Xenoblade Chronicles X Voice Actress Is In Favour Of Lin's

Unrelated to the thread, but should I make a male or female character for X?

>>322668163

This is like 2 weeks old. Over that, maybe. Definitely Pre-Xmas.

When did NL start doing click bait? This is alarming

>>322668163

This just confirms that dubs and everything related to dubs is fucking cancer. Of course a stupid fucking dubber would be okay with censorship, her job is literally censoring Japanese voices with her own anyways.

Subs or don't even watch/play it.

>>322672435
this and she's probably jewish or some shit I'm pirating that censored crap either way

it's normal if i wanna fuck Lin?

Anyone who expects them to leave in sexually suggestive costumes for a character that is repeatedly declared to be 13 years old is completely delusional and out of touch with reality.

I care about censorship because everyone (not just Lyn) got hit with the censor stick by way of removing the fundoshi, among others. The name changes also bug me.

There's a modded version of the game that removes all the censorship and adds back in the original voices, but you need a Wii U capable of piracy.

>>322669923
It's not a significant thing(i.e. won't affect gameplay) but there are a few differences in dialogue, like Irina being more receptive to a female player character.

>>322672435
dubs have always been trash
they think they're gods for releasing it in another language, changing as they will. Meanwhile people would tend to rather have anything but them, the fewer the changes is how it should be.
When they decide to translate a game, the first thing shouldn't be what can we get rid.

>>322677302

I never said it was censorship; I simply said they bug me. It's much like how FE If/Fates changed the Revenant Knight class to the Malignant Knight class, all so they could pull the joke "Maligknight".

Were i live, there are a bunch of 13 year old girls that dress and act like sluts. People dont mind that. Using swimsuit on the beach, they also dont mind. Americans are a bunch of fags.
Also Lin is not real, she is a videogame character and a mimeosome

>>322668163

My question is: Who the fuck is she even TRYING to direct this to? Because anyone with even a grain of intelligence understands why any kind of censorship is bad and thus would also see right this literal doublethink newspeak.

And on the other hand those that don't have a problem with the censorship don't need to be convinced, since they obviously already are eating up whatever is thrown at them without a thought.

>>322680041

Blame the Abrahamic religions as people claim they are not under influence of any religion at all but yet quite reasonable and willingly accept your example in green text. In truth it's just a facade as they claim are not religious and reject all aspects but are still influenced by it in this day and age even though they reject "religion" as a whole but still accept it.

Even atheist who claim they are atheist are complete bullshit as they follow the Abrahamic doctrine to a creed.

What happened to that whole voice actors on strike thingy?

>>322681098

>Even atheist who claim they are atheist are complete bullshit as they follow the Abrahamic doctrine to a creed.

Not everyone, but anyone you disagree on the internet people will just call you an edgy kid or a monster because you have different opinions.

>>322668163
It IS localisation though. Different cultures have different moral codes. In the west dressing like a slut is considered dumb and gross while Asians just don't give a fuck about women. There're too many idiots who think all the people in the world see the same thing in the same way.

>>322668163
OP, if you're desperate to see pixels, a google search is all it takes

Reminds me of Richard Honeywood's section on Culturalization in his localiation handbook.

>…culturalization allows gamers to engage with the game’s content at a potentially more meaningful level. Or conversely, culturalization ensures that gamers will not be disengaged by a piece of content that is considered incongruent or even offensive in the game’s environment.

>Cultural mistakes often prove to be costly for game developers and publishers – not just the loss of potential revenue but the greater effects of negative public relations, damage to corporate image, and strained relations with the local government. In the worst-case, a local government may not only ban the game but take more direct action against the company, including detainment of local personnel for questioning and even incarceration.

>Also, a new bug type “cultural” or “geopolitical” or whatever appropriate should be created in the bug tracking system to ensure the issues are flagged and resolved.

>>322681505

But why must a culture be "localized"? Why can't people just, I don't know, deal with the fact that different cultures exist and avoid those that they don't like as best they can?

>>322668163
Oh look it's this again.

>People have different opinions on what constitutes acceptable editing and get really mad at each other despite the person who gave them the contract clearly being totally fine with it.

Also you know, people thinking mass media is art.

>>322672435
>her job is literally censoring Japanese voices with her own anyways
I don't think you know what censoring means

I made this same thread awhile ago when the interview and I actually got banned for six days because apparently posting a source link is "advertising"

Fuck the mods here, seriously

>>322681679
Because reading a bunch of Japanese memes/puns/etc no one gets is fucking retarded. I'd rather them adjust the joke to something applicable to the west than leave in something that means nothing to me and therefore waste my time

>>322681679
Because this is mass media where everything has to sell a gorillion copies to make any money. And money is the only thing about the game's existence that matters.

though as far as literature goes there's numerous theories, some which are based on science (on which there is still major debate) and some are philosophical and linguistic purely.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Sx7yttJm0I

Is an interesting interview with a very, very good localised/translator for mass market media, he did metal gear solid and I think shadow hearts 2/covenant.

>censorship and localization are mutually exclusive concepts

you don't have to be smart to be an actor

>>322681991
The argument you'll usually get is "maybe you'll be interested and learn more"

>>322681679

I don't know, maybe because Western culture is RIGHT, JUST, and MORAL, and Eastern culture is WRONG, UNJUST, and IMMORAL

>>322681991

>Because reading a bunch of Japanese memes/puns/etc no one gets is fucking retarded.

Well yeah that I understand. Localize what needs to be localized, I've done that myself. But changing something because there are people out there who will be offended by something different is retarded is a valid argument only for trying to make as much money as possible. I don't like it, but I understand that argument. Too many people pretend things NEED to be changed though, without even bringing money into the equation. I can't help but call that shit out.

>>322682287
But. It isn't. It's "this wouldn't fly over here."

>>322681505
>In the west dressing like a slut is considered dumb and gross
Only when it comes to video games. Dressing like a slut is glorified in the west when it comes to music, movies, books, general fashion, etc. Dressing like a slut in video games only gets shit on in the west because the west still views video games as nothing more childrens toys.

Even then

She's 13.

If I need to use more words than that there is no hope.

Also the glorified dressing like a slut is inherently incompatible with a game where you can dress people up as it's a celebration of independence and agency which is inherently not there in that kind of game but that's getting into philosophical arguments that I refuse to get into on /v/ because it'll just get dragged down to the lowest levels within seconds. (but it's core to why many feminists are totally fine with bayonetta and even think she's great)

Reality doesn't really matter for this. I could get into all sorts of conversations about the nature of how we perceive reality but I won't. All I will say is that because of how we in the west see things (and I won't comment about Japan, for all I know their mainstream is the same and this was only really aimed at anime otaku, I don't know that well) her being 13 makes it creepy.

>>322683204

Apparantly it never really had that view.

"While marriages at very young ages could and sometimes did take place, particularly for girls of high social status, it would be a mistake to see marriage below or around the age of puberty as the norm even for young noblewomen. . . . Emerging evidence is eroding the stereotype . . . [with] work on low- and lower-middle-status women [showing that] . . . a large proportion of the sample married between the ages of eighteen and twenty-two, [and] . . . showing that urban girls [in Yorkshire] tended to marry in their early to mid-twenties and rural girls . . . in their late teens to early twenties."

https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=mHscM7ofx_AC&pg=PA28&lpg=PA28&dq=hostiensis+sexual+capacity&source=bl&ots=pYW9OeSRHA&sig=2tXiGWAXKu_SyfYCAFEIJPQ2mAs&hl=en&sa=X&ei=J2_6UpWHGcSEygHnzYHwDA&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=hostiensis%20sexual%20capacity&f=false

Well that changes the argument I made >>322683690
even more different. Now you just don't really have historical evidence backing you up.

>>322683775
What about the people though?

>>322683921

Because the fictional ones can't speak up and defend themselves, they can only say what they were programmed to say, so someone has to defend them. Otherwise, we're just supporting rape.

>>322683690
You're right; reality doesn't matter here. It's all about the moral high ground some translator is taking because he/she is trying to shield us from these possibly dangerous images of a 13 year old fictional girl in a fictional future in a fictional world riding fictional robots and fighting fictional aliens.

It doesn't matters because what is and isn't real is beyond eroded to the western world. I'd suggest you read some basic post-modern introduction and the articles "the gulf war never happened" if you care at all about these ideas.

Since always, in the twitter they always do the "the news is only a pic but we're not putting the pic on the tweet pls open our website", and the youtube channel is even worse

>>322683627
The nature of relationships changed, specially for women.
It's no longer a choice the family makes for them, and the man isn't seen as "responsible" for the woman anymore, so more maturity is expected from the woman.

Also, in modern times people came to associate maturity with formal education, which surpasses biological maturity by almost a decade.

>mfw American culture is so fucked people are legitimately afraid of being attracted to sixteen year olds

Yeah, this. I remember years ago I was hanging out with a 20 year old friend, we were watching a movie, there was a sexy 17 year old in there, and he was telling me how guilty he felt because he wanted to plough her. I was quite surprised that anyone would feel guilty over finding a 17 year old girl sexy.

Unrelated but I remember seeing someone on Gamefaqs complaining about Tales of Xillia because Jude clearly wanted to bang Milla and their ages were five years apart.

>>322681860

Localization is literally soft censorship. If it wasn't, it would be called translation. All forms of censorship are bad.

It's a bad localization bordering on censorship.

>>322672435

Fucking this. I long for the world where Japan just releases their games natively with cheap, English subtitles and I can import my games without having to go through a middleman of prude Americans who don't understand the material they're translating telling me whats appropriate for me or not.

Birth, Marriage, and Death : Ritual, Religion, and the Life-Cycle in Tudor and Stuart England

18-20 seems to be the range that was most acceptable throughout.

the long and short of it is that she's a cool, strong independent character who is sexy and owns it. But they take some issue with the camera.

But after we broke up a couple friends found out we started dating when I was 17 and she was 14 and they called me pedo scum and stopped talking to me entirely. It's so fucked up, we went to school together and we both thought we loved each other for years. But because I'm a guy and I was a couple years older when we first met i'm apparently pedo scum

Well that's fine because they aren't real people. They are pixels on a screen. Are you saying that people who play shooters should feel remorse or guilt over all the enemy characters they gun down? Why won't anyone think of the pixels?

>>322685361
They never decide what they wear because they aren't real people; the character designer decides if they have established armors.

>>322685361
No fictional character possesses agency. They are not sapient. They cannot be oppressed, because they lack the capacity to recognize oppression. Whatever the character is wearing has no bearing on this fact.
So again, what is the problem with a fictional character in a bikini?

But they do, the way they're write determines what they'd actually wear, and you get to overwrite that. Thus they don't possess agency, while some do.

Ever wonder why the sun on their flag is red? It's because the Japanese perceive the sun as being red. If it looks yellow to them, they assume that they're exhausted and their eyes aren't working properly. So, saying "the sun is yellow" is just a way of saying "Man, I'm beat."

>>322686559
>But they do, the way they're written

You just contradicted yourself. They don't have agency because they were written to be a part.

>>322686559
>But they do

Have agency? No they fucking don't. Quit being retarded.

>>322686559
>the way they're write determines what they'd actually wear, and you get to overwrite that.
"What they'd actually wear" is a subjective opinion, and were it not, it would primarily be determined by how the character is written in-game.
If there was a situation where the player could choose to dress a character in certain way that explicitly made them uncomfortable, then you might have some point, within the context of the game.
But as far as I am aware that is not the case in Xenoblade, and again, it has no bearing on the fact that a fictional character is not capable of possessing agency, and at most can only appear to simulate it on the basis of how they are written.

Would you accept a bible that been slightly altered by Satan? no, you want the original print from god himself.

>>322687078

This is really interesting.

I would not mind a short TL note with that explanation at all in my games/anime along with the sun is yellow statement.

I don't understand why people would want to play/watch something from another culture without making every effort to indulge themselves into that culture at the same time? What is the point? I want to see life and the world from as many different perspectives as possible, I don't want my media to be perspective corrected back to fucking American every time.

>>322684957
There's times where you have to change things for the larger market. Kanji puns can't be translated, so do you translate it literally with a TL note or do you write in your own joke to get the same point across. The ideal translation gets the same point across, even if there are some changes from the literal translation.
I don't agree at all for removing/changing content because the western market doesn't like X thing. (Like portraying sex in media)

The thing the pro-censorship fags always gloss over or pretend doesn't actually exist is the fact that some people don't even care about the slutty outfits. You don't have to like something to defend it. For instance, I don't think fanservice is inherently bad. I can enjoy it myself sometimes, but it's just in too damn many things these days, it's spreading like an uncontrollable cancer in Japanese media and showing up in places it doesn't belong. I'm not saying it's morally reprehensible, it's just annoying. Like Fatal Frame. I don't think fanservice belongs in a horror game, but it's not forced, so I don't care. I'd still argue against the removal of the bikinis anyway even if I don't give a shit about them before censorship is the worse of the two by far.

That and I can into Nihongo, so it's not like the censorship of localized games affect me, but I still don't like it.

>>322687917

Yeah, TL notes like that are always interesting, though I understand why people try not to use them. I like my own translations to sound as natural as I can, I try not to break the flow, so I very rarely use TL notes. But I also like reading TL notes myself, so I completely understand people who make liberal use of them.

Because not every game is meant to be a cultural piece, and trying to make it into that ruins what the developers were going for.

>>322688819
>Because not every game is meant to be a cultural piece

Let me decide for myself.

>>322687606
Here's a little wisdom nugget for you. When you read a work of fiction, you never know what the author's intended meaning unless you read or watch an interview with them. You can infer, guess, hypothesize, speculate, come to YOUR OWN conclusion on what IT MIGHT BE but until the author actually says his you can't really know. This is in any language, including your same first language.

This is even something you have to do in high school, under the guise of, in America, English class.

It's why you have over the top theories like ash died in episode two or the zelda time line quarrels until the official time line.

Oh and 日本語は分かる。

I don't think anybody is really pro-censorship, just that you're being incredibly culturally clueless if you think a company whose primary market includes parents of small children, like NOA is going to let a representation of 13 year-old wear an outfit with underboob and a pube window.

>>322691164

What about the other changes, like removal of the bust-slider from main character creation? You can argue that Lin's costume changes are localization, because they were changed into something else. But bust slider was just removed, there is nothing to replace it.

>>322690785
Censorship is blocking something that's immoral or offensive. Americans don't consider Japanese language immoral or offensive - they just don't understand a word of it. It's not dubbed over for moral reasons, so it doesn't qualify as censorship.

Do you weebs have any idea how different the Japanese language is compared to English? There are lots of grammatical difference between the two, so much where translating a game straight into English would be full of sentence structure errors and run on sentences. Changing it to make more sense for another language, and keeping the original meaning in the localized version is NOT censorship. Only if it completely changes meaning because it's too offensive for other people is when it turns into censorship. Fuck off with your LOCALIZATION IS CENSORSHIP meme

Maybe some people prefer the Japanese voice actors? Unlike Western VAs, Japanese ones are often very active in media, and somebody might have followed one over several years.
Or somebody might just think that JP voices are better.

Western voice actors have a wider variety of voices and sounds. Japanese voice actors can hit different levels of emotion better.

>>322692934
What game is that script from?

I believe one of the main problems with localization these days is something that Ace Attorney team talked about a while ago.
First translator does very rough pass of the script fast, then to get it presentable it can go through up to four editing passes, and editors typically can't read Japanese.
It does make sense, because getting good translator is way harder than getting a good editor, and companies want to make most of their resources.

>>322691797

How about because a video game is a representation of reality so people swimming in a game would wear the same shit people swimming in real life would? Technically you animate a character to swim wearing 8 layers of fur coats but why would you if you are going for realism?

Lin is not even a human. She's a robot. There is nothing to fuck under her bikini, just metal gears. Maybe the designers wanted to represent a type of character that likes to wear what is comfortable regardless of the context of the clothes or the situation around her. Or maybe it's just fucking hot and bikini's are an acceptable form of pseudo underwear that you can wear outside. I have literally seen women walk around in bikini's before in real life where I live, and I am not even close to a beach. It's not sexualization, it is reflection of reality.

>the artist said this, but I know he really meant to say this other thing that isn't even close, because I can read the artist's mind and it's better this way

>it opens the game up to a wider audience
Doubt SJWs would use this argument when they take out gay or effeminate characters to "open it to a wider audience". They don't care about art, they care about politics.

>>322694621
Why?

Only applies to real life child porn by any reasonable country's definition.

>>322694621

You still have not explained the connection between child porn and Xenoblade Chronicles X or any character within it though.

In the united states of america, lolicon is only considered child porn if the art is depicting an actual real child. Because unlike what you want, there is no punishment for thinking things.

Video games, comics, animated videos, and other types doujinshi are not child porn even if there is a fictional 6 year old getting railed in every hole.

No it's not. Jesus Christ that's why unenforced laws are shit, people are completely ignorant how stuff works, even though it's 5 minutes of googling away.

>>322696087

Eh, loli is a real grey area in the states. It's pretty much legal on a federal level, but state laws trump federal laws apparently, so you may or may not get fucked for being found with it depending on your state. Hell, I live in a state where it's supposed to be completely legal, but a DA in a nearby city had someone who drew loli in exchange for cigarettes in prison charged with drawing child porn and added several years to his sentence. But he's an asshole who liked throwing people using medical marijuana legally in jail just because he could.

This has nothing to do with ratings or ESRB or ratings in general.

Nintendo of America is extremely controversy averse, they believe if Soccermom #397 finds out that the company she uses as a virtual babysitter developed (remember, Monolith is a part of Nintendo now) a game where a 13 year old wears this >>322684002 they'd throw a fit.

And it's not like there's no precedent for it. Objectionable game content was making the news circuit as recently as the first when Mass Effect decided to include a PG-13 sex scene. And that game was rated M.

>But controversy sells

It sells to people who buy games for themselves, Nintendo wants to maintain a market that includes people who buy games for other people.

And people will grow up and realize that not all games are for children. Just like all books aren't for children, all cartoons aren't for children, all movies aren't for children.

The only reason people throw a hissy fit right now is because video games are a young media.

Why is it so hard for localizers to know if fans want a loyal port? They could have changed age of the characters if they wanted to.

>>322695023
you realize that the oceans in xenoblade x are filled with dangerous monsters so there wouldn't be any reason for the characters to use the swimsuits in the first place

So is the Beach but you don't see idiots trying to stay away from it.

Secondly, Not every part of the fucking Ocean in Xenoblade X has Monsters that want to kill you, especially when half of them don't give a flying fuck about you.

You're trying to force the concept of will onto something. That doesn't make it a fact.

I don't know what literature you've read that has brainwashed you into this kind of thinking.

>>322699149
I really miss when porn actually meant something specific. That goes for most words actually. It may have always been the case but recently I've noticed just how many words come here to die and become nearly meaningless.

"People are calling it censorship. I call it a paycheck and thus will say anything my Nintendo overlords bid me."

>>322700720
you just said that you were getting a huge ass tity monster killed so you weren't talking about the kid

>>322699149
>what is context?
those kids are out there with their families, for their own enjoyment. they are background to anyone else's lives.

creating and designing an young girl character, and then intentionally putting her in a sexy outfit in a medium designed to entertain young men is the exact opposite. that loli character did not just just "happen" to be in that swimsuit.

AND, if the designers decide that some images are appropriate for some audience, while others are not, IT IS NOT CENSORSHIP. If I decline to shout FUCK in a crowded church, it is not because the churchgoers are censoring me. its because I am not a fucking retard and want to get along with people.

>>322700135

The only will that exists is the will of the creator. You're forcing the concept of will on the character to make it seem like it's something that should be there. It's pretty ass-backwards.

Iunno, it's lighter and i can imagine that it's easier to swim in than a swimsuit. You can also magically wear the swimsuit visually while wearing power armor mechanically because it's a game

Fanservice does not equal porn.

Something being made to be attractive doesnt mean the same thing as "being made to jerk off to."

Ill give you a hint, if the only goal for them was to make something to jerk off to, Japan has a pretty big industry dedicated to just that. Video games are not that industry.

>>322701801


Go to the beach, you see teenagers in bikinis.


Now let's say there was a law forbidding showing any skin to the point where every underage girl is required to wear shorts and a shirt.

>>322701801

>>322702141


No, they're literally not different in that context.


You can wear a fucking bikini outside of a beach and not get fucking arrested for child porn.
