Look people being able to cast magic doesn't change that people don't do that shit to each other. All the damn thing is missing is the MC whispering "now put the location on your skin so it's smoooooth for me." IT'S FUCKING CREEPY.
Yeah Nintendo should take responsibality on Kotaku's reporting anything out of their ass...
And at any rate it's possible they might want to feed on the controversy.
There is dialouge that units only say when u are petting them but most of it is just reactionary stuff like "You surprised me" or "You're suppose to do this to kids"
I was under the impression that there was a lot of dialogue from the petting minigame.

can I still do this
I completely forgot this feature lol
A silly and harmless feature where fully clothed individuals blush slightly when poked with a stylus. It's not something that interests me but I'm glad we're still getting a (relatively) complete product that hasn't been cut in any dramatic fashion.
That being said, I wish the special edition was available. I don't want to buy one of the retail versions when there's a three-in-one version out there.

Keep your expectations in check, that didn't happen with Xenoblade X.
I really don't think anyone will really know until the game is out, since I can't imagine any outlet going back and forth between the Japanese and English versions with a fine tooth comb to see if all the dialogue has been retained in My Room. That we've gone from "nope, not happening at all" to this would suggest that there's more of it in there than less of it, I would think.

Kind of wish they took the blushing away from the portraits when we're just talking to them in our room. It's really weird, especially when they're still at C support or whatever.
It's doomed to AO. Being able to touch human skin, even virtual, even just touching the face gently, is strictly the territory of grown adults.The reverse salt is going to be insane. Nobody had S supported yet so nobody knew for sure. Not like this will actually be controversial. I already said the game would probaby receive a (very hard) T regardless.
Now?
The dialogue was still there even when the petting minigame "wasn't".
I can't shoot lightning out of my ass and I can't touch my comrade's faces in real life? Well golly gee. Let me have my videogame experiences, thanks.
Face/off is actually pretty hilarious and your example made me want it even more.

Oh, don't worry, they're rock-bottom regardless.
And I'm in Europe anyway, so I get to wait while the US folks work out what's actually in the game and what isn't, before even worrying about what's been inexplicably changed in the EU English version.
I'm sure there are many games within the genre that will fit your needs. But to make assertions that face petting is what a serial killer would do is just absurd. Again, I don't care about this feature but the attitude towards video game features offending people is hysterical. I just hope you're as valiant about real world issues as you are about this.

Wait you mean this doesn't happen to the people you bring into your room in real life??
Jokes aside, tbh I was ok when they said they took it out but oh well. At least it doesn't happen with every single conversation.

So if the next donkey kong country let you rape the crocodiles, but it was optional, you'd be cool with it?
You're seriously comparing this with rape?
If you said that I could pet Donkey Kong's face I would have violently agreed. Why even bring up rape like this?
I WANT THIS TRAIN TO STOP
That said the way it sounds like they split the difference is really weird here; so they cut out the face rubbing when you invite people in, but they left it in for waking up your partner as well as blowing on them when they get out of the bath (which is the first time I'm hearing about this)? My takeaway from this is Nintendo doesn't endorse casual rubbing, but rubbing with a dedicated partner is okay.

What in the hell is going on with games these days?
Dude, touching a face isn't rape
No I wouldn't be cool with, but I wouldn't buy nor play the game. However, we both that's a silly what if. Do you think face petting leads to rape? If yes, I don't think you should be playing video games.
This type of response doesn't breed worthwhile discussion because rape isn't even relevant to this thread.

It's just a Video game.
You aren't doing anyone any favours.
Hmm, wonder if I should throw in Hitler yet. Goodwin's law must never upheld. Now I need to figure out how.

Good luck finding that in any kind of thread like this.
Can't wait for the game to release so we can find out what it actually is and how often it happens. If it's the full thing for your SO or of its just for 1 event.
This has been one enjoyable ride.

Because it's not worth it. They probably removed or reduced this minigame because its stupid. Normal process in late localizations to fix some game flaws.
A video game with enough things that I think will greatly hinder my enjoyment of it.
I hardly partake in threads like this for this exact reason, but I have nothing else to do before my meeting starts in 50 minutes lol

It is an extreme example, but the point made was people shouldn't be complaining about this.
"I don't care about this feature but the attitude towards video game features offending people is hysterical"
So, it seems there actually is a line. Where is that line? Well as it happens I draw the line at creepy shit like touching faces.
So disagree if you want, but lets not pretend it should be a non issue to everybody.

Time heals all wounds...
Nah, that's too tame.
There are games that already exist with worse features. Lines have already been crossed and the world is still in one piece.
I don't see how this should be a great source of offense or fear, FPS games does not breed shooters. Why would we believe otherwise for other types of games with weird features?
It's just video games people, you have the choice of what to play and buy.
