First off

 

 

Meaning you more than likely will find an opinion that offends you in this thread. So, exit out if you are easily butthurt.

 

Now, this thread is to express opinions you have that aren't exactly popular.

There will be no debates or arguing.

Post your opinion and move on.

You may post an opinion in response to another, but no full blown arguing and trying to convince someone that your opinion is 'right'

This is not a thread for debate, just for opinions.

So keep calm and carry on.

ALSO DO NOT USE OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE WHEN EXPRESSING YOUR OPINION

KNOW YOUR BOUNDARIES

 

 

As for my unpopular opinion:

 

I believe that women should be allowed to wear whatever they want, hell the should be able to shirtless if guys can too, and not be called sluts. They should be able to sleep with who they want, WHEN they want. They aren't hurting you or anyone else so why make them feel bad and call them sluts.

It's not your life and it isn't your business. No need to make someone feel horrid.

Nowadays, all video games that are based on films, television series and animated series are terrible.

Books on the other hand...

Books as well.

"The Witcher 2" renders that statement false.

This website needs a more serious tone.

It's honestly super annoying when people say FF7 is overrated

"Amazing Spider-Man" and "Disney Infinity" would like a word with you.

Eh, not really. I think it's fine the way it is.

I kinda liked it better when the RL and personal threads were separate

It's honestly super annoying when people say FF7 is overrated

Agreed. Whether it's true or not, just the words "FF7 is overrated" are enough to cause a ruckus. It's a pain in the ass. It's one of the few things where I feel that people should just shut the hell up about it. Seriously. If you've got something to say about FF7, keep it to yourself because it will just cause everyone great irritation.

Well, if they're going to say it's overrated, they should at least give some legitimate reasons as to why they think so. Give me a reason to respect your opinion.

Derp, I just realized I'm probably not addressing the right thing, but oh well. This is my take

BTW RoxSox I love your sig

Yeah, it's not about having legitimate reasons for thinking so, or about respect for opinions. More about not even bringing it up to begin with, because it's such a tochy subject that it's sure to just cause shit.

 

And thank you, it amuses me as well.

Console wars have become one of the most obnoxious things ever. I'm so tired of people trolling each other about which next gen console is better. WHO CARES? PLAY THE CONSOLE YOU WANT TO PLAY AND LEAVE US ALONE. YEESH.

 

Also obnoxious is the PC master race. I mean, whenever there's a discussion on a console on say, IGN or something like that, some random neckbeard will come on and say "oh hay the PC iz bettur!!!1!!11!!!!!!" WELL GOOD FOR FREAKING YOU. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT CONSOLES, NOT THE PC. YOU'RE ADDING NOTHING TO THE CONVERSATION, SO SHUT UP. I feel like I may have mentioned this before, but whatever...

Well, I guess competition is a part of human nature.... or, in the case of the interwebz, senseless arguing and flame wars.

Also, concerning PCs: Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only thing I think they really have to "support" their argument is better graphics. It's not like a PC improves the story or gameplay. Besides, we all know that you don't need high-end graphics to have a beautiful game.

Well, it can improve the gameplay actually, because you can do mods and stuff like that. Which a lot of people have done with various games, and come up with pretty sweet stuff. Fun facts. 

 

That being said, I still hate it when they bring their master race crap onto a random thread.

Oh yeah, I forgot about mods. Those are cool and all, but not really enough to warrant being a "master race". They're just fun little extra stuff, and they're not needed in order to enjoy the game.

The KH series needs less censorship. The amount of censorship that Square Enix is being forced to use in the series is not natural for them.

But its a Disney collaboration so the censorship is much needed in the series.

Not really no. I'm part of the FF audience. I want the censorship for KH.

The "censorship" bothers you that much? I can't even think of any point where the "G-ratedness" of the games doesn't flow naturally, except for maybe in Port Royal. And that's barely noticeable in the American version. I think you're the only one getting worked up about it. 

 

And why would a lack of censorship appeal to the FF audience? I'm a FF fan and I don't even care. KH isn't aiming for the FF fans anymore. It's aiming for the KH fans who love it for what it is. And if anything, I'm glad it's kept "censored", if that's really the word you want to use for it. KH is an amazing example that you don't need excessive violence, swearing, and/or sexuality to make a quality game. 

 

And out of curiosity, what kind of "non-censorship" would you want in the games?

The censorship in the series is unbelievably overdone. Removing one second of flames being depicted on Axel's body in Kingdom Hearts II was not even slightly necessary, the mild swear word that Axel gave in the original Chain of Memories did not need to be removed from his dialogue in the PS2 remake, and censoring Aqua's clothing was not necessary either. Those are just a few examples.

The Final Fantasy series has always had less intense censorship. What is the harm in Kingdom Hearts trying to go in accordance to this?

What I want is simple; an occasional mild swear word, at least one scene per game that depicts blood, and more intense death scenes.

I know that I am not the only one who is "getting worked up about it"; there was a thread about the subject that was created the other day.

I don't know about you, but I didn't look at Axel's death scene and freak out because he wasn't on fire. It didn't hurt my experience in the slightest to play through Re: Chain of Memories and not hear Axel swear. 

 

And about that stuff that you want to add: what could that possibly add to the game? How would that help the story, gameplay, or anything? It would seem out of character to hear Sora or Riku or Kairi swear. And what would blood add to the game? There's rarely blood in Final Fantasy, if I remember right. And more intense death scenes? I feel like any death scene that's actually in the series seems fine in terms of intensity. And again- I don't recall any deaths in FF (except maybe Sephiroth's) that are more intense than deaths in KH. 

 

And what topic are you talking about? Could I get a link?

I think it's funny when female character's designers hang common sense and wear skimpy clothing for nothing more than fan service.

 

I mean, if I planned on going on an adventure that involved exploring anywhere remotely new to me, I'd be wearing something that makes sense, like long pants and sleeves to keep sticks and bugs and crap from scratching me and getting all over the place, not to mention maintaining an agreeable body temperature when transitioning between the sun and the shade.  I'd take the protection over a fancy bikini thing any day.

Either way, removing the fire was a questionable and unnecessary move.

 

I said mild swears; along the lines of what Axel said in the original Chain of Memories. Adding blood would make some scenes look more dramatic, and would make them have more of an impact on the player. The death scenes are not particularly intense. The deaths of Vexen and Zexion were about as intense as they get, and even then, Vexen's death scene was censored in the PS2 remake of Chain of Memories.

what'chu talkin' bout? heck I'd wear Fran's outfit just because it's comfy.

Is that not the comfiest looking outfit you've ever seen?
