You'd think they'd want to avoid alienating fans since it was such a massive bomb in Japan, but I guess you can't equate Nintendo with logical thought.
:lol I would have never notice that. The whole censorship sucks but frankly the age nor outfit changes doesn't bother me. I am more curiously why Nintendo seems to hate binkins...It was, Nintendo Life for whatever reason misread the statement. And the changes simply don't fit what Atlus has done in the past while they perfectly fit what Nintendo has done.
Here's the dungeon that they refer to in the OP

If they're such "small insignificant things", why bother to change them in the first place?Who cares. These small little insignificant changes isn't gonna make the game turn to shit.

Amazing, that people care to this degree. lol
I've seen a few of that channels videos and it has an interesting focus on showcasing how games change in different regions....there's just a certain creep factor behind some videos.https://twitter.com/patrickklepek/status/725455568144470016

Some of the things are questionable, but I can't blame them for not localizing the DLC. Taking into account the small amount of units this is going to move, I don't even want to think of the financial no-event that the DLC would be.
"...Rather than the type of underwear that 17 year old girls typically wear."
Wow, That's a lot of pretty creepy undertones he's managed to cram into a single sentence.

As someone who has actually played that game, you're still getting most of your anime cleavage. Tsubasa still looks like below in her Carnage form and the booty is still in her transformation sequence.
But if you have issue with any changes? Yeah, you probably should've been prepared for disappointment, given recent Nintendo titles.
What do you mean by this? Nintendo is still publishing the game. #FE probably isn't one that Atlus would have wanted to publish or even create on their own.
If I recall, Nintendo seemed to be prepared for the game to be Rated M. I guess once they saw there was a way to reduce it to T they asked Atlus to do some changes. I personally don't mind, since so far it just seems like an outfit change and a minor age change.
I'm not saying they should have dumped the entire project on Atlus, I'm saying they should have framed it more as an Atlus thing. Atlus releases stuff like this all the time and everyone is fine with it. They did a good job with recognizing Atlus in the last Nintendo Direct, but if you just followed Atlus and not Nintendo you might not even know this game exists. I know Nintendo is the publisher but there's not even a tweet or anything on Atlus' end, which you'd think would be a good way to reach the audience for a game like this. The game is made by Atlus and makes use of Atlus IP but Nintendo keeps a white knuckled grip on the game.
If NoA/NoE had concerns about certain content in this game, leaning on Atlus could resolve a lot. They didn't even think this would be an appropriate time to put Atlus' logo on the front of the box because they want people to look at this and think 'Nintendo' first. It's not a thing they have to do, but even Activision has the courtesy to let people know who made the latest CoD.
You don't want to give Atlus money for small changes to a game they developed? What kind of absurd brand of self-righteousness is that?
It's a promo cut.There's a hot springs dlc for this game too. God, this is going to be a FE tradition now isn't it?

I think if one follows Atlus, they are a lot more likely to know about the existence of #FE compared to those who follow Nintendo. #FE is exactly in the wheelhouse for that fanbase and, honestly, I think Nintendo needs to lean a lot harder on the Fire Emblem connection to get their fans to know about it. We already see NoA doing that with the recent trailer, with them actually expanding "#FE" into "Fire Emblem" right in the English trailer when that wasn't done at all in the Japanese ones.
they cut it :/

Changes were expected, and not at all surprising. But to go and change a thematic dungeons design is crossing such a ridiculous line. Not to mention them even having a new Japanese line(s) recorded to accommodate further changes. It's simply a new low in localization.
You are absolutely missing the point if you think it's about wanting cleavage.
Not fully confirmed yet.
This is where I think they hit the wall though, I'm not sure flashing "Fire Emblem" in the trailer is really gonna convince anyone who isn't already on board for everything else in this game. The setting, gameplay, tone, etc is all wildly different.
I'm also not suggesting Atlus take over the marketing for this game. I don't know what I'm saying to make you think I'm speaking in absolutes. It's not like it's unprecedented for a dev to have some mild social media or promo presence for a game. Nintendo has a partnership with Atlus, why not make use of it? That's all I'm getting at.

I've mentioned this before, but editing the content in this way doesn't somehow let Nintendo off the hook for allowing this sort of stuff to exist on their console anyway. The original intentions of the creators still exist. And they did not intend for it to be changed.
If you want to play the real version of this game, the way the creators wanted it, you have to play the Japanese version. Simple as that.
So confirmation of things already confirmed from trailers and speculation based on rumors with no confirmation yet. The news is disappointing in general and fuck NoA and all of that, but nothing new here really as far as i can tell.
idk man if she's 18 now that's fucked upNegligible changes as usual.
ah, the two fans who have their panties in a twist over having their panties messed withYou'd think they'd want to avoid alienating fans since it was such a massive bomb in Japan, but I guess you can't equate Nintendo with logical thought.
"You don't understand, they're taking away my barely-pubescent girls in bikinis!"

The dungeon's theme is intact, according to what I've played and the other poster who actually played the game.
Are they though? :/ cus it seemed like the localisation changes had literally 0 negative effect on Fates' sales. I feel like there is a certain amount of people who are either not putting their money where their mouth is, or were never planning on putting their money down in the first place.I hate to say it, but that's exactly what I mean. The demographic that want this game ARE the ones who will make a fuss over that.

I guess this is more niche though.

I hate to say it, but that's exactly what I mean. The demographic that want this game ARE the ones who will make a fuss over that. If this were, say, Splatoon, any griping would be a tiny tiny niche. Here it's pretty much the majority of the potential buyers.
I assume the 'theme' change here means that clothing the character more means taking away from the blatant gravure references. Personally, I wouldn't lose sleep over it, but I could see why it'd irk some people, especially the demographic into the game.
I don't get who this is for.
The game is Japanese to the max. No one who would have been offended by anime fanservice was ever going to purchase this game anyway. And removing or minimizing it clearly is a negative for hardcore JRPG fans, aka the only people who care about this game or even know it exists.
Are you sure? Haven't seen most of the replies here, but in other sites a majority of the comments I've seen are people outraged or disappointed.The minimal amount of fans buying this game aren't the type typically offended by this type of stuff.

I don't think that's what that user is saying. What they're saying is entirely valid, actually. Who do you think the target audience for #FE is for, in the wake of all this?
Unneeded as the changes were, I feel reactions to this are melodramatic and overblown. But if you're going to make a fuss about not having your anime panties, please do so without harassing innocent Atlus and Nintendo employees.
I'm making fun of the people feeling the need to remove things "for the greater good".
