Topic: Xenoblade Chronicles X - OT

Wait, is that really true? You got a source? That's absolutely absurd. It's a completely optional feature.

My patience for puritans who go around affecting other people's stuff is wearing thin.

GameXplain posted a video about it.

Why are we so afraid of mother freaking BOOBS!?

...They even jiggle in Xenoblade Chronicles! (seriously, couldn't stop looking at Sharla all the time, lol) Or did they remove that in X as well? lol

A game with this much customisation and not being able to customise your boobs is OUTRAGEOUS!! lol. I guess i'll go with the tiny old pervy man character. It'll save quite some time creating a character by not having to worry about the perfect boob size!

Yeah, what if I was a flat chested woman who wanted to recreate myself? Or like you, recreate an anime character? Japanese people could, but not us? WTF

If this wasn't from Nintendo, the option would still be there. Saints Row had a bust customizer (or Sex Appeal as they called it), no one batted an eye. This is Nintendo being prudes.

Senran Kagura: Deep Crimson has it over here and it's on the freakin' 3DS...lol

I didn't know that.
This just makes even less sense then.

Hoping there's a way to get them to add it back in via a patch or something. :c
(or just do it via DLC like Deep Crimson, lol...just add in more than that, though)

They should add a shop in New LA called 'Diversity' where you can get a boob job done. It should obviously cost a lot, even more than a Skell. But seriously, seeing the standard bust size they might as well call it 'New Kyoto'.

Nintendo took out the boob slider because they don't wanna deal with the inevitable articles trashing them about having a boob slider. Heck, Capcom did some censorship in Street Fighter V recently. They don't wanna deal with the drama. I don't blame them. Companies like Polygon would've trashed Nintendo for having a boob slider with articles.

My favourite example of a brainless puritan trying to scare people away from sexiness was a guy on the radio once who genuinely said "we don't think breasts are suitable for children". I have to wonder if he realized what he'd said afterwards.

@Blast: Yeah, imagine the headlines: Gamers can adjust their characters breast size!
Thank goodness NoA intervened... Close one...
@Dezzy: Ahaaa, so that's why we have substitutes for breast milk! It all makes sense now.

To me, this only really changes WHO on the internet I will want to see punched in the throat for being a whiny *****. Well ok, that award goes to Fire Emblem purists, but still...if anything Polygon lucked out today since they don't get to embarrass themselves.

My reaction finding out boob slider was in the game: "ok..."
My reaction finding out boob slider was taking out of the game: "ok..."

shrugs

I don't like censorship or puritanism.

On the other hand, I honestly don't care about a boob slider.

So I don't know how to feel.

Oh god, Fire Emblem: Fates is going to get torn apart, isn't it?

Well, I just hope that Nintendo is pleased that their removal of the boob slider will increase the game's sales in America from 90,000 to 90,026.

Oh wait, no it won't, because a boob slider wouldn't be mentioned in market material anyway lol.

All player character voices:

On a cooler note, previews are starting to roll in and Eurogamer loves it.

GameXplain's Derrick also had strong impressions, and sorry Blast, but he singles out Lin as the best character and basically says "Elma's alright, I guess."

I'm not reading any previews or watching any more gameplay footage of XCX. Lol I'm already sold on the game. I don't wanna get spoiled or burnout. So... I'm waiting for launch!!!

Really, though. I'm all for the decision to not have a preteen girl prancing around with undertit and a g-string, but changing the character creation system is daft. The existence of different sizes of boobs is not sexual exploitation.

That said, I'm still stoked.

This was a fantastic read. Thanks for sharing.
