He looks like he belongs in Street Fighter 4
You have a strange definition of beautiful.
Rashid's beard looks too thick in this alt.
More reason for them to get upset about the few things they really care about in the game, I guess.
Overwatch as well. You see, I was right. The prudes are taking over!
lol Japan always thinking N-O looks Indian.
Is the fact that they're Japanese supposed to make their complaints more valid, or something?

domestic products being altered due to foriegn sensibilities? Even if they are exports it makes sense for them to be salty, and the fear is that the more drastic changes games like bravely second and fatal frame saw in the west could make their way into the domestic versions.
Street Fighter V is anything but a Japanese-exclusive product though, especially since it's not even out in arcades. If the Japanese being mad about SFV changes is supposed to somehow carry more weight than people anywhere else being mad, then is American anger about Overwatch also more righteous?
(I don't know if Star Ocean is supposed to be a worldwide release or not, so that one may be a different situation, apart from the fact that it is one of the silliest things I've ever seen anybody get angry over.)
Also, video games are far from the first medium to experience alterations to domestic products to suit foreign audiences. (See: Downton Abbey blatantly pandering to American audiences in one of the seasons after the show became a big hit in the US.)

the second sentence I wrote was "Even if they are exports". Japanese release of star ocean is like tomorrow or some shit. Worldwide is later this year. These japanese are salty because products made in their country are being altered due to foreign sensibilities. The corporations of course are making this decision on a worldwide reasoning (granted, I highly doubt they are being very analytical about it), but the Japanese themselves have no reason to give a shit about that.
So I'm not saying their view is more valid, I'm just saying that it is valid.
What happened with Overwatch?

Nothing important, really.
I agree. I'm just saying that I don't buy that just because there are Japanese people angry about it that I'm supposed to reconsider my position on the issue.
Any complaint about "censoring" SFV is dumb. The costumes for the women in this game are the most revealing in Street Fighter history to the point of stupidity like Laura looking like she's wearing a cartoon infant's pajamas with an open poop hatch. The slight repositioning of camera angles is nothing.

The butt slap was amazing, though.
And still in the game, what ever harm it did before, is still being done. Such a confusing censor.
Yeah, I actually miss that and believe it fit her character. If I were in charge of Mika's design, I'd put that back in but change her costume to something less like a slutty Halloween jester.
Yeah, I do think the butt slap on its own was fine, and it suited R. Mika's character. My main issues are the aggressive loading screen jiggling and the fact that Laura is just a real doll without the personality. (Though I will admit that I think much of the new cast is uninteresting character-wise. Maybe it's just because I don't know them as well as the mainstays? I dunno.)
Laura's personality is the worst. Just because that dialogue may work in Japanese doesn't mean it should be transliterated in English.
