Nice.
Did you see it for yourself or did you just hear/read about it?
Chrom better not be censored
@_@
There doesn't seem to be anything there to censor.

It's because Tharja's hands are either too small or drawn awkwardly. NoA is just covering up badly drawn hands!
They're so smart! What a great way to fix a drawing without fussing too much about it!

You should write for Kotaku
Nipple-less anatomy is really weird. Censorship and whatnot, but it just looks way off. At least draw in some bandaids or something.

It's got swimsuit event cutscenes for the 2 most popular male (Chrom, Gaius) and female (Tharja, Cordelia) as determined by a poll in Japan.
NoA working hard to get their hardcore image back.
Oh yeah, definitely - I'm not questioning the quality of the game at all. I bought it around launch and I'm really excited to get around to it, but I've been busy playing other stuff. I've played 7 and 9 so far, and I'm eager to see where this one will end up.
I think the truth is somewhere in between - you don't hire the No More Heroes artist to come up with Tharja's design and have bikini DLC if you aren't at least partially aiming for the otaku crowd. But as you said, the marriage system is actually a cool addition gameplay-wise, so the two probably went together.

I bet there's a Hex waiting behind that cape if anything.
She's rubbing dat ass on a cape. It's a new fetish.

To be fair, only those last two are really problematic. The art in Awakening is fantastic, the marriage elements are a cool callback to 4 and also really fun in their own right, and there's nothing wrong with sex/whatever related conversations.
(Apparently) exclusively-female-character-showcasing DLC is way more stupid. Also Nowi.

You missed my response. The other guy answered what you literally asked, but what I think you meant was asking if it had cutscenes for the male characters at all.

Edit: Optional fanservice DLC are problematic?

Now it looks like my avatar is behind her, which makes it even more suggestive.
I thought it was a curtain.

How bizarre and prudish.
Yeah, that's definitely a cape. She's about to be taken from behind.

Gender-specifics aside (though there is male event CG apparently), relegating the super-fanservicey stuff to DLC is a-okay by me.
Although Nowi still creeps me out yo
Or are they going to make them even more suggestive?

Pic didn't even give me a semi. Brazzers does what Nintendon't
Yeah, even though Nowi is 1,000 years old, she still looks like one of those 6-year-olds from K-On.

Nowi's awesome because she's funny as hell

Oh, me? I'm not wrong, I think it's just the phrasing of their question didn't make them right.

You know now you mention it, if it is supposed to be a curtain it doesn't seem long enough to be doing that good a job at covering up someone changing.
axisofweevils
Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
Yep, it seems like you're right. Someone in the Nintendo Life comments translated based on the Japanese version featured in this video.

WNB either way.

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
Yeah, the censorship in this case is pretty counterproductive...
I married Nowi off to Gregor. Had to keep reminding myself she's older.

Reading his question literally, no you're not wrong.
But now he's run off with the idea that there are only fanservice cutscenes of the female characters, but that's not true at all.
Eh. I kinda wanted all the DLC for it at some point but since they were taking forever to come out I kinda gave up on that. Haven't touched the game since I beat it. Seems like I'm not missing much as the CG are not for characters I like.
Tharja had to be the worst thing in the game next to Nowi.

Uhm, wow. That's blatant, lol.

That's actually a lot better, then. I'm all for cheesecake, I'd just prefer more equal-opportunity cheesecake in video games.
And no, it's not "problematic" - it's just that if it really had just been "AND HERE'S ALL THE SEXY GIRLS IN BIKINIS" DLC then it would have been 100% megastupid. As it stands it's still sort of stupid, but it's at least not completely pandering to only one audience.
Actually what weirds me out is that she still acts like a child. Which is... really weird, since she looks like a child, and acts like a child, so you'd think the two would be congruous or whatever, but then you get to an S-level support and she's wearing that weird bikini-skin thing and it's like what are you doing
She's a great character aside from the fact that I feel like a creep even looking at her character sprite
I'm not sure if I like best FE waifu being portrayed in such a questionable manner. I mean, think of the children who will be mortified when they realize I saw her first.
On a more serious note, I don't see the point. The cape does seem to make the imagination run wild more, but on the other hand, the glistening...

I did that too. There was something in the back of my head constantly repeating "creeper creeper creeper creeper"
Yes, yes it does. Good job NOA.
