day
Wether you like it or not it won't change

[distant musk]

Hey can the server mods get rid of the emoji??? what if some Sony exec sees it!!!!!!!11!!!!!

[livid depot]

i think a guy who goes through 18 missions of hell and sees school shooters and kiddie diddlers is pretty strong, no?

[normal sinew]

what the hell happened here

[livid rivet]

dammit now I want a steak egg and cheese bagel

[stray bridge]

But actually it's not that of a big deal🤓

Maybe but from now on the game will be developed in that mindset and Sony and Microsoft could still double down and request more stuff to be removed

[runic aspen]

Ready Or Not is one of the most succesfull tactical shooters release in the last years. Can you give me a example or more success than havin 10'000 people playing you're game everyday?

[plucky dirge]

no, they're turning it into a sony remake

[livid depot]

general discussion riot, mods are riot control and theyre failing

[distant musk]

but can he beat Goku?

[normal sinew]

why the hell is there a 1 minute slowmode bruh

[sharp pewter]

Nothing ever happens, chud. RoNny still gonna RoNny

[wanton musk]

Gonna shoot tear gas through your window.

[idle frigate]

You dumb asf
You can't change smth people already passed

[patent portal]

Probably

[sleek schooner]

Doesn’t make me magically agree with it, keep yapping lol.

[wanton musk]

That's why lmao

[plucky dirge]

what are you even talking about? i said void has no idea how to manage their single video game

[livid depot]

has goku taken a bullet to the chest after being flashbanged?

[real fox]

ill shoot tear gas into your window if you dont change the cooldown (im sorry please change it sir)

[runic aspen]

How would you manage the game then?

[pliant briar]

factorio (it's a tactical shooter if you squint hard enough)

[mental dune]

a character isnt strong because they go to hell and back, they are strong because they are written well. the characters have no writing. Everything is surface level. Suspects? Surface. Cops? Surface. Environmental Story telling? few and far between

[idle frigate]

The one thats yapping is you
Crying cause you can't see a dick tf bro

[stray bridge]

?

[distant musk]

no but like, hes got these magical balls or someshit

[sleek schooner]

You replied to me, i wasn’t talking to you or with you. Take your meds.

[plucky dirge]

That's their job and they should know better. They've been developing this game for almost a decade mf, they should be in touch with their community lmfao.

[livid depot]

do you even know what environmental story telling means???

[sharp pewter]

See y’all in 60 seconds

[idle frigate]

I think you weren't there
But as long as they passed it the people making them make the changes can't force them to do more

[pliant briar]

"too lazy to have a proper story so enjoy this"

[patent portal]

I heard these magical balls were pretty magical

[runic aspen]

They're in touch with all the feedback, even all back from 2022 they keep getting feedback about AI and mechanics and they adjusted

[distant musk]

Omsk is either ragebaiting so hard, or genuinely needs to go outside.

[livid depot]

cant believe general discussion is on code red after another wave of angry kiddoes who want to see kids ODing and titties

[wanton musk]

"Being in touch" and "not enacting the changes you want" are not mutually exclusive methinks.

[pliant briar]

genuinely untrue

[idle frigate]

You talking like you live under a dictatorship server
Also i am outside @distant musk

[plucky dirge]

Do you work at the glazing factory? 😭 they haven't been in touch at all when they leave their community in the dark ages

[sharp pewter]

And head slaps

[mental dune]

yeah and its few and far between.

[stray bridge]

They can

[sleek schooner]

What does any of this even mean. Really, take your meds.

[distant musk]

I paid for the overdosing kid game, i want my overdosing kid game 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[wanton musk]

Chill

[livid depot]

every level has stuff in it telling you shyz fym?

[idle frigate]

💀💀💀 bro doesn't know what a dictatorship is

[sharp pewter]

FIX THE FUCKING SCAR. WHY DOES IT HAVE A BUFFER TUBE!?

[plucky dirge]

You obviously just have not a single clue. No point in arguing

[sleek schooner]

He started talking to me, throwing accusations at me. I didn’t ask for it not was i talking to or with him.

[livid depot]

dictatorship is a dick-tatorship, a democracy removes the dick of the tatorship

[brisk yoke]

what

[sharp pewter]

Game devs when they make a shooter and have never touched a gun before = SCAR with buffer tube

[idle frigate]

Fr

[distant musk]

just like how void removed Gerards......

[plucky dirge]

[wanton musk]

ik its fine, just move on

[patent portal]

They're still there dw, you just have to imagine them 💔💔 #justiceforthebigballs

[livid depot]

have you ever seen bethesda guns
i’d say void messing up 1 stock of 1 gun is better than bethesda magazine fed revolver extended clip

[plucky dirge]

meow

[distant musk]

i think it's supposed to be a stock adapter, they have them for AKs too, meant to work with AR-15 style stocks.
(waiting for somebody to slap an A2 stock to an AK12M1

[livid depot]

.50 cal sawn off assault double barrel shotgun extended clip
when r u adding this void???
im cancelling my preorder if you dont

[distant musk]

Gerard's balls as a gun attachment charm like in cod?????

[plucky dirge]

ok mods chat died can you remove the slow mode

[sleek schooner]

Chat dier because of the slow mode

[distant musk]

My name is Ryan Gosling, you took Gerard's Balls, prepare to die.

[plucky dirge]

so true

[livid depot]

he doesn’t have a dick? inconceivable!

[sharp pewter]

Bethesda gotta be doing that shit on purpose. The Starfield guns are fucking insane

[livid depot]

MODS, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL! (lower cooldown)

[pliant briar]

this will be the cause of ww3 you know

[distant musk]

With how W*ke Void has gotten by removing Gerard's Balls, i think i might have to cancel my PreOrder of the Judge Bodypillow....

[livid depot]

joe rogan better cover this

[distant musk]

unless they were to give me a gerard bodypillow.......

[livid depot]

and ben shapiro

[distant musk]

Hypothetically, let's say Gerards' Balls were never in the game in the first place.

[rigid bone]

[livid depot]

lower the cooldown all the rioters have gone

[plucky dirge]

cower kaminsky

[rigid bone]

Out of spite, I'll make sure we send you two

[livid depot]

and make him pay quadruple

[wanton musk]

I'd say it's plenty low enough rn

[sharp pewter]

Yeah, I get that. But it’s still fuckin stupid. Lol

[distant musk]

Important question Kaminsky, because Gerard's Balls are a key component of Ready Or Not, can i post them in #🎨ron-screenshots-and-art
👉 👈

[plucky dirge]

here's a man who WOULD NOT TAKE IT ANYMORE!

[livid depot]

and they have a scar with the regular stock hanging on the wall in the armory next to shooting range

[sharp pewter]

We must preserve history

[plucky dirge]

a man who stood up against the CONSOLE PLAYERS, to VOID, to CENSORSHIP

[distant musk]

To preserve RoN history, im gonna go and screenshot everything the deepstate is making Void remove.

[rigid bone]

No

[heavy rapids]

the man who sold the balls

[livid depot]

GIVE ME GERARDBALLS OR GIVE ME DEATH

[distant musk]

slow insert of a 30gb folder full of the same picture of Gerard's balls

[faint wigeon]

this is epic

[distant musk]

you break my heart

[patent portal]

Still waiting on a hashbrown shirt....

[sharp pewter]

Gerard balls R.I.P 2025/07/15

[latent pelican]

Don’t censor ready or not!

[livid depot]

kaminsky is now joseph stalin

the mods are the NKVD

[latent pelican]

Wait why is RoN even being censored

[plucky dirge]

how much betrayal can the supporters take?

[frank crescent]

Is there still a 60 second cooldown

[sharp pewter]

Microsoft hates Gerard’s balls

[idle frigate]

Ok

[frank crescent]

RIP gerards balls

[livid depot]

SONY

[rigid bone]

Read the pinned FAQ

[latent pelican]

If you censor ready or not, the game isn’t horror or a story game anymore. It’s just a bland police shooter…

[sharp pewter]

Bony and Macrogay

[patent portal]

Dozens of countries wanted Gerard to get euthanized 💔

[distant musk]

the woke tolerant left want to remove Gerard's balls

[plucky dirge]

because void is greedy

[frank crescent]

He symbolizes everything an American oughta be. Patriotic, free and full of liberty 🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅

[livid depot]

we should do some bo2 cordis die type shyt and overthrow void

[distant musk]

New theory to why Gerard's balls is getting removed.

the pure CPU requirement to process them kept on crashing PS5s and XBOX consoles, they were just too majestic.

[sleek schooner]

And no balls, checks out.

[sharp pewter]

RoN getting censored? It’s pretty much The Precinct now

[plucky dirge]

after these changes not even a full length ak would make me happy

[distant musk]

Cordis Ballsack

[latent pelican]

I’m downloading mods to instant fix the new updates void is making, this is just ass.

[rigid bone]

[sharp pewter]

Mods, can I get a “Gerard Balls Lover” role?

[patent portal]

Can we spare Kaminsky 💔

[sleek schooner]

I just had a coffee, want some?

[latent pelican]

Dawg this is not RoN this is vanilla LSPD:FR. where the hell is the game

[rigid bone]

That would be nice

[livid depot]

he’s gonna be the david mason of cordis ballsack

[distant musk]

Devs should add a new mode, to make up for all the ones removed, and it should just replace every NPC with Gerard.

[sleek schooner]

Gotta love being community manager

[livid depot]

gerard scott with m249

[zinc trail]

hi guys

[sleek schooner]

Lol

[patent portal]

I need coffee

[sharp pewter]

Game should be called “Or Not” now

[distant musk]

gerard shooting up the gerard scott university of testicular anomalies

[patent portal]

Ts a masterpiece

[livid depot]

Unready or Yes

[sharp pewter]

Prepared or Nah

[latent pelican]

Ready Or Not without gore or shocking imagery can’t qualify to be a horror game, or even be a story game, once you remove the only thing that gives the game any emotion, it’s a glorified COD mission with a police logo, any meaning the game had with its quotes or assets loose its value.

[rigid bone]

None of that is changing though.

What exactly do you think we're getting rid of?

[latent pelican]

It can’t be horror without the scarring imagery

[zinc trail]

[sharp pewter]

EVERYTHING IS CHANGINGGGG. CORPO GREED IS STEALING GERARD’S BALLS

[livid depot]

KAMINSKY, WHERE IS THE PENIS!!!

[rigid bone]

Yes but none of that is changing.

You're upset because you don't know what's being changed

[latent pelican]

I wanna see the penis in game pal

[livid depot]

walter white in his crawlspace “WHERE IS THE PENIS!!!???’

[glass fog]

as someone who litteraly just got the game.
everything i read about the censorshipm boils down to "you cant shoot body parts off of a corpse anymore" "some characters are marginally more covered" and "one OD victim is now unconcious instead of convulsing" non of which feels liek it.. fundamentally changes ANYTHING?

[sharp pewter]

You’re forgetting the most important thing…

[rigid bone]

The only one I concede on is the child, that's literally it.

[latent pelican]

But it’s fun and cool, and it actually makes the game scary

[zinc trail]

WHERE IS IT SKYLAR

[latent pelican]

No more naked people, and that sucks

[livid depot]

“i gave it to SONY”

[glass fog]

once agian, littearly jsut got the game... but no??? non of that, or what i saw and heard, is "scary" its at best shocking... and even then.. thats only really true for the OD victim imo

[zinc trail]

laughs maniacally

[latent pelican]

Billions must play the maple valley high school mod, trillions even.

[crude lake]

"Sticker of the year"-material

[distant musk]

Gerard's balls ofcourse

[latent pelican]

Okay little newborn

[glass fog]

this guy is trolling right? he has to be trolling at this point

[latent pelican]

If I can’t throw grenades at children, what’s the value

[distant musk]

do me a favour, look at Gerard's balls before they are gone, it's like a onc in a lifetime experience

[zinc trail]

wtf

[livid depot]

you didn’t see gerards cock on the roof because IT ISNT THERE!

[upbeat spindle]

is there a big learning curve to Ready or not?? been thinking of buying the game since its on sale rn

[latent pelican]

Dw it’s balanced gameplay

[sharp pewter]

Good to play A Lethal Obsession so I can stare at my king Gerard’s balls before they’re ripped off by corpo greed. Literally 1984

[plucky dirge]

no balls, no nudity, and gore being toned down

[latent pelican]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WT8SPuqRwAU

[crude lake]

Oh damn, i passed the magic line

[livid depot]

gerard scott better have a voice line acknowledging his lack of a penis

[plucky dirge]

if you cant blow someones head off after killing them whats the point

[latent pelican]

Nudity is something Ron should keep

[rigid bone]

[cold aurora]

They're just making it so you can't shoot limbs off a corpse that's it bruh

[zinc trail]

thats a felony, it ruins the realism

[sharp pewter]

How many of those hours were spent staring at Gerard balls?
