Brand new outfits? Aren't they the ones that were censored? Fans got up in arms about when the devs changed them a little bit? Well whatever the case, they should never have been censored in the first place. Glad the "original outfits" are back, so it seems. I personally don't care about the outfits per se, but I do care about censorship in the games industry and I hate it when it happens.

Huey_My_D_Long23d ago

Jury is still out on it being censorship but ok

lucian22923d ago

The outfits were Def changed that's one thing for sure. And and in a lazy way.

Aside from that, yes there are new outfits including two new ninja ones that weren't in game at all

CrimsonWing6923d ago (Edited 23d ago )

It’s so weird right? Like their “intended designs,” but then give the uncensored variations? Whatever it is everyone can now have their cake and eat it, too now.

But yea, straight up censorship and a lazy “reasoning” behind it. This all could’ve been avoided had they just done this in the first place… but all’s well that ends well.

lucian22923d ago

i think in the end it helped with sales; bad press is good press as they say

blackblades22d ago

This couldve been avoided if they made the changes before the game went gold. Next time Stella blade 2 make sure the game is the way they want it before it goes gold. Also the multiplatform game gatcha I guess I'm curious how that is going to go. Considering how nikke is on mobile how stella is on console

blackblades23d ago

The OG ones arent back these new ones are recolored versions of the OG ones. Meaning they didnt change them back. They were probably intended to be that way like the creator said.

lucian22923d ago

then version 1.0 wouldnt have been different

CrimsonWing6922d ago (Edited 22d ago )

That really makes no sense considering they made variations of suits. These suits are literally variations of the pre-patch original designs and again think of it this way, if those previous suits were always the “intended design” why the huge push back or need for “internal discussions” when they could’ve easily reversed the changes with a patch if they always intended to release the original “unintended design” versions later? It makes absolutely no sense, so what, these are the “unintended versions?”

I mean the guy even said in an interview the changes in the patch were going to upset people, so…. Why would you do that when you released the game knowing not everyone would be able to do the update patch? All these people without internet are getting the unintended designs?

It’s all super weird. What I think happened is the “internal discussions” was with Sony and they got Sony just to ease up. One thing’s for sure they can’t patch these up and say the changes were always the intended final design…

@Crimson
Where did they say there were internal discussions about the designs you feel were censored?

“At the same time, Kim also understands that this answer will not convince all users, hence, they are discussing the issue internally and will be coming up with a solution soon.”

That help, bud?

And I’ll let you dwell on this thought, if the outfits were never intended to be a design… why are they now? Also, why are they the variants of the censored outfits, uncensored? Keep in mind these were the outfits released on the disc sent to retail where the developers knew not everyone can do the updates to patch them, sooo… Super weird, if you ask me.

I wish I was as gullible as some people. I always wondered how politicians can think they can get away with bullsh*ting people with PR talk… I now know why they think they can get away with it.

Thank you, we dads love this.

How long do y'all reckon before the inevitable Nier crossover outfits make their way onto Eve? I love this game.

Playing it now! The game is pretty big. I like that there is a lot of hidden stuff. It is a lot like Nier Automata more than I thought. But this game has some verticality to it. Recommended

This game reminds me of when my daughter used to play the Bratz dress-up game on the Gamecube.

VersusDMC16d ago

Pretty sure in the bratzs game you also finish off a boss by cutting off it's arms and impaling it to a wall. Both games are well know for their violence. 🙃🤣

thesoftware73016d ago

People seem more excited about the cute dress-up outfits rather than the actual game.

CrimsonWing6916d ago

@thesoftware730

So, games with alternate costumes like fighting games, games like Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, hell let’s say the Souls-like games when you’re choosing cool looking sh*t for builds and crap ton of other games that do this are like the Bratz game?

Like, why in the f*ck do people get all douchey when a game is about titillation. You play Halo or anything? Do you like “dressing up” Chief? I guarantee you this wouldn’t be a response for Street Fighter 6 season pass costumes. I enjoyed running through RE4 Remake with different costumes, not once did I think it’s “dress-up.”

I know you thought you were being clever with the snarky comment, but instead you just sh*t the bed with it. Devil May Cry must also be like Bratz with the alternate outfits… Geezus, sometimes I just can’t with the comment diarrhea some people spray on this site.

Elda16d ago

Absolutely no comparison.

thesoftware73016d ago

They both have a lot of cute outfits with which to dress up your avatar.

DarXyde16d ago

I'm guessing because it's another game that you wanna play, but your pride won't let you...?

thesoftware73016d ago

So?...err, I mean No!

Nah, my backlog is too big at the moment, and the demo was just ok for me.

I won't get it anytime soon unless my daughter wants to play a dress-up video game again. It would be kind of strange as she is 28 years old, lol.

Hypertension14016d ago (Edited 16d ago )

@thesoftware730
You backlog doesn't seem to be an issue when Xbox release a game.

Tust me, this game is amazing. It's better than anything Xbox has put out this generation.

The demo is barely scratching the surface.

thesoftware73016d ago

@Versus,

No, but I think that sounds awesome because the Bratzs sucked, so dismembering them in a game may have been fun.

Must be weird for Xbox fans to see Sea Of Thieves at number 4 on the NPD charts

ravens5216d ago

The "best selling" game!?!? Lol. The narratives, I swear.

PhillyDonJawn16d ago

No it's more funny than weird. Cause ps fans swore SoT was bad and didn't interest them at all 😂

helicoptergirl16d ago

Everyone knows a game can change in 6 years. The beta testers on xbox one are apparently laughing so you tell me. Well the definitive edition players look to be enjoying themselves. Thanks for your service

PhillyDonJawn15d ago

"A game can change in 6 years" 😂 no game ever.

lodossrage2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

@PhillyDonJawn

Xbox fans said SOT was bad too when it first game out. (genuine fans, not the people that defend no matter what)

It was panned because it was so barebones and felt unfinished.

And a game CAN change over time. How many updates did SOT get between the initial Xbox release and this PS release? Need proof, look at the SOT wiki

https://seaofthieves.fandom...

Look at all the updates and seasons that came BEFORE the Playstation released. The game is changed A LOT

CrimsonWing6917d ago

Well, would you look at that Sony! Guess there’s an audience after all for this stuff.

JEECE17d ago

I wonder where the change from "NPD" to "Circana" ranks on the chart of lamest rebrands? And yes I know it changed awhile ago it just annoys me every time I see it.

anast16d ago

People like this game, despite the big puritan push against it.

Hugodastrevas16d ago

Stellar Blade deserves it, it's just a gorgeous well-optomized working right out of the box game. Would plat all over again.
