CENCORSHIP: Perfect or overdone?(Mostly older games)
This high pitched report is about my opinions of censorship in Final Fantasy games I welcome your opinions (I am going to put this on my WEB SITE when I finaly make it!) Oh and no posts saying "It was all Woolys fault!" when I already told you it wasn't!
"I'll swear if I @$*%ing well like!!
Yes SWEARING should be taken out for kids (Cid from 7 managed to fit in a few swear words though!) but just "Bad" words are alright Replacing "Hell" with "Heck" is plain silly "Damn" is not a swear word AT ALL! so "Darn" is also a waste of time! and the less said about "Crap" becoming "Datt" the better!!
You can't say that! say *THIS!*
There are also parts of changing certain lines to altho most of the changes were quite memorible and funny ("How Dear you! You Howler!!") Some of them just didn't work! I also find it a bit weird that they conciderd "Final Heavan" to be cenordand and "Bum rush" to be ok! (BUM is a lot ruder than Heavan ok "Bum isn't a rude word but it is compered to heavan) Also in FF6 (And don't think I have a gudge! I like FF6 as much as the next guy!) The line:
Quote:
SOLDIER: You'll be executed tomorrow, anyway. You know too much about our troop movements, after all. Have a nice last night alive!
Was Removed and replaced with
Quote:
SOLDIER: I'd hate to wear shoes like THAT!
Come on! kids are going to have to learn about death sometime! why not now?
FF4: THE DEVOLOPER ROOM!
Yes! not many know this but there was actually a hidden room which gave you a chance to talk to some of the makers of FF4 :D but it got removed :mad2:
Why?
Give me a "P"
Give me an "O"
Give me an "R"
Give me an "N"
Giv me an "O"
What does that say?
ALL: PORNO!!
Yep! that's right the room was removed because of Porno (Note I hate Porno so don't think I'm sad for complaining) not porno it's self but REFRENCES to porno!
There was an Item called "Porno Book" that could be found in the devolopment room and when you selected it Cecil would read it (No you don't switch to Cecil's POV) and he's simply say "Hey I've gone blind!" (A joke to the roomers that porno made you blind) Any way I would have understood it if they removed the book or better still changed what it was and said (My freinds thought of renaming it the "Ending Script" and Cecil saying something like "What a shock!" or something) But no what do they do? THEY REMOVE THE WHOLE ROOM!! Now that anoyed me no end! One of the (Many) best parts of "Pokemon" was when you went to the "Programe Room" and if that had only 4 people just think how good the FF4 one would be Which had a lot more! Oh and while were on the subject of Porno a lesser known line from FF5:
Quote:
Butz: P, P, Pl, Play, "Playboy"....Damn it's not here!
Was removed for resonable reasons (Though they could have done something better than the random letters they replaced it with!)
Ok that's my little moan finished now it's your turn!

The correct quote is actually "I'd hate to be in your shoes tomorrow!" which makes a whole lot more sense. But I thought your interpretation of the quote was pretty funny, to say the least.
