On Censorship (Gamer Edition)…
So, apparently censorship means something wholly different in this day and age.
But ya know what? Okay. Language is an ever changing thing, and definitions shift over time. So let’s just get over that. If our society has decided that censorship means “any change made by a creator to try and make their work have more widespread appeal,” so be it.
But… why does it seem to be that all the cries of “censorship” specifically have to do with the push for less scantily clad women in video games?
Is this really the hill gamers want to make their stand on? Especially when it pertains to 13-year olds with bikini costumes altered to cover more? Is… that really the line you’re going to draw in the sand?
Or lingerie outfits for characters ostensibly locked in a horrific struggle for their lives and sanity?
Is this really what we want to define censorship as in the future?
Because, well, it doesn’t speak very well for you, even if you think your motives are pure.
